An Interesting Talk Series.


Through the enterprise and courtesy
OF Mrs. l.. A. Hurlbut, the ladies OF
Crescent City were privileged to enjoy
series of most interesting travel
talks" by Miss C. Dora Lieuellen OF
Jacksonville. These talks occupied
pretty nearly every evening or afternoon
OF the last week, and that the ladies OF
the place thoroughly enjoyed them was
atteSted by the attendance-which was
large throughout
The Monday, Wednesday and Thurs
day talks were given in the V. |. A..
hall; while those of Tuesday and Friday
were afternoon meetings at the beauti.
full Hurlbut bungalow. These home
meetings also took on somewhat the
form OF receptions, being attended by
some IS or 20 visiting and resident ladies
of the place.
Mrs. Hurlbut and her guest, Miss Lieu,
ellen, were in the hallway to receive,
and after short social time the lecture,
or (aS Miss Lieuellen prefers to call them
talks, followed. Her theme, "The
Greater Circle of the Orient" occupied
the five talks and the interest which
began with the first, continued undated
through TO the last, but few of the
ladies missing any of them. Miss
Lieucllen is most entertaining talker,
and in her travels has noted many of the
more commonplace happenings buI
rarely described by the average writer.
These, told in conversational manner,
Immediately arrest the attention of her
hearers, which is held to the close.
The Tuesday and Friday afternoon
meetings at Mrs. Hurlbut'S home were
of great social interest, as rarely has any
thing in the reception line here been SO
deliberately planned and carried 10 such
minute and charming perfection. AT
the conclusion of Miss Lieuellen'S talk
on Friday, dainty refreshments of sand.
witches, coffee, cakes, bon-bons and
saIted almonds were served and a de-
lightful social time enjoyed. The guests
were waited upon by young ladies of the
place. The Hurlbut home was beauti
fully decorated for the occasion and the
day was ideal. On Friday afternoon
the arrangements were much the same as
on Tuesday. But it was the final of Miss
Lieuelen's talks and the ladies reluct
antly said their farewells. Mrs. Hurlbut
needed no proof of her graciouSneSs as
hostess, but to emphasize her good will
to the Woman'S Club, she has turned
over the gross receipts of the course &c
that organization. Her kindness in plan
ming these delightful entertainments in
the interests of the club and the social
life of the place will not soon be for
gotten.

.FlCHU in GRACEFUL DRAPE
Pretty Idea That Might Be Copied by
Those DESTROYS of Having Dis
tinctive Appearance.

On charming little frock too new
to have been initiated as yet the
graceful fichu was draped rather open
ly to show a vest or tucker" of fine
white batiste, the unique openwork
stripes of which, running up and down,
we're simple rows where threads had
been drawn and the open spaces even
ly double hemstitched in black work
ing silk. The neck. edge of this was
rounded. and oval eyelets of the same
black working silk were threaded
through with little twisted cord Of
black silk, the tasselled ends of which
fell to the knot of the fichu.
The turnback cuffs were Of the
same hemstitched batiste, but with
the upper edges also double hem
stitched, giving a rather severe but
extremely up to date touch. A little
panel of the same was let in the skirt,
revealed by the side draping of the
gown fabric, and the waist line was
outlined by a cordeiiere of black silk.
This double hemstitching, which is
even more effective and new, as used
for dress trimming, than the single
hemstitch so much favored, by Pari-
sian modistes, is by no means trouble
some to work IL only care be taken to
take up the same number of threads
with each new knotting. 1t is worked
on the right side of the material, and
when done in a heavy silk thread of
contrasting color lends itself to many
charming combinations. In white on
white, however, 1t is especially adapt
ed for the borders of the new fichus,
and several rows can be wrought, one
beside, the other.
