The elegance Of table depends very
essentially upon its napery. The plain
cst of meals is made banquet II the
tho linen be fresh, fine, and smooth,
and the most sumptnous repast can be

long side panels taper slightly toward
their lower edge, and the space between

peats headed by bow. The result isia
garment which seems to be pasted to-
sehor, from the absolute impossibility
Of folds that spring abruptly from o
straight piece Of stuff.
