of elegantly dressed women and strains
of sweet music combined to make the
tea given by Mrs Julia Fayerweather

most charming of the summer season.

about the room, with vases here and
there holding clusters of white lilies

ed with Easter lilies resting upon a
handsome Oriental embroidered white
silk cover, which was also ornamented
by a beautiful pink egg shell Siamese
china vase two centuries old.

bank of ported palms unrelieved by
lighter colors. Ropes of fragrant ma
lie made a pretty drapery over the
carved sandal wood grill-arch leading
to the second parlor which was a mass
of yellow, golden showers being pro-
fusely used. Deep red lilies and red
carnations were artistically arranged
in the wide hallway. Yellow coreopsis
were seen in the decorations of the
dining room, the latter with handsome
ebony furnishings. A tall vase of the
rich yellow blossoms formed the table
center piece, while a few bowls of pink
roses sufficed for the blue sitting room.
The second hall leading from the din
ing room to the billiard. room was also
made attractive with yellow coreopsfs,
and the conservatory opening upon
the stair landing was a charming re-
treat where lamps shed their soft light
upon the greenery. Upon the broad
lanai where the Hawaiian quintet
played, tea tables were arranged, each |
covered with a pretty embroidered tea
cloth and a tiny cut glass vase holding |
pink carnations and maiden hair ferns, |
