A pleasant surprise party was given
Sunday by the Misses Mary and Eliz-
abeth Niewoehner at their home near
New Paris, in honor OF their sister,
Miss Ellen Niewoehner. An elegant
dinner was served at noon to Miss
Rosa Kuehn. Miss Marjorie Simpson.
Miss Emma Niewoehner, Miss Maude
Pettibone, Miss Martha Niewoehner,
Miss Marie King. Miss Amelia Me
woehner and Miss Alma Kuehn.
A girl who has her own tea table
can make it much more attractive by
often having little novelties. All
girls like to try something new, and
the new things become by and by, reg
ular favorites. One Of these novelties
is to put about half spoonful of or
ange marmalade In cup of tea. It
gives delicious flavor and is q
change from the usual slice of lemon.
Many persons have served MARINA
lade sandwiches with tea, but 1t is new
er to use the marmalade in the tea and
some other kind Of sandwiches. Those
made with a nut paste would be good,
or pate de foie gras. Swedish waters,
buttered and heated would also be de-
liciOus.
Some girls do not care for tea and
are very fond of chocolate, SO it is a
good plan to serve chocolate, too, for
ones friends. 1t can either be done
by having the chocolate sent up from
the kitchen all made or by using an in
Simultaneous chocolate for unexpected
company. The latter is made by
pouring boiling water over it just like
tea, except that 1t must be stirred until
dissolved.
And with the chocolate another nov
city can be used. marshmallow
dropped into hot chocolate gives an
unusual and unique flavor which is
much enjoyed by many persons. A
very charming addition to q girls tea
table would be two little glass jars
which she could keep supplied with
the marshmallows and marmalade.

MADAME NORDICA

Madame Nordica, who will appear
here in recital this evening at the Col
iseum. stands today upon a pedestal of
her own. She gave n beautiful proof
Of her warmth and graciousness of
heart at Martha's Vineyard decentiy.
while visiting friends. adding one more
to the many incidents of this kind that
we delight to remember in connection
with our great American prima donna
Nordica is directly descended from
four of the most important families Of
the Islands history, and when she ex-
friends there. the matter was at once
taken in hand and invitations issued
to friends. distant kindred and repre-
senatives of the old families of the Is
land.
AS a greeting to the most distin-
guished women of the Vineyard de-
scent, the event assumed a patriotic
significance. After giving her
friends a rare treat in a selection from
French, German and English songs.
she was presented with handsome
silk American flag and staff with gold
en- eagle. Standing under its folds,
she sang again, the Star Spangled Ban
ner, and made little speech, her first
in public life. She outlined her well
known plans for a great music settle
ment and center. with Festival House,
conservatory. ETC.. on the Hudson. This
she wants for America and young
American musical aspirants, to shield
them from the hardships and tempta-
tions they are bound to encounter in
seeking their musical educations
abroad, and to establish a center for
American musical art.

Oriental Carpets Are ef Five Distinct
kinds-Many Subdivisions.
Oriental rugs are divided ordinarily
into five classes-Turkish, Persian.
Turkestan and Indian. These classes
are still further subdivided. according
to the locality in which the rug is pro-
duced.
In weaving oriental rugs threads Of
crooi are attached to q warp Of cotton
or wool by running knots. then insert
ing a weft OF cotton or wool for the
back, pressing the knots home with a
wooden or iron comb and finally level
ing the pile with pair OF scissors.
The loom Is a simple vertical frame.
carrying on its upper part a beam con-
tanning . warp. which Is kept stretch
ed by rod or pole passing through 1t.
Persian rugs are OF close weave.
They contain more knots to the inch
than any kind Of oriental rugs. While
the factory system Of manufacture has
been introduced to some extent, stili
most OF the oriental rugs that reach
the United States are the product Of
home labor. In some cases entire fami-
lies being engaged in the work. 1t IS
frequently the case that only one pat
tern Is worked In family. and II -
