The invitations read as follows: At our house, on the night of I April first, Present yourself, our friend, for folly’s sake; Ready In cap and apron then to cook. It’s begged of you to wear no dress of fashion’s make. Ladies all shall cookies old time way. Fondant and fudge and taffy by the • rule. Oh, you, who know not skillets, recipes, Or sweets, fair mixtures—come and play the Fool; Look that the clock shall bring you here at eight. We’re yours, sincerely, PEARL COMER. MRS. E. G. STERNBERG. The house was beautifully decorated with red carnations and red crepe paper. The guests were dressed to correspond with she Invitations and on arriving were taken to the third floor one by one.wh'ere they were compelled to enter a booth In which was seated a palmist, who revealed to each of them their future. They were conducted to this place by bam lanterns. April fool pranks were freely indulged in, followed by dainty refreshments, one of the features being stuffed oranges and April Fool coffee.
