TEA TABLE EQUIPAGE
MANY AND VARIED ARE THE
PRETTY THINGS OFFERED.
Modern Hostess Should Have No
Trouble In Securing Perfect APP
pointments - Designers Ger
talnly Have Zone Their Best.

To almost every woman the tea
table is a matter OF especial pride,
and to have her tea table equipped
with the most charming furnishings
or with novel and amusing ones is
one of the great ambitions of her do
nestle life. There are 80 many at
tractive articles for the tea table that
1t is indeed difficult to choose among
them, and there are so many attractive
styles Of furnishing it that almost all
women have pangs of regret when
/ they select one style only to find after
several articles have been purchased
that there are so many pretty things
to be bought In quite a different style
that will not at all accord with what
they have already purchased
For the Colonial tea table there is a
wonderful old Revere silver. OF course
only the woman of great wealth can
hope to obtain original pieces of this
silver, but copies of 1t are made by
moAern silversmiths. The silver made
by hand, with it's wonderful color that
no machine made pieces can attain. is
the desire Of all women who really are
connoisseurs in the equipment of a
tea table.
Then there is the Colonial china in
It's many quaint designs and adorable
shapes, all of 1t expensive, but so
delightful that 1t is we'll worth the in
vestment. And the glass for such a
tea table should. be the fine old cut
glass, just little cut, not heavy and
glaring like the modern pieces.
II one wants to have a tea table in
the English style there is some new
china in the old Chelsea pattern,
white with black bands, on which
there are rose garland decorations.
This china harmonizes with the paint
ed furniture and the black ground
chtntzes and brocades that are now
80 fashionable. With 1t the Sheffield
plate pieces are in perfect accord.
And the Dresden tea table, with It's
quaint little pieces so full Of color so
charming in design! And the silver
wonderful little hand made pieces,
delicately carved and brought over a
few at a time, perhaps as the souve-
Mrs of happy summers spent in Euro

HELD COURT WHILE SWIMMING
Experience Of English Legal LumInary
That Probably Will Re-
main Unique.

To act in legal capacity while en-
joying a morning swim-surely a
unique record in the annals of law
once fell to the lot of Vice-Chancel-
lor Shadwell. The then duke of
Newcastle had commenced to cut
down the timber at Clumber in such
a rapid and wholesale manner as to
raise the anger Of his eldest son. Lord
Lincoln, who, finding expostulation
useless. turned to the law and sought
an injunction to restrain his father.
Although 1t was long vacation, he or
dered his solicitor to press matters
forward, for the magnificent trees
we're falling at an alarming rate.
So up to town posted the attorney,
and had the affidavits drawn up the
same night. The following morning
he repaired to the vice-chancellor's
house on the banks Of the Thames, to
find on his arrival that his lordship
had gone for his mornings swim.
With exemplary presence Of mind he
chartered a boat, and, after stift
pull, came up with the judge, and at
once stated his case. Meanwhile the
vice-chancellor trod water, and, on
the injunction being formally applied
for, granted 1t forthwith and resumed
his swim.-London Tit-Bits.

YOU CAN MAKE WASHING EASY
There VIII Be No After Aches II the
Tubs Are only Placed
High Enough.

The washday is often spoken OF as
blue Monday" because 1t is usua ly a
day Of hard work followed by days
OF recovery from such aches as won.
an thinks her due. Now, 1t has been
definitely proved, says j. Howard
Frick, Instructor Of Medical correction
gymnastics in the Samaritan hospital
OF Germantown, according to the New
York Tribune, that washing clothes
has nothing to do with making wom-
an feel gloomy. but that the way she
does 1t has all to Go with her after
health.
The most common complaint of
women after a days washing is the
terrible backache which almost COM
pels them to go to bed This is some
times followed by headache in the
middle of the head and behind the
eyes, which often last for days. Now.
what is the cause of these after ef-
fects? Certainly ordinary work should
not entail such after sufferings. The
whole cause is the position of the
woman while working over the tubs.
The majority of wash benches are too
low and the woman must stoop over
while at work. This causes the mus
cles Of the abdomen to relax, which al
lows the stomach liver, kidneys, and.
in fact. all the organs, to fall forward
out of their normal positions, caus-
Ing the terrible after effects of such
work.
The proper position before a tub is
a perfectly erect position. Here it is
impossible for the abdominal organs
to fall out Of position, as the abdom-
inal wall is tense, as 1t should be when
in the erect position.
Another point of value in the erect
position is the fact that the wringing
OF tie clothes is much easier, since
the whole force of the arm can bel
used without having to exert an effort
to keep the erect position.
The lifting of the tubs is an entire
ly unnecessary labor. When they are
not of the stationary kind they can
be emptied by means CT siphon.
