MIR. RAMSAY'S LUNCHEON
 FOR MISS M'CANDLESS

Miss Edna McCandless of Atlanta, who has been quite raved over by so- ciety during her visit to MT. and Mrs. J. c, Maben, Jr, was the inspiration of a beautiful luncheon given yester- day by MT. Erskine Ramsay at the Southern club A long table was ar ranged for the guests, presenting a pretty picture with it's electric tapers surmounted by crimson shades, while at either end was an enormous bouquet of crimson and white carnations.
 Miss McCandless looked more than usually charming in a luncheon gown of soft blue, with which she wore a large white hat crowned with plumes, The coterie included several other pretty visiting women as well. The personnel of the party was composed of Miss McCandless, Mr. and Mrs Paschal Shook, Mrs. Walker, Mrs. E w. Barrett. Mrs. John l.. Kaul, MT. and Mrs. F. H. Crockard, MT.

She has the power to produce great re- suits from very insignificant timber A great artist can paint masterpiece with precious few colors-and you remember the story that was told of Ole Bull. how he evoked such heavenly music from a one-stringed violin. It's not the instru- ment but the musician who gets what lies deep buried in the dumb things breast that really counts.
 q know of at least dozen women who can make chicken pie out of cold roast beef. And one of the prettiest evening gowns I ever saw was really made out of>a pair of lace curtains" declared Num- Der Two.
 Made from a pair of lace curtains ?' gasped the woman. "Why, I can't be- leve it."
 Well, 1t happened right here in Bir- mingham," said Number Two. "A girl I know has the most ingenious mother that ever lived. In her home there was a girl from 8 little Alabama town who was viisting her daughter. She proba-

MEXICAN FINANCE
 MINISTER RETURNS

Cherbourg, France, March 2.-Joseph Limanteur, Mexican minister of finance, is c passenger on the North German Lloyd steamer Kron Prinz Wilhelm, which sailed last night for New York.
 Senor Limanteur is accompanied by the senora, the improvement in whose health made it possible for them to begin their homeward journey. The Kron Prinz Will helm should reach New York March '.
 In speaking of his expected return to Mexico recently the minister said that hs planned to proceed from New York by water to Yucatan for private visit there. 1ic did not indicate when he would be lively to continue to the capital.
 The minister has been in Paris since August last, having come to Europe to place bonds in conversion of the Mexican national debt to the amount of $110000,- COG. which has been accomplished only in par..
 In recent interview which attracted wde attention, Senor Limanteur said the only plan he recommended for the res toration of peace in Mexico involved the laying down of their arms by the revolu- tionists in order that the government might with dignity and honor treat with those wfo had endangered both the se- curity and the credit of the nation. This done, he was convinced that the various reforms, the demand for which was the geneslS of the revolution, should be grant ed after careful study and elaboration The only alternative he foresaw was long ard wasting struggle.

"A mans idea of a competent wife is one who can make a chicken piesout of leftover roast, and a ball gown out of an old lace curtain" clever woman quoted the other day in the course of conversation with another of her sex.
 Lots of women can do such things,' declared Number Two. "Give them any thing no matter how impossible, and leave your order. They can make a silk purse out of the most uncompromising piece of sole leather and they carry tho knack through life. Why lots of them even go to the extent of making over men and women I know a girl who married a man-about the least lovable and attractive man I ever met-and five years later she had him sweetened and softened and so humanized that you wouldn't have recognized him As the same person who stood up at the altar with her."
 Great responsibility rests with woman.

TEST COURTS RIGHT
 ID EXAMINE BOOKS

Washington, March 2.-Extent of power of the courts to examine the books of cor poratiens was the question raised in a series of cases before the supreme court of the United States today for argument
 William Dreier, secretary of the Lich- tenstein Millinery company of New York. and Christopher c. Wilson, president of the United Wireless Telegraph company, . Maine corporation. have both been de- clared in contempt of court in New York because they prevented the grand jury from examining books of their respective corporations In the former the grand jury was inquiring into alleged viola tion of the postal laws.
 In each case examination of the books by the grand jury was refused on the ground they might tend to incriminate. Each man is still claiming that to compel him 10 give up the books would be to in- terfere with his constitutional rights not to testify against himself

 were magnificently gowned and spark
 ling with jewels Promenading be- tween the acts I saw your towns
 woman, Miss Trmble, who was the center of an admiring group. She was one of the prettiest young women that saw, wearing some filmy cream even ing gown with satin underneath, and a broad band of silver in her hair. At Delmonico's where we went for dinner afterward I saw her party again. Each girl had a beautiful fan as a dinner
 favor. Saturday I was guest at a luncheon given by MT. B. c. Lyman for her at the Railroad club, a splendid building overlooking the Hudson and much used by the railroad officials in entertaining their friends. The view
 from the club varanda is magnicifent. The llncheon was charming, and each
 girl was presented with a bouquet of
 Parma violets. Miss Trimble, who wore blue gown and big picture hat
 with blue plumes, looked very chic
 with her viplets pinned on as a cor sage decoration."
