Mme.

But she ha. refused these alluring offers, and afte, a long rest and series of visits t kinspeople and friends in Charleston she is going to Miami, Fla., and tr; her fortune along professional lines. London has two perennial bache- lors—William Gillett, 86 years old and a retired barrister, and Sir Harry Poland. who is 96, both members of the Bachelors’ Club—and plans are afoot to honor them and their achieve- ments on their birthdays in March, which fall quite close together. Like the late Marquess Curzon, Mr. Gil- leite’s hebby is to preserve the cus- toms and traditions of a past day, par- ticularly those pretty attentions which relate to sending flowers and candes and such gifts to every feminine friend who has entertained him dur- ing the year. He has been heard to comment very caustically that the younger generation rarely make calls of courtesy, still less remember their hostess by a gift of any kind. Sir Henry Poland, who bids falr to cele- brate his centenary, is still strong enough to visit his favorite club—the Carlton—at times, He takes a great interest in social events, but in re- cent years he has been unable to go to the levees at Buckingham Palace, though he receives an invitation, to- gether with other courtesies, from the royal family. Queen Victoria was young and very lovely when Sir Harry first donned wig and gown in the courts, and he has known every Brit- ish sovereign since, and all its great men and women as well. One of his early social activities, which he still keeps up, is to prepare a list of eligi- ble young men whom harrassed host- esses may invite to balls, Arthur - Meeker and Mus. Ryerson of Chicago have dis- covered that it requires some origi- nality to coax dollars out of the pockets of even the opulent citizens. The vanishing luncheon which Mrs, Meeker devised to raise funds to care for a host of poor and discouraged xiles in Bulgaria proved a s, for naturally fous to know just this form of entertalnment would be. It proved a delectable feast given by Mrs. Meeker to 20 friends and at the end she extracted @ dollar from each and the promise that all would invite 20 others, collect the dollar and bind them over to this continual performance. Begun in late November the vanishing lunch- eon still is golng strong and the fund swelling llke a Spring torrent. Mrs. Ryerson's idea for raising money for her country home for poor children was to give a fancy ball in her big barn in Lake Forest and have each guest come in the character, real or fictional, of some one they have in secret pined to be There were George Washingtons galore among the younger men and Alexander Hamiltons and_Thomas Jeffersons and old Ben Franklins, with martial heroes galore.
