The size Of visiting cards varies
slightly with the seasons; block. script
and old English lettering are the ac-
Cepted style.
A wOmans card in this country never
has any attempt at decoration. There
must be no gilded edges. crests or titles.
The name. address and the day at homo
are all that good usage permits.
A WOman's name bears the prefix Mrs.
or Miss. She never shares any title
conferred upon her husband. A woman

sional prefix on her social cards.
Generally the full name is better.

many Oldest daughters use Miss Patter-

A young woman during her first sea
son in society has no card OF her
own. Her name Is inscribed below her
mothers on a large form. Il IS suppos-
ed that during her first year she viii

A widow is privileged to retain either
her husbands Christian name. as Mrs.

who was her husband. She generally
uses her own first name with his last.

Sometimes a husband and wife may
share the same visiting cards Very

from a honeymoon. in sending q gift in
which the husband shares, or in any
joint answer to invitations. This form is
also sent with an announcement Of a
