The sale includes every piece of mer-

Spring season, due to the cold, wet
weather has left an enormous stock
OF ready-to-wear Spring and Summer

duce this stock Daniel S. Laub, the
proprietor, has decided to hold this
sale at this time of the year, giving
the people of Wilmington the advan-

one can almost have a full season

The Question Of lntroduotons.
The question Of introducing seems to
be a perpetual worry to some people.
The following suggestions may be
helpful:
The first thing the introducer should
remember is TO pronounce the names
distinctly. A rather distressing occa-
sion that gave a feeling Of discomfort
and dislike on one side and an agoniz-
ing remembrance on the other was
where a lady on being introduced to
another made a remark concerning a
third party which. while not deroga-
tory, might have been somewhat more
complimentary. To her dismay the
second lady remarked: "Yes. have
noticed that popularity in Margaret
She ought TO break herself Of 1t. She
is my sister. you know"
or course lady No did not know,
but there existed a GOODNESS forever
thereafter. II the names had been dis
tinctly pronounced the incident could
not have occurred.
IL is an accepted fact that each in
dividual is not TO be introduced to all
those present where an affair is at all
large-only to few Immediately at
hand who will, most likely, in turn in
troduce her TO others. It is also an ac-
cepted fact that IL guest is departing
Just as another is arriving they need
not be introduced unless there is rea-
son for presuming they are to meet in
the future, so an introduction is su-
perfiuous.
A young woman is always presented

dies and gentlemen are presented to

A young man Is presented TO an
older one. and men always shake
hands. whereas this need not be fol-
lowed unless desired by two or more
women introduced.
A hostess makes her greeting the
more cordial by shaking hands with
her guests. IL seems more hospitable.
but It is not at all obligatory. Some
tactful remark as to mutual ac-
qualntances or neighborhoods or possi-
bly, some taste for Shakespeare and

the ice when strangers are introduced.
