Either is accepted as a token of friendship, jind is treasured as a souvenir and keep sake in every household where healthy sentiment abounds. The sending should not be neglected. An announcement or invitation should be artistic both in form and execution. We have beauti ful stationery, and have recently added a series of type by which the fine effects of lithography can be fairly imitated if not equaled. PARTY INVITATION«.
