DESIGNS IN CHAFING DISHES.
Vary Attractive Are 6ome of the Sett
Seen In City Stores.
The newest chafing dishes are fur
nished with tray to match and a
screen that curves three-quarters of
the way around the flame. Some of
them are of cut glass, when the set Is
of gold or sllvei; others are of or
dinary plate glass, when the dish is
nickel, copper or brass. The screens
protect the. lamp from vagrant
draughts, and they hasten the cooking
of the dish so much that the hungry
guests do not become impa;ient.
Most attractive sets are shown this
year made of brass and trimmed, as
it were, with a plaited band of cupper.
The colors of the two metals combine
well, and the set is handsomer than
those made of plain brass, which li
teally too yellow for the purpose.
Some nickel fets are bound in cop
1 er, too. and they are so durable that
it is quite worth while to invest In
oae.
A few screens for brass chafin,'
bblies ure made entirely of the same
metal, beaten as the Cairo tingcr bowls
:;e; and, while they are very band
'line, they rather tend to exclude the
v imtany from the rites of "rabbit''
making.

WHITE
LUNCHEON OR SUPPER DISH.
Jellied Vegetables a Pleasing Accom
paniment to Meat.
Jellied vegetables are particularly
suitable for a luncheon or supper
dish to be served as an accoiopuTii
uient to almost any kind of cold slioej
meat. Remove the jelly to a sarvlnj
dish and surround with ibo slietrs- ti
n:ea overlapping one a nut her; llivi
garnish with celery tips. Cold meat
needs to be very thinly sliced to be at
its best, therefore do see to it that tho
closet can boast of sharp knives, for
without them the work cannot be per
fectly done. Soak one tablegpoonfu!
of granulated gelailne in om-fourth
of a cupful of cold water and dissolve
in one cupful of boiling water; the-i
add one-fourth of a cupful each cf
sugar and vinegar, two tablespoonfuis
of lemon juice and one teaspoouful of
salt. Strain, cool and when beginning
to stiffen add one cupful of celery cut
in small pieces, one-half cupful of
finely-shredded cabbage and one and
one-half canned pimentoes, cut in
small pieces. Turn into a mold and
chill thoroughly. Woman's Home

FOR USE IN GARNISHING.
Plants for Which Room Should Be
Found in the Garden.
Celery tops and parsley are not the
only pleasing garnishing plants, al
though others are not common. Water
cress may be grown In th garden
without running water, and pepper
.mass, chervil and burnet are graceful
and attractive. One row in the gar
den may profitably be mad' up of
garuishins; and flavoring plants.
Caraway and coriander seeds are
used In cales and cookies; dill witli
salt as a pickle flavoring. Ail are
easy to grow from seeds sown in
spring, the crop being harvested the
same or the following year.
The plants should be thinned to six
to ten Inches apart in the row. Mus
tard savory and sweet marjoram are
grown from seed The latter needs
shading while plants are small.
Thyme, sage, spearmint.' tarragon
and lavender ate Invaluable In the
kitchen fcardn. They are perennials
and. with the exception of tarragon,
all may be grown from geed.i, but bet
ter by dividing old plants or by cut
tings. For drying, leaes should he cut be

Embroidering Initials on Linen.
Kvery one who embroiders know.,
that it is absolutely impossible to mi-broile;-
initials without placing the
RitUle to b.1 embroidered on the em
broidery rU?s. When the Initial or
nio:i:j;.'riii 't In 'he corner of a nap
kin, .tabl4)t!i. nr lunch cloth it is
difficult to stro.cli the narrow margin
over the rings and make It snug and
tight enough.
Where two pieces are to be em
broidered bring the pieces end to end
and whip them over and over, and
then place them In the embroidery
rings. The article can be held in a
firm position and the work can be
done more easily and quickly. When
four, corners, such as four napkins,
are to be embroidered bring the fiuir
corners to a point and stitch the sides
firmly." There will then be no diffi
culty in keeping the material on tho
rings. "

Fruit Cups.
Make a rich piecrust, roll out thin,
then cut out with scalloped cookie
