What is the proper way to acknowl-
edge an invitation to a piano recital
given by girl friend? If gifts are
sent to her what would be suitable and
how should they be given?
At an Informal reception who sug-
gests going to the dining room. the
lady or her escort? Should a man al
ways keep to the right in being seated
at table when the places are not
marked?
In Introducing a young professional
man should lady be presented to
him or visa versa? And does the age
of lady make any difference in the
above question?
Is it proper to ask man in when he
takes a girl home and should she ask
him to call?

In reply to the first question. ac-
knowledge the invitation to recital
in the same manner and form as 1t
was received, ! do not believe 1t is
customary to give gifts except flow
ers; they are always permissible and
acceptable and should be sent the day
OF the recital or presented to the artist
during the performance.

Oaks vs.. SycaDores

came from the knot of spectators who had
gathered at this spot, and a third boat shot
around the bend into the course of the Oaks,
barely missing their rival.
1t contained but one occupant-Brad Ben
nett! AS if anticipating the inevitable col
lision he franticaly tried to sheer off, though
In reality getting more in the way.
The only, chance for the Oaks seemed to be
by the forbidden channel. But Willis Lang
don, with all the strength of his strong right
arm, sent their boat flying diagonally across
the track, to strike the intruder upon her star
board bow.
So great was the shock to his lighter craft,
that Bennett was pitched headforemost into
the river, while the Oaks, mid a storm of
yells, regained their proper course.
The .maneuver, well as, it was DONE cost
them dear, however, for at his master-stroke
Willis Langdon's oar snapped in twain.
The coxswain, counteracting as best he
could the alfstroke of the bow, the Oaks

their own.
Then Henry Gilman showed his unselfsh-
ness at sight of his rivals misfortune by
throwing an oar, and, equally pitted again,
they kept on to the winning post, now only
The cheers which greeted them were deaf

clared Willis Langdon, without any apparent

"No, mol" replied the generous CAPTAIN
Gilman. ut was due to the interference of
Bennett and your broken oar. l wanted TO
stop, but dared not"
The match was finally voted, all things con-
sidered, draw, though the best rowed that
ever took place on the old Pawtuckaway.
What was better yet, it brought about the
most amicabe of feelings between the Oaks
and the Sycamores.
Brad Bennett was rescued in half-drowned
condition, and afterwards humbly asked Che
Oaks, pardon for interfering in the race.

on to the branches of the apple-tree when it
grew quite dark again, but not too dark for
the youth to discern the form of the terrible
eagle. Quick as lightning he drew. out his
dagger, and waited for the approach of the
bird: The eagle, greedy for carrion, and
thinking that it was fresh corpse swooped
down upon the boy and dug its sharp talons
into his flesh.
The youth quickly cut off the birds feet,
and, springlng on to the branches of the ap- i.

knights below. As soon as the bird touched
the ground all the knights rose up again, and

youth picked one or two of the golden apples

Anyone who picked an apple gained admit
tance into the golden castle, and there in a
golden room sat an enchanted princess OF
SURPRISING fairness and beauty. She was as
rich, too, as she was beautiful, for the Gel
lars of the castle were full of precious stones,
and great chests of the finest gold stood
around the rooms.
Many knights had come from afar to try
their luck, but it was in vain they attempted
to climb the mountain. In spite of having
their horses shod with sharp nails, no one
managed to get more than halfway up the
mountain. Sometimes they broke an arm,
sometimes leg, and many brave man had
broken his neck even. The beautiful princess
sat at her window and watched the brave
knights trying to reach her. The sight of
her always gave the men fresh courage, and
they focked from the four quarters Of the
globe to attempt the work of rescuing her.
A heap of corpses, both of riders and horses,
lay around the bottom of the mountain, and
many dying men lay groaning in their agony.
The whole neighborhood had the appearance
of vast churchyard.
The princess had now waited for seven years
for someone to climb the mountain, but all in
vain. In three more days the seven wears
would be up, when knight in golden armor
was seen making his way towards the disas-
trous spot.
Sticking his spurs into his horse, he made
tremendous rush at the mountain, and got
horses head and came down again without
slip or stumble. The next day he tried
again in the same way. The horse trod on
the steel as if it had been level earth, and
sparks of fire emerged from all sides. All
the other mobiles gazed in astonishment,. for
he had almost gained the summit, and in
another moment he would have reached the
apple-tree. But all of sudden huge eagle
rose up and spread its gigantic wings, hitting
as it did SO the knights horse in the eye.

before the seven years would be up. Then
