create confusion in the minds of their
friends and the best course is not to
omit the identifying Christian names.
A widow is privileged either to re-
tain her husband s Chritian name on
her card, or to substitute for it her
own; as, for example, the widow of
Guy Roberts Benson may have her
cards read either Mrs. Guy Roberts

for widow to use her maiden surname
with the surname of the deceased; as,
for example. Mrs. Granger Benson, -
Mrs Benson's maiden name having
been Granger.
Junior or the contraction "Jr.,
is sometimes added to the name on the
card of a women whose husband bears
the same name as his father, in order
to give a distinguishing mark between
the cards of mother inlaw and daughter
in-1aw. If the mother-in-law, in such
an instance, should lose her husband,
and at the same time wish to retain his
baptismal names upon her card, she
must then add the explanatory abbrevl-
alton "Sr,' while her daughter-in-IaW
grasses the "Jr.' from hers.
A woman who lis divorced grasses at
once from her card the Christian name
of the name who was her husband. II
she retains the use of his surname she
joins with it either her own Christian
or her own surname, as she prefers.

THE CORRECT THING
IN VISITING CARDS

Visiting cards for women vary but
slightly from season to season. AS a
rule the cards used by married women
are larger than those adopted by I'M
married women. The material and
quality of the card should be the best.
Pure white bristol board of medium
weight, with the surface polished, not
glazed, and with the name engraved
thereon in black ink are the distiRg-
uished features of cards used in good
society.
Block. script and old English letter
ing are all fashionable types for the
engraving Of the present visiting cards.
Beveled or gilded edges, crests, or any
decoration and engraving beyond the
name, address, and day at home do not
evince taste or a knowledge of the
incest social customs.
Cards of the most approved type
give the full Christian name or names,
if there is more than one, as well as the
surname. 1t is more modish, for ex-
ample, to have the inscription read,
Mrs. Howard Williams Steele. - than
Mrs. Howard W. Steele;' "Miss
Agnes Clark Cornell. - than Miss
Agnes c. Cornell;' and unmarried wo-
men, as a rule, forbear the use of
diminutives. such as "Bessie, Polly,
and Maggie" an their calling cards.
The senior matron of the Oldest
branch of family may, if she pleases,
drop her husband s Christian name from
her cards and let the card read simply.
for example, "Nrs. Everhart;" and
her eldest unmarried daughter is en-
titled TO omit her own Christian name
and use a card reading. for example
;. Miss Everhart."
When. however. there are several
families of the same name in city or
community. all mingIing more or less
in one circle Of society, this IS apt 70
