INSIDIOUS EDUCATIONAL An essoclatlon NOTES. Are Tall vases full of flowers are not used, the center of the dining table nowadays because they obstruct the view, and make conversation across the table almost impossible. The graceful baskets, with or without handle, which are brought in silver glass, china or even straw, make beautiful center-piece- s. Purple and pale yellow make a cool and beautiful combination ofj colors. Lilac combined with huge bunches of very pale blue forget-me-no- ts make an odd but attractive decoration, and sweet peas of all shades or asparagus ferns with maiden-hai- r are always attractive. At a dinner you should use lighted candles. Very beautiful shades are now made as follows: A design of flowers or of leaves is worked in beads the natural color of the flower or leaves. Each flower or leaf is then cut out and fast-tenon a little wire frame, so as to form a graceful design which entirely covers the frame; at the top is fastened a row of large cut glass beads of the principal shade of tha flowers or leaves; and at the bottom is fastened a row of deep fringe made of small beads of the same color. Very pretty little shades are made of row after row of narrow gauze ribbon sewed on a piece of gauze the size and shape of the candle shade frame. Fruit is often served as a first course even at dinner Instead of hors dceuvres. A very little soup should be piu in each plate. Fish should be served next, then an entree. Two entrees may be served if you wish. Then the roast and vegetables. Then game and salad; and last of all. the dessert which comprises ices, then fruit and bonbons.

He was not particularly bright, so his father determined to send him to college. Shortly after his arrival in New York he made the arqu ilntance of an actress whose dramatl : ability was confined principally to her pedestrian performances. Her name was Blanche. Blanche soon discovered that her admirer was the scion of a wealthy and aristoi ratlc Philadelphia family, and she determined to set her cap for him. As Seymour was a very su cc;it-Ibl- e young man, she met with hut 11 tic stri-ildifficulty.

It was generally- - unde.st o.l that they were engaged. Mr. Chaplain, Sr., wis very .liberal in supplying his son's wants, bur the extraordinary demands made on him finally excited his anxiety. A report came to his ears that his son had presented an actress with a very expensive diamond ring. Seymour was somewhat surprised when he received a letter from his parent to the effect that he, the aforesaid parent, would be In New York next day, as he desired to see himself how much progress the young man was making in his' studies. Seymour showed the letter to the object of his affections. "Don't despair, he said; the course of true love never did run smooth. As sodn as we are married we will surprise the old gentleman And ask his forgiveness. He will grant It on the spot, and you will be admitted into the most select circles of Philadelphia society. This was what Blanche wanted very much, but she had her misgivings.
