an increased vogue for ,colored

bought which add greatly to the
. color scheme OF serving Summer
meals. Dear old Sedji ware still
holds its own with its beautiful
translucent color and can be OBJ
tanned in open stock" at many
stores.
The woman with small means
does not buy large sets OF china,
but only those pieces with which
she can serve the greatest variety
of meals. For example, instead of
buying the large dinner plate, the
breakfast plate and other sizes, she
chooses the large salad plate,
which can he used for supper,

dinner. A bowl which will do FOR
salad will also do for serving
baked dishes by the simple ex
pedient of cooking the food In a
glass baking dish OF the right size
and then using the salad bowl as q
serving dish.
Even men notice the gay note
supplied by different kinds Of
china and cloths, and in some way
it makes the meal time less pro-
sale.
Also, do not forget the white
paper table cloths and paper nap
kins which so often are sufficient
for simple meals, for the house
wife's lunch when alone, for chill
dren, and always in the fruit sea-
son. A visit to large paper nov
city shop is worth while, because
these goods are much improved in
quality OF late, so that attractive
napkins, dishes and cloths NAV be
bought at small cost.
