GOVERNING THE
RETURN OF A FIRST "CALL''

The Importance of returning first calls
promptly cannot be overestimated. To
delay is to give an impression of in
difference. while to ignore is a cut di-
rect that nothing can justify.
Paying calls differs somewhat in the
suburbs from in a city, for in the latter
place man rarely makes visit with
his wife. She goes in the afternoon
taking her husbands card and leaving
one of his for the host at whose house
she stops, another for the hostess, and
one of her own for the latter. The rule
for all calls is one card Of the mans
for each person in the house who is old
enough to be in society. while the wom-
an leaves one for each woman, but none
for any men in the family.
In the suburbs, where it is still the
custom to pay visits in the evening a
man often accompanies his wife. and
should not fail in this when returning
first call If the older resident accom-
panied his wife on the Introductory visit
For the new arrival to sally forth in
the afternoon with her husbands card
to return the first courtesy will he to
fail to do what Is expected. One almost
says that by fair means or foul she must
be accompanied by her husband. More
leeway for time is given in paving
first call under these conditions, for

But when goodnight is said below stairs
the nights fun Is not ended by any
means, for many of the rites Of my
lady's chamber are quite as attractive
as those in which the sterner sex were
permitted to take part earlier In the
evening. Each girl upon arriving In her
boudoir should pluck two roses with hong
stems, naming one for herself and the
other for her lover. She must then retire
to her sleeping room without speaking to
anyone and kneeling beside her bed re-
peat the following lines, gazing, mean
while, intently at her lovers rose:
Irvine, Irvine and intertwine,
Let my love be wholly thine.
If his heart be deep and true,
Deeper grow his roses hue"
If her swain be faithful the color OF
the rose will at once grow darker and its
blush more intense.
The last rite Of all for the Maid Of
Halloween, and to many this has proved
the most satisfactory and convincing test
of all, is that with the glass of water.
The identity of the maids lover cannot
long remain In doubt with this test care
fully and well executed. A glass of water

placed on a little stand at the bedside.
In the night she will dream Of falling
from a bridge into river; but scarcely
will she touch the water when her future
husband, whose face she can plainly see,
