SERVING THE AFTERNOON TEA
Dainty Appointments Have Much to
Do With its Success-Tasty
Cakes for Guests.

If a table or a tea cart is not kept
in evidence it is the correct thing to
have the appointments brought in on
a spacious tray, as a cramped appear
ance, piled-up cups, etc., is unattract-
i've. If the teacups are unusual or
possibly have histories or have been
picked up in travels, so much the
more charming will be the tea table.
Some like tea one way, some an
other, and if a hostess wishes to be
remembered with gratitude let her
have cream, lemon and rum ready to
serve, so that she may suit all tastes.
Some people are satisfied with thin
bread and butter, OIL just plain crack
ers as a tea accompaniment, but ii
always seems a trifie monotonous and
Incompatible to have nothing else,
Some hostesses prefer to serve the
tiny bread-and-butter sandwich along
with rich fruit cake and a taste OF
candied ginger for the second cup,
But the various kinds of dainty and
appetizing sandwiches and little
cakes to serve with tea are beyond
description.

HINTS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
Well Always to Keep Watchful Eye
on THE Grocer and Butcher
Splendid Green Salad.

Don't allow the grocer to weigh
your butter, lard, ETC., in a wooden
dish. These dishes weigh from one
to three ounces, according to their
size, and you are therefore paying
for that much wood at the price OF
butter.
Don't let the butcher weigh your
meat and then trim it and charge
you for the trimmings that you have
paid'for. The fat can be rendered in
to lard and the bones used in soup.
The butcher knows that they have a
value for when you do not take them
he ~resells them for six or seven
cents a pound. Do not be afraid to
ask for what is your due and to de-
mand honesty and full measure.
A green salad served with cheese,
nuts or eggs, and a French dressing
with whole wheat sandwiches, can be
made the main course for luncheon.
A cheese souffle served with spinach
makes meat unnecessary. BeetS
stuffed with creamed mushrooms and
nuts are delightful, and a ring of
mashed potatoes filled with creamed
carrots and peas will please the most
fastidious appetite. A canape, bis
que or PURGE made of fresh vegeta-
bles, or a cocktail made of mixed
fruits, is a good beginning to either
luncheon or dinner. Desserts should
be fresh fruits, fruit ices or gelatin
dishes, with sponge cake or other
plain uniced cake.
