Envelopes In,
Napkin rings are u Of date. The
time honored circlet of silver. ivory OF
carved wood will no longer grace the
tables of the truly up to date house
keeper. In their place has appeared
the daintiest of table accessories, The
napkin envelope.
These dainty receptacles are made of
fine linen that matches the center
pieces and doilies used elsewhere OF
the table.
They are decorated with embroidery
Of course. but here there Is opportu
atty for more elaborate work, and DIFF
ferent work II you choose. For exam
pie, a girl can make her own napkin
envelope, embroidered with a pretty
spray of her favorite flowers and he,
monogram or one initial in one corne
and this is a good plan. for then if she
goes away from home on a visit 1t car
be taken along to be used by hel
hostess In place Of the usual ring.
You can obtain the pattern by open
ing an ordinary business envelope six
and one-half or seven inches by three
and one-half inches wide. Cut the lin
en- according to this pattern and but
tonhole the edges. either straight or In
shallow scallops. Then stamp the de
sired design on the plain portion Of
the linen that corresponds to the side
of the envelope which bears the ad
dress when sending a letter. You can
choose q design of flowers that will
allow a blossom or a spray Of leaves
to be carried over on the flap, or that
space may be reserved for the mono
gram or initial Of the owner.
Another method Of making the envel-
ope is to cut an oblong piece Of linen
1914 by 61A inches, scallop and button
hole the edges. From end measure
three and one-half inches and fold the
linen over nat, so that 1t will lie over
the other fold, as does the Dap OF the
envelope. This done, the embroidery t.
worked on the outside Of the flap. and
the ends of this oblong envelope are
caught together with the buttonhole
stitch or by narrow ribbon run through
small eyelets that have previously beeL
worked,

WHAT TO HAVE FOR BREAKFAST,

be), hot buttered toast, marmalade.

and bread and milk.
Another-Pigeon pie, stewed kidney,
milk rolls, dry toast, brown and white
bread, mustard and cress. milk por-
ridge.
A person who could digest such
breakfasts az these in August ought
to make a good soldier. 1t is said.

much. but we certainly are low on
breakfasts, compared to the English.

Doardina House Business Good For
Woman Of Executive Ability.
In the Woman's Home Companion a
woman writes a most interesting ac-
count Of her experiences as a keeper OF
a boarding house. She thinks that
where a woman has a very small
amount Of capital the boarding house
business is the best business in the
world. Following is a brief extract:
1.-The actual reason for my success
in keeping boarders is this: l have
given my boarders clean rooms, good
service and excellent homelike meals
well cooked from the best materials
and served simply and efficiently.
Breakfast is from 7 to $50. They
have their choice Of two cooked and
one uncoOked cereal and the fruits OF
the season, eggs In every style OF
chops. hot rolls and coffee. Some take
eggs beaten in milk and others hot
boiled milk. l take pains to have the
tastes Of the boarders catered to. That
pays.
- Luncheon Is from II to l O'Clock.
We have q hot entree. a cold meat.
preserves and cake. plenty of bread
and butter. coffee. tea and iced tea.
Dinner Is from 6 to 7:15. We have
soup, one kind Of meat. but that su-
perlatively good: two vegetables, a sal
ad and q ~dessert-not an elaborate
menu. but cooked well. daintly serv-
ed and made Of the best materials
and the best variety. We once ran
forty days without duplicating a des
sert. That's why my guests are per-
manent and paying"
