MOURNING ETIQUETTE.

Conventional Time For Wearing the
Trappinss 81 Wee.
A widow may resume her society
hood has expired. In 30 far ~ paying
calls Is concerned. and after two
months she may attend small informal
gatherings and concerts. When three
months have expired she may accept
and give Invitations to small dinners.
This Is the modern seclusion, but
elderly women frequently make .
compromise between the short and the
long seclusion and do not accept OF
give Invitations until six months have
expired.
Next In importance IL the period Of
mourning Tor father or mother. This
extends over twelve months. but q
great difference consists in the period
during which half mourning II worn.
For instance. an unmarried daughter
residing at home would wear black
during ten months and half mourning
for two months. A married daughter.
on the other hand. living ut distance
from her girlhood's home, would wear
black for eight months and half mourn
ing for four months or black for six
months and half mourning for the
same time. Then. again. young girls
still In the schoolroom. Of ages from
ten to fourteen, are not expected to
wear black longer than three months
and to 90 into half mourning at the
expiration Of that time. commencing
with black and white. followed BY
grays and half mourning shades. Lit.
tie children are not put into mourn
ing. but wear white with black trim
minGs. The seclusion followed on the
death Of q parent 10 but slight. Call
ing Il resumed after the nrst fortnight
and Invitations accepted. ~ q rule
after six weeks OF two months, save
to balls and dances.
Next in order comes the mourning
for q brother or sister. This period
varies from four to six months. Black
II worn during four months and half
mourning for two months. or black Il
worn for three months and half
mourning for the same length OF time.
For relations by marriage. brother
in-law or siSter-in-law. four months II
the regulation time. 1t may be said
that the mourning worn By Q wife for
her husband's brother or sister n usu-
ally longer than that worn for her sis
tiers husband.
Formerly the period Of mourning for
grandparents was nine months. but
now it IN seldom longer than six
months This Il divided into four
months Of black In the case Of The
granddauehters being unmarried and
two months Of half mourning. But II
they are married and reside In anoth-
er town black II usually worn for
three months and half mourning for
three months.
One word a. regards the mourning
worn for IN uncle or aunt. The Pc
Rod h three months. and black -
worn for two months and half mourn
ing for one month. Or there may be q
shorter period, six weeks. during
which time black il worn and no half
mourning. This short period Il only
followed by married nieces who live
far away from their relatives.
