That ICED tea should he made hot

trick that not every woman versCd in

is no more comparison between the

than between burgundy kept at blood

A very important feature in serving
afternoon tea is the linen. The tea
cloth and napkin should always match.
While usually a soft ungla2cd linen

the Chinese linens embroidered in

Large tomatoes halved, the seeds and
soft pulp removed and shell filled with
corn, are easily prepared by pacing
under a gas broiler until the corn
has a light brown tinge and has ac-
quired the flavor OF roasted corn.
The corn should have been previously
cooked for about five minutes with
butter and ~seasonings. So arranged
the tomato halves with corn filling
can be covered with buttered crumbs
and baked in the same manne as are
whole tomatoes. Baked tomatoes with
corn filing still continue on the list
Of popular summer vegetable dishes,
and when served as n palt Of n hearty
dinner should be chosen in small SIZE
and served on little rounds Of sauteed
bread. For a luncheon dish or a
separate entree choose large tomatoes
and have n slice of bacon laid across
the top of each after the corn filling
and crumbs are in place, In baking
the fat from the bacon trickles down
through the corr filing and gives a
delicious flavor. This Is a hearty
dish and Is suitable to serve as a
meat substitute. Additional corn Is
often used as a sauce around the
tomato.

CINCE we Americans have adopted
-, the h%ospitable custom Of tea
~ drinking from our English cous-
ms and made It a part OF our
own domestic routine. a host Of pretty
tea accessories have sprung up in the
shops for the convenience OF the hos
tess and the more adequate enjoyment
of the tea time guest. Some of these
novelties make their appeal by reason
Of their ~fanciful decorations rather
than their appropriateness. But the
tea table equipment should be selected
first from the standpoint of practi-
cal!ty and secondly for It's artistic fea-
lures.
The custom of tea drinking is SO es-
sentially a domestic one that the as
pect OF hostess and guest is wholly
lost for il is now merged into the
daily life of the household. 1t is quite
as much an institution as breakfast or
supper or any other regular meal and
il Is no sense considered n function as
Is sometimes the case here in America.
In the English home 4 o'clock is the
signal for the maid, or a member Of the
household where maids are not kept, to
appear armed with the tea tray filled
with all the essentials for this hos
pitable repast. 1t Is n welcome break
in the work or pastimc OF the family
and the JOY and relaxation afforded by
the cup that cheers Is known only to
those to whom 1t Is n daily domestic
observance. More than any other
meal 1t is an intimate gathering OF
choice spirits. for the informally en-
genders condolences and the relaxa-
ton from efforts puts me In IA frame

freshing beverage and the human

for over there 1t Is the custom that
counts for most, not the show OF
strange novelties brought In as an
accompaniment, so that for those to
whom tea drinking IL a rite the sim
pier the service the better.
