HOW TO WORD INVITATIONS.
A novel invitation to an evening party in honour of the coming of age of the daughter of a well known lady of society recently, was worded as follows: —• Wanted by a mother for her daughter, just about to attain her majority, several young ladies and gentlemen, including yourself, to act as companions for one evening only. They must be good tempered and of a lively disposition, as the young lady requires cheering. Salary nominal. Board, but no residence. Please apply at nine o'clock on the evening of Tuesday .’ The applicants found the entertainment thoroughly enjoyable, and the lady, Mrs Arthur Levy, certainly scored in introducing a little novelty on the cut and dried form of invitation, as well as in the amusements following for those who accepted it.
