MAN
The EIond's Attempt to Stay Was

She was blonde. Not decided
blonde, but her complexion was toe

her being classed as even a near-bru

She was nthusiastic-young looking

to be her father.
They sat at table built for four in
a downtown cafe. bashful looking

The other was vacant-much to the
bashful mans discontinue.
Silently and swiftly the lonely bach.

at the menu. The blonde picked up
the card. giggled twice and looked at
her companion.

made no Ineligible reply. Then he
reached for pencil. He wrote some
thing on the back of the card. The
girl glanced at the other man and
laughed outright.
The bashful man moved uneasily in
his chair and picked up a newspaper.
Were they ridiculing him?
Another giggle. and the blonde began
giving her escort ideas as to what she
preferred in edibles.
Cant have oyster cocktails, can
we? Oh, yes. this month has an r in

want some of that tomato SOUP"
The escort was writing it down The
man behind the newspaper couched as
If uncomfortable. He had ordered to-
mato soup, and 1t had not yet been
brought.
But, Of course, the blonde didn't
know that She chattered along, say
ing between giggles:
Goodness knows what Carrie would
think If she saw me in this place. We
were here for luncheon yesterday and
met two OF the awfullest looking men
but Carrie would talk to them
Then we both got scared and vowed
and declared we'd never set foot In
side this place again for fear we would
see them. Wasn't that awful? But
I'm delaying things, and we must
hurry. Yes, believe In lobster la

She paused and giggled while the
man with the Grecian nose wrote
The other man glanced over his pa

More giggles, more gossip, and final
ly. after what the bashful man after
ward said appeared a week, the
waiter brought in the orders.
Two bowls of soup were placed on
the table, one for the blonde and ono
for the bashful man, while the man
with the Grecian nose helped himself
to the girls crackers Then came the
lobster. the steak and the salads.
Only two orders of everything. The
girls companion ate nothing, but sat
isfed himself with a short cigar.
The bashful man ate nervously. He
appeared to be extremely en-
barrassed. The girl did all the talk
ing, her companion merely answering
with looks and quick blinks from his
black eyes.
Two checks were brought in before
the meal was half over, but the bach
elor picked up one and prepared to
leave. Then he coughed and sat down.
It was the wrong check, The girl had
his and was carelessly scribbl,ng on
its back with the fat mans pencil.
Reddening and in a helpless manner,
the bashful man extended one check
to the girl and reached for the one'
she had, noting In confusion that the
totals were exactly for the same
amount. The fat man with the
Grecian nose scowled.
The girl continued her writing,
then looking up with no apparent sur
prise, nodded and gave the waiting
bachelor his check. One swift reach
for his hat and he was gone. At the
cashiers desk he looked at the back
of his check. There. written by the
girl, were the words:
you needn't be so bashful-its
only Louis. Besides, he's deaf and
dump. Hears only with his eyes"
But the bashful man paid the bill
and went out Hereafter, he says, he
will enter no eating place but a grill
room. There's safety among the stays.

THE BUFFET LUNCHEON.
How to Give Delightful Affair al
Horne With Little Trouble

HOmc WIKI Little nOuDtS.
If you have too many guests to seat
at regular luncheon and do not care
to give tea or afternoon card party
why not give buffet luncheon? II
is rather novel. can be easily man
aged, and every one has an informal
time. says the Chicago News.
One given recently for seventy-ive
guests was quite delightful affair
and as quickly served as if but dozen
guests had been present.
Small chairs were rented and put
close together around the dining room
and back hall so that every one had d
seat. The table was set in the middle
of the dining room arranged for serv-
ing only. In the center was a great
oblong plateau of sweet peas and mi
gnonette. Silver candelabra with pink
shades were used at either end of the
square table, and dotted around were
bonbon dishes with nuts, cakes and
candy; also plates of bread and butter
sandwiches.
The menu consisted of oyster cock.
tails, bouillon, croquets and Drowned
oysters, fruit salad with crackers
baked with Parmesan cheese and pa
prika, fresh strawberry ice cream
served in sherbet glasses, with straw
berries OH top. and coffee.
Everything was served from tht
kitchen, and there We're enough wait
ers not to have delays. Several mem
bers of the family did not sit down
but moved from group to group te
break up any stiffness and see that al
were served promptly. Coffee was
passed after the guests had risen from
their chairs. This was more informa
and gave an opportunity to NEE
friends not seen before.
The special charm of such lunch
con is that there is no formal arrange
ment, so guests and friends coult
easily manage to sit in group.
While it saves much trouble to the
hostess If everything is put into the
hands of caterer, such lunch could
easily be got up at home. The two
essentials to its success are that ther,
be plenty of walters and that every
thing be ready promptly for them *
pass as each course is taken out.
