FOR THE TEA TABLE,

A woman who has lived abroad for many years, where they make a cup of tea as carefully as they make cake, says the lemon should never be cut until it Is to be used Have small sharp knife on the table and cut each slice as desired, never cutting dishful of lemons to stand for an hour or even a few minutes.
 A good tid-bit for the tea table can be made with Triscuit and mar malade. Break each piece in two. making thus two small squares, put row of Neufchatel cheese around the edge and drop of orange or tangerine marmalade in the center. This makes just the right sized wal CT and has loscious flavcr.
 Instead of lemon in the tea, try a Maraschino cherry and a teaspoonful of the wine that comes with them Or another flavor that may be used in tea. is rum. This is called Rus sian tea. One uses no sugar or cream or lemon. and just tea spoonful of rum.

REINFORCING BUToNHoLEs.

Before beginning to make button holes it is a good plan to reinforce the material in which they are to be made. You will find your button holes are more regular and will withstand constant wear better.
 The material for reinforcing de- bends on the material of the waist. For chiffon. use chiffon; for broad cloth, silk or not too heavy cam bric: for silk, thin muslin or silk. Whichever material s used must be cut on the bias, and if cambric and muslin are used it is wiser to shrink them first to prevent any later shrinking when the waist is pressed. cleaned or laundered.
 This bias piece should be cut about one inch wider than your but tonholes are to be long, and extend the length of the waist. It should be pasted very firmly to the wrong side of the waist material before anything else Is done

COlORING GLOBES.

One can make electric light globes look like frosted glass with alcohol and shellac. Take a little white shellac. thin with alcohol, dip the globe into it and hang to dry. It is good imitation of frosted glass If a color is desired. get egg dyes and dissolve the mixture in wood alcohol and mix into it little shel- lac. Dip the globes into the mix ture and you get a pretty shade. If at any time you wish to have the clear globe aga'n the color can be removed by soaking the globe in wood alcohol. This is a clever idea for coloring globes when a color scheme is desired during party or entertainment

 NEW YORK Since the palmy jays of Cleopatra. the fan has been & fad of fashion. and a weapon of flirtatious woman's wiles. Of course, there are fans and fans. Ranking first in popularity is the baseball fan Ia American. type affected solely for outdoor sport.
 For the evening toilette, however, the fan for the moment is built of natural colored ostrich plumes mounted on tortoise shell or ivory. 1t Is of Gargantuan proport ons and serves to screen admirably the too generous display of snowy white bosom revealed by the next-to-noth- ing evening bodices. The sable plumes of black ostrich. and also the snowy white are lovely with either ivory or amber sticks These os- trich feather fans are regular in shape but stunning one of qu!lls Is graduated from one side to the other with an irregularity of line most bizarre
 Hand painted fans of gauge are being revived along with the craze for all things quaint and old fash toned. They remind one of the da nty patched and powdered Mar pulses of Louis XVI's court.
 Most Of the painted fans are tiny toylike things. scarce large enough to veil my lady's furtive yawn Ex- luisite old lace fans of Brussels and Venetian point are fairy like with Ii my evening gowns, and it is only a matter of taste or pocket book whether they be wee or huge
 Quite the newest shape for the lit- tle fans is three-sided effect like he halfw of a hexagon or two sides shooting up to piquant point in the middle instead of the graceful semi-eircle of the regular fan.
 Floral fans of viclets, lilies of the valley, roSebuds or forget-me- nots on stem green sticks are scent ed with their proper perfume and when closed, cunningly simulate a corsage bouquet. Curiously wrought and barbarically jeweled fan chains as we'll as strands of tiny pearls are in vogue for the Lilliputian bauble fans. but were chains de rigeur for the huge feather fans, log chains must needs be pressed into service.

A USE FOR OLD UNDERWEAR.

Old knit underwear garments can be utilized as wash cloths by hem ming pieces of the desired size, or crocheting a border of yarn around the edge. They can also be used as mop or floor cloths. Always save one worn garment to patch others with when they begin to wear out.
