The feast was attended by the King

expenses were paid by Louis. 1t came
at the end of sthe day, when races and
other entertainments had been con-
cluded. Night had fallen and 1000
large flambeaux illuminated the extern

served.

The tables were served by 200 persons,
representing the seasons, fauns, sylvanS
and dryadS, with shepherds. reapers and
grape gatherers. Pan and Diana ap-

descended upon the tables. where they
served all sorts of rare dishes.
Behind the tables a giant stage sud-
denly rose up covered with musicians
who provided beautiful music. Encom-
passing the stage and the tables were
lovely arcades adorned with branches
of green and silver, through which
shone wax candles. The whole vast
Enclosure was encompaSSed with a gilt

The Kings of France were accustomed
to entertaining on a grand scale. Ul-

their ruin.

Sweet Nothings.

People who are in love are often ac-
cused of carrying on conversations with
out as much sense as canary birds.
Birds and lovers chirp away with their
sweet nothings and when they separate
they proceed to fill pages with similar
things. The amount OF sense to those
letters. it seems, is equal to the amount
of mucilage on the poor postage stamp.
There's just enough to stick, but no
more.
But there's something to be said in
favor of these love-wordS which have
the weight of toy balloons. They ex-
press what the lovers have on their
hearts and provide vents for the little
fires which are burning on the hearth
of Venus. The lovers are communicate
ing feelings rather than ideas and know
hat they are not debating in Congress.
We may not know much about logic
or science, but we realize that there are
lots of things in our minds that cannot
be stated like scientific truths. There
are sentiments which must be voiced
with color and emotions, which must be
expressed with warmth. This requires
a special language: its dictionary is
made up of the airy nothing which
stolid folks are likely to condemn.
When an old bimbo utters these sweet
w a JOAAAS 6AAAS AAAS WOASaS - -
like spare tires blown up but not put to
any immediate use. They are big bulky
affairs and hold lot of air. When
they are written down in bold mascu-
line hand and aired in court room the
balloon tire looks like an awful fiat.
But when young folks indulge in the
language of flowers and give their fervid
sentiments the air, there's no harm
done. All that's lacking is the proper
vocabulary. What is needed is the
poetic gift to make these favored words
solid enough to give the heart nourish-
ment.
Love is the raw material of poetry
and art. OF course, it doesn't turn all
lovers into artists or all parlors into
studios. We have so many now we can
hardly support them. But it does bring
out the artistic side of a persons nature
and lends perfume to an otherwise dull
personality.
The sweet nothings which we gurgle
when we are in love are like bubbles on
the surface of stream. They come to
the surface, swell out and sparkle for a
moment and then are gone. Then come
more bubbles and gurgleS.
If there were no more to love than
these meaningful murmurs, the human
heart would pass out. But, just the
same, these birdcalls have their place
and are all right if VIC have sense
enough to sign of at the right time.

Louis the Fourteenth of France ate
a frugal breakfast of bread and wine,
but before the day was done he put
in some very good strokes at table, for
he really loved food.
He ok his dinner alone and in con-
siderable delight, eating heartily of
three courses and a dessert, but supper
found the princes and princesses Of
France sitting down with him. Mean
time, a numerous company Of courtiers
and ladies stood around. while six
noblemen were stationed at each end
of the table to try the meats before
they were offered to his majesty.
Every evening a lunch was prepared
for Louis in case he should wish re-
freshments during the night. 1t gen.
orally included a bowl of soup, q. cold
roasted chicken, bread, wine and water.
While travelling the King always had
his coach well stored with fruits, meats
and pastry. But these were not for
himself, since he never ate between
meals, but for the ladies accompany
ing him. 1t should be stated that he
seldom allowed any one but ladies in
his coach.
The journey would not have pro-
ceedeC more than a league before he
should accept refreshments. It gave him
great amusement to see them eat OF
course they had to devour everything
in order not to incur his displeasure

this sort of thing, however, bear In
mind two things-first. that there Is
every reason to believe that before the
Spring has passed the sleeveless dress
for daytime wear will look quite passe,
and, second, that by the time Spring
has passed you will feel inclined to wear
the dress without the jacket. II you
do not want a dress with ful-length
sleeves you may choose one with the
new short sleeves. which may come to
within an inch or so of the elbows. or
may form merely short caps over the
shoulders.
Jabots are among the late nineteenth
century fashions that have been revived
this Spring, and one of the easiest
ways to give a new touch to last sea-
sons blouse or dress is by means OF
some sort of jabot trimming. This

Hats were all quite large, which in
itself was q departure from the past
seasons. She saw the old familiar baku

It was evident that furs would be

the back of the neck closely.
One hat Of faded raspberry straw
was large, with intricately cut brim. Its
only trimming was band of ribbon.
Another French importation was of
tan panamalac with black cire ribbon.
A straw hat had its brim slashed and

this hat omitted the groSsgrain binding
and used satin ribbon for bow.
For wear with an afternoon frock was
lacy straw or black and white. 1t was
made turban fashion, fitting the fore
head closely in front and then turning
itself back and up at sides and across
the back.
All the hats left the face well ex-
posed, so Nancy decided she might as
well begin to smile and look cheerful,
since she could count on no shielding
kindness from the hat itself.

As a rule they have only minor feeding problems. with which to contend, and most of them have solved these difficulties, he said.
