propriate services differ Breakfast

cups that come in Il set of dishes
ana the spoons are the ordinary tea
spoon size. The coffee pot, whether
a percolator or a presentabie granite
pot or silver service coffee pot, is
placed beside the mistress who
serves the family, putting in the
cream and sugar to suit Individual
preference and pouring the coffee
over them. After dinner or after
luncheon. coffee may be served either
in the dining room after the dessert

fee, which is always very strong, the

spoons are used. and either silver or
