For Afternoon Teas.

Beyond cup of tea or chocolate the
refreshments served are so slight that
t. make the desired impression they
must have a dainty perfection both as
to flavor and appearance not so neces-
sary at a larger and more varied af-
| fair
The first thing to be considered is,
Of course, sandwiches. Since Lord
Sandwich first laid slice of ham be-
tween two thin slices of bread and so
originated the dish which has ever
since borne his name, his simple theme
has known infinite variation, and every
year adds few more to the long list,
some delicious, many merely odd. In
cooking newness or oddly is not a suf-
ficient raison d'etre and the wise hos
tess will avoid offering her guests re-
freshments whose unlikeness to those
usually served are their chief recon-
mendation, Aim first to tickle the pal
ate next to satisfy the eye, and let
novelty, enter only when it comes hand
in hand with the first precept,
IL seems hardly necessary to empha-
size that half the battle In making
dainty sandwiches lies in well made,
well sliced bread, Where the round
loaves baked for this purpose can be
produced a good shape can be secured
with little trouble, otherwise to attain
the half circle which most housekeep-
ers like there must be a great waste
both of time and bread
Olives and Pimentoes- For these you
can buy In bottles broken olives which
have been stoned. The pimentoes come
in small cans, Drain the liquor from
both olives and pmentoes and chop
fine. Add enough well seasoned mayon-
nalse to bind together and make the
mixture spread Well
Harvard Boiled Eggs, Plmentoes and
| PicKles-These are made as the above,
the eggs, both white and yellow, chop
ped quite fine, to which is added an
equal quantity of chopped pimentoes
and good pickles. Mix with moyan-
naise dressing and spread generously
over the bread.
Chicken and Green Pepper-The
chicken Should be prepared for this as
Iut sdldu, Dolllng until tenQer ana al
lowing the fowl to cool in its own
liquor The sandwiches are daintier
when only the breast is used, though
the dark meat can be added if de-
sired Strip the chicken, rejecting all
skin and gristle, and chop the meat
fine Season with salt and cayenne pep
per. Mix generously with mayonnaise
dressing and spread upon bread; sprin-
lSl1 with finely minced sweet green
peppers. This makes a most appetizng
\ sandwich
Egg and sardine.- Rub the yellows
Of six hard boiled eggs to a smooth
paste add enough highly seasoned
mayonnaise to made thick, easily
spread mixture Drain the oil from
three or four good French sardines; cut
off the heads and tails and with a
sharp knife lay them Open remove the
bones and scrape the skin Rub to a
paste and add to the egg and mayon-
naise, mixing thoroughly. Spread on
thin slices of bread

FINE LINGERIE
SIMPLE DAINTY
General Level Of Goods Of
fered Now Higher
Than Of Old.

Anyone who cares to. study the grades
Of lingerie kept in first-class shops will
speedily realize that the general level
Of the goods offered is higher than Of
old, To be sure there is a tremendous
supply Of coarse and cheap lingerie,
but French handmade garments find
ready sale and there is a decided i'm
provenlent in the designs and work.
manship Of the higher grades of DOM
este lingerie
1t is hard to find sober and sedate
lingerie nowadays. A large majority of
tn : models are hopelessly given over to
coquetry and the supply of lingerie for
the serlous-minded and practical is
small
Almost all Of the fine nlghtgowns are
Of the slip on type, having no front
opening and being designed to slip on
over the head. This gives the designer
more freedom in the line of trimming
design and the results obtained are
both beautiful and becoming; but the
slip on, Of course, means decolletage
and some provision is made for the
woman who wants her gown high
necked
A geuine high neclged gown is rare
and usuallylugly but a compromise is
often made by giving a model a high
back and demi decollete front. OF
! these the square cut model is decidedly
the most becoming and is shown in the
most attractive designs, the very slight
V cut being almost universally unbe-
coming.
The low neck cut, square, round, or
occasionally a broad " is the rule in
the fine gown, and the sleeves are
| piquant and deleetahle little affairs
short, full, free at the bottom, little
more, indeed, than an elbow depth frill
cut to iaring shapeliness. Often this
| little sleeve opens all the way up the
outside and the trimming Of lace frills
runs around the bottom and up each
side Of the opening. Little bows of rib
bens hold the sides of the sleeves to-
gether and futter daintlly among the
frills of lace.
The combination or princesse under
garments are the latest lingerie fad
and at their best are most attractive
and practical, doing away with all the
awkward fullness and bulkiness and
| fastenings around the waist line. In
this day of clinging gowns and coveted
slenderness it is important that under
garments should fit smoothly under the
clinging, supple froeks and the prin-
eesse lingerie is an answer to this de-
mand.
Some models combine corset cover
brewers ana short petticoat, Others con
sist merely OF corset cover and very
wide drawers SO plated that they give
the effect of a short skirt and answer
its purpose These last models are the
favorltes; the designers have turned
out many exquisite things in this line
The corset cover. though softly full
ed in front and perhaps at back, is
drawn in to trim shapeliness, and the
mhaterial is so soft and sheer that the
slight fullness is Of no consequence
