able proposal.
Glorious weather favored the gath-
ering this year. The young women,
wearing the most bewitching cos-

to welcome their timid guests. As
they arrived, one of the prettiest

Long tables spread with appetizing
viands—all prepared by the fair hos-
tesses—were ready for the feasters.
But the time for eating had not yet
come. The young men had to listen
to a lecture by Miss !Dassys oia
"Women's Emancipatione'
aTiss Dassys apparently not only
convinced the bachelors of the pro-
priety of the entire proceedings, but
also converted them to other views

The dinner followedthe hostesses
taking their places first. Their
guests were expected to make their
selection by sitting beside them, a
feat they performed with surprising
alacrity,
The scene was most animated, and
a great erowd of amused and inter-

As a result, of the gathering twelve
