DINNER GUESTS.
Bad Enough to Pc Late. but to Be Too
Early Is UnforeiVabie.

1t Is an accepted aphOrism that one
should never he late at a duel or .
dinner. TardineSs Is unreasonable
but the converse is also true. IL II IS
an offense To- he late It is rnforgivable
to be too early This refers solely to
the dinner. since duels are affairs OF
the past.
Overhaste may be Gathering, but 1t is
also incOnsiderate. II the dinner IS
important enough TO be called "func-
ton" and the house In which it Is Civ

a mansion the early guest may find
a hostess still in her maids hands. II

to the salad In either case the hostess
feels a warm personal approval and
an ability for self praise if the coming
