SERVICE AT AFTERNOON TEA
Flower Basket to Hold the Cakes Is,
One Of the Best Of the Ideas
Recently Evolved.

For the woman who loves cup OF
tea In the afternoon and who also
likes small cookie or cheese cracker
or some such tid-bit to nibble, while
slipping her tea, there is a new sug-
gestion in the way of serving the wa
fers and cakes.
Often even a sandwich plate will be
too small to hold as many crackers
as are needed when three or four
friends drop in for cup of tea and
gossip, and for this a flower basket,
the style that is fiat with tall handle,
generally used for the garden when
picking flowers, is just the thing, for
1t holds most surprising number of
cakes. and in this way one can easily
pass large number of tid-bits at one
time without the least inconvenience,
and for crackers, decorated with jelly
and cheese and such edib1es as cannot
be laid on top of each other, this fiat
basket is unsurpassed.

introduced. White Grape is a very
beautiful fabric and the process Of
water proofing to which English
Grape is subjected has made it prac-
teal
A turban and veil are pictured
here developed in white. The turban
is Of crepe Georgette with veil of rich
net bordered with white English
Grape. There is no trimming on the
turban but the Grape border on the
veil pinned to the front Of the turban
and turned back provides a beautiful
decoration.
Almost a duplicate of this model is
shown in black. These serve to
demonstrate that 1t is now simply
matter of choice between black and
white mourning. The introduction of
Grape in the body of the hat or in
the veil or trimming is significant Of
mourning and makes these models
appropriate for first or deep mourn
ing. Grape is the only fabric every
where acknowledged as correct for
this purpose

did not take root and spread until
after the invention of money.
It is pretty safe to say that the
family pocketbook is not carried by
the wife Of the man who keeps his
seat in the car while women with
babies in their arms have to stand.
Some people think the man who
pays as he goes has a poor chance to
get very far ahead.
A woman generally has to have a
long time to make up her mind, but
lightning is slow In comparison when
she changes it.
By looking closely the available man

Is probable that the idea has been
well received because the most au-
thoritative shops continue to show
white mourning.
For the summer season wells are
made of net bordered with Grape.
Those for first mourning are large
but cool and light, nevertheless. The
very large, coarse mesh with wide
Grape border, either in black or white,
can be worn without any incon-
venience. It Is probable that white
