And winding road and lane.
And grass that whispers all day long
And orchards deep with shade

Forever TO be made
And he who passes Is your friend
Though ne'er again you meet.

That either come or go.

They neither care nor know.

Ideas for Porch, Garden, Excursion
and Picnic Parties.
This is the heyday Of the picnic
season. when We fee to the woods II
we can; II not we satisfy ourselves

the beach. or quiet porch party at
home.
The really enjoyable affairs are

dishes and highly seasoned salads,

cheap chafing dish is convenience
In which one may prepare a Clipped
beef, creamed; creamed eggs OF
rarebit. These. with bread and but
ter sandwiches. simple salad and
coffee. make a pleasant first course.
Fruit alone may follow as dessert.
Sandwiches are in endless variety
these days Chopped meat or fish
rubbed to a paste with cream. butter
or mayonnaise dressing and spread
on thin slices OF either brown or
white bread, make a nourishing.
wholesome sandwich.
Sandfiches should be wrapped in
waxed paper. Salad sandwiches are
nice only when fresh. as standing
only an hour will spoil their crisp
ness and make them unpalatable.
Fruits are always acceptable both as
food and drink. They quench the
thirst and satisfy the hunger without
adding burden to the body. The salts
and acids they contain cool and thin

Tomatoes are easily carried and
served on lettuce make pleasant
pddition to meat sandwich
Water is the best. most wholesome
and cheapest drink Lemonade is
great favorite. but should be used
sparingly If serving other fruit in
quantity. The lemon juice may be
extracted and carried in a bottle.
