For Iced Tea.

II housewife has not tried serv-
ing sprigs of mint in glasses OF iced
tea for luncheon or supper, she wants
to experiment with IL at once,
Il gives a refreshing flavor TO the
drink. The stems and lower leaves
are crushed between the fingers and
then dipped into the glass after the
crushed Ice has been put In.
A glass should be filed with this
crushed ice, which is far better
method than breaking off Jumps Of
ice and letting them swim around
in the tea After the glass Is filled,
two slices of lemon are slightly
crushed on top of the Ice and then
boiling hot tea is poured over.
The method that some housewives
use of making the tea In the morn
ing, pouring II into pitcher and
putting II into the refrigerator for
the day Is now discarded by those
who do not want the unhealthful ef-
fecls that come from tea that has
been standing over half an hour

Value of Old pewter.

The value OF old pewter must be
relative, as no fixed standard can be
set. One authority tells US that the
medium sized plates bring from SIPS
to $3.50, the larger sizes from SO 10
$40 and the large trenchers, from 10
to 20 inches, are worth from $40 TO
$l2.
In one collection, says Harper's
Bazaar, a large straight pot is val
ued at SIC, two smaller ones at $l2.
Whale oil lamps are valued at from
IS TO $40, porringers at from $3.50
to IS.
Among collections OF old pewter
one finds more OF the porringers
than OF any other one style of piece.
For some unknown reason they have
survived the destruction that came
TO other larger pieces OF pewter.

Passing in through the sydney

400 yards, the ships looked to have

their cheers to swell the noisy vel

EastenIna the Waists.

With q few exceptions the best
results can be accomplished by fast
ening a waist down the back. If the
waist is fastened in the back one
knows that in following out de-
sign the plaits, tucks, or other TRIM
ming will not be disturbed when
there is no opening line from the
neck to the waist, and consequently
the design can he ma9c prore elab-
crate. 1t takes more time, 10 be
sure, to struggle into a waist by
ones self which is fastened in the
back, but II can easily be done, as
one knows, by beginning at the top
and pulling the back OF the waist up
little so that the middle part can
be reached and then pulling the
waist back in place and finishing the
last few buttons. So many blouses
are made to fasten In this way that
II is a wise plan TO have plenty Of
hooks and eyes or buttons, so MS not
10 leave gap in the closing seam.
II is more trouble, of course, TO fas-
ten the tiny little hooks than the
larger ones, but to get really goo1
results one must use small hooks,
and the timer they are the better,
and they must be sewed on neatly
and firmly. Don't use the little wire
eyes that come with the hooks, but
make the eyes out OF five or six loops
Of sewing silk and then buttonhole
these loops neatly, The advantage
of these eyes is that they are fiat and
do not show at all when the gar
ment is fastened.
