Gossip
COMPLETELY hypnotized by the symmetry
of her sllkep-clad ankles as she boarded,
with some difficulty, the Walnut street car, I
did not at first recognize her; not, In fact, until
we collided in reaching for the same strap.
Her face was clouded and the usually quite
maddening dimples had for the moment dis
appeared. "Oh, it's you, is )tt" she frowned; "I supposed
you were one of the customary crowd of males
who hold back and wait to watch us poor
women struggling with our narrow skirts and
those awful car steps. There was a time when
the men elbowed us out of the way during the
afternoon strap-hangers' rush, but nowadays
they all hold, oht so politely back, cloaking
their crocodile thoughts beneath the convention
of entirely assumed politeness."
With the customary hyena-like Joy expressed
wherj one hears of anybody being "stuck," they
are telling the story among the clubs of a trip
recently taken by a prominent middle-aged
Philadelphia gentleman to New York. It seems
that he is by no means of the sporty, bld
)iaded row, bright light type, but, on the con
trary, the sort we have been brought; up to
regard as of. the "old school" and, therefore,
scarcely up to date, Jlence. when he volun
teered to take two young debutante nieces to
the Big Burg on a sort of tour of inspection
ho did not quite realize what he was In. for.
Their first desire upon arriving was to tUU
a famous dancing establishment, where one of
the originators of the ultra-modern terpalchor
an art had established himself on a rmet. lux
urious sale. Having risen from a hotel bel-hop
to his present exalted position, he is now owe of
Kw York's Idols, or ideals, whichever ye
please, and he is. therefore, very expensjfo,

dnnco with the celebrated owner of the estab

nnd as tho girbj wero wild to bo nblo to return
to Philadelphia and boast of having actually
danced with so famous a personage; they
promptly accepted the Invitation.
Tlmo passed. He danced divinely, first with
ono nnd then with tho other. After each num
ber he would politely Inquire whether they
would caro for another and, overcome by tho
kindness nnd good nature, they wero only too
delighted. Finally tho shades of evening began
to fall and uncle suggested moving on. Ho
called for his check.

Itemized as follows:

Uncle didn't have the money with him, but he
humbly Inquired If they would accept a check
nnd, 'after a little matter of Identification, the
management graciously condescended. Needless
to state, tho llttlo New York outing was cut a
trifle shorter than had at first been Intended.

CHARITY AFFAIRS
Diocesan Fair at Horticultural Hall to Continue
Today and Tomorrow.
A veritable, midway, minus tho hawking
usually a dominant and most annoying feature
of tho typical midway, was visited, can be vls
Mtcd and. It Is hoped, will bo visited right here
in tho heart of town, where one can do Christ
mas shopping or afternoon tealng, all In tho
pleosantcst surroundings. This spot Is to be
found In tho ballroom of Horticultural Hall
from 2 o'clock this afternoon until 10 o'clock
tonight, likewise tomorrow. The cause of It
all Is the lack of funds of St. Alartha's Settle
ment House, nt 8th street and Snyder avenue,
and tho willing hand has been lent by the Epis
copal Diocese of Pennsylvania, who. In splto of
wars nnd rumors of wars, havo come to the aid
of this charity most nobly.
Alost of tho Episcopal churches in tho city
nre represented In some way, and booths have
been erected and decorated with most gratifying
results.
In one corner Is a delightful little nursery
filled with dolls of alt ages and nationalities.
After making a purchase one takes Dolly
across to the Aillllnery Shop, where the very
latost Alade-ln-Amerlca Idea Is exploited and
where Dolly selects a fetching bonnet to perch
n-top her elaborately colffed head. Another
very clover idea is the Automat, where 10 cents
secures the privilege of pressing the button to
see what will happen next. From there one
goes the rounds of cake and candy, chlnaware,
fancy work booths and fortune telling, with the
oblqultous "movie" as a wind-up.
A bevy of attractlvo girls as aids, in costume,
some attired in quaint creton frocks, with large
picture hats framing their pretty faces, others
garbed as nurses and still others as Fronch
maids, these last acting as lemonade venders,
add much to tho scene. Among thqse taking
part are SIlss Cornelia Leldy, SIlss Cordelia

of the tearoom. Mrs. Dorothy Johnstone Base
ler will play, ably assisted by several well
known musicians. Tomorrow afternoon, like
yesterday, will be given over to children, and
toys and balloons a-plenty will be on sale. Sad
to relate, yesterday afternoon many of the lat

they floated willy-willy, unheeding the wistful
upward gaze of their late owners.
