TAPER novelties and favors have
become such recognized part of
successful luncheon and dinner
giving that they are preferred by
hostesses and caterers TO the finest of
cut glass and silver, as giving a novel
and artistic touch to the table. They
are, moreover, ideal in carrying out
color schemes. AS at nearly all lunch
cons and dinners, one color is used
throughout. these paper cases, besides
being pretty and novel, charmingly
carry out the pink. red or green color.
ing as neither the finest china, silver OF
glass can do.
From mere paper cases for holding
salted almonds or bonbons, the work
OF paper cases has now risen to an
art, new ideas being constantly shown
and the work having an artistic finish
that makes them preferred by all host
esses.
Paper napkins we have long had
with US. but paper doilies are new with

pale brown. Before dinner they can
be slightly heated on the warming
shelf
The fowl is to be singed and cleaned
as for roasting. Remove the tip joint
of each wing and the neck; add heart
and liver, cover with a pint of cold
water and simmer for an hour or
more; this gives a broth for the sauce.
Wash and boil scant cupful of rice
in four quarts of slightly salted water;
keep at galloping boil; 1T Will be ten

Drain it, add tablespoonful of butter

Stuff the fowl with this, but do not
pack it in the cavity. Truss or tie as
for roasting. Sprinkle with salt ana
pepper, roll in cheese cloth and steam
until tender. The advantage in this
method of cooking is that very tough,
old fowl may be made perfectly tender
by prolonging the cooking; two hours
will be sufficient for the l-year-old
fowl, but three, or even four hours
may be given when very tough.
Small white onions make the best

petals. The red rose is on the same or
der, and to make it look more real has
green leaves added. other colors in
roses and chrysanthemums are to be
had from the caterers or in the shops,
although it would be a very easy task
for a clever woman to construct these
cases herself, as they are really very
simple of construction. Beside the
pretty design, small hat, the crown
lifting off to expose the contents of the
box inside. This particular hat was in
two shades of lavender to accompany a
violet luncheon.
Daintiest of all are the pretty slippers
which come only in pink and white and
have gilded heel and a small bow at
the toe. They are made of crinkly crepe
paper and are especially apropos for
weddings and for engagement lunch
cons.
The very newest idea for name cards,
though not of paper, might be mem
toned as being a part of dainty dinner
giving. These are nothing more than
real roses on which is written the name
OF the person. On red rose laid beside
the plate. in white letters viii appear
the name of the person designated to
that seat, the petal having the name
being curled back that 1t may better be
seen. on white and yellow roses the
name is done in colors or i'm black, that
it may be conspicuous. 1t is said the
writing of name on real rose is a
very delicate operation. and perhaps for
this reason is one that has become the
latest fad, as well as particularly
pleasing one.

danger of injuring the waist. The satin
jacket made with broad belt, with full
attached skirt coming just to the
knees, makes an attractive modet.
This usually has an embroidered vest
of satin or chiffon velvet, over which
the coat may be fastened or not at

an attractive finishing touch to an
altogether fascinating garment.

this year are almost too fine to be used
for anything but elaborate gowns, so
that the coat must needs be fashioned
Of some other material. In this case
velvet seems the favorite, and a velvet
jacket is far smarter with cloth dress

when almost every detail of the cos

reaches to the hem of the second

made with an unusually wide pointed

Reception wraps of dull brocaoes are

While the Louis XVI jacket to be
al tsoluteIy correct should have tight
coat sleeves there is still 10 reason
why one should keep to a cast iron
rule, particularly when some other
style seems more convenient. For a
