The home of the hostess had been
decorated simply but artistically. in
asparagus ferns, New England bay
berry and Christmas holly. The guests
were cordially received by the hostess
and invited into the living room,
where seated around a cheerful fire
nimble fingers busily piled needles
and soon a large basket of hemmed
tea towels and dust cloths, intended
as a gift for Miss Mcdowell, showed
the result. The bride-to-be chatting
meanwhile among her friends showed
the happiness that their thoughtful
ness was giving her.

| There was a lot of fun strung out
in an intensely interesting way in
"The Appearance of Evil" the pic
ture at the Temple last evening.
There was the old lesson for gossips,
which they will never learn; and an
other lesson which we are afraid
some people will never learn-that
they sho wup mighty plain on win
dow screen when the light is on the
other side of them. The story wound
up, not with good overcoming evil,
but with good being just a little
darned bit too smart for evil, which
seldom happens in real life.
