ICE MATS TO PREVENT MELTING.

The fashion of using ice blocks and
trays to serve various things from,
notably sorbets. oysters, CLANS and
frozen fruits, whicl, is far from new here,
is in much favor in London this season.
At garden parties and dinners they ere
often in evidence. and various ways of
using them have grown out of their popu-
arity one suggestion which will be APP
preciated by any hostess who has been
bothered with the melting of the ice after
the block is on the table Is to Place 1t
on mat made OF fine white wadding
which is folded furry side out. The mat
is little larger than the ice, and such
OF 1t as projects beyond the block should
be lightly nuffed out uhus giving Il
pretty snow effect The wadding is
non-eonductor of heat, and moreover sops
up any moisture that may exude from
the ice block and SO keeps 1t dry, thereby
minimizing the chance of melting. An
other way Ia to set the large block on
a bed OF smaller pieces rather loosely
placed together, II possible on drainer,
as this allows the water from the melt
ing Ice to run of and so keeps 1t dry 1t
Is ON the same principle as the glass
