the city who didn’t know peas when
he saw them and thought we were
growing up to be flowers. He didn’t
know weeds from flowers and had to
be shown. He did knowr that those
were ferns in the beautiful fernery.
But we were told he knew about these
because he had heard much about them
beforehand. His wife had planted
those ferns and had made that fernery
all herself when she was a little girl,
and she had told him about the ferns
and how they had grown and of the
queer shaped stones she had in her
fernery and of the stones with strange
markings and fans In them.
“He had to be shown the difference
between a spade and a trowel and a
rake, and just what one did with each.
Poor dear, he didn’t know much about
the country, but he liked It and he
watered the flowers and he did a great
deal of good, we were told.
“He was willing to learn, too. That
was something. Well, we’re called the
Telephone Peas.”

String Beans said, “and it won’t be

The question of colors in clothes is
always a most important one, but one
that Is hard to write about, observes
a correspondent In the Buffalo Ex-
press, for it is practically Impossible
to describe a color so that every one
who reads about It will see it as It is.
But pretty nearly every one knows the
characteristic colors of Chinese em-
broidery—there is a dark shade of
blue and a light opaque shade, a green
that is almost a jade, much old rose,
light lemon yellow and a darker citron
color. Often In embroidery represent-
ing flowers, however, a great range of
shades is used, producing an effect
that is almost realistic. But it is the
shades used In the more conventional
designs that are spoken of as Chinese.
And in the parlance of clothes now-
adays one hears much of Chinese blue,
Chinese green, Chinese rose, etc. It Is
these shades that are used in some
of the embroidery produced In France.
Quite different are the Egyptian col-
ors—rather stoney, cold-looking shades
with considerable brick red always
predominating.
In some of the newest evening
gowns you see white floss embroidery
on white silk background and this,
though it may not have been borrowed
from China, is not infrequently seen
among the finest of Chinese em-
broideries. White is Interestingly com-
bined with colors in the embroidery
of some of the new frocks. In three
charming frocks recently exhibited I
saw white embroidery on brown, a
bright green on a light yellow and
delft blue on white. It is not unusual
to see in the new blouses the use of
opaque white beads embroidered on
blouses of the light pastel shades.
Gray seems to be coming in _ for
much popularity. Navy blue with a
light tracery of gray' embroidery al-
ways looks distinctive. There is' a
nfew shade called in France tourterelle
meaning turtle dove, that is much ad-
mired.

“Hello. Telephone Peas. Seems to |

do believe it was your very name that
hurried me.
“I heard you say it and I acted like
people do when they hear the tele- j

that they’ve left the salad on their ;

“Well,” said the Telephone Peas,
“we feel more up to date than ever

phones. We don’t know that there Is
any special reason for our name, but
we have grown to like It mighty well.

SWEET SANDWICHES TO TAKE
THE PLACE OF CAKE.
A sweet sandwich is a dainty which
may be made in an emergency when
small cakes are
not at hand, and
they are always
appropriate to
serve with lemon-
ade, tea, cocoa or
coffee..
Cinnamon Samf-
w 1 c h e sT — Use
white or Boston brown bread, unbut-
tered. Mix three tablespoonfuls of
granulated sugar with one teaspoonfu)
of cinnamon. Spread a slice with the-
cinnamon and sugar mixture and cover
with a slice well buttered with cream
butter. These go well with cocoa.
Date and Orange Sandwiches.—
Blend one-half cupful of finely-chop-
ped dates with two tablespoonfuls ot
orange juice; use on buttered whole-
wheat bread. These are nice with-
lemonade.
Coconut Sandwiches. — Take one
cupful of freshly grated coconut, one-
quarter cupful of walnuts, chopped,
one teaspoonful rosewater, one table-
spoonful of powdered sugar; mix well;
add three tablespoonfuls of thick
cream and spread on buttered white
bread.

