of arguing the matter after this. A call Is

to deny themselves . .

tImes In order to reserve LImo needed for

Prple who do not cal upon regular v ( sit.

r whether one bas or has not a visiting day I
Is so polo and honest and excusable wihal i
. to plead nn engagement of some sort thai L
requires ono to bo excused from seeing
chance callers , the latter cannot posslbl ) '
take ofenso If they are sensible. And those
who are not sensible wIll bo mollified by the
fact that the usage In good socIety has
come Iii wIth n vim that promises permn-
.
. nency.
In addition to caving the consc'enecs ' tf

reglmo ol aSllng to be excused Instead of f
- sayIng one Is nut Is a decent consideraton
for the morale of the sen'al\t. The most
Impassive servant always betrayed the Ito In
repeating a not at home order when It was
untrue , certain
n seU-consclousness which ,
try as the maid or footman would , did not ap-
year cIyII. Moreover , not Infrequently the fum- I
ly carriagE at tie door or some other sign I
betra'cd the presence or tie mistress within , I
though she was Invisible.

; Menu cards should never under any circumstances -
' cumstances bE used at 'n ' private dinner.
Each guest accepts whatever Is served , and
eats of I , or at least must have the ap-
Ilearnnce at so doing. I Is an evidence of
: fine breedIng to seem to be happy whether
, ' one Is content or not. To be able to accept
the situatIon as It Is , even though the food
nnrl sentIments be not In accordance wIth
, his own thinking , Is an accomplsbm nt very
. desirable n the diner out. Formal dinner
I parties In these days , when given after the
' . , style of the lusslls : , Is made so easy that
both host and hostess have nothing to do
but malI themselves agreeable to their
' _ guests. H Is courtesy for the host to di-
c rect , as It were , ratler than sustain the
) conversatIon hlmselr. not forgetting to use
tact In drawing words from the tImId , who
: are usually silent , and coming to the rescue
or thosq afflIcted with embarrassment , which
is n twin brother to awkwardness. On the
L other hand , guests must not forget that at a
. . dinner , as on all occasions of hospitality , It
- Is their chief duty to relIeve their entertain-
I ers from any annoyance or care , wIti the
, knowledge that tIm dinner Is not with -
ply for the purpose of giving a material
pleasure. Good talkers arc Invaluable at a
.t1 dinner party but good listeners , took come
' In for their share of welcome. "Silence
, when ' nothing need be said Is the eloquence
at discretion. "
A very pretty fancy Is to get a carpenter
to make n lIttle low table of pine and then
to enamel It yourself ' wIth white paint. I
you want something mora expensive have
it made of cherry and then paint I wIth n
cluster of magola blossoms or chrysanthe.

And every now and then some inventive
