Copyright, 1so5.)

An Up-to-Date BOOK Farty.
 The hostess informed us that she had spent weeks In preparing for this entertainment, and we believed her when we gazed upon the 32 objects, each bearing the name of an author. The title of the book represented was to be guessed and written on the card opposite the number the object bore. For instance, "The Eternal City" by Hall Caine, was represented by a map of Rome; "The Virginian," by a pie ture of George Washington, with Owen Mister written on one corner; "The Speckled Bird" by Augusta Evans Wilson, by a white bird cov- cred with specks; Black Rock" was easy-a black stone on the table, with Connor on it. A spray of blue flowers recalled that Van Dyke had written 'The Little Blue Flower" The Three Musketeers" was represented by three toy soldiers. Kipling's Seven Seas" was recognized by seven C's written on white paper and pinned on the wall The Octopus" by William Norris, was large picture of that fish. Other books represented were: "A Paste Board Crown" by Clara Morris; Boy Corelli; We Two" Edna Ly- all; "The Duct" Kipling; ''The Gen tleman from Indiana" Booth Parking ton. and Three Men in a Boat" by Jerome.
 First, second and consolation prizes were given. consisting of books. This was an afternoon affair for ladies, but 1t would be quite suitable for club or church society entertainment

A very popular form of entertain ment is the Dutch supper. If it is possible. do not use table cloth. but have doilies or orange crepe paper. that is the Dutch color. Use all the Delft china that is procurable: and imitation ware is very effective and very cheap. Tulips are the Dutch flower. and tulip shaped bon-bon boxes and candle shades may be made from orange tissue paper. Little wooden shoes may be purchased and used to hold the salted nuts Serve the fol- lowing menu. which is written in Dutch. much to the mystifcation of the guests.

Here is a green and white luncheon to be served to eight guests. the Ideal number for a luncheon party. The table center piece is a glass bowl filled with maiden hair ferns: use candle sticks of glass, with green shades. A large fern ball suspended over the table makes a most beautiful decora- tion. The place cards are white, with a spray of fern done in water colors.
 The following menu is very appetiz- ing and easy to prepare. A puree made from spinach and peas served with a spoonful of whipped cream; creamed minced chicken baked in ramakins; sweetbread salad served in green pep pers; pistachio ice in tall glasses standing on a fern decorated plate. Green frosted cakes ornamented with blanched almonds and creme de menth completes this dainty menu.
 This is very clever scheme devised by a mother to celebrate her little girls tenth birthday. Invitations were sent out from half after two until six" Rainbow Party" was written in one corner. The rooms were com pletely transformed by yards of red. orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet cheese-cloth, which was used as portieres, window drapery, etc. It was festooned from the corners of the room to the gas fixtures in the center and was draped from the grillwork.
 The mother told the old fairy story the two children who set out to dis cover the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Then each child was given a piece of string which he or she was to wind up without breaking; the cords had been arranged as for a spider-web party. When the end of the string was reached tiny pot was found on the end filled with pepper mint candy, which had been wrapped in gold paper.
 The birthday cake was crescent shaped, bearing candles of the seven colors. This party is really very pret- .ty and not half the trouble to prepare as 1t appears to be from reading the description.

A novel way to find partners is to write on the cards passed to the men the names of states, and the names of capital cities on those for the ladies. Then tell the states" to find their Capitals" It is surprising to see the mixed-up condition of things for few minutes. especially if the western and newer states are selected.

Quotations Appropriate for the New Home

Quotations Appropriate for the New Home. Tn the old-time manor house 1t was | the fashion to inscribe a motto over the fireplace, especially in the great dining-room and library. The inscrip- tion was usually in Latin, the Ian guage of the scholar This custom is now being revived, and there is scarce ly room in which a sentiment pret- tily expressed would not be a welcome addition, and which would at once at ! tract the attention of guest as being something unique Here are a few good sentiments; the lettering may be done in script or Old English:
 For the hall:
 East or west, home is best"
 "A mans home is his castle"
 Home is the resort of love, of joy, of peace"
 Our house Is ever at your service. " Over the fireplace in Mark Twain's house in Connecticut is this beautiful Inscription: ...
 The ornament of house is the guests who frequent it." The three following inscriptions are especially apprppriatst nfprsvth family living-room:
 "oh. ye fire and heat, bless ye the Lord"
 God has given us this ease" or Seek thine own ease"
 No place is more delightful than ones own hreside" For the library:
 "Old wood to burn,
 Old friends to trust.
 Old authors to read" - There is an art of reading"
 The monuments of vanished minds"
 Infinite riches in a little room" For the nursery:
 God rest ye, little children"
 "A child in the house is a we'll spring of pleasure"
 For the music room:
 "The hidden soul of harmony"
 Music, the speech of the angels"
