Novel Euchre Party.

ms pretty card party was conducted
like cotillion and was a great success.
IL was given for forty guests and the
tables were scattered throughout the
large rooms OF a spacious country house.
In the first place, each guest found her
place at table with three others by
means OF a souvenir name card.
When all had arrived and were seated
at tho table the hostess was very par
ticular 10 personally introduce each
partner, If unacquainted. which made
every one feel more comfortable. Then
the bell rang and playing began, four
games were TO be played and the losers
were the ones to move, going to a table
for favors. These they gave to the win
to the table OF the loser, and thus they
met an entirely new set of players.
There was no counting OF scores-simply
the best three hands winning out OF
four, There were ten sets OF fayors
After five sets OF favors had been used
refreshments were served, then playing
was resumed until all the favors had
been used. AT the last each loser brought
an extra favor for her favored partner
merriment, as they were large paper
sacks blown out and tied at the top
with various colored ribbons. They we're
to carry the favors home in and they
were needed. 1t certainly was a very
jolly party and the idea Is adaptable TO
all card parties where the hostess de-
sires something out of the ordinary
Tho favors may be as elaborate as the
purse will permit. The ones at tho party
described consisted of bon-bons in fancy
boxes. imported chocolate. sisted nuts
in dainty receptacles, paper aprons, neck
ruffs OF flowers fans, parasols paper
hats. post cards. etc.
