An indian Dinner.

There are all sorts of novel enter

most enjoyable was an Indian" din

suburban trains was also inclosed, a
bit of much appreciated thoughtful

There were two tents in the back
yard, and between them a table with
benches awaited the arrival of the
"enemy." There were camp fires In
the sand, one for roasting potatoes,
the other for corn. while a third was
presided over by an expert woodsman,
where fish right from the lake were
broilng. A game of archery on the
lawn sharpened the appettes, and It
is needless to say that this real camp
supper was fully enjoyed. The table
was decorated with Indian bead work
the place cards were Indian souvenir
post cards and the bread was passed
in baskets of Indian weaving. also the
berries. There were squares of stiff
paper for wrapping around the black
ened but delicious potatoes as they
were drawn from the Goals, and for
the ears Of corn. Melons Of all va
rieties constituted the dessert, with
any number of berry pies. AS the
twilight waned and the stars APP
peared. the fires were rekindIed, long
sticks were provided, marshmallows
were roasted. songs sung, and it was
the last train to town that conveyed
a tired but merry party back 70 the
eonYentionalities Of civilized life.
