Mistakes Of City People About Entertain.

Is It possible to entertain on g 500 a year?
Is the question that has been agitating
some Sun readers Of late. Some Of them
have declared that 1t is impossible TO do so,
while the others say they have solved
the difficulty by living In Brooklyn and
entertaining friends at clubs here In town.
The question was propounded to woman

and incomes for families in which the mis-
trees Of the home Is unable to look after the
details Of housekeeping herself.

tanning really means only the offering OF
ones hospitality. however great or small
it may be, to ones acquaintances and
friends, and the nearer one keeps to this idea
the more successful will be- the entert ain

Naturally the entertainment offered
must be adapted TO the size OF the income.
OF should be. but this il the rock upon which
so many wo,ild-be entertainers split. They
try to plan something beyond their means.
and after one or two attempts of this sort
they conclude that they cannot afford to
entertain at all.
THE most costly entertainment IL often
the least enjoyable. The first thing re-
quired is the true spirit Of hospitality, and
this is missing in too many Of our modern
homes, especially in New York. In smaller
cities the art OF entertainment fourishes
quite successfully and enjoyably and on
very small incomes. Little is spent on
decorations or the getting up of menus,
but the women Of the family plan and exc
cute most OF the arrangements themselves.
Here in New York conditions as to enter
tanning are very much mixed and, above
all. superficial. b yond that. In all cities
the principal idea seems to I've that one
should pay of cour;esies rather than that
one should offer hospitality.
There are houses which are opened
once or twice during a req son for mag
nifiN utly destinations balls and dinners,
and for the rest of the year are closed like
tombs. and this is an excellent illustra-
ton of the ideas of entertaining that pre-
vail In New York.
Those who do this kind OF entertaining
look upon it as a social duty. and those
who escape il congratulate themselves
that tho y are enabled to keep in the swim
on nothing u year. In New York enter

Great care should be taken in the laun-

goods will endure. There is no reason why
the dimity should lose its color II the blouse
be carefully Numbered.
Lingerie blouses will be worn far more
generally than hitherto. As they will be
used with the dressiest costumes, they
have become rivals OF the blouses that can
not be washed. To an appreciable extent
they have superse led them in popularity,
and their popularity is due to their beauty
quite as much as TO their practical adj
vantages.

OLD PEWTER IN Use.
II supplies Just the Right Note for Use In
the Country House.

Pewter is in high favor again. The
ancient platters and basins that long did
duty as plaques or else lay hidden on the
top shelves Of pantry closets are being
secured up and brought forward as notable
fruit dishes aud table centrepieces, and
pewter trays, tankards, tobacco jars and
beer sets are in demand.
Pewter has the merit OF never looking
common OF cheap while always looking
homely and useable. Hence IL fits ad-
mirably with the present taste for genuine
primitive furnishings. For the bungalow
or country house where silver appoint
ments might seem pretentious the WELL
modelled pewter articles just fill the need
The best pewter takes a high polish and
lasts for generations. Being costlier than
the nickelled or lacqucred wares, It is much
better liked by householders who value
unusual possessions.
trinkcts, incense holders and rose jars
Of ancient Chinese and Japanese make
are among late importatiOns. Some of
these are hammered out in designs similar
to those seen In ivory carvings.
Odd birds and serpents, mythical beasts
heads and celestial bodies distinguish this
old pewter work. Curious medallion
frames and mountings for tapestry pict-
ures are also among the pewter belong
ings brought from the East.
The modern pewter wares both In shape
and decoration are reproductions of old
styles. The deep, indented border and the
handles OF one pewter tray show holly
leaves and clusters of mistletoe intermingled
with curiously turned horns and quaint
faces. Goats heads form the handles of a
tobacco jar the cover and sides Of which
exhibit Flemish women in sabots. full
gathered petticoats and peaked bodices.
A beer set Of seven pieces on FURNISHED
tray has variety Of peasant scenes, the
same figures occurring in each, TO set OF
the tall covered pitcher and mugs. Other
pewter wares have mems visages and pagan
looking subjects.
Loving cups show fat friars and monks
taking meat and drink In homely comfort
or peasants disporting gayly. Odd ale hold
ers and liquor shakers are brought out in
pewter. and so are tea cadolies and cr1lmb
knives.
Among the most original pewter belong
ings are flower holders of Dutch pattern
with squat three handled bodies set up
on perforated stands. Candlesticks Of
primitive shape are also on the list, with
quantity turned saucers and handles that
suggest their being easily picked up and
carried about.

which form Jokes or run In long lines from
the shoulders to the belt. The sleeves are
tucked In the same unstinted manner. and
90 are the collars and cuffs. The effect is
very telling and pretty for the tucks in this
luminous material catch light and shadow
charmingly.
Yokes and blouse designs for fronts Of
blouses and sleeves In fagoting are still
popular. These are found in many Of tho
Liberty satin blouses. though lace trimming
predominates and are used as extensively
as ever in the crepe blouses, which have
lost none Of their prestige.
Batiste embroideries make an effective
trimming for silk bouses. especially the
embroideries with the design outlined in
black. They make particularly pretty
