The Dinner Hostess.
it is lmuerntlre that the dinner
hostess be ready and unruffled by
baste, a littlo abend of tbe tiuio set
for ber guests to arrive. If clvllitj
counts at all, one's guests ure usually
on time. It la proper to wnit a few
moments for the late comers. Tbe
rulo lnid down by a clever hostess In

wnit dinner five minutes for an carl

It la not kind nor proper. to spoil
good dinner for many guests because
of thn Into arrivals of the few. It is
nrnnnr to announce dinner five mln
utes after tbe arrlvul of the last guest
unless we adoot tbe American rasa
Ion of having cocktails served in tbe
drnwinir room before dinner. Then
dinner Is announced five minutes after
that little ceremony is over. The con
