talked abOut-that dinner last Christ
mas! If they should happen to meet
again this summer at a picnic they
will probably discuss the dance of
last week. Neither of them could
have the least interest in a dinner

marrying in his head he doesn't seem
to care much whom he marries If

apartment and keep house so THAI they
could wear kimOnaS when they were
home from business and enjoy a little
solid comfort. But before they had
tried light housekeeping a week they

result in an excited controversy, very
entertaining, no doubt, to the people
waiting for admittance. The result of
frequent experiences of this sort was
the establish ment of a kimona sched-
ule to regulate the hours at which the
different members of the household
can go in undress uniform and which
provides that not more than two can
be in kimona or process Of dressing
at one time.
