PRETTY TABLE FAvORS
DECIDED NOVELTIES THAT ARE
EASY TO FASHION.
Any Number Of Devices to Choose
From-6unches of sweetrneat
FIowers-Plnk Roses for the
Birthday Cake.

The popularity OF the little velve
or silk bunch of flowers for the cor
sage, with beautifully chosen colors--
bright ones or weary" ones together
only in one bunch-has led to the
fashion abroad of another sort of lit
tie posy.
They are choosing punches OF sweet
meat flowers for the table. and very
pretty these are and quite EASY to
make.
You get green-covered wire and a
spirit lamp. You burn one end OF the
wire in the flame and when red-hot
you stick into a piece of melted SUI
gar, which hardens and binds the
stem to the flower
Then you make wires for separate
petals and coat them with sugar icing
and tint them, say, pink or white for
roses, mauve for violets, and use eth
er spinach-colored ioing or else an
gelica for the leaves. Orange drops
you heat and roll in granulated sugar
for centers of the flowers. The de-
'hNNo may bC Ntly HuuiSIOuS.
For instance. you may make the
dearest little bunch f white sweet
meat snowdrops to lay by each plate,
or one of red autumn berries, tiny
dahlias, daisies-what not. Arrange
fiat bunch of pink roses and 1t
charmingly decorates birthday cake.
The greatest fun is to have a diff
ferent flower to lay before each plate
at a dinner table. All sorts of ready
made sweets, tiny to big, that you get
at confectioner's may be pressed in
TO the service, and split. skinned Jor-
dan almonds make good petals; red
comfits may be adopted for pimper-
nels, and so on.
Twist some crystallized violets or
roses up into bunch. adding leaves
and wire, and pop this into little
basket, and to the handle fasten. some
violet flowers. and you have a dainty
little ornament to set on the table at
dessert.

MOURNING DEVICES OF WAX
For That Occasion, and Others, There
Are Any Number Of Odd Con-
celts In the Shops.

A quaint device for a girl In mourn
/ ing is box OF a dozen black sticks
OF sealing wax and a seal with min
iature urn and cypress copied from an
old mourning piece
For quite young children stamI
with a single initial can be bought al
small cost. The letter chosen is usual
ly that of the first name or OF the pet
name" AS children like sealing their
letters here is suggestion for birth
days:
For the writing table a novel orna.
meat bearing on the revived fad OF
sealing letters is small stand of
white or colored glass. mounted In sill
yer, with an adjustable silver candle
holder In the center Of the. tray and
silver racks for the wax at each side.
The taper can be moved to any angle
convenient for sealing.
From Paris comes word that a lam
guage In wax has been adopted. This
pretty conceit is sure to appeal to de-
butantes and young girls.
For announcements OF an engage
ment or wedding Invitations white
wax is used; for~ordinary invitations
brown with specks OF gold: for busi-
ness, bright red The sentimental
carry the fancy further and use ruby
fer secret love; green for hope; deep
blue for fit OF the blues; pale green
for reproach, and yellow for jealousy.
Some letter writers are provided
with four-sided seal cut on the four
faces OF carnelian stone or cairn.
sorm. These are varied to suit indi-
vfdual taste. and may be a crest for
formal correspondence. a monogram
for business, or an appropriate motto
for Invitations and love affairs.
Girls vie with each other in odd de-
vices for these seals, and old curios
are being studied for symbols and mot
toes.

Every silver drawer should have a

II is best to peel out the velvet that

fat old-fashioned round collar with a

will be welcomed by the woman who

Skirts are fuller. at the waist. but
this is merely that they are cut rath-
