luncheon and offer infinite variety for
the afternoon tea table.
One OF the easiest and set most un-
usual tricks to play with the ordinary
cracker Is to serve It In crisp. puffy
form. which does not suggest its
humble origin. For this purpose take
Boston crackers, which split readily In
halves.
FIJI a shallow basin with ice water
and let the cracker halves lie In the
cold bath for four or FIVE minutes.
They will then be 30 water soaked that
they must be handled carefully to
avoid breaking. They are best re-

add finely chopped nuts. Caraway
seeds or old-fashioned fennel seeds are
also among good additions to these
prepared crackers and should be
sprinkled on after removal from the
oven.
Especially appropriate to serve with
salads are crackers combined with
cheese and any tart fruit jam or jelly.
BY using a piping tube. such as is en-
ployed in the fanciful Arrangements Of

can be easily gained.
A rosette Of moistened cream cheese

cheese piped around. leaving the inner
surface OF the cracker uncovered. This

1t 10 also q favorite plan to mix the
cheese with bar le due or other fruit

Graham crackers and plain ginger

form OF treatment and make appetizing
accomplishments for afternoon tea or

TO wait a few weeks before making
hcr choice, there have been attractive
models on view ever since the first
OF August. and the number OF these
models has increased day by day.
Black velvet. black satin, white sat
In. or black and white satin are the
materials most often used for the
fashioning OF the first fall millinery
These models are. OF course. built
and are trimmed with flowers or
feathers.
Flowers and feathers also trim the
hats shown as advance fall models.
The hats In the fall are prone to
smallness-comfortable, practical 1T

as usual, goodly supply OF small
hats is in evidence: but from the
first, there have been shown, side by

number OF large hats and m, diurn.

II is predicted that the larger hat will
not lose its prestige.

made OF velvet. though very fire.

from the edge OF the bllm, and the
border is OF maline or lace
