That ever.argued question
when shall we use our fingers
and when our forks?-is, except
I'm a very few cases, answered by
the rule that foods that are moist
or sticky are eaten with fork
or spoon, or knife and fork,
and foods that are dry are eaten
in the fingers. And a very sensi.
BILE distinction 1t Is.
French fried potatoes. Saratoga
chips when served with the meat
course, souffle potatoes, potato
straws should be eaten with the
fork. No matter how perfectly
they are cooked, they are a little
greasy, and, IL eaten in the fin
gers, will leave an unpleasant
sickness on the finger tips.
Artichokes are eaten in the
fingers. One leaf at a time is
peeled off, the tip nearest the
stalk dipped in the melted butter
or sauce. the edible portion at the
end of the leaf scraped off be-
tween the teeth. and the re-
mainder laid on the plate. The
heart of the artichoke is eaten
with a fork.
Asparagus should be eaten with
a fork.
Avocado alligator pearl is usu-
ally served cut in half, like a
cantaloupe, and a salad dressing
is served with it. After the
dressing is added the avocado is
eaten with spoon, as one eats
a cantaloupe.
Food Cocktails: The oysters In
an oyster cocktail and the shrimp
in shrimp cocktail are eaten
with an oyster fork. A fruit
cocktail is eaten with a spoon.
Olives are eaten in the fingers.
The olive is "nibhled" as it is held
in the fingers. that is, it is not
put into the mouth and the pit
taken from the mouth after the
olive has been eaten. Many
hostcsses try to get around the
difficulty of eating elves by serv-
ing stuffed olives, but so many
people dislike pimentos that it is
wiser to serve green or ripe
olives. or both.

When Manners AreC Correct
BY Mrs. Cornelius Beeckman-

DEAR MRS. BRECkMAN;
/. When there is a receiving
line, should one give ones name
10 the first person in line where
there is no one there to make
the introduction?
2. Should one shake hands with
: those in line or merely say How
do you do?
3. At a tea how many cards
are left? If there are honor
guests, how many cards should
be left?
4. When a toast is given,
should the one, or ones, in whose
honor the toast is given, remain
seated? Do they leave their
glasses untouched?
5. When giving tea is there
any particular arrangement for
the tea table? For the spoons and
SO forth? E. C.
Yes, and take extra care to
pronounce your name most dis
tinctly. Remember that this is
a very difficult position for a
person. this first one in the re-
ceiving line, for she or he must
near many many names and must
pas them on correctly.
2. Usually one shakes hands
as well as saying How do you
do"

each woman whose name appears

5. Usually at a tea two kinds of
drinks are offered, and one kind,
with the necessary q accompani-

table. For instance, on one end
there is always tea, with the
cream, lemon, sugar, and so forth.
At the other end of the table may,
in the cooler months, be chocolate,
with the whipped cream, sugar

In the warmer months, a cold
