Design for Candle Shade, with one-Fourth Pattern.

4 LII manner of fairs, bazars and
- lawn parties are being held for
n purpose or another and those
in charge are on the lookout for things
both novel and useful. Attractive
candle shades fill the bill admirably,
as they prove ready sellers. One Of
the most effective and at the same
time inexpensive variety of shades is
made on a frame of heavy water
proof paper, painted black, with a thin
paper, such as Japanese rice paper or
very thin water-color paper, painted
in beautiful bright colors and lined in
India ink to give the effect of loaded
glass. 1t is very simple to make and
charming when finished and lighted.
The design for a round candle
shade is given and one-fourth of the
pattern. The pattern given is merely
repeated four times, with a half-inch
seam at each end, to be turned in at
right angles to the shade and fastened
with brads. Another way to finish is
to leave a flap on one side only and
glue the other side over it. A strong
glue must be used; mucilage or pho.
tograph paste will not do.

The London cookshop.

From this the present restaurant
had it's beginning. In the days Of
Elizabeth these cookshops were the
only eating places in all England.
THE Worshipful Company of Paste
lars was the name by which these
cooks were called, and they had pub
lie stalls Qocated chiefly in the ia
East Cheap where you carried
to be cooked the meat procured at the
butchers stalls next door. Food was
prepared and served at these cook
shops, but it had to be brought for
preparation by the customer. If he
wanted wine, too, he brought that
with him; vegetables, pastery, too,
he must carry. Later, however, the
cooks began to gradually provide, not
only the cooking but the procuring of
the viands, and from this came the
restaurant as we know it. A great
convenience over the method of arm
ing oneself with baskets of %provender,
and waiting at the first cookshop for
the stuff to be prepared. The street
of East Cheap must have presented
the spectacle Of a constantly recur-
ring tide of persons laden as If for o
picnic!

Proper Service
at Dinner
Table

The young housekeeper, setting up
her own establishment, sometimes
finds it difficult to instruct the maid
who serves the family meals to do the
work noiselessly and properly. Per-
haps the first principle to learn is
that everything should be handed to
the left side of the person who is sic-
ting, which enables them to serve
themselves easily with the right.
In laying the table one must have
an eye to preserving balance with ev-
erything that is put on. That is, If a
salt cellar is placed at one side there
must be another in the corresponding
place on the other. A fern or a dish
of fruit or even an empty dish, if it
is a pretty one. must always be placed
in the very center. Around that are
the extra forks and spoons, as attrac-
tive as you can arrange them.
In front Of the places of persons
who i to be seated there must be a
plate. The knife is put at the right
side and the forks at the left, the
tines pointing up. If there is a soup
spoon it goes beside the knife. The
oyster fork also Is next to the spoon
and knife, but that for oysters is the
only fork that is placed at the right.
All the others go to the left. If more
than n is required, as for salad
after the meal. the larger fork goes
next to the plate. Spoons for dessert.
whether they are large or small. are
Nvor tho n1otn. tho% Sc ~ o1rOcr tho
top. The napkin should be folded
with two points under and laid in the
plate, a square of bread being tucked
away in it if the meal is dinner.
Few housekeepers have more than
the roast on the table these days, veg
etables being at the side table from
which they are handed by the maid,
who returns them there after each
person has been served.
If they are to be kept on the table
one would be at one side, another at
the other side of the meat, or two
dishes might be put at the foot of the
table. That is a matter of individual
preference which each housekeeper
decides.
The maid serving should wear a
small white cap and a big apron with
bib and straps over the shoulders and
crossing at the back.
Quiet IN the dining room is a thing
that must be striven for by the maid.
A noisy person is an abomination and
the rattle of dishes and clash of silver
should not be permitted.

The first step is to trace the pattern
on the heavy water color paper by
means of carbon paper, then paint it
black and cut it out. The frame will
then look like the small diagram in
the upper right-hand corner of the
sketch.
Next the panels may be traced and
painted in water color, using these
colors: Clouds, white; sky, light CO.

When the paint is perfectly dry go
over all the lines with India ink and a

to glue into the frame.

