o BUBBLE PARTIES. ONE of the most amusing, as well as easily arranged entertain ments for the Holidays, is a."Babble Party." Twenty or mare ladies and gentlemen, enough clay pipes so each will have one, three or four bowls of soap-suds, and. say, half a dozen trifles, for prizes, are all that is required, the prizes to be awarded to those who blow the largest bubbles, one of the party to act as referee. Tlie suds should be of IVOAY SOAP, as if gives a clean, white, and abundant h-.ther, with rut entire freedom fern oil or grease; and as the ma-re <>f which it is made rre so clean and pure, it is not at ail o .". ;-. ;••> the rmeil or tn te, like ordinary soap.
