brother up. and you have food for

which, to say the least, must have been
queer. or else it's just man, you

TALKING of dresses, l saw so many
l lovely ones at the Assembly on
Friday night I could not tell you all
about them on Saturday, but l want
10 tell you today of the darling dress
that Mary Bayard wore that night. 1t
was made of the most exquisite white
ace over pale pink satin and the bodice
vas fastened at the left side with bow
Of white tullc. She had little straps nf
pink satin over her shoulders, and she
looked lovely.
Mrs. Norton Downs were a superb
dress of gray velvet embroidered in
rhncstoncs and made with a train,
which came from the waistline, not
court affair, but to my mind it was
more stately.
Mrs. James Starr wore gown Of
sapphire blue brocade embroidered IN
rhnestones. 1t was cut square ut the
neck and had train. And there were.
lots Of other beautiful frocks.
pILLY'S auntie sent him linen
- book for Christmas. A beautiful
story Of Peter Rabbit" and ever
since that feast day Master Billy has
walked about the house with Peter
Rabbit under his arm. Mother has
shown him the pictures and so has
father, and his brothers and sisters
have told him the story, too. Billy,
who is two and one half years old.
smiles gaily at it all and holds on to the
funny book.
Mother wondered what was going on
IN the wee mind about it and SO the
other day as he came into her room
WIN the, book hugged tight she said:
p,, Mhat have you got in your book,
And with broad smile Billy replied
10 his soft little voice: Pages"
