The Necktie Clubb

There 1b an organization in Philadelphia known as the Necktie Club, the members of which have asserted their intention not to marry. Recently one of the members announced his engagement and was fined a supper by his fellows. He spread a fine repast for them, at which the menus were printed on white silk neckties, in small gilt letters. A pin, composed of a miniature silver spoon, knife and fork, adorned the center, while a portrait of the groom-to-be peeped out at the top under the words, “It’s on me.”
