As with everything élSe there is a right way and‘aléwr‘onag way in the manner of giving, whether it be an invitation, a pleasure, a present of money, or an ordinary gift. Seine.- make their offerings an insult, others invest them witha grace that enhances their value and give them a charm beyond themselves. ”Shaman come if you like,” is the .iormulm of invitation which some are :not ashamed to use. In all prObability they, mean to be pressing and ‘cordial, but they can find no better method of cxpressmn than this, Wthh sounds the jseryGQul, of grudging inhospitality. Akin to this method is the formal card of an intimate friend, without the East little word of special application tosoften the stately angularity of the bidding. The formal card, with the iormal name at the top, is intelligible enough.~ It saves‘troub'l‘e- and keeps the list straight; but those who have the special strain. ofgracef-ul consideration for the ieeli‘hgsof others know howto add just one-word, or two, to take off the stiff- ness—even as a lump'of sugar takes off the crude acidity of a lemon, a dash of hodwater takes off the chill of the cold. “Hope you can come,” after the for- mal announcement—“dear” before the dermal title—the smallest Sign of per- . . 301ml preference is: enough. The 31 inted formality then loses stiffness, and the general becomes the par ticular. Again, an invitation, to be welcome, must be possible. When you are in- vited to a manner of life to which you would not be equal in health or strength the whole matter is so much waste; as the invitation to a delicate aeptuagenarian to join a'rough kind of gypsy encampment, where the whole charm would'li‘é in the cleverness with which the most barren discomfort could be made endurable by shifts and Mom-cos, and where g01d spirits and great bodily endurance are of the first necessity; ' p , The most earnest and pressing invi- ration to join such a merry kind of rollick is as much out‘of place as the Men of1 a spirited mount to a paralytic, onthe transference of a concert ticket Hi) one stone deaf. All invitations to old people, indeed, need great care and delicate handling, else do they become replicas of that old torment created by the worshipers oiZeus and the other Olympians, when they flung Tantalus into Tartarus, and wered him the meat he could not eat and the water he might not drink. For even hospitality has to be mixed with common sense, and the great law of p1oportion has to be obse1 ved in this, as in all other matters, if there is to bé harmony and success.

The summer giil has a sireng pen- chant for chocolate mints. ' Conclude that you are growing old when life seems to be but a routine. One cannot be too, extravagant in age-matter of dress shields during the summer. On many p31ches these evenings the . autoharp is played in preference to lupin or guitar. The cucumber to be harmless must undergo pressing before serving, says aculinary authority. ' , Lovely summer hats at four and five mum eplace those. formerly shown hr ten and twelve. Why is it the young man of goody- . goody propensities always wea1s a. ' white satin bow-tie' 1n the daytime? To wait in a lawyer’s office one hour is to see all types of humanity evident- ly burdened with all types of trouble. Matting over the floors and no drap- eries; atnthe windows make .us feel cer. tain'thatzthesummer season is with us. It is said that a girl has no import- ance in women’s eyes befo1e she gets married and none in men’s seyes afte1- v1.3.1 d. The gay shirtings displayed at the haber dashers’ prove that the summer man intends to look quite as gay as the summer girl. There is hardly a woman living but J prefers having a photograph that, , fiat- ters her to one that can honestly be called a speaking likeness. How cross the manlooks who spreads out his newspipér full width and dis- i covers that the woman next him must either read the lines in front of her 'flce or assume blindness or Somnolency. When one has fussedthemselvos sick over summerfrOOks it makes us truly vexed to see the smart, ready-to-wear frocks in the shops, to be bought for half what we have expended in tiring 'efiorts athome. Whom Shall We Honor. ~Washington, D. 0., Aug. 4.-—Secre- tary Long has determined to appoint a special board to consider and recom- mend for pro-motion, officers below the grade of captain who deserve recogni- tion for gallant conduct displayed in the battle with Cervera’s fleet. The president will reserve the right to determine which of the flag officers and captains are deserving of recog~ nition. The cruiser Newark has been de- tached from the eastern squadron and Commodore Schley’s flag has been transferred from the Brooklyn to that vessel. The Brooklyn has been assigned to the eastern squadron. Orders have been given to Commo- dore Watson, but their nature cannot be definitely learned. The fleet has not yet started, how- ever, from Cuban waters. No News of Rev. Jernegan. Paris, Aug. 4.—-—The police here have thus far received no instructions to ar- rest the Rev. P. F. Jernegan of the Electrolytic Marine Salts Company of Boston, wanted in that'city on a charge of obtaining money under false pre- tences.
