In by only twenty-four of the young
married set. The dance was given II
payment Of a wager between two popu
lar young matrons, and nothing more
clever has been planned this season:
The club was d%ismantled Of it's every
day furnishings and calico curtains
were hung in the windows, benches
boxes and barrels replaced the chairs
the rooms were lighted with tallow dipE
and kerosene lamps and corn stalks
were used everywhere with a Lavish
hand, while chickens, ROSTERS, cats anc
dogs wandered about as they pleased
AS the guests in their very best farm
clothes arrived they found the walters
at the club arrayed as farm hands IL
overalls, dumping boots and straw hats
grouped around an old fiddler, who was
perched on 8 table fddling the old, ole
airs. The farm supper was served from
tables covered with red cloths and thu
tables fairly groaned under the burden
Of such old-fashioned delicacies as roas'
pig, boiled beef and cabbage, baket
beans, raised biscuit, apples and pies
After dinner everybody gathered abou'
the fireplace and heard the "Friendl,
Gazette read. This Gazette was
most amusing country newspaper will
a hit at everyone in it's columns. Thel
there were the dances which were pop
ular years. ago, the money musk, vir
ginia reel and others, while the rooste
added to the rural effect and startled
the guests by Growing every now AM
then. ~~-,- ri:
