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 for
veranda use are made from grape vine
fibre by the French peasants. They
are very durable. There are also the
Celtic rigs, which come from Scot
land and are in a variety of colors,
n ost of which are decidedly vivid.
posed to harmonic most admirably
with the Windsor chairs is the Jaco-
bean round table, which, although very
expensive in the antique, is to be

Then for the lighting of this quantity
furnished veranda there are wonderful

MACAROON DESSERT
DELICIOUS LITTLE CAKE is USED
IN VARIOUS WAYS
Pounded Crumbs Most Delightful Ad-
dition to Many French Desserts
Delicious Recipe for Pudding
Numerous Other Ways Given.


macaroon, plain and unadorned, is
such a delicious little cake that many
housewives will consider it less la
Dor to elaborate 1t further. -.everthe-
less, it serves as a foundation for or
an addition to many dishes which
seem particularly appropriate for
summer dinners.
In the hands of the up-to-date con-
fectioner the macaroon has been
dressed up beyond recognition. Some
of these little cakes are favored with
chocolate and almond and decorated
on top with citron. Others are fla
vored with almonds only and filed
with a combination of candied fruits.
Still others have pink and white bon
bons embedded in them or are decor
ated on top with a crown of yellow
and white frosting, often in fancy
shape. Sometimes, too, macaroons
are pressed togther, with fancy col
ored icings between them.
Pounded macaroon crumbs are a
most delightful addition to a great
many French desserts, either sprink-
led over the top or used as a thick
ening instead of bread-crumbs. With
their crisp, almond flavor they are a
distinct addition to dessert. Ba-
varian creams, ice cold custard and
many ice cream dishes may be i'm
proved by a sprinkling of pounded
macaroons, while the popular ice
cream croquette is made by rolling

macaroons that have been broken into
small pieces-not powdered. This
will serve three persons. Pile it into
three sherbet glasses and decorate
each with three or four candied cher
ries.

Peas With Potatoes.

Those who have never tried cook
ing peas with potatoes have treat
in store When the canned peas are
used, the potatoes also must have
been previously cooked. To each can

into small cubes and put them on to
cook with the peas, seasoning lfber

then thicken by adding white sauce
or white stock to which a sufficient
