EVENING PARTIES.
If people can afford to give large evening parties, it is less trouble and more satisfactory to place the supper in the hands of the confectioner.
For card parties or small companies of thirty or forty persons, to meet some particular stranger, or for literary reunions, the trouble need not be great. People would entertain more if the trouble were less.
If one has a regular reception-evening, ices, cake, and chocolate are quite enough; or for chocolate might be substituted sherry or a bowl of punch.
