FOR AFTERNOON TEA
The Tea Tray Has Taken the Place Of
tho Table In Smart

The tea table, according to Harper's Ba-
Ear, Is no longer considered proper piece
Of furniture for the living room or the
parlor. The new fashion Is to have the tea
tray brought into the room and placed on
a small table ready for the purpose. The
table, which should be low and convenient
for the hostess in her easy chair or rocker.
is one which is ordinarily used to hold a
book or two, or a bowl Of flowers, easily
removed On the tray Is everything nee
essary, the kettle ready for lighting, tea
caddy, tea pot, cups, etc. After lighting
the lamp the waitress brings in the cake
and sandwiches.
Better even than the tray are the
wheeled tea wagons, which have only re-
Gently appeared In American shops. They.
are expensive, but very convenient. not
only for afternoon tea, but in the sick.
room. They have numerous shelves, and
the whole tea paraphernalla. including
sandwiches, marmalade. and whatever
else is served, can be brought In at once.
Another English importation used at tho
tea hour Is known on the other side as q
"curate's assistant" 1t is the duty OF the
curate, it appears, to serve the women
with plates, napkins, and the edible part
of the sacred function. The assistant
is made of wood or willow. and consists Of
three round. fiat shelves, with handle
attached. On the lower shelf are placed
plates and napkins; on the others the
toast, sandwiches. etc. In the, curate's
absence the maid or any masculine guest
passes 1t.

MRS. To1es was bout the mos disap-

she gave Mr.. Toles one of those silky
things women wear over their heads. to
parties. When she handed tito him she
called it muffer, but I notuced It the
only time he ever had his fingers on it
after Christmas was when he was putin

mus have been s'prise to him, an this
year he gave his wife one of those fancy
vests men set such store by. She looked
at it as II she couldn't b'lieve her eyes,
an then she began to cry. Mr.. Toles was
some scared, for she went from cryin,
into Mysteries, an he tot her to put her
han in the lef' pocket, that he was only
jokin. She Jes threw the vest at him
an the string of beads that was her real
|presen' fell out Of the pocket an the
string broke an by the time they had
the beads picked UP. they both had more
sense, for ti1ey'd had a chanst to see how
foolish they d been.

peared in the fashionable ballroom. But
it has lost al Its stiffness. Instead Of
being combined with velvet as it invaria-
bly, was in the past, it Is now fetchingly
blended with tulle. One of the most
original of the straight from Paris ball
gowns indeed deserved the name ''crea-
tiOn.' The skirt was made Of white
tulle over white silk and was strapped
with vertical bands Of white satin ribbon.
The decollete bodice was Of the faintest
shade of blue brocade scattered with deli
cate pink roses and faint green leaves.
The long sweeping train was Of the bro
cade and hung in graceful folds from the
lower part OF the back Of the bodice. Be-
tween the skirt proper and this train Of
brocade silk was a billowy, foamy mass
of white tulle yelled with white point
d'esprit and lined with white embroidery
silk. The close fitting bodice was made
with deep band in front. Just at the
corsage line in front and extending
across. the back were soft folds Of white
tulle- These were connected with lace
shoulder straps by means of ribbon bands
The effect was exceedingly novel, just q
bit daring and yet. altogether lovely.
Fur has become such a craze with the
| girl who keeps pace with the ever
! changing fashions, that she Is not content
| unless she has more than half Of the
gowns, wraps and hats in her wardrobe
| with some touch Of fur about them. The
| latest addition to the wardrobe of the
| young woman who is fashionable and
/ travels much is an entire suit of fur gen.
orally of bear or of reindeer to wear when
she is spending week or so up in Canada.
It is the most curious suit for girl to
wear, for she has no suggestion of a skirt
about it. There are long trousers Of fur.
