Should Be Comfortable and Attractive,
Yet Adapted 70 Use.
Every kitchen should boast at least
one comfortable chair, for the compe-
tent cook can learn to perform many
Of her duties sitting as well a. stand
ing.
For greater efficiency and comfort
the kitchen table Is also Of Importance
for not only should It be strong and
steady, but It should also be Of the
proper height for baking and kneading
bread. It should have q deep drawer
to hold agate and wooden spoons, forks
and knives, cookie mods, etc.
Over the table either q convenient
cabinet or a simple board may be nail
ed into place, upon which can be hung
egg heaters, bread knives. measuring
spoons-indeed, all those small things
which WIN save a busy woman count
less steps during the days work.

Smart Stationery.

Pure white Is the most elegant style
Of stationery, especially for an elderly
woman. For the debutante a tinted
paDer is in very good taste. This comes
in pale salmon, oyster blue and dres-
den Well in from the edge OF the
sheet and envelope runs a fine hair line
In a darker shade to harmonic with
the lighter tint For instance, the
salmon paper has a duh rose line and
the oyster blue a cadet blue hair line
Formerly a monogram was engraved
In a corresponding shade In the corner
OF the sheet. but fashion no longer de-
crees this.
The correspondence paper for an old
er woman Is more than ever elaborate
this year. One style in pale French
gray, with a heavy monogram In silver
and black. Is decidedly distinctive.
Likewise a natural colOred oak with a
duh brown and gold monogram. or
perhaps the shaded tints Of lavender
and violet, with two tone silver mon
ogram, are IN good taste for q woman
who wishes something that win truly
bespeak her personality.

advantage In favor Of selVages IL that

In place Of sewing the rags In the
usual fashion lay the end Of one strip

would therefore give them away upon
