Please answer this in an early issue: | would like to know if a young man is expected to have visiting cards and what style is best. | wish also to know the address of a maga- tine on table etiquette and one on correct dress for all occasions. What is a suitable present for birthday of a girl friend of mine about nineteen years of age? W.B. A young man should have visiting cards, which he leaves when people are not at home, which he may hand to the servant to announce his pres- ence, to enclose with a gift and to present to an acquaintance he meets in traveling. Send me a self-addressed stamped envelope and I will send you the Information about the book on eti- quette. For the girl friend’s birthday I would advise sending her a hand: some box of fine confectionery or a box of roses. It is not considered good form to give things to girls un- less in the faniily or engaged. Books, magazines, flowers and bon-bons are always permissible. For a Home Wedding. At a home wedding, is it good form for the bride’s parents to be down- stairs among the guests before the ceremony, or is it preferable to have the mother come down on her son's arm just before the orchestra starts to play the weddingemarch? You may suggest a newer way. Is 1t still good form to have a bride's cake and have the bride cut into it? Should the bridal party be served in the dining~room first or last? ZILLA. The parents of the bride should be in the drawing room to receive the guests. They issued the invitations and are the host and hostess and should be In readiness for the arrival of the first guest.

It a boy takes you to some entertain- ment how can you thank him when you return home? “PERPLEXED.” Say “Thank you, I will be glad to have you go with me,” or “I have com- pany, thank you.” A girl usually walks on the inside the walk and sits on the left side at table.

MADAME MERRIL Buttons to be fashionable should be either very large or very small, A wonderful beautiful evening wrap of sllver gray brocade is finished with a ten-inch sllver fringe outlining the wide shawllike collar. The muffs are to be squarer even than last year, and instead of the fur toque there Is the fur bonnet, Fllet lrce Is much used for panels, yokes and undersleeves. Sometimes the figures are embroidered in colors to carry out a tone idea of the cos- tume. Soft feather breasts, made Into bands, with an upright feather at the side, form a smart and becoming trim- ming for some of the new velours shapes.
