"of course you cam" was ,no re-
ply. "See here, Katie, you are mar
ried and settled in pretty house.
and. as you say. you have all your
handsome wedding silver and cut
glass for the table Don't set out
with the idea that entertaining Is a
great bugbear, but Just be given TO

CANDIES over green"
1t was with some trepldation that
Mrs. Lawrence put the finishing
touches to her table. but as she ar
ranged the lilies in the green basket
she surveyed with pleasure the artis
tic effect The candles shed a soft
green light upon the snowy damask
of the tablecloth, and we're reflected
in the glittering silver and cut glass.
Doylies and centerpieces were en-
broidered in green, and even the
china bore a design of maidenhair.
The guests, who arrived few mo-
ments later, had donned their dainty
bridesmaids gowns OF white organdy
over green. and wore punches OF lilies
of the valley, the flower which they
had carried at the wedding.
"Oh, how pretty!" was the exclam-
alton as they were ushered into the
dining-room, and caught sight of the
table with its decorations.
One attractively served course sue
ceeded another, and the ice-cream in
lily molds made a fitting climax.
well. Katie. you are genius!"
exclaimed the maid of honor, as she
nibbled bonbon; for this is GER
tainly the prettlest luncheon I've ever
been to- don't believe you learned
how at vassar."
The hostess smiled.
Girls, I'll confess" she said; "Mrs.
Kirke gave me all the ideas, menu,
decorations and everything"

Mrs. Delnnd ON Divorce.

"If my happiness in marrying lees-
ems In my brothers eyes the impor-
tance of the permanence of marriage
then | will give up my happiness" /"
declares Mrs. Margaret Deland, the
authoress. THE people who are not
content with legal separation when
a marriage is uncomfortable, the peo-
pie who say, We will part and re-
marry as best friends" Mrs. De-
land avowed, ATTACK the permanence
of marriage, on which the family,
State, society and civilization rest"
This individualism, she added,
us leaning chastely under the gulse OF
a high perception of ahlnities toward
free love. To make individual de-
sires the standard in social questions
is dangerous to an alarming degree"

completely eclipsing the view of the
stage for those behind. II is a much
more convenient plan to check coats
before going to seats. Hats may be
checked also; II not, they should be
removed Immediately after seating
oneself. or s)urse, II one is very
late one may considerably remain at
the back of the theatre until the act
is over before seeking ones seat;
and, indeed, at some concerts this is
a rule insisted upon by the manage
ment. Who of US, when in the the
atre, has not been at some time
made most uncomfortable by selfish
neighbors on either side lolling upon
both arms of ones chair, or by some
one behind beating time against the
seat, or possibly resting his feet in
the opening of It; by whispering or
by the continued rattllng of pro-
gram? Then often there is the
odious habit OF incessant conversa-
tion of those near by--people who
insist upon explaining the entire play,
saying who is to be the villain, who
is to marry whom, etc, or possibly
we are bothered by some very foolish
persons who pay for seats at the play
and then converse all through its per-
formance upon various outside topics.
1t almost goes without saying, that
stamping the feet to testify applause
is in very bad taste. hand-clapping
being the proper way Of expressing
approval; that nibbling bon-bons at
the theatre is not permissible; that
one should never remove ones
gloves, and that only vulgarians ever
indulge in gum-chewing anywhere.
