DAY AFTER THE PARTY.
Depression Invariably Follows in Wake
of Hospitality.

The Good Book admonishes Us to u.s.
hospitality ungrudgingly one toward an
other. bur it fails to give us any rules
for the dissipation of that depression
which invariably follows in the wake of
such hospitality.
The mere thought of entertaining orr
friends produces wave of excitement
and anticipation upon whose crest We
ride triumphant over all obstacles. Ii is
only the next day when we lie in the
trough of realization and look up al the
amount of high rolling we have per
formed that we call ourselves names
and wonder what under the sun made us
take so much trouble, when there was
apparently so little to be gained BY it,
says Cally Ryland in the News Leader.
Yesterday it seemed an unconsciOnably
small matter TO make quarts of chicken
salad and pints of mayonnaise, to employ
extra help" that only proved to be ex-
ira hindrance, TO turn our kitchen over
TO the caterer and his horde, to upset the
dignity of our first floor, pile its chairs
and tables up in the porch, where as like
as not the rain would descend upon them
and the SHOWS work havoc with their
delicate colOrs, to cover our floors with
crash, hire a few sentinel palms to typify
tropical warmth, run the risk of leaving
our best friends out of the list of the
row from the neighbors articles that we
ourselves do not possess, but which
seemed absolutely necessary TO the sue
cess of oGr entertainment.
Today we wonder YEARLY if any less
successful function has ever been given.
The whipped cream gave out in the
first round, the last bowl of punch was
undeniably weak, pink candles dripped
relentlessly over the lace centerpiece
which our sister-in-law insisted upon
lending, two of our handsomest SevreS
plates are in ruins, and when we peered
into the pantry to gather up the frag-
ments for the benefit of our kindly dis
posed neighbors we found it swept clean
of every edible, and divers cake baskets
b5nbon dishes, etc, had to return empty
as when they came save only for the an
substantial gratitude that filled them.
Many a woman INDUCES in "a good
cry" the day after she has played hostess

Depression pervades the very atmos-
phere. This species of our own hos
pitality to which we have looked forward
Tor so many DAYS is thlng OF the past.
Was the game worth the candle? De
cidedly not, we say, and then and there
resolve upon a clustered existence for
the next six months.
1t is perhaps fortunate for our friends
that we require but two or three hearty
words of praise in regard to our social
talents to console us for such discomfort
and the hope that springs eternal in the
human breast soon prods us on ever re-
newed efforts of hospitality.-Phila-

being claimed and the topic of this

MAYOR BOYD IN HIS
fine ACROBAT|C FEAT

Local politicians arc doing consider
able talking the last few days anent the
action of Mayor j.. Frank Boyd and
his latest feat with tho typewriter in
the letter writing line. Now to the
intimate friends of the mayor he is
known as a gentleman who is nothing
if not polite. To these friends the
action of the mayor when he assigned
the crib business to Chief-of Police
Woydt is nothing more nor less than
one of his choice moves in diplomacy.
The original crib orders signed by
the mayor which fixed the rents OF
the habitues of the "burnt district"
also the amounts of their fines paid
monthly to the city, were very obnox-
ious to certain ''force' in local poll
tics. In fact it was this element that
put the worthy mayor into the office
which he now holds.
The crib order was antagonistic TO
this particular element which holds
sway in lower Howard street regions.
His mayorship evidently overlooked
something when he made this order
or else he forsaw his latest official act

CLEVELAND, O., Jan. 4.-That the

better on numerous occasions, and now
when they do not get one four figure

and catered to the goodwill of two
sides-a sort of serving two masters
as it were.
And now the mayor rises boldly out
of temporary oblivion, gazes upon the
result of what he has done, signs, GEES

things several impossihiitics and grace
fully slips from under the load which
he and the august chief of-police have
heretofore been sharing on equal terms,
and lets the bulk rest serenely on the

the mayor once more covers his magic
typewriter, looks as wise as Solomon
is supposed to have looked several
times, initiates his chest, throws in a
little admiration of self and again sets
down to evolving the next pilitical
move.
The chief executive OF the city has
