LET THE GIRLS LEARN HOW
Mothers often plead that they too
busy to give the necessary time to gar
nish and decorate their everyday dishes
If this is true, then let the daughters take
this duty upon themselves. We go
through our well conducted public schools
of the pupils and are often much sur
prised and pleased with the results. The
grouping and ARRANGEMENT of colors most
frequently in evidence are from sWudy

it is just as easy and much more crafty
ing to do things nicely as It is to fall into
ing methods, the first being the ordinary
one used:
STEW OF COLD MEAT AND VEG
ETABLES.
Cold meat cut into irregular pieces with
out removing the RrlSIie ana laI, from
mistaken idea of economy. Water and
vegetables are added to this and all
cooked together in a greasy gravy and
then dished up and served sans toast, sans
garnish of any sort
A GLORIFIED STEW.
And now behold the transformation OF
this indigestible. unattractive dish. when
a little taste and thought are expended
upon it.

thick. If very rare, all the better. Make
a brown sauce as follows:
Melt two level tablespoonfuls butter or
oil in saucepan and brown with two

and stir and cook until it boils. Season
with half a teaspoonful of salt and dash
of pepper. A tablespoonful of onion juice
may be used for a change. Now lay the
slices of meat in sauce and heat thor

the sauce over the meat and sprinkle over

served with a garden of vegetables. The
vivid contrast of cc.nrs of the vegetables
with the rich dark brown of the meat
and sauce gives a very tempting as well
as digestible dish. And no doubt in the
minds of many the comparison of names
would influence the appetite as well.

THE USE on GARNIsHEs.

One important branch connected with
the preparation of foods is too often neg
lected-the art of garnishing. And yet 50
closely allied is it to cookery that the most
sKliIul creaIlon OF the cuIlnary a+st ,is1i
maSter-hand touches that show in the
manner of decorating the dishes.
MEANING OF THE TERMS.
A garnish means a mixture of several
tasty morsels prepared in rich sauce.
These dishes are very numerous and the
various compounds derive their names
from that of the sauce in which they are
served; as a la pOulette, a Ia hnanc1ere
and SO on. This term is also applied in
another sense; meaning to fill up puff
paste cases or shells with small birds,
sweetbreads, mushrooms, chicken and
oysters and a rich sauce
TO GARNISH.
This means to decorate q dish with
something to add to its appearance and at
tractiveness. Suitable and appropriate
pound and ali tendency to elaboration
serving. Seemingly unstudied effects are
best, especially when the materials COM
c cefe ga 1n9 uis ns1itabe and SVerdone
effects IN this line are more displeasing to
persons of good taste than entire absence
of decoration.
WHAT MAY BE USED FOR GARNISH-
ING.
Besides the ever-useful and easily OBJ
terial that may be used for decorating the
various dishes. Among the green things
eres da Celery and leaves Gives
gherlxins, capers, small picked beans,
nasturtiums and even the homely cab
bage, when all else fails. For brighter
coiors we have picked beets, carrots, red
peppers and red and yellow tomatoes

taste as well as aid in carrying out many
little economies in the way of utilizing
various odds and ends that would other
wise be impossible.

THINGS TASTE BETTER
The individual who argues that things
knows nothing of the added pleasure and
he would derive from foods
more dainty served. The tired hungry
day laborer can satisfy his hunger from a

have the satisfaction of these two points at
least Champion Whitman. however. is an al
most sure winner against Black and Davis's
prospects with Gore are good. 1t will not be
surprising If the Americans make clean sweep
and send the visitors home without a point
But II the English players lose again to-
morrow they will still hope to retrieve them
selves in the National all-comers at Newport
next week. They ought certainly to make a.
better showing after the opportunity they have
had to size up the American game. Despite the
fact that the Americans won in straight sets
IL was great match.
The Englishmen struggled with characteristics

seemed as If their spirit and determination
would overwhelm the American champions.
There were no rests during the match. and the
British team forced the game savagely. Black
especially played brilliant and heady game.
His smashing was almost equal to Davis and
his backhand work was better. Barrett's vol
leying was rather weak.
In respect to the service the Engishmen
were again conspicuously deficient when tried
by the standard OF Ward and Davis. The latter
won point after point with his first ball service
stroke. and the inability Of the Englishmen TO
judge II threw their team work all out Of gear.
On the other hand the team work OF Ward and
Davis was very near to perfection. They lobbed
and smashed at just the right moment, and
when they ran to the net together they were
impossible. The variety Of Daviss strokes was
striking. He would smash with all his strength,
driving the Englishmen into the back court, and
then he would follow 1t with a stroke so deli
cate that the ball just dropped over the net
tween them. and drove straight at them in
turn. Ward, the coolest player in the country,
was scarcely steadier than Davis.
The match was by means one sided
