summer furniture; for instance, natural
rattan run with bright interlaced color
ings A sunny, happy summer furni-
ture one might call yellow rattan, lovely
alike for bedroom, drawing room and
porch in the country home Eccentric
novelties hardly good style are chairs
backed with plated ropes and with
seats or cushions of burlap tied in with
the ropes. Movable leather cushions
are not a novelty in rattan furniture,
but this material attached to the chair
is decided innovation. It is very com
Portable, and many persons prefer it to
sliding, slippery cushions. Golf sets of
green rattan fitted with brown leather
seats are quite the thing this summer.
The chairs and settees have rattan golf
cases, which on the lawn may answer
equally well as receptacles for umbrella
and walking sticks.
Everything to add to ones comfort
has been provided in the new summer
furniture. There are large and cheer
full seats equipped with a round rattan
receptacle for holding bottles, and
many of the lawn chairs have fiat
pieces of wood extending from leg to
leg to prevent the chair from sinking
into the grass. The rockers, when ad-
mitted to the smart lawn, are made with
usual rocker. Then the porch chairs
are large, roOmy affairs with broad
arms, beneath which a space is ar
ranged in which to stow magazines. and
books Desks. three corner cabinets
very like the old fashioned walnut af-
fairs of long ago, are to be seen in all
the light summer woods and rattans.
/ Magazine racks for porch or inside
use are new and have four shelves
shaped to fit the space. Tea tables are
circular and in several tiers, supplied
with bent handles by which to carry
them.
Prairie grass furniture In a closely
woven mesh is very strong, durable and
pretty and is not as expensive as some
OF the other new designs. Light color.
ing is not absent in the array of hof
weather furniture, pale blue, pink anc
even lavender appearing in all the new
patterns. Screens for the summer
house are gayer and more attractiv,
than ever. The poster screens are va,
r1ed and in some cases extremely pret
ty. A charming example shows a serie,
Of French pictures. reproductions o
water colors- They are set near tn,
top Of the leaves, and the lower mart o
the screen is covered with pockets 70

RECIPES FOR
SWEET Sauces

~ AUCE FOR BANANAS.-Mix one
ounce of cornstarch with a little
cold water, add half a pint of
boiling water and stir over the fire un-
til it boils again; then cook it five min
utes longer Add the pulp of five ba-
nanas rubbed through a sieve, enough
powdered sugar to sweeten to taste and
a little rosewater or sherry as flavor
ing. Set aside to cool Just before
serving add a gill of stifdy whipped
cream.
Cold Sauce.-Rub through a sieve the
pulp of four oranges. Boil these with
four ounces of powdered sugar and half
pint of water for fifteen minutes. As
the boiling proceeds dissolve in the
mixture a little gelatin Flavor with
brandy or sherry.
Foam Sauce.-Break one egg into
double Boiler Whisk the egg we'll,
adding gradually as much vanilla or
wine as is required for havorings
Sweeten with one teaspoonful of pow
dered sugar, also added while the
whisking is going on. This sauce must
be used directly it is made.
Chocolate Sauce.-Four ounces of
powdered sugar boiled in one gill of
water for five minutes. Then stir in
slowly four ounces OF powdered choco-
late. When these ingredients are well
mixed pour them into a utensiI and
place it in a pan Of hot water. Let the
sauce cook for i've minutes; then stir
in a gill of cream and favor with a half
teaspoonfu1 of vanilla.
Sauce For Fruit SaIad.-Malke half a
pint OF plain sugar and water strip and
color it with carmine. Then add
small Hqueur glass of wine. This
sauce added to fruits peeled, sliced,
stoned or otherwise prepared makes an
excellent fruit salad.
Hard Sauce-Take one tablespoonful
OF butter and four tabIespoonfuls OF
powdered sugar and beat them togeth-
er with a dessertspoonfu1 of brandy.
Beat until the sauce has the appear
anee of a soft yet crystallized sugary

nutmeg Set the sauce on ice until
ready to serve.

ed for and its brimless shape hufed out
with an aureole pompadour to make it
look as if it belonged where it is worn
The woman who srevels in arranging
her front hair like unto that of a pre-
Faphaelite saint should give the polo
toque wide berth. There is the sar-
torial heather within the gates who
thinks she can cut the rim from an old
hat having a high. round crown and
convert It into modish polo touue.
The result is IN no way satisfactory,
and the end does not justify the means.
With all their freakishness, hats of the
moment are terribly tempting affairs.
and one is apt to indulge in them to the
detriment of ones dress allowance.
Every second person one meets seems
to be wearing just the hat one thinks
would suit her. but once in the shops,
seated before a mirror, we all realize
how difficult It is to accustom our
selves to the new shapes. They are in
many instances low and fat on one side

soted tiles, and the roof is matched.
Inside the walls are plastered and left
rough The front door opens into hall
sitting room. A drawing room has
been considered unnecessary, as this
living hall and the veranda give plenty
of accommodation for easy chairs,
bookstands, writing tables, etc. To the
left of the hall are the dining room,
kitchen, pantry and one bedroom, while
to the right are three other bedrooms.
Both the decoration and furniture Of
the bungalow such as the one described
should be of the simplest character.
Such unpretentious things as wicker
and rattan lounges, cane chairs and ia
bles and stained wood furniture are
most appropriate. When rough walls
are not liked. Japanese mating as a
wall covering is very good, but it is
wise to avoid wall paper.
The plain walls will require a few
pictures to relieve them, such as small
etchings or colored prints in simple
wood frames. and one or two corner
cupbeards will be found useful and or

the room, the size, the exposure and
the use to which the room is to be put
all determine how the scenery paper
may be used to the very best advan-
tage.
Just a word now about the country
house itself. The bungalow is deserv-
edly popular as a little country house,
and each year adds to the number of
these picturesque summer residences,
which have many advantages over the
cottage and none of the disadvantages
of a regular country house. This house
can be built and maintained at compar-
atively small cost and offers both home
ness and comfort. The illustration
gives some idea of the general plan and
appearance of such a building. Its We
randa. matched roof and simple rustic
style all make it very attractive. The
walls are of studs covered with creo-
