Nvw YORK, July 6.-At warm weather
,..obson given in honor of a well-known
80 80 woman in Fifth avenue restau-
- last week the cloth was entirely of
ao1a green silk embroidered IN a running
FFa++arn of wild roses in natural colors In
.bo middle of the table was fat basket
-rovan Of green osier withes and crowded
nth a mass of the pale sweet-brier roses
.,+ With the dew on them from the cliffs
- the Palisades and mingled with trailing
r,arlands of the wild grape emitting the
FAINT. summery perfume of its yellow green
flowers. Up and down the table were dot
tod small. Venetian crystal glasses in green
oraone white lines, filed alternately with
briar roses and the more vivid pink, five
,,ataled hillside roses. Before every plate
vas a small flower basket in the shape of a
Garden hat made of osier withes and hold
;r, wild roses. At each cover also was a
crane leaf of p1pier mache so closely resem-
Fl Fling those in the center of the table as to
!. Iook as if it had fallen from them and bear
f no the menu. The table was lighted by
+ofI u,any-branched candelabra of pink and
white Dresden china placed at the four
corners and holding green and pink candles

,gara osier bonbon boxes filed with candied
roses and the marasqulm sorbet and the
4 ice cream were made up into roses of straw
berry. lemon, vanilla, pineapple and apricot
favors.
With the approach Of dog day heats the
H daintiDess and Rstheticism Of woman are
4 lavisbed more and more on the table. The
4 act of feeding with the mercury registering
g0o is gross enough to be repulsive unless the
appetite be tempted by sight of flowers,
fruit, soft colors and picturesque effects; at
/ least this is the feminine theory. Mrs
Annie Louise Cary-Ray mond before leaving
town for the summer illustrates the fact
that so simple thing as breakfast can be
made most impressive ceremony. Eight
people sat down before a cloth of white Irish
linen with square center cloth of blue linen
a embroidered with slightly conventionalized
flowers of the German, iris. outlined in blue
4 and filled in in white with honeycomb
stitches. In the middle of the
B table was placed a large blue and
white Sevres bowl wreathed with
vines and filed with blue and white
iris blossoms. Four similar bowls stood at
& the four corners. The windows of the diu-
ing rooms were hung with heavy brown
linen monte curtains embroidered with
stalks Of the blue flag couchsd on the sur
face with fax cord, while the sash curtains
# were of thin dull blue Persian silk showing
small white figures. Large blue and white
Maxim jars filed with blue-eyed grass,
sweet clover, blue succory and meadow
rushes stood about in corners. There were
no name cards, but broad white ribbon
embroidered with the initials Of the guest
Ia in blue was knotted upon the back of the
chair she was to occupy. Mrs. Cary-Rav-
mond, the sweet singer, wore blue velvet
with white lace garniture.
