A Pittsburg society woman, Mrs. Ed wsrd Vose by name, has happily ap plied the title "Vosemary” to the new residence destined to be a rendesvouz for her fashionable friends. These two examples show' the scope for ingenuity, wit or sentiment in the naming- of a residence. It has ' been the custom, among Atlantans, to give a name to their country places, following the cus tom of ante-bellum days, when the country estate was known far and near by its real and proper name. Many of the handsome places along Peachtree road and diverging thorough, fjres are well known by their names. Very Names Suggests Hospitality.
