Smart Luncheon Linen.

Broadly speaking, the best style of
table linen for a formal luncheon
is a centerpiece and individual doll
les. Nevertheless this cannot be laid
down as hard and fast rule, because
so beautiful are covers made especial
ly for lcncheon use that not to have
them is pity Unless, however. the
cover Is especially for such a purpose
II must not be used. That is to say,
a dinner CLOTH no matter how simple
or how magnificent, can never be sub
stituted for luncheon.
To mistake the two is impossible
for luncheon cover is either circular.
being rarely II ever larger than the
table itself, or else it is quite square,
with only the four corners hanging a
trifle
When the table is larger, individual
doilies of course are omitted, but
when. as is often the case. the circle
is only large enough to cover the mid
die of the table. doilies become es-
sential There are those for plates,
two sizes for goblets, those for water
and wine, others for bread and butter
dish, should it be used, and still others
for finger bowl. They are duplicates
in miniature of the centerpieces, and
serviettes of course match perfectly.
Az filet lace has taken such hold
upon popularity that for the present
it supersedes all others, so is it desir-
able in table linen. 1t is to be found
square, joined with linen squares, in
long bands or circular No matter
how the design may be worked for the
table there is always some linen in
combination. The doilies alone may
be entirely of lace.
Square covers are more apt to be
seen in alternating bands of both ma
terlals, manufacturers saying that it is
almost impossible to have circular de-
signs properly done up after they
have become soiled Serviettes for
such a cover show no lace whatever
A colur may or may not be put be-
meath the cover as individual taste die.

popularity for the table. Very occa-
sionally one sees duchesse lace

Simple yet very pretty in effect are
covers of fine linen showing an inset
of wide torchon entire deux.
To have any, even the simplest, of
these laces laundered when soiled is
to ruin them. No matter how expert
the fingers that do them, the dainty
fabrics will be thick and coarse. They

WHAT THE BOOK SAID.
II Makes an Appeal to the Careless
Little Boy.


Once upon time book was over
heard talking to the little boy who
had Just had It given to him. The
words seemed worth recording, and
here they are:
Please don't handle me with dirty
hands. should feel ashamed to be
seen when the next little boy reads
me.
Or leave me out in the rain. Books
can catch cold, as well as children.
"Or make marks upon me with your
pen or pencil 1t would spoil my looks.
"Or lean on me with your elbows
when you are reading me. 1t hurts.
"Or open me and lay me down on
the table. You wouldn't like to be
treated so.
"Or put In between my leaves a PEN
ell or anything thicker than single
sheet Of thin paper, 1t would strain
my back.
When you have finished reading

place. don't turn down the corner Of
my leaves. but have a neat little book
mark to put In where you stopped,
md then close me ana lay me down
on my side, so that can have a good,
comfortable rest.
