Llurary Pr??a. J>
Gorald Bra brook wm the typical so
cial bachelor. He played with equal
grace the role of guest and host, and
hence was exceedingly popular. It
struck him suddenly, however, that
such little functions as he wns In the
habit of inltlatlug were too formal, too
elaborate. They lacked the personal,
Intimate charm of hospitality in a
domestic Hitting.
He decided to do something quite
different from the conventional thea
ter restaurant dinners or automobile
parties uih>u which his reputation had
been built. . , ,
After some little meditation he decid
ed to entertain a very few Kuests at
dinner In his bachelor quarters I he
iltNt thing, of course, was to gravely
For*.?
time Madeline Cay lord's name headed
an imaginary list In complimentary
Isolation. Gradually, however, other
names to the number of five were add
ed. The date was next arranged for
and the Invitations to "a most in
formal dinner" Issued.
The most Important feature being
thus dismissed. Hrabrook turned his
attention to the minor details Incident
to a simple house dinner party.
Inventory of his household assets prov
ed appallingly negative:
Xo dining room table.
No table linen.
No tllshes. c ! r
Plenty of wineglasses. ?
No sliver.
Two caudlestlcks.
Well, he could hire the table linen,
the tllshes and the silver from a cater
er. but he preferred to buy It. It waw
a plt> he had not allowed himself a
little more time for preparations. A
week furnished a narrow margin.
Realizing that no time must be lost.
Gerald first purchase^ a mahogany
dinner table, round and large enough
to seat six COZll.v. Elated over Its ac^
qulsltlon and congratulating himself
upon having had the remarkable fore
sight to Invite Just the right number ,
to surround it, Brabrook attacked t o
next Item on the list with a vim bor
dering upon enthusiasm.
?Til ask Madeline Gaylord to help mo
out." he said to himself confidently
and then Immediately retracted the
decision. No; he must do this thing all i
himself. Simple as the affair was to Ih\ 1
no woman should have the <redlt of
having engineered It
With the help of a very affable clerk
(Jerald selected a dinner cloth, napkins
and appropriate centerpiece. It quite
astonished him to find out liow really
expensive such everyday essentials
were. He appreciated now for the
tirst time why brides were supplied
with "linen chests" as well as trous
seaux. ? ?
It must be a great help to a young
husband not to have to buy a lot of
?uch things all at once. The purchase
of the silver Gerald thoroughly enjoy
ed. and with very conscious pride lie
ordered his Initials engraved upon euch
' Gradually everything upon the list
was checked off. and he was free to
give his attention to the menu. This
being quite In his line, all arrange
menu were soon concluded and left
in charge of an expert chef.
\s n master stroke of Informality,
however. Gorald decided to serve the
dinner himself. To this end he consid
ered a rehearsal necessary. Accord
ingly on the night preceding that for
which the dinner was scheduled be
rolled tho new mahogany dlniug tab e
into the middle of his not overspaclous
living room and reluctantly hid IW
polished surface under the damask
cloth.
A cut glass cigar holder, punctilious
ly placed on the center, represented
floral decorations. (He should have
American Realities for the dinner It
self. Madeline liked them.)
In the midst of sorting out the shin
ing silver Into sets of six Gernld was
called to the telephone.
"Hello!" he answered. "Wlv? Miss
Gay lord? Well, send her right up."
There was no time for trying to un
derstand this most extraordinary hap
pening. Gerald could only conclude
that Madeline In an Impulse of gener
osity had come over to offer her as
sistance. Rut Madeline unchaperonedt
'"This is awfully good of you, Made
line." he said, with warm cordiality,
ushering her In. "1 am really In a hole
over the arrangement of the silver.
I?o the spoons go here at the right or
at the top or"?
"Just wait till I get my things off,
Gerald, and I'll help you," Madeline
Interrupted gayly. "Oh, Isn't It going
to be fun?"
Gerald In a bewilderment of aduilra
tlori watched the long coat fall from
Madeline's graceful Rhoulders.
"A dream!" he murmured sotto voce.
Madeline blushed becomingly.
"Well, you certainly act as If you
were In one, Gerald," she commented
lightly. "Come, let's set the table.
Oh." she broke off, laughing, "how
awfully funn* that cigar holder looks
In the center of the table! You certain
ly aren't going to have It there. This
Isn't a stag dlihier, you know."
"Oh. that's Just a dummy," Gerald
answered condescendingly. "There are
to be American Beauties."
??Where we they?" demanded the
t :Utress of ceremonies.
"Oh. let's not put them on now.
They'd wilt," said Gerald whimsically.
''And, anyway, they haven't come."
"Tben- ttw time being I'm gol&g
to use these I'm wearing," Madelio*
announced.
Gerald, entirely forgetful of the un
shared glory that lie had coveted,
stood watching Madeline as she deftly
distributed the sliver on the table.
