TRAPS HER LITERARY LIONS.
The Telephone Used by One Hostess
as Means Of Obtaining Guest
for Luncheon.

The hostess loved to have the sort
of guests that she described as men
that did something" and her speciality
was literary toilers. They seemed to
her mind to represent more real activ-
ity than any other occupation, al
though she was not averse to an occa-
sional singer or plano FOUNDER.
II was a devoted friend who used
to gather the literary big bugs for her.
This was the somewhat disingenuous
way that he did it.:
He used W cali up on the telephone
any celebrity who happened to be in
town at the time and invite him to
luncheon without mentioning the
name of the lady. Even literary lions
occasionally object to entering, al.
though under the chaperonage OF
friends, the homes of persons they
have never met.

the hostess would say over the tele-
phone when the invitation was &C.

II never occurred to Percy Pier
pont when he fell SO desperately in
love with the beautiful Lucille Bux-
ton that among the many specialties
of her fathers large importing bust
ness was that Of camel's hair.
Indeed, If such a thing had oc-
Cured to Percy at the time, 1t would
probably have made no difference. He
loved Lucille with passionate fer.
vor that no material interest semed
to affect. Perhaps it was true that
because of his delicate, almost ethe-
real, physique he seemed to be
capable Of higher flights of love. And
perhaps. also, because Lucille herself
was extremely practical. she loved
Percy more than If he were more ro-
bust, for there was about her feeling
for him something of a motherly in
stinct.
When the happy pair announced
themselves as having formed what
no one doubted would be a permanent
