For daisy and fern luncheon or
dinner party, the following idea is nov
el and charming:
When one is using a special flower
for the decoration of the table at for
NAL luncheon or dinner it is artistic 10
have the same flowers used as a gar
nish for as many Of the dishes as pos
sible
Thus, if one has daisies and ferns in
the center of the table, have the lamp
shades OF green paper. cut in narrow
frondlike pieces to represent fern.
Serve the oysters in their shells with
a wreath of ferns around the outside
and lemon nesting in a bed Of dais-
les in the center.
Irvine the stems Of sherbert glasses
in maidenhair, if it can be done just
before sending to the table, otherwise
it will be too Wilted.
If you have grape fruit served in
glasses, have them standing in a
wreath Of daisies, with ferns on the
stems. Or, if the half fruit is served,
let the edge of the plate be wreathed

The ices should be moulded in the
form of daisies, if you care to go to the
expense, and should have a touch of
pistache in them to represent the
green.
If you do not use nodded ices, then
they will look we'll served in boxes in
the form of paper daisies or covered
with real ferns.
The place cards can be painted
bunch of flowers, cut out so they can
be slipped on the top Of the goblet.
The candy and small cakes should be
green and white, and if the dinner is
elaborate enough to give souvenirs,
you might have the floral centerpiece
arranged in separate punches of dais-
es and ferns that can be given to each
guest in the drawing room just before
she leaves.
The social given last night at the
