Calendars make appropriate prizes. Across the pages of a simple one, if the hostess have a talent for jingles, she may write a couplet for each month, and thus make it a really prized souvenir. On the cover of one such I saw—
"Days of busy, busy hours, Days of idling among flowers, Days of joys and days of sorrows, Dark to-days and bright to-morrows; Days of health and days of weakness, All make up the year's completeness." |
