THERE is not much scope for variety
when planning out a design for an
Easter cake. However, a basket of
eggs" is not often seen and will be
quite an addition to the tea table. The
cake itself is made from a sponge cake
formula. For decorating will be re-
quired white icing. angelica and a large
piece of almond paste.
Mix together for the icing the white

make a stiff cream. Cut off the top OF
the cake quite level and then scoop
II out very slightly near the sides. Now
ice It rather thiclkly all round, bat not
at the top. Cut some pieces of angelica
about half an inch or three-quarters
wide and deep enough to go down the
side OF the cake and stick up just
above the top. Place these in an up
right position all around the cake about
an inch apart pressing them i'm while
the icing is soft. Then cut some small
straight pieces to make crossbars for
the basket and put them in position,
three between each OF the upright bars.
Set the cake in a warm place, and
while it is drying prepare the eggs.
Take equal parts of ground almonds
and powdered sugar and work these
into a stiff froth paste with the well
beaten yolk Of an egg. The quantity OF
paste required will, of course, depend
on the size Of the cake and how many
eggs are needed to fill the basket.
Breakfast Eggs.-Serve the proverbial
boiled egg at Easter breakfast in nest

POTATOES. If there are children to be
present the eggs can be colored.

Did you ever stop to think why it
is that most of the people i'm the
world who are just terribly busy" are
women?
This applies not only TO women in
the home, who really have a pretty
good excuse for their strenuous days,
but TO business women as well.
"What's the reason that women are
always nearly worked to death?' said
one business woman to another re-
Gently.
zone seldom hears men talking about
how busy they are and how much they
have TO do. aud yet they manage to
get things done on time.
If vouIl stop to think a minute you
will decide that it is because men. as
rule. are less erratic In the way they
do their work.
In nine cases out of ten a woman
can do a given piece Of work more
quickly than a man.
She likes to do a half days work in
an hour. but at the end Of the hour
she's exhausted, and it's two hours be-
fore she can do much but routine
work.
Perhaps in the end one gets as much
done as the other, but the difference
happens TO be in the nerve force of the
worker when the work is done.
Women generally let their business
tire them out more than do men, They
finish a day exhausted, where man
will need only a good dinner and a
half hours relaxation to make him
forget that he has done a days work.
There are a lot Of exceptions to the
rule of course; but for the most part,
the thing that most women need 10
learn is how TO travel at an even jog
trot. It may be less inspiring than a
series Of spectacular hundred yard
dashes, but it's a lot more sure and
not half so hard on the traveller.

brides. Here is an idea that is worth

Every girl has a favorite color. and
novel way to entertain for spring
bride is to have a shower Of things of
this color, Just as an original hostess is
planning for a chum of hers who is an
Easter bride and whose favorite color
IS lavender.
The invitations are TO be issued in
the form Of informal little notes TO the
brides friends asking them to a ''vio-
let shower" In the notes she will ex-
plain to them that they might bring
anything they wished provided it was
i'm some shade Of violet. She will also
ask her friends to send their offerings
the day before the shower.
In the little room to be set aside for
the shower is to be hung from the CELL
ing a parasol made Of violet paper. and
hanging from this are to be numerous
streamers of violet ribbon. When all
the guests assemble the bride is to be
told to pull the streamers one by one.
Attached to the end of each ribbon will
be dainty packages done up in white
tissue paper tied with lavender ribbon
containing the gifts.
