Arranging Flowers ON the TabIe-For
the adornment OF the dinner table the
form that gives much result for the
least energy is the flower decoration.
The rules for design can be made use
of by the hostess when this part of her
work confronts her. There should be an
important spot in the decorative scheme
and the rest of the design should be
Connected with this central idea. The
eye should be held by a large group of
flowers and wander OF to the contrlbut-
ing smaller ones, only to return to the
main patch of color.
A. very easy arrangement of flowers
is. large fat, circular bank secured in
the following way: Upon circular or
oval tray with depth enough TO hold
water. place smaller circular pan or
dish. Bank the flowers in the latter,
adding touch of green asparagus. On
the fat tray arrange the flowers, with
the holder in each case. "A circular mat
Of greens can be placed upon the table
cloth, framing the tray. Little indf-
vidual bouquets for the women and bou-
tonnieres for the men may be placed
at each plate.
For long table two masses can be
well used. Frequently long window
boxes can be made to furnish high,
oblong decoration. The low. rectangular
form is often built on discarded
pasteboard suit box, which holds q dish
and is hidden from view by a covering
Of white paper and the flowers Gener-
ally speaking. low decoration is de-
sirable. At a dinner party each guest
likes to see his hostess and his com
panions. This fiat form also enables
the all seeing eye Of the hostess to
keep everything in her range of vision.
One color with green or white is the
best idea to follow when selecting the
blooms. The flowers and the candle
shades should match or harmonize.
If these few hints anent table decora-
tion be followed an artistic effect will
generally result.
Correct Method of Dusting-In this
scientific age the affairs of house keep
ing can be conducted along correct
sanitary lines 1t will in most cases be
found that little duties in the work OF
the home will have better and more
lasting results If the sensible voice OF
lexperience be needed.
The object of dusting is to remove
the dry particles from the furniture and
from the house. Any method which
clears the polished table of its layer OF
dirt and still allows the dust to remain
in the room is decidedly wrong. These
atoms will fill the air and finally will
settle upon their first resting place,
How then, can the house keeper quick
