INFORMAL SUNDAY EVENING.

For one wishing to entertain lntor-
mally a Sunday night supper is a pleas
ant n economical way. Since this
kind of entertaining is reserved for in
innate friends, everything about the
supper should be informal. The table
should be carefully set. remembering
that dainty service contributes much to
the enjoyment of food.
Some housekeepers prefer TO use a
tablecloth for these occasions. Where
the dining table has a polished top an
embroidered tea cloth or one with a
drawn work border Inc a set of hem
stitched doilies is sufficient. Flowers
or fruit should be placed in the center
of the table. A pretty table decora-
ton is a low wide mouther jar filled
with s~easonable flowers. Silver or china
candlesticks with candles the same
color as the flowers give a dainty touch.
They are always used in pairs, II
are placed at o sides of the boquet.
If iced tea or lemonade is served in
stead Of hot coffee the drink may be
poured into a glass pitcher and be
placed at the mistress I'VE 1t is in
good taste for such occasions to place
the dishes we'll garnished on the table
ready to pass.
A small dish of stuffed olives, others
for radishes and cheese balls, add much
to the appearance of the table. The
fruit and potato salads look cool and
tempting served in large glass bowls.
The sandwiches, fish and cold meats
should be arranged on platters with the
incest care. They may be attractively
garniShed.
When a hostess has Delft china a
Dutch supper is sure to be attractive,
and is easily prepared. A Delft pattern
tissue paper napkin printed in blue and
white is placed on the center, with
doilies to match at each place. An eff
fective centerpiece is a Delft vase filed
with white flowers. China candlesticks,
with candles OF the same color as the
flowers, enhance the beauty of the ia
bic. The menu should have as many
Dutch dishes as possible. A platter filled
with cold meats makes a good main
course. Potato salad goes we'll with
cold meats and is easily made. The
supper may be finished with some
simple dessert. A Bavarian cream Is
suitable for a cold supper and not diff.
cuIt to make.

We soon learned that Postum does

Julia Ward Howe Tells What
Prompted the Author TO Write
His First Story.
MS FIrst story.
From the Baltimore Sur

[AAS 1afAF
ct was through the encouragement
of his uncle, Sam Ward-my brother
that he was persuaded to become a
writer. When this was first sug-
gested TO him he laughed at the idea,
but we told him that this was the life
for which he was fitted. My nephew's
telling OF the story of Mr.. Jacobs. a
diamond merchant of Simla, so inter-
ested my brother that he insisted up
on its being published and the story
appeared as Mr., Isaacs.'
1T was at our home in Newport
that this book was written. My
nephew often came to me for advice,
while writing the book, and l thought
it very good. Its worth was proved
later by its popularity. Together we
used to read over the chapters of DR..
Claudius,' which he wrote here at our
home on Beacon street. As a young
man he was brilliant and versatile,
giving promise of what he was TO do
later.
Like most men of American birth
who spend their early days and receive
their education abroad, Marion did
not grow up an American. nor was he In
sympathy with American life and GUS
toms. The people OF Italy, however,
among whom he chose to make his
home. loved him and respected his
work. Denying himself the social life,
which his popularity offered him, he
set himself TO the writing OF books.
He was always frail physically. and /
think that the ask he undertook was
too hare for him, so that he died from
overwork while still a young man. He
was not q philosophixing man nor q
poet, but hls wor appealed to the peo-
pie and they loved him."
