Summer Porch Pillows.

One of the most popular materials
for porch pillows is wide pale pique,
resembling corduroy. 1t requires no
decoration except wide self-bord er
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 Of burnt orange,
outlined with black, and with blades
of grass and Willows ta green and
blue green.
Cotton reps in tan shades are very
good looking when treated with 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.

Another very pleasing way to serve

TAKE PLACE OF MEAT
DELICIOUS VEGETABLE SOUPS
FOR THE HOT WEATHER.
Something of Novelty 10 One Call
Ing for Fresh Garden Peppers
Onion Soup Brought to Per-
fection In France.

An housekeeper whose family
doesn't care very much for flesh food
in summer can find any number of de-
licious vegetable soups to take the
place of meat decoctions, and having
once formed the habit of using them
it is likely to be a lasting one.
The following soup, calling for fresh
garden peppers, Is a novelty: Mince
three large peppers and three small
onions together and stew them gently,
till tender, in little butter-about
two tablespoonfuls-w without brown.

generous tablespoonful of flour and
gradually stir the mixture into quart
of boiling milk. Season with salt and
pepper. Gradually add also, stirring
we'll, the yolks of three eggs, and then
remove from the fire Immediately and
serve very hot with croutons. Do not
let it cool long or it may curdle. II
one or two of the peppers are a
bright red, instead Of green, they will
lend pretty tints to the soup.
For French onion soup, which re,
turned travellers describe as food for
the gods, fry four onions in two table
spoonfuls of butter or very nice soup
fat The latter Is to be preferred be-
cause 1t Is cheaper. When they are
quite brown add a scant half cupful
of flour, stirring all the time. When
the flour is brown mix in carefully "a
little at time) about three pints OF
boiling water or stock. Season the
whole with salt and pepper and put
the soup near the back of the stove
where it will merely simmer for halt
an hour. Mash two potatoes and add
enough warm milk to them to, make a
puree. Stir this puree into the soup
and If too thick add little fresh
milk. Then strain and boil ten min.

The following combination Of rice
and lettuce makes a delicious soup:
Have ready the large leaves Of three
good-sized heads of lettuce. After
draining, chop them up and put them
in a saucepan with about fifth of a
pound of butter and cook for five
minutes, stirring frequently. Stir the
whole into two quarts of white stock

teaspoonful of pepper, half tea.

well-cleaned rice Cover the kettle
and let it cook for three-quarters of
an hour. Then strain the soup
through fine sieve. Let the soup
heat once again, but do not let 1t
boil. Stir in a pint of sweet cream
and serve very hot, with croutons.

Good In Spinach.

Very young spinach Is the best, and
the fresh, juicy stalks and all can be
cooked and minced together.
Poached eggs on spinach form
familiar dish, but the Italians vary it
agreeably. First cook the spinach;
then strain and mince it, and then
stew it gently with butter; then beat
up six new-laid eggs with it and
stir these, and one ounce Of Parmesan
cheese into the spinach with a wood.
en- spoon. Toss about rapidly until
the mixture thickens, but do not let 1t
boil. Serve on toast.
To cook spinach the good cook uses
no water. First it has been thoroughly
cleaned and washed until every grain
of sand has disappeared. Then put in
covered dish on range, stirring often;
sufficient moisture will develop. By
using extra water much of the good
disappears when it Is poured off. II
takes about twenty minutes to cook it.

THAT CONSOLING CUP OF TEA
Traveller Is 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. 1t adds greatly to her
popularity, too. "Oh, If l only had a
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
er, a charming little tea box of ma
hogany containing a small silver tea
caddy and little tea ball, reproducing
in miniature tea kettle, has been put
upon the market. 1t Is very simple in

NEGLIGEES OF CHINA SILK
Soft, Reclining Garments for the Hours
When Ceremony Is for the Time
Forgotten.

Pale tinted china silk kimonos en-
broidered in self tones are charming
and soft, for they, like SO many of the
seasons garments, are made Of the
thinnest Of thin china silk. These have
a collar which turns back fiat and
very short sleeves, the back of the
robe is plain, and the entire garment
Is unlined. In pink they suggest
spring blossoms.
In this very thin china silk may also
be purchased dainty waists made sail
or fashion, the collar, tie and pocket
are of striped gray and white china
silk. At about the same price come
plain white china silk waists with high
collars. Marquisette waists for sep
arate blouse" wear are still very high
in price; some are made of high neck,
and others Dutch neck. Much Cluny
lace Is to be seen in the wash shirt
waists of inexpensive mode. These
also come both Dutch neck and

White Net and CoIored Batlste.

Some of the newest dresses for mid
summer show combinations of white
net and colored batiste. The sleeves
and under-arm sections of the waist
are made of net, as we'll as the upper
portion of the skirt. Embroidered
panels of light blue batiste in English
eyelet pattern are used from the
waist yoke to the bottom edge of the
skirt.

In white linen floss.
