Smart Stationary.


Pure white Is the most elegant style
Of stationery. especially for an elderly
woman. For the debutante tinted
paper Is In very good taste. This comes
In pale salmon, oyster blue and dres-
den. Well in from the edge Of the
sheet and envelope runs fine hair line
In darker shade to harmonic with
the lighter tint For instance, the
salmon paper has a dull rose line and
the oyster blue cadet blue hair line.
Formerly a monogram was engraved
In a corresponding shade in the corner
of the sheet, but fashion no longer de-
crees this.
The correspondence paper for an old
er woman is more than ever elaborate
this year. One style In pale French
gray, with heavy monogram in silver
and black, is decidedly distinctive.
Likewise q natural colored oak with a
dull brown and gold monogram, or
perhaps the shaded tints of lavender
and violet, with two tone silver mon
ogram. are in good taste for woman
who wishes something that will truly
bespeak her personality.

Restaurant Etiquette.

There should be no conspicuous con-

The end of the meal should be fol-

door the gentleman will receive his

on entering. Here there is call for q

When Women Call.

Ceremonious calls are not made be-
tween women In the morning, evening
or on Sunday afternoons. A man. ow-
ing to the exactiops of business, may
call in the evening and on Sunday aft

A woman should never call on man
socially. A business errand Is the only
occasion for a call from a woman to a
man, and in such case the lady calls
during his business hours and sends in
her name, not her visiting card.
