line of entertaining, and this iocca-
sion proved no exception, as, beside
the elaborate entertainment, every
body was made to feel the cordial
hospitality which pervaded the very
atmosphere. The dining room,
which had been previously darkened,
was most attractive in decorations of
red and white, and the long table at
which the company was seated, was
brilliant with lights from many can
dies. The immaculate table cloth
was checked with bands of red, the
center holding q large red lamp,
which rested on handsome piece Of
Battenberg, embroidered with La
France roses. AT each end of the
table tall vases held red and white
roses and red carnations. A salad
course, with chocolate, was served,
followed by delicious pineapple
cream, chocolate and lemon cake.
During the repast The hostess passed
to the guests mysterious looking pa
