Pleasant Hour Club.

Mrs. A. ]. Biegel, assisted by Mrs.
Ruckel, entertained the Pleasant
Hour Club last Friday afternoon, a
large number of the members being
present. Evidences of the approach
ing holiday season were given by the
wcrl; in the hands of the ladies, and
by the profusion of Oregon grape
with which the rooms were adorned.
During the afternoon there was a
guessing contest. Ten riddle rhymes
were presented for the consideration
of the guests, the answer in each case
being the names of some modern in
vention. The first prize, a dainty
sachet, was won by Mrs. Stannard.
For the consolation, which was an
"all-day-sucker," there were three
candidates. 1t was finally carried off
by Mrs. Wilson, much to the disgust
of the two unfortunates.
The serving of sandwiches, cake,
nuts and fruit juice was another fea-
ture of this very delightful session
of the club.

Cutting AgateS Is
interesting Process

The work of cutting agates and
other semi-precious stones is an in
teresting one. r. ]. Smith has re-
Gently added this department to his
jewelry store, the work being in
charge of w. B. Permission of this
city, who is an expert in this line OF
work. A Tidings reporter recently
visited the place and was shown the
modus operandi of the work. Large
stones are cut up by saw consisting
of sheet of thin steel or iron, rum
ming in water much after the fashion
of grandfather grindstone. The
shaping is done on carborundum
stones, which also revolve with the
lower side submerged in water. The
work is done with stones of varying
coarseness, the agates or other stones
being held on the end of a stick with
sealing wax and ground, the eye be-
ing the only guide as to shape and
size. t,t
The exhibit of cut and uncut stones
in the window is fine one, and one
which it has taken Mr.. Permission
years to gather.

ing to an encore. Mrs. f. e. Conway

The party given by the ladies OF
Trinity Guild Tuesday evening was
a success from every standpoint.
More than fifty attended and sub
stantial sum was received The par

Christmas time.

event number of the neighbors sur
prised her Friday evening. They
brought cakes, sandwiches and cof-
fee and spent the evening at Five

sion of the kitchen and dining room

The last hour or two were spent in
dancing-all the latest steps coming
into practice and receiving their
