dream of loneliness with its silver, cut
glass and beautiful china The center

carnations, while on the large, old-fash-
toned side-board and mantel Easter
Lilies lent their fragrance. The menu,
which was tempting and delicious, con-
sisting of all the delicacies of the season,
4 was served in courses and much good
humor prevailed around the board. The
place cards were dainty, hand painted
designs in green and gold, and each one
bore an original verse, all of which were
the product of an ingenious young
Richmond matron. The cards bearing
