Among the purely refreshing drinks
IL fruit punch. To make It use one
quart Of water, two cupfuls Of sugar

pineapple. Boil 20 minutes. Add
one-half cupful of lemon juice and one
cupful Of orange Juice. Cool and
strain. Dilute with cold water when

A fruit water for immediate use may
be made of currants, grapes, raspber

The most important Of the nutri
tious drinks is, of course, milk. WheI

Is too rich, It is customary to dilute i
with q third or half Of the amount o.

tive drink is barley water. Onto

of a lemon and two or three teaspoon
fuls Of sugar. pour a quart OF boiling
water. Let 1t stand seven or eigh
hours and strain. The Juice Of thu
lemon may be added to taste. Ric'

Furnishings That Are Just Now High
In Favor With the Leading
Decorators.

For the ideal veranda the decora'
tors are now recommending Windsor
chairs, armchairs and settees and
French fibre rugs. which come IN
brown and green in very charming
colorings.
The Windsor chairs are to be had IN
the original at very moderate prices
considering their age and in very good
reproductions at even more reasonable
rates. The French fibre rugs which
have proved so very satisfactory Tor
yeranda use are made from grape vine
hbre BY the French peasants. They
are very durable. There are also the
Celtic rugs, which come from Scot
land and are In q variety Of colors,
most Of which are decidedly vivid.
The veranda tea table which Is sup
posed to harmonic most admirably
with the Windsor chairs Is the Jaco-
bean round table, which, although very
axpensive In the antique, is to be
found In creditable reproductions.
Then for the lighting Of this quantity
furnished veranda there are wonderful
lanterns Of frosted glass and brass.
These in the original are rare and
eOrrespondingly expensive, some OF
them costing several hundred dollars
apiece. There are, Of course. many
varieties Of lanterns which even
among the genuinely old are quite
inexpensive.
