Cream white heavy lMnen paper, fitted in square envelopes, octavo size, is “de rigeur” for all formal correspondence; however, many tints of paper are also chosen. Robin’s egg blue and silver gray are very popular, while lavender, cafe au lait and pink have their vota- ries. A smaller size than the octavo, in similar color and quality, serves for note paper. All formal invitations for weddings and receptions, dinners and menu cards should be engraved upon fine white pa- per of exquisite satiny texture. Mourning stationery is of gray paper, bordered with black, the width of this edging decreasing as time elapses; this, of course, is marked in black. Hand- some white paper is also bordered and marked in black. For the season of half mourning an ultra fashionable woman uses Violet paper, bordered and marked in purple, while another selects silver gray paper, edged and marked in slate bronze. The “plain embossed” marking ss used by the exclusive, modestly ele- gant, both in and out of mourning. It is truly refined and lovely in effect if the die has been cut handsomely by a skilled artisan. Seals have by no means been discard- ed, and the dainty escretoire is not com- plete in appointments without the tiny waxen taper in a wee silver candle stand, accompanied with small silver snuffers to smother the little light after the perfumed wax has been used. Dinner cards and menus seem to | 2ave attained the height of artistic per- fection. For ladies of flowery taste there are cupids, bits of pink and white dimpled loveliness poised above the card amid fruits and flowers. The name is written below in silver or gilt; then there are butterflies, asparkle in gold and flecked in gorgeous color. These bid fair to flutter into the festivities of the winter, for all the modish importa- tions in gowns, millinery confections and bric-a-brac reveal the gayly devel- >ped moth.

Fashions for Mourning. All dresses for deep mourning are in e first period, and black silk fabrics and lace for the second; silks of violet, pansy, lilac, mauve, gray, black and white colors for half mourning during the third period. Widows’ mourning should be worn for a year and six weeks. | ‘ome even prolong the period to 18 months. In the first case lainage is worn during the first six months with crape; during the next six months silk and lace and during the last six months half mourning materials.

Two young men who were neatly duped by a good-looking girl at Mineral Springs Park not long ago have decided that there is no fun in riding on a to- boggan, anyhow. They were not ac- quainted with each other, nor with the young lady whose foresight proved such a source of embarrassment to them, but all three crowded together on the front seat of a toboggan car, with the girl in the middle. The principal feature of this slide is a darksome tunnel, where many cooing couples surreptitiously en- gage in osculation, and where the sur- roundings are generally masculine arms. When this point w&s reached each young man had resolved to kiss that girl. They did not time the oper- ution correctly, however, and when the ar emerged from the darkness the spectators sent up a mighty shout of laughter. The youths had been detect- +d in the act of saluting each other, for che girl had divined their intentions and nad leaned forward in the hope of pro- Guclng just such a result.—Philadelphia ack lainage and English crape dyring | ape are worn for a year, silk and lace , longer than threo.
