bride and will be found an agreeable
and entertaining form of amusement
as an honor affair for the coming
bride
Each guest is supposed to bring a
jingle either original or otherwise, re-

when the jingles may be read at the
table, or it is equally entertaining at

is a luncheon it is a pretty idea to
have in the finger bowls, some of the
Japanese water flowers which unfold
when they touch the water and from

and green and as many other appro-
carried out. The place cards may be
bride paper dolls done in water colors
and arranged so as to stand at each
plate. Souvenirs of tiny toy trunks
tied with white ribbon and filled with
heart candies make dainty favors for
each guest After the luncheon, an APP
propriate and amusing feature would
be a shadow party, giving pantomine
pictures showing the future life of the
bride
