unique and delightful affairs ever Civ

and Mrs. Duval's visits are always at
tended by a round of social functions
in their honor, which are particularly
enjoyable because they are usually

possess such rare charms and are
such gifted young women that they
are especially welcome visitors in

beautiful entertainments at her at
tractiye home that she has the repu-

Her guests were limited on this oc-
casion chiefly to the friends of the
honor guests and were about thirty

spirited conversations had been ex-
changed for a little while. little Miss
Elizabeth Hooker, who is the house
guest of Miss Goldnamer, passed a
basket from which each one present
drew a gay-c0lored silk spool and
needle, then a square of white cloth
with number in one corner on which
the guests were asked to etch an ele-
nhant. No end of mirth was evoked
while this difficult task was being ac-
complished, and when the results
we're displayed upon the table for in

each production.

bridges effort 10 be the most life-like,