Her small, shapely hands seemed fairly
to twinkle.
"Come, Gerald; make yourself use
ful," Madeline chlded laughingly as
she looked up suddenly and became
conscious of his attitude of Idle admi
ration.
Gerald obeyed.
"I hope the others won't get here be
fore we're ready," she added excitedly.
"Wasn't It lucky I happened to come a
little early? You see, Mrs. Sinclair was
delayed by"?
But she got no further with her ex
planation.
Gerald's beluted gasp of "The oth
ers!" startled her into abrupt silence.
She stood staring at him In painful
embarrassment.
"It Isn't possible," she Anally man
aged to ask blui, "that I've come on
the wrong evening?"
Gerald made a heroic effort to put
Madeline at her ease. Of course it was
her mistake.
"Well, this was Just Intended for a
rehearsal, you see. The real thing 1
bad planned for Thursday, tomorrow
night, but I'm awfully glad that you
happened"?
"Gerald," Interrupted Madeline dra
matically. "Ibis Is tomorrow night. T
mean It's Thursday night. Ask any
one? ask the hallboy."
For a moment Gerald looked stupe
fled, but In a flash his natural social
tact furnished a way out of the dilem
ma.
"Finish setting the table, do, Made
line," he urged. "Just hunt around till
you find things. I'll go telephone the
chef to get something over here in the
way of food, lfs lucky I planned an
'Informal dinner,' Isn't It?" he added,
appreciating to the full the humor of
the situation.
It was some little time before Ger
ald aud the chef were able come to
an understanding.
"llang It all!" Gerald tlnully called
over the wire. "Never mind what's
happened. 1 want a dinner served at
my rooms tonight no matter when I
ordered it."
"But you ordered It for tonight, sir.
This Is Thursday," thundered back
the chef. "Of course It will all be
there."
80 It was his own mistake. In his
enthusiasm he had lo?t track of the
days.
When Gerald came back to Madeline
he found her surveying the table with
an air of very evident approval.
"I like your tablecloth. Gerald," she
commented admiringly. "It's a beau
ty."
? "It has one drawback," Gerald said
solemnly. "It's the only one I have. I
shall be forced to starve while It's be
ing laundered. By the way, have you
a linen chest, Madeline?"
"Why, of course not," Madeline re
plied. "Only enguged girls are inter
ested lu those."
"1 should think It would be great fun
getting one ready," Gerald ventured
courageously. "Shouldn't you, dear
est ?"
Madeline did not answer, but she felt
that Gerald must hear the mad beating
of her heart as he stood there behind
her chair.
"Look-up. little girl," he asked ten
derly, "and tell me that I haven't wait
ed all these years In vain, watching
you grow up adorably sweet and beau
tiful. You do love me a little?"
Madeline looked up, and Gerald bent
over to kiss her smiling eyes and lips.
All too soon the Insistent telephone
brought the lovers back to reality.
"The others," exclaimed Madeline,
jumping up. "Gooduess, how does my
hair look?"
Hissing and Encore*.
Hissing tn playhouses hnd Its orlglu
In Paris In 1(180 on the occasion of the
presentation of Fontenelle's tragedy,
"Aspar." Trior to that time suffering
audiences were wont to yawn audibly
and fall asleep when the apathy of the
actors and j?-rforuiances Justified that
course. But on this occasion the In
dignant audience, driven to despera
tion by the platitudes of Aspar, voiced
their auger by hisses which drove the
actors Into temjiorary retirement, ac
cording to the testimony of the poet
Rol, who alludes to the incident In his
"Brevet de la Culotte." Hissing there
after became fashionable.
The first encore noted In the annals
of the stage was accorded to Llvlus
Andronlcus, a Roman actor. He was
popular with the masses and was
called back so often to repeat his
speeches that in self defense he
brought a boy to declaim for hltu while
he himself applied the gestures. While
encores became the rage In subse
quent ages, It Is known thut Andronl
cus' plan of having an understudy be
fore him before the audience to share
his. honors has not generally been
adopted by Thespians.? Show World.
Lord Dudley's Remissness.
Sydney Smith narrated a number of
stories of the absentuilndedness of
Lord Dudley, a warm friend and pa
rishioner. Iji the street one day Smith
was umused by Dudley's overtaking
him, linking his arm in that of his
pastor and telling him In all earnest
ness that be should like for blm above
all things to meet Sydney Smith, j
Without revealing his Identity, Smith j
returned that he had met the man on I
several occasions and hastened away.
One Sunday Dudley occupied a seat
almost directly under the pulpit where
Smith was delivering one of his strong
est sermons. Glancing down, he was
forced almost to laugh outright as his
lordship, grasping his heavy cane,
knocked on the door and ejaculated
"Hear, hear!" evidently thinking he