With the use of quantities of ri&v
and lace In dresses the vogue for
floating veils does not come as a. sur-
prise. This fashion Is entirely in
keeping with the very feminine touches
that the sheer materials give to dress.
Hats of the plainest and most se-
vere type have no trimming other than
a veil. The craze of the moment Is
the brown veil as a garniture for the
black hat. The very coarse, highly

medallion fitting over the crown of
the hat and an embroidered border on
four sides of the veil. Sometimes the
veil is neatly tied In place and the
border forms a tiny shadowy edge for
the turban. Again, it Is allowed to
hang in streaming corners. When the
shape is of more individuality and
height a tobacco-brown ribbon in satin
cire is sometimes used in addition to
the tobacco-brown embroidered veil.
Cool and delightfully summery-look-

Novel Veils.
The fancy mesh veil flashed off with
an ostrich feuther collar offers a most
flattering style for one with a slen-
der throat.
For Juveniles.
Plain color materials are the sea-
son’s favorites for juveniles, but some
very charming English prints and cal-
icoes are to be found. These are usu-
ally trimmed simply In edgings and
band of white organdie sometimes in
narrow lace edgings. One smart cal-
ico dress, recently seen, for a girl of
ten or twelve years, showed a slightly
longer than normal waistline, and a
plain skirt attached by belt of self-
fabric, so there was no decided break
in the line from neck to hem. The
only trimming was a four-inch wide
plaited frill of white organdie as a
collar, and a similar finish for the el-
bow sleeves.

Round Garters Again.
One sees round garters in the lin-
gerie departments again. They’ve al-
ways been there more or less, to be
sure, but pushed into the obscurity of
the background, like a poor relation.
Now they are being brought out and
rather featured. Why? Probably in
anticipation thut the corsetless ~raze
reported from Paris will reach here,

However, most women rarely wear a
cor jet with negligee things, when
lounging round “chez moi." So they
always like to keep a smart pair or

chest is prepared
as-follows: Take
one cupful of lard
and one-half cup-
ful (scant) of
boiling, water, add
one teaspoonful
of salt and stir
until the lard Is
dissolved, then add three cupfuls of
sifted flour, mix well and set away to
become cool. This makes the crust
for three covered pies and the pastry
Is delicate and tender.
Cherry Sponge.—Take two cupfuls-
of canned cherries, two eggs, three-
fourths of a cupful of sugar, one-
fourth of a cupful of hot water, three-
fourths of a cupful of flour, one ~ea-
spoonful of lemon juice, two teaspoon-
fuls of baking powder and one-fourth
of a teaspoonful of salt. Beat the
yolks of the eggs until thick and lemon-
colored:. Add half the sugar gradually
and beat until smooth. Add the flour
mixed and sifted with the baking pow-
der and salt. Add the whites of the
eggs beaten stiff and dry. In the bot-
tom of a buttered baking dish put the
cherries. Pour the batter over and
bake in a moderate oven forty min-
utes. If the cherries are tart sprinkle
them with sugar before covering them
with the batter. The sauce from the
fruit will be all that Is necessa 17 to
serve with the pudding.
Scalloped Noodles.—This is a dlsb
which offers a variety of combina-
tions. Prepare the noodles—those
made at home are much better than
the carton variety. Take veal and
chicken broth with gravy and small
pieces of the meat, make layer of the
noodles, meat and gravy and finish the
top with crumbs. Bake in a hot oven
long enough to cook the noodles. Serve
hot as a luncheon dish. This is called
warmein In Chinese restaurants.
Cherry Cake.—Cream together three
tablespoonfuls of shortening and ene
cupful of sugar; add one egg well
beaten and two-thirds of a cupful of
milk with two cupfuls of flour alter-
nately, sifting two teaspoonfuls of bak-
ing powder and a half teaspoonful of
salt Mix well and cover the fop of
the cake with a quart of pitted cher-
ries ; sprinkle with cinnamon and hake.
Half the sugar may be used in the
cake, the rest reserved and ml
the cherries.
