GIVE A COFFEE PARTY
CHANGE FROM THE "TEA" THAT
is so POPULAR.
Hostess Can Provide Delightful Enter
tainment at Comparatively Small
Cost in a Fashion That Is
Somewhat Unusual.

Why don't you give coffee? Have
you ever heard of one? 1t is like a
tea, excepting that coffee instead Of
tea is the chosen beverage, and in
stead of sandwiches and cakes of the
usual sort all the food seems to have
come straight from a German coffee
shop.
This rather unusual form of enter
tainment is given in the morning.
Cards are sent out with the words
"Coffee," and From IL to 1" written
on them. Or, if the Coffee" is to be
very small, the invitations may be
given by telephone. For one of the
| charms of the Coffee" is that it is
| informal
In the dining-room the table is
| spread with a lace or embroidered
luncheon cloth-something rather elab-
crate can be used-and in the center,
instead of flowers, is big silver tray
heaped with fruits made of marzlpan.
Half a dozen German cakes are placed
on the table. There are small German
almond cakes on plate covered with
a lace dolly. There is a cake board on
which is big coffee ring, with wide
bladed silver knife beside it. There is
a cheese cake cut into narrow, wedge
shaped pieces. And there are other
German sweets of the sort that can be
| bought at a first-class German delica-
lessen or bakery or made at home &C
cording to recipes in a German cook
cry book.
At each end of the table is an urn
or a percolating coffee pot over an al
cohol fame, for coffee is the only bev-
erage served. 1t is served in large
eups, breakfast size, and with it are
passed cream and sugar.
German Douehnuts.-Here is. a reci-
pc for one German delicacy that may
be served with the coffee. Scald pint
of milk, and while it is scalding hot
pour over it a pint of flour. Beat until
smooth and then add half teaspoon
full of salt, and cool Add the beaten
yolks of four eggs, a tablespoonful or
melted butter, a half cupful of sugar,
a cupful of flour, two teasponfuls OF
baking powder, a teaspoonful of al
mond or other flavoring and the beat
en- whites of four eggs. Add more
flour if necessary to make soft
dough. Roll out and cut and fry gold
brown Drain on thick paper and roll
in sugar.
German Apple Cake.-For German
apple cake, sift a pint of flour with one
and half teaspoonfuls of baking pow
| der and half a teaspoonful of salt.
Add two tablespoonful of butter, rub
bling it in thoroughly and then add
| beaten egg and milk enough to make
a thick batter. Spread the batter in
a buttered tin to the thickness of an
inch. Over the top spread quarters
or eighths of peeled and cored apples
and sprinkle with sugar and CHINA
! mon Bake in hot oven.
