ing and nuts, and either brown or
white bread with crisp lettuce leaves
and bit of mayonnaise will prove an
inspiration to the woman who is fag-
ged from a tiresome shopping trip or
long interview with her dressmaker.
The list of palatable tea table sand
wiches is almost limitless if the host
ess will only take the trouble to pre-
pare them or see that they are pre-
pared. ~. -. ~..
Where the cook is accomplished in
the art of scone making these de-
licious Southern dainties should by
all means have a place of honor on
the afternoon tea table. One woman
owes a large part Of her social sue
cess and popularity to the scones and
tea she serves two or three afternoons
a week.
Women as we'll as men are sus-
ceptible to culinary attractions, and
few can resist the crisp yellow brown
scones that come piping hot from the
oven and are spread with melting.
A much priced recipe for afternoon
tea biscuit, one that is not even con-
fided to friend, but has been treas
ured by a single household for gen.
erations, has a mixture of mustard
and cheese that battles the analytical
| powers of all who partake of this deli
cacy. It is one of the simplest tea
table accompaniments. Tea biscuit,
either home made or those that come
from a good bakery, form the founda-
tion of this appetizing Wand. The
biscuits are split open, and each half
is spread with a little mustard, then
sprinkled with butter, and the discs
are ready for a visit to the hot oven,
where they should remain long
enough to convert the tops of the bis
cults into a rich yellow brown crust
and to heat them all the way through.
Afterward they should be taken from
the oven and served Immediately be-
fore the cheese takes on a gummy
consistency. This unusual and sim
ply prepared tea delicacy will tempt
any woman to run the risk of spoil
ing her appetite for dinner, even to
spelling her complexion, one might.

WILL YOU TAKE TEA WITH ME?
How to Serve the Fashionable Beverage With Its
Accompanying Sweets and Dainties.

Everybody takes afternoon tea now.
Society women meet for a little chat
and bite to eat when slipping their
favorite Ceylon or Formosa; business
women leave their work few min
utes early or snatch a short respite
for the pleasure of the tea drinking
hour; matinee girls have transferred
their affections from ice cream sodas
to Oolong and sweets, and now and
then one sees men scattered through
the fashionable throng enjoying cup
Of fragrant tea instead of a more mas
culine kind of drink. It is the fashion
to invite your friends to take tea with
you, and a fashion that is both sane
and enjoyable.
If there is the least lingering doubt
in the mind of any one as to the pop
ularity of the tea hour glimpse
through any of the fashionable res
taurants or small tea rooms will dis
sipate this suspicion forever. Once
it was the luncheon hour at which
women gathered for gossip and re-
freshment, but now the tea hour is
the time set for this combination of
pleasures. Luncheon parties are still
given, but they are not half so So
ciable and entertaining as the 5
o'clock tea gathering.
Informal tea drinking at home ex-
lists, or rather the fashion is being
introduced, in many homes where the
serving Of afternoon tea was an event
instead of a daily occurrence. Friends
dropping in on their way home from
a shopping tour or after the matinee
supply the atmosphere of the chatty
crowded tea rooms overlooking Fifth
avenue, but the home tea is never
quite the same as the more brilliant
and Kaleidoscope scene of the restau-
rant tea room. There women meet
their friends, see the new fashions
and hear the latest bit of gossip.
Having been introduced to the tea
drinking habit by the English, we
have made a variation or two in it
which does not diminish the social
functions popularity, though it con-
verts it into a more substantial repast
than the original afternoon tea.
The Appeal., 1908-11-28

Either we shall have to advance the
regular tea hour or defer the dinner
one,'' said we'll known restaurateur,
when discussing the growing habit of
tea drinking in this country. "Ameri-
can women are so fond of eating
cakes, sandwiches, French pastry and
ices with their afternoon tea that
their appetites must suffer and their
weights increase. They partake of a
substantial tea at or $3.50 and dine
between 6 and 7. There is greater
demand each season for French pas
try with tea, while the modest little
sandwich and the wafer -recede fur
ther and further into the dim recesses
of the stewards domain
Tea and mullins, tea and toast or
tea and crumpets used to form the
menu for either a restaurant tea or
one served at home, and when these
dainties are perfectly prepared and
brought in crisp and hot there is moth
ing more delicious. Currant buns
are a sweet and appetizing accompa-
niment to fragrant cup of tea, and
in certain tea rooms they are spe-
cialty. The hostess can pick up many
useful ideas on tea serving and what
to have with tea from the best res
taurants and tea rooms She will
find that her guests like mullins, sand
wiches and buns land that they revel
in sweets, so that It is always wise
to include some cakes among the tea
table Wand.
A plate of plain bread and butter
sandwiches cut very thin and perfect
ly fresh should be served with the
other delicacies. There will be some
guests who prefer this simple fare to
the more elaborate sweets of the
American tea table, but they are in
the minority. Brown bread treated in
the same way is excellent with tea,
and offers a little variation to the
white bread. The home tea table
should excel in this particular dainty,
for it is easy to prepare, and one of
the most difficult orders to have filed
satisfactorily in a restaurant.

slices of bread, thin layers of cheese
or cream cheese mixed with season

Partridges in Maine,

A feature of this years hunting
season in the Maine woods has been
the abundance Of partridges. Com
menting on the matter, the Kennebec
Journal says: "A we'll known Eastern
Maine guide claims that the HEDGEHOG
law passed by the legislature four
years ago and repealed last season
has had the indirect effect of giving
the partridges chance to multiply.
This law authorized the payment OF a
bounty on hedgehogs, and while it
was in force resulted in killing of the
porcupfne almost to the point Of ex-
tinction. This man says that the
hedgehogs eat the eggs Of the par
tridges and now that there are so few
of them many more eggs have a
chance to hatch"
