 Mrs. J. H. Stanfiel gave the second of her series of entertainments on yester- day afternoon when four tables enjoyed bridge. Mrs. J. B. Ellis won a tiny silver violet stand for making the highest score. If the third of Mrs. Stanfiers series of parties, which takes place this morning. proves half as pleasant as the other two, she will have need to be proud. Tn her winning little way she is not the one to stay long under social obligations to any one. And while this method would be slow process-as her apartments are small--still her friends realize her gen. uine cordiafity, and thoroughly enjoy her hospitality.
