vTVHE pretty and comfortable Gus
tom of serving afternoon tea Is,
u in many houses, quite as much
part of the regular household
routine as breakfast or dinner The
tea may be simply served for the
family and casual visitors who drop in
at the ''tea-hour." or it may be quite
an elaborate affair, with invitations
and many guests.
When 1t assumes the proportions of
reception, the dining table is the
center of attraction, and guests are
escorted thither. For cup of tea
with chance caller, the tea-table is
brought into the drawing-room or sit

suggestion of possible dust about that
custom not quite savory to the tea
drinker. To meet this change in
fashion small portable table is used.
For this most simple and pleasing
way of entertaining ones friends the
preparations need not be elaborate.
The tea-table may stand in the cor
ner of the drawing-room, or room
opening off 1t.
If the hostess expects many callers,
she should ask friend to preside
over the tea urn or kettle. If cot
fee or chocolate Is to be served an
other friend may be asked to pour
this. The second beverage is not nee
essary, as the one for which the
function is named is sufficient and is
generally liked

to bring in freshly boiling water as

housewife usually finds that the

Up to the Farmer.

When a farmer breeds Indifferent
cattle, horses or sheep he receives
less for his labor and feed than be
should receive, adds less to the wealth
of his state than the upto-date farm
er, and is at disadvantage when he
undertakes to secure for himself and
family the things which help to make
life worth living, says writer in an
exchange. | do not mean to say that
the individual farmer owes more to
the community or to the state than
the laborer, the lawyer, the doctor, the
educator, the preacher or the business
man; but we do expect more from
them as a whole. because there are
more of them than all these others
combined.
