Having no tact for turning off these
things playfully, and as little disposition
to do so, she repealed them with a town

intT1sions and in less than a week
stopped the visits of Georges first and

conduct Evelina to his own house. for his
last hope of happiness hung upon this
last change of life. He allowed himself
but two days after his return to lay in
his store of provisions; and on the third,
at four in the afternoon, he led his wife
to their mutual home.
ITO this moment, my dear Evelina,'
said George, as they seated themselves in
their own habitation-"to this moment
have ! looked forward for many months
with the livelest interest 1 have often
figured to myself the happy hours that
we should enjoy under the common roof,
and | hope the hour has arrived when we
will unite our endeavors to realize my
fond anticipation Let U.S. then, upon
the commencement of a new life, inter-
change our pledges that we will each
exert ourselves to promote the happiness
of the other. In many respects, 1t must
be acknowledged that our views and dis
positions are different. but they will soon
be assimilated by identity of interest,
community of toll, and frank ana al
fectionate interchange of opinions, If we
win but consent to submit to some little
sacrifices in the beginning to attain this
object. Now, tell me candidly and fear
lessly, my Evelina, what would you have
me be, and what would you have me do,
to answer your largest wishes from your

II would have you rise when 1 do; reg
ulate your servants with system; see that
they perform their duties in the proper
way and the proper time; let all pro-
visions go through your hands, and de-
vote your spare time to reading valua-

commenced his studies with redoubled
assiduity. The community saw and de-
lighted in the change, and the bar began
to trembe at his giant strides in his pro-
fession. But. alasi his bliss was doomed
to short duration. Though Evelina
saw, and felt, and acknowledged the adj
vantages and blessings of her new
course of conduct. she had TO preserve
it by a struggle against nature. and, at
the end of three months, nature tri-
umphed over resolution, and she relapsed
into her old habits. George now SUR
rendered himself to drink and to despair,
and died the drunkard's death. At an

CHRISTMAS EVENING SUPPER
SERVED TO THIRTY GUESTS
Cold Foods Prepared the Day Before-Only
One Hot Dish Necessary-Use

\ woman who has but one maid need
not hesitate about inviting twenty or
thirty members of the family to Christ
mas supper, for such festivity Is really
a simple. yet delightful, one if the work
is practically done a day before the func-
ton takes place.
The essential part of the supper con-
sists i'm serving food which is prepared
before the time of eating, and if the
guests wait upon one another there is no
need for any to ne seated at table. Seats
are required. but they may be placed
about the room.
The dining table to be used may be the
sewing board. 1t is to be decorated with
holly, of, course. and if spray of mis-
tletoe is hung in the dining room it will
add to the gayety of the evening.
For food there should be cold meat and
one hot dish. The latter can be easily
managed by making it I'm chatting dish.

guests. One person is detailed to look
after each chatting dish

ed with holly.

guests to carve the turkey, etc. Thus,
confusion is avoided when the food Is
served.
A salad of some sort SHOULD be on the
table. and this one of the women may
serve. Another woman should pour the
coffee, that should be on a side table with
cups and etceteras.
Soup is not necessary. and would cause
another change of plates, which is UNI
desirable.
However DESTROYS all the company may
be of helping to take the plate to the
pantry after the meat course is eaten,
such work should be done by the host and
a few assistants, who have been specially
requested to help. Nothing is more con-
fusing than a rOomful Of persons trying
to remove soiled dishes.
Christmas would not be Christmas to
most persons without mince pies or plum
buildings and ice cream. This means two
different kinds of dessert OH the table
and while they are being brought from
the pantry the hostess can put on the
table the plates required to eat them
from.
The table should be laid before the
guests arrive. and all the cold food should
be in its place. Also chatting dishes
should be ready to light. All this work
may be done in the morning so the
hostess may rest before dressing to re-
ceive her guests.
