A Charity Luncheon.

Charity luncheons are very popular
Just now. If church society, club or
charity organization gives a luncheon,
it is quite the thing for a lady to
ask a few friends to be her guests,
sending word in advance TO the chair
man of the affair to reserve the places
or table. Society people are doing
this, and sometimes the tables are re-
served for the hour appointed. This
insures a certain sum, and makes the
luncheon financial as well as social
success. There never was a time
when there was so much need for
charity work, especially for women
and children. The rolls, cakes, salads
and meats are generally home cooked
at these affairs, so if there is a sur
plus the things are sold, supply of

articles may be carried. Madame

The Horse an American Animal.
Prof. H. F. Osborn is inclined to think

thinks, that the genus Equus became

horses, asses and zebras. But there
is evidence that in Miocene and PHO
