Afternoon Tea on the Lawn

~ ARDEN parties and afternoon
- lawn teas are practically the
va same thing FOR sometimes the
simple words lawn tea" in one
cbrner OF visiting card may mean a
considerable and gayly dressed
throng. A lawn tea, however. is gem
orally a more modest function. al
though the refreshments usually go
beyond tea and wafers For the very
smart lawn tea the Invitations should
be engraved in script on large white
cards and issued in The na,nc Of the
hostess only. Cards sent to persons
living far away also contain u line
of script or handwriting at tho bot
tom Of the card giving Information
regarding trains. etc.
In case the planned unah Is 60 be
too modest for the Invitations men
toned the hostess may write in ink
(below her name) on her visiting
card the words lawn tea with the
date Of the day aud the hours for the
function. II is proper for the in
Nited person to respond AZ once with
either gracious acceptance OF an
even more courteous excuse for not
attending.
1t makes no difference whether the
scene OF the lawn tea is laid in the
cottage garden OF the splendid
grounds Of the fine estate as regards
the preparations required Of the
hostess. They arc essentially the
same in either case. The little patch
of green or the spreading lawns must
be faultlessly mown for the occasion,
walks should be sprinkled with fresh
gravel and leaves and faded blossoms
picked from all flower beds IN view.
The lower floor Of the mouse can
be Furnished to brilliancy ard deco
rated with flowers. doors and win
dows are left Wide open. and the ve-
randa holds easy chairs ana footstools
for those who grow weary Of out
doors. Frequently the hostess can
make the lawn tea a brighter affair
with the addition of piano music,
contributed by Musical guest In
this event the plano can be placed on
the veranda or at the WiHduwa. where
the music can be heard IN the garden.
But music is by no means obl!ga-

fair of the KIND is conduvcd without
any music whatever. Easy and ami

ZOO OTOR bonnets are being worn
Ny by every woman or girl who
rides in an automobile, and
these dainty little affairs are quite
simple In construction. In fact, they
are SO simple that any girl can easily
make several OF them with very little
expense. The mein idea is to get the
proper shape following that OF the

kAB was sunk in Kiel harbof. the
" commander sent a telephunsI
buoy to the surface, by which means
the rescuers were told that the crew
OF the submarine had oxygen enough
to last them forty-elght hours, 80 that
there was no more hurry than neces-
sary. Unfortunately, communication
WITH the buoy stopped afterwards by

BY this time, however, the boat had
been raised so far that communication
could be resumed by making Morse
signals on the coming tower by sraps.

ELEVATED TRAIN

Speeds Along Spouting Flames,
with Passengers in a
Panic.

NEW YORK. jan. 4.-Fire which
broke out in the middle car of a speed
ing IL train at the highest point Of
the Ninth avenue elevated railroad
furnished an unusual early morning
spectacle for uptown New York today.
The car was Of the old wooden pattern
and burned ike finder.
About thirty passengers fed to the
rear end of the train In q panic as the
grinding brakes jolted the cars to a
stop. The motorman. the guards and
the passengers left the car to its tate
and crawled over the slender steel
~trestle, 1875 feet above the street, to the
nearest station. No one was hurt,
although a high wind and q coating
Of sleet over the ties made their ven
ture a >perilous one.
Firemen who arrived on the scene a
few moments later pulled long lines of
hose up the station stairway and along
the track to the stalled train. They
were half an hour In extinguishing the
blaze, and the car where the fire start
ed was entirely destroyed. The blaze
was probably due to q defective insu-
lation.
