Democratic Sentinel, Volume 22, Number 6, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 12 February 1898 — A Valentine Luncheon. [ARTICLE]

A Valentine Luncheon.

On St. Valentine’s Day a luncheon carrying out heart-shaped decorations would be a unique affair. The center of the table should be adorned by heart-shaped floral pieces composed of carnations. Crystal candelabra with red candles, each alternately screened with red hearts and bows and arrows should be placed in the middle of mirrors at either end, and three heart-shaped crystal dishes should surround, each candelabra and contain heart-shaped bonbons and cakes. Several gold cupids should be suspended over the table and a broad red satin ribbon should be inscribed with the words: “St Valentine, 1898.”
