DIE Englishwoman takes such
comfort from her afternoon cup
OF tea; such solace, such recu-
- peration, such rest for worried
or weary nerves, that it does seem a
pity more OF her American sisters do
not follow her good example. In
America, afternoon tea is a pleasant
relaxatlon-if one has time for 1t; in
England, it is custom as unalterable
as the laws of the Medes and Per-
sians-or the recurrence of the din
ner hour.
A good many women, having ex-
perienced the delight and comfort Of
English afternoon tea, have made
valiant efforts to establish the custom
in their own homes over here; but
sooner or later. after the novelty woro
off, something more important was
sure TO interfere with the pleasant lit
tie rite. The serving of tea at five
o'clock became spasmodic, dependent
on other engagements and finally was
discontinued altogether. The trouble
Is, that the afternoon tea custom, over
mere Ill aIUtTANd. IL VI ltSS VI u
pose and its artificiality soon makes
an end Of it. no matter how good are
intentions at the start.
In the restaurants, however, II
nourishes apace. Tea hour is the
most crowded hour OF the day and
would be the most prosperous hour
for mine host Of the hostelry except
that. at Its best, the afternoon snack
cannot be made to cost any more than
about so much. Even as II Is, one
pays n rather exorbitant sum--at q
fashionable tea place-for the cup that
cheers and an accompanying muffln.
American women are not tea enthusi-
asts-not by any means. II they do
not prefer hot chocolate with halo
Of whipped cream they are likely to
enthuse over coffee, also crowned with
whipped cream and served with little
sweet cakes as a late afternoon pick

The Tennis Maid Clings to Washable
White,

Devotees of tennis will have none OF
the gay colored sport apparel that ap-
peals to adherents of golf; perhaps
because white. cool and fresh from the
laundress is the only possible choice
for a blazing tennis court on hot
day. Golf is a serene and unwilling
pastime. Between strokes, one cools
off while strolling over the green: but
tennis means a flushed and perspiring
face, disarrayed hair and a general
blowsiness of appearance which do
not accord with rose pink and laven-
der blouses and burnt orange sport
coats. The tennis maid wears a cool,
crisp skirt of white linen, loose shirt
Of washable silk, neat tennis shoes OF
white canvas and an excellent coat
of green velour cloth with white but
tons and wide white collar OF broA
cloth. Her shady hat OF white chip
draped with soft silk mousseline may
be retained during the game II the
sun prove very hot.
The Correct Cross Saddle Riding Suit.
The riding girl loves spring best OF
all-such a Joy 1t is to canter out in
the open when the new sea son begins;
to feel the soft spring breeze against
ones face and to watch the green
things shooting up in promise of what
is to be. Most women who ride af-
feet the cross saddle habit which
makes horseback riding so much more
comfortable and so much safer; and
since almost everybody rides in
breeches nowadays, they cause no ex-
citement. They have been accepted
as the proper and desirable type of rid
ing attire. One correct riding suit
consisted OF a coat made of black
cheviot bound with braid and the rid-~
ing breeches OF checked worsted.

sash is knotted closely around the
normal waistline instead OF rather low
IN the Oriental manner. This is so
that the nold coat may fare below the
waist with the fare of the skirt and
give the snug. close effect above the
waist that is desirable just now. To
match the rose pink and block check
