Miss Parsons (Christchurch) is the guest of Mrs. Peacock (Kelburne). . Very complete arrangements are being made for the sale of work and entertainments at St. Peter's Schoolroom tomorrow (Wednesday) and Thursday. This is such a well-known occasion, that they are sure of good patronage for their wares, which are always not high-priced, and the best of their kind. 'The committee of the Levin Memorial Home for Girls has issued invitations for i its gift tea on Tuesday, 25th, when friends are asked to take provisions, materials, or subscriptions with them. The dance given on the Tongariro last evening by Captain Parsons and his officers was one of the delightfully informal, but beautifully prepared for, occa-ns-,thafc b °ard-ship dances often are. lhe deck was covered in with flags, and arum lilies were the effective decorations against the gaily-coloured bunting. A most elaborate supper was laid in the saloon. The table was beautifully decorated with primroses and anemones. Miss Skerrett received with the captain, and wore a lovely gown of pale green charmeuse with gold trimmings. Amongst the guests were Mrs. (Dr.) Gilmer, Mrs. Dyer, Mrs. Jackson, Mrs. C. Turrell, Misses E. Ward, Seddon, V. Kennedy, M. Burnes, Tweed (2), Simpson (2), E. Dean, Miles (2), Butts, Milk (Melbourne), Ewen, and Stafford. King's Band supplied excellent music. The second function in connection with Mother Mary Aubert's Golden Jubilee will take place at the Newtown Park on Saturday, sth November, and will be in the form of a sports meeting and outdoor carnival. Various side-shows are to be a special feature of the function. The arrangements are being carried out by the following committee : — Dr. Cahill, Dr. Izard, Capt. Seddon, Messrs. J. E. Fitzgerald, F.

A general meeting of the committee will be held at Mrs. Macarthy's residence, Boulcott-street, to-day, when further details will be discussed and arranged. There is so much enthusiasm and interest being put into this carnival, and tho object is of such general sym.pathy, that a very general support is assured. . In a. month we shall ha.ye our Eoae and Carnation Show in the Town Hall. It will be wise for those girls who ioitend to go in foo." one> o( the decorated tables to be laying their pla-ns. This club is the only hoa-fcicultural organisation c-f our city, and all nxe anxious iit shall redound to our credit. The decorated tables aore a feature of the show, and provide am opportunity for a great variety oif aa'tistic arraaige-meait. A great deal of time and trouble is gone to by the commilttee to make our Roe© and Carnation Show a success, anid many patriotic citizens who are flower lovers will doubtless second their efforts in every way they can. Came has been taken not to clash with any country shows, consequently we may expect a number of emta-res from, outside 'disifcracts.

Mason's dancing classes were brought to a close last evening, when a most successful dance was held in Mrs. Mason's private hall, Ghuz-nee-street. The hall was decorated with coloured drapings, Chinese lanterns, and clusters of yellow broom. There were some exceedingly pretty dresses worn, among which were a cream net over a pale blue satin charmeuse, and a plumcoloured velvet with choux of pale pink chiffon. Another dainty frock waß a pale pink silk, with pearl trimmings. During' the evening, Miss Nannestad gave two recitations. All the latest dances were included in the programme, and all present had a most enjoyable time. Great alterations in the marriage laws of Turkey are being made by Jhe head of the Mahommedan religion. Discouraged by the enormous expense of marriage gifts and ceremonies, the young men of the country had postponed the dreaded day later and later, till weddings became alarmingly rare. The old traditional wedding fortn.ilitie- have been abridged and simplified; no money will now be paid to the bride's parents, and time and expense will be curtailed in every way possible. Also, young people who are of age may now marry without the consent of their parents. Wellington ladies now have the opportunity of consulting Mrs. RoUeston, Hair Physician and Toilet Specialist, of 4, Willis-street (over Carroll's).
