Ladies evening teas vary much in their name and kind. They are all charming iof their kind. They are of universal prevalence. They are sometimes teas, then Whist teas, and Monday evening teas, and evening Kissing teas are growing in fashion among the fledsrliners. Sometimes Kit-Cat teas, and sometimes possum sup pers, and tne last oi au is caueu "Welsh Rabbit Parties." In this 'm I . town of blessed horoscope, an eve- ning tea is never "nothing but a gig gle, gabble, gobble git?' They talk over Church work and progress, dis cuss ethical and philosophical sub jects, sometimes tackle the weather. but never a word of gossip passes the portals of their ruby lips. We have but little personal 'experience of evening teas, but we speak where of we have heard. We had the honor of attending two evening teas recently in Edenton, and if they are taken as an example, evening teas are the sine qua non of rational en joyment. They are happy to a de- degree. Gossip had no place in the menu. xut we iook our pen in hand to say a word or two about the new social fad in fashionable life the "Welsh Rabbit Party'(i. e; tea).
