DAINTlNEsS IN SERVING TEA
Small Things That Count For Much
IN This Most Pleasant After
noon Function.

AS young women are so often asked
TO pour tea for their friends who are
entertaining, they should realize what
a difference it makes how the tea is
served II this is done in careless
manner the guests have always the
feeling that something may at any
moment be upset, and the quiet and
repose, which is an essential element
in that most peaceful function, is lost.
It is well for the person who pours
the tea to rearrange the tray before
the arrival of the guests. so that each
piece is just where she is accustomed
to have 1t, otherwise she is apt to fun

far as possible reaching over the ia

To Keen Pumpkins.

Many lovers of pumpkin pies object
to the fiat taste of the canned article.
Pumpkins, gathered before frost is
heavy, the stem coated with ceiling
wax, and stored in dry place, can be
kept from one season to another and
the flavor is not impaired in the least
The secret lies in gathering them be-
fore the frost and in excluding the