Bags of Patent
Leather and
Others

There has been a new favor ac-
corded to patent leather and many of
the smartest new bags for practical
use are in this leather. 1t does not
wear SO well as many other black
feathers, but it has a brightness for
eign to any of the other feathers. save
morocco, a youthful air, and made up
in attractive shape WITH lining OF some
gay color. it certainly deserves popu-
lsiity, ven If it does show wear ra-
Their quickly.
The patent-leather bags are In al
most every case more effective than
any of the other feathers. The de.
tails of the bags give them individ.
uality even when shapes vary little
and the last word seems to have been
said in the matter of fittings.
For luncheon downtown there is a
smaller bag (also used for matinee
%purposes), containing the indispens,
able vanity equipment, mirror, pow,
der puff or cloth and possibly other
items. 1t may have the little opera
glasses and fan, too.
For visits a fiat envelope bag OF
small handsome bag with handle is
the thing if one carries anything in
leather. A purse or bag of melted
gold, silver or gunmetal is often pre-,
ferred, but it should be large enough
to hold cards as well as handker
chief, and if one is travelling by car
small change purse.
Lizard skin is considared a GOOD
skin for dressy occasions, but the
leather workers are so clever in their
use of dyes now that one may have a
bag to match almost any costume
The very pale biscuit and gray tones
and white are used for beautiful
purses and small bags, often gold
mounted and having precious stones
set in their clasps. A new shape as
shown by II well-known leather
goods firm shows a succession OF
overlapping flaps inclosing separate
pockets. This model has taken ex
tremely well. Another well-liked mod.
ell has its original note in the smooth
plain mounting of metal curving down.
ward slightly in the middle, and in
the plain metal handle, which seems
a continuation of the mounting. From

right angle double handle of leather
beneath which the bag is cut down a
little, the sides being left higher. The
flap of a small change compartment

bag.

LLaura,s Meat Pie.

Laura is one of the best cooks in
the south, and when she makes a
meat pie-well, we all eat too much.
When asked for her recipe Laura
said: LA, bless you. honey, l don't
never have no receipt for that pie; I

gerther."
When pressed for details, however,
she condescended to say that she took
two pounds, of raw, chopped meat, or
one pound of cold meat, previously
cooked, and added three hard-boiled
eggs, one-quarter of an onion, a large
potato, and plenty of salt and pepper.
This mixture we'll chopped together,
she put into a b%aking-dish lined with
pastry. Cover the pie with another
layer Of pastry and bake. Laura add
ed: EFF the meat, honey, is kind O.

The Babies in Summer

This is the season when infant NOR
tally is at its height. A famous ply
stefan of Westminster, a Of. this
lamentable fact: The death of babies
in summer is in most cases directly
traceable to summer %diarrhoea. He
goes on to say that because of the oft
proven fact that breast-fed babies es.
cape, we can plainly see. the need of
care in the milk given artificially.
Keep the milk clean-the need is,
primarily, for the better care Of the
milk before. distribution, but it is also
true that the mother, the housekeep.
er, has much to do with keeping it in
good condition. Absolute cleanliness;
ice, if possible, and, above all, a bottle
which has no tube o screw top to
become easily infected. Use a simple
affair with a large nipple which can be
easily cleaned.
But, above and beyond all, watch for
the flies. It is only now becoming rec
ognized that common house flies do an
infinite deal of harm by carrying dis.
ease germs into our food.
We VIII meuu our ways
when we read in the London Lancet:
"A blue-bottle vas allowed to walk
across a, piece of freshly sliced pota.
to. The potato developed colonies
of heterogeneous all along the
track of the fly, while elsewhere nc
such development took place."
The Lancet recommends a safe and
simple. way to get rid of flies: "Put
two spoonfuls of weak solution OF
formaldehyde Ito be cheaply bought
at any drug store), into a pint of water
and place this in shallow plates about
the room. Flies are attracted and
drink; the fluid kills them, and with
this advantage that 1t also disinfects
them"

Vegetables with Meat

1t is a god plan, when a light diet
is more healthful, to use meat in COM
bination with vegetables. Thus less
meat will be required. A very little
beef or mutton in stuffing goes a long
way.
For the stufting of any vegetable
use a mixture of a half pint Of finely
chopped meat Cooked or uncooked)
with IN equal amount of bread
crumbs; season with salt and pepper,
chopped parsley and a dash of
onion juice.
Cucumbers, squash, tomatoes, etc,
are all delicious when stuffed with
this. Clean, but do not peel, the Gu
cumbers and squash; cut them in
halves and stuff, afterward tying them
together with strong Irvine. First fry
the vegetables in a hot dripping-pan,
turning them until all sides are brown
and well saturated with grease. Then
bake in a moderate wen for an hour.
Some prefer to pare the cucumbers
and squash, but tomatoes should be
baked without peeling. Bake the lat.
ter quickly, and serve with a sauce.
