TINY TREES AT A FRAGRANT
LUNCHEON.
Na- vorlr Drooe st

When Mrs. Titan Coffey gave a
luncheon for Miss Evelyn Chew (Which
envious persons called the Mocha-and
rose trees Of the "baby rambler va
riety in green maiolica vases on the
table. That was in Washington, a
couple Of days ago, and tbs dwarfed
foliage certainly gave an air of quaint
ness. Mrs. Cofey felt it all was worth
while in order to show her granddaugh-
ter among advantageous surroundings.
About the vases were tied big bows Of
deep pink ribbon, the shade Of the clus-
tered roses. The baby rambler will be
a favorite this winter, say the persons
who follow the profession Of decorating
homes.

Liverpool-Wheat was quiet at the opening,
with values Md lower, as following the easier
cables from America on Saturday and the in
creased Spanish import duty. Argentine offer
ings were more liberal, and these also helped
day owing to the Russian official spring wheat
estimate. Corn was ea>V at the opening, with
pressure developed on larger offerings, due to
the shipments to Liverpool being larger than
expected Prices at midday showed I'd de-
cline.
