hind him is too busy quilting for her own
dainty boudoir, or planning new decora-
tions for the summer porch, alas, to en-
snare new beau lover. Such Is life
Much has been said about the gossip

but, IL the fair ones need encouragement

report has II that nothing Is more con-

authority on patches and patching, IF one
is to rely upon the comments of the
older women who come In to buy the
articles. The old-fashioned patchwork
was tedious affair, long, patient put
ting together of any kind Of pieces, just
because they happened to be pieces, with
no regard for the color scheme at all.
Now modern art needlework is no mis-
nomer, and you couldn't sell the old
fashioned patchwork to any one. The

simply sewed on the places indicated by

and all the worker has to supply is the

This compact and very efficient ar
is due to the fact that few

long without getting decided results. They
want to see the work grow. Now, when
you get big bedspread. for instance, and
you have a chart before you showing how
the thing looks when made, 1t is an easy

Will fair percentage of "everybodies"
known to the Corner contribute few
scraps to the quilt the dear old lady would
finish? And when the mountain of love
tokens threatens to bury her, she will let
us know? Don't send the parcels to n

I press home your request for short
hand manual upon the consideration of
the great body of stenographers who are
as strong right hand in our mission

ticed assduously and unweariedly, and
the labor was severe, but she gained her

Dear Deborah RuSh--Can you tell me
when the dish which l have heard spoken
of as hors d'oeuvre is served at a dinner?
And could you name some simple ones?
/ will be greatly obliged, A. G, p.
The hors d'oeuvre is served first of all
at a dinner or luncheon. 1t is already on
the plate as the guests sit down. The hors
doeuvre is intended as a sort of appe-
tizer for the rest of the meal. There are
very many kinds of these appetizers; del
icate piece of toast is usually the founda-
ton. This is cut in circle, diamond or
little squares One delicious recipe is TO
pound chicken livers and olives into a
paste and spread It over the toast; or
another is made with hard boiled egg
grated and spread on the toast and in
the centre is placed an anchovy or sar-
dine. These are often garnished with
slice or SO of stuffed olive, Either of
these are very easy TO prepare. A small
fork Is used for the hors doeuvre in fact.
one is made now at the jewelers. which
is much on the order of a salad fork with
a wide side prong to cut into the toast.

Room Beautiful

Have you crystal vase in your bou-

the dernier cri for dressing table and
boudoir ornaments, and fascinating vases
cream jars lamps, flower stands, and low
bowls of 1t are selling in the shops. The
favorite flower may be tucked in a tall
crystal holder, the bunch of violets from
the corsaGe is sunk in a crystal receptacle
The glass itself is cloudy white, like
alabaster engraved in some cases, with
exquisite motifs.
Another very new arrival IN the line of
household decoration is the bellows of
carved Italian workmanship. These are
copied from very expensive Florentine
antique, and may be had in several sizes
and decoration, including the famous Lion
of st. Mark.

have observed have shown their courtesy

fortunately true, that men do remain

stand and hang on TO strap. You would

The napkin should be unfolded and

T7IIE next thing to discuss about tea
L or garden party is the way in which
the debutante should dress and who
should compose the receiving party. In
the case of the debutante's having an
older sister. it is always good form for
her to stand beside her younger sister to
receive the guests The hostess stands
first in the line. then the debutante, next
the older sister. If there are several
sisters. II is only necessary for one to be
in the receiving line the others should
mingle with the guests just as the other
persons who are asked to receive with the
deb are expected to do. 1t Is customary
for the older women who are invited by
the hostess to receive, to take turns dur
ing the afternoon in presiding over the
tea table. The younger friends of the
debutante who are asked to receive
should see that the various guests have
what they desire in the way of refresh
ments. In recent years IL has become
customary to wear regulation evening
frocks at afternoon teas, and the debu-
tante usually wears gown Of white SILK,
satin or some filmy material.
