handicap. Miss Erickson replied In the
negative. expressing IN" belief that

TEA TABLE
NOVELTIES

II you have not q regular tea table,
an easy way of serving the cheering
cup that never is more cheering than
in the late afternoon, is to have a
Japanese tea basket and keep II In an
inconspicuous part of the living.room,
where IL will be always in readiness
These baskets, according to their size,
hold a service for from two to dozen
persons, and, In addition to the alcohol
stove, accommodate teapot, dreamer,
sugar bowl, cups, saucers and plates
of Old Canton, royal medallion, Satsu-
ma. Delft, willow or Semedi and the
various familiar wares made In Japan.
Best of all, the thickly wadded basket
makes an ideal tea Cosey and one
which is easily handled.
When only two persons are to be
served with tea. the simplest way of
making the beverage Is to use pair
of tea balls. These come In solid or
German silver attached to handles OF
celluloid. carved deerhorn or silver
| and none of them are too expensive
for the woman of moderate income to
get along without.
For the tea table which Is kept set

DELICIOUS FUDGE

Most of us have what the cook calls
luck" with fudge good, bad and
Indifferent, and our best efforts some.
times produce a variegatcd mixture Of
sugar humps that puts our cookery to
shame. Most of the trouble lies In the
very last round of the making.
A woman famous for the delicious,
creamy quality of her fudge, says
this: "Do not beat all the consistency
out of your fudge. and then expect it
to be firm, smooth and creamy"
Sounds reasonable, doesn't II? In.
stead" SAYS the fudge expert, "let
your fudge boil until II gathers into
cold water Then. instead of beating,
beating, beating. pour the mixture in.
to another vessel, preferably of earth

PIANO NOTES

a great many pOssessOrs of fine pi-

placing them to the best advantage.
An upright piano gives forth better
tones II it Is at an angle from the

hide the works at the back very ef-
Gectivcly
The piano should only be placed
thus, however, If the light is evenly
distributed about the room.

in the successful placing OF a piano

HOBBIES
RULING OF NATIONAL AssociA
TON GREAT VICTORY.
For the Half Mile Harness Men-Ban
Lifted On the Rule Governing
"The Straps"
(By Multi

When the news was flashed from
New York that the National Trotting
Association had b. n vote OF 299 20
81. voted to lift the ban on hobbies.
except the two, three and four-year.
olds when they start in their respect.
i've classes cut permitted to use the
straps when racing in open classes,
there was a general feeling OF relief
among the half mile campaigners.
Had hobbies been barred IL would
have practically "outlawed" 200 half
mile sidewheelers and caused loss
OF many thousands OF dollars TO horse.
men But had the ban been placed
on the hobbies. Wheeling. with the
other Lake Erie cities. would have
in all probabilities Withdrawn from
the association.
The defeat of the hobble ban was
not due 10 the grand circuit owners.
They were the men who were back
OF the move. but il was brought about
by the proxy vote OF the half mile
racing men. Two years ago this asso-
citation adopted a rule that in four
years would have wiped ont the
straps" but the vote OF the twice
around men killed the rule.
Regarding the time rule, the asso.
citation went on record allowing horses
having mile track records three sec
onds on the half mile rings when en-
tering n race slower than the mark
held on the mile oval.
Rule No. 10. section I. will now
read: no heat shall be called after
sunset by the calendar. that is. local
solar time. but any heat called before
that time must be finished"
Hereafter drivers will not have 10
drive their horses In a race for every
heat and every horse 10 finish, nor
suffer punishment for not doing so.
This will not construe a horse hope
