THAT c0NS0LING CUP OF TEA
Traveller IL Wise Who Provides Her.
self With Materials for Making the
Cheering Beverage.

In travelling both at home and
abroad, there is great comfort in your
own cup Of tea. On the steamer, par
ticularly, you miss your own brand,
and the well-versed traveller who is
wise in the lore of creature comforts
never wanders far from home without
her tea caddy. It adds greatly to her
popularity, too. "Oh, If I only had q
good cup Of tea" Is the general cry
on shipboard, and then this far-sight-
ed woman produces the cheering
leaves, and she becomes the center of
attraction, and has her little coterie
every afternoon. There are some who
prefer it for the morning meal, too, in
stead Of the usual mediocre coffee with
condensed milk.
For this poignant need Of the travel

his appearance In a Broadway store
one day last week. 49,. ~. yrs !
He carried m enormous bandbox
which contained an enormous Int, on
which the man wanted what he con.

and, while looking for some one who
had the authority to negotiate the
transaction, he talked loud enough for
everybody to hear. tSsz= 81,

The single ostrich feather. uncurled

very cleverly on the smartest of mid
summer dress hats. Two models
worth studying are shown in the pic
lures given here, one of them in two
views. The beautiful Leghorn with
upturned brim is covered on the upper
brim and crown with chiffon in
color like that of the straw. Pompa-
dour chiffon, by the way, is highly
favored for this purpose and Is useful

White Net and Colored Batiste.

White Net and CoIored BAtiste.
Some of the newest dresses Tor mid
summer show com binations of white
net and colored batiste. The sleeves
and under-arm sections of the waist
are made Of net, as we'll as tho upr er
portion of the skirt. Embroidered
panels of light blue batiste In Engli7h
eyelet pattern are used from tae
waist yoke to the bottom edge Of the
skirt.
Narrow flounces of embroidery a.
pear in three successive rows In to
sides of the skirt, and are joined to
the panels. Other dresses showing 4
similar combination have pink e1n-
brofdered batiste in solid pattern
combined effectively In both waist AMI

colored model is made Of pink vols
with embroidered patterns worked oyee
In white linen floss.

Summer Porch Pillows,

One of the most popular materials
for porch pillows is wide pale piQue,
resembling corduroy. It requires no
decoration except a wide self-border
with wales running vertically and
stitched on with a cotton Of contrast
ing color.
Burlap, too, is an effective and dur
able fabric for the manufacture of
pillow tops for outdoor use. Some of
the most attractive of these are In
the brown shades worked in designs
carried out in tones 1T burnt orange,
outlined with black. end with blades
OF grass and willows In green and
blue green.
Cotton reps in tan shades are very
good looking when treated with a CEN
trail design outlined in harmonizing
colors. The background is solidly
stitched. This leaves the design in
a spaciously outlined relief.
Whipcord in tan, brown, dark green
and red shades makes hard wearing
pillow tops.

rope"
II really thought that you thought
seriously" Aunt Jane began.
II do, now and then," said Mrs.
Merriwid. "That's all that saves me.
If hadn't taken three or four seconds
to carefully weigh the advantages and
disadvantages of Mr.. Stoxan from a
matrimonial standpoint, there's no
telling what might have happened. AS
it is, fear me that the gentleman
will honk his horn beneath my bower
window about one more time, and
that will let him out. He's going to
give farewell supper tonight, only
he doesn't know it. I'm not disposed
to deny that he's a very nice man in
very many respects, but he's not to be
trusted with matches anywhere near
money, and I don't want to go to the
expense Of a fire-proof safe for what
poor Henry left me"
well, I'm glad" observed Aunt
Jane. AT the same time I'm little
surprised"
Il don't see why you should be sur
prised," said Mrs. Merriwid. II don't
say that I've any particular objection
to luxury. like good things to eat
and drink and pretty things to look
at and to wear; like broiled lobster
once in a while and don't find cham
payne hard to take; all my life I've
wanted sables, and certainly envied
that woman the pearls she was wear
ing; but also like to feel reasonably
sure of continuance of breakfast ba-
con and eggs and the ability to spring
myself for hundred dollar tailor
made and twenty-five dollar hat
once in while. Isn't that sensible?
Isn't it logical?"
That's what surprises me-" said
Aunt Jane.
III Mr.. Stoxan could only think up
some way Of enjoying himself. it
wouldn't be so bad" sighed Mrs. Mer-
riwid; "but breaking the speed ordi-

MELISSA TURNS DOWN A PRINCE
AND A GOOD FELLOW.

II declare, it seems to me as If I
hadn't seen you for about a month,
Melissa" said Mrs. Merriwid's ma
ternal maiden aunt Jane. "Not more
than long enough at time to ask
you when you expected to be home"
Mrs. Merriwid laughed as unsteady
as it is possible for a woman to laugh
when she is bent double, with her
back hair thrown forward.
II guess it is about a month since
Mr.. Stoxan began calling, isn't it,"
pursued Aunt Jane, archly.
Mrs. Merriwid resumed her upright
position with a jerk that threw her
hair back. about that, dearie," she
