Those who enjoy writing summer votes out of doors will delight in the small pads of pale tinted note paper designed for this purpuse. They are to be had in two sizes. The paper is smooth and of good quality, the hard back and cover of the pad exactly matching the tint of the paper. A pens cil is attached to the side of each pad, which also matches it and has a top of glass in the same color. Such pads make pretty bon voyage gifts, although they are priced at only 34 and 39 cents each. The Round Table. For small luncheon parties the round table is again becoming popular. This table is kept very highly polished, and a very elaborate round tablecloth in | Ane lace and linen, buttonholed all | around in deep scallops, shows the {edge of the table and the polished | woodwork through the lace. Very lt 'tle of the linen is seen, and in some Rf thread lace. with a plece of flannel, rupping Yt well and polishing with a lightly oiled linen rag. Bone handles should be sandpapered and polished and pearl handles clean- ed by rubbing with a soft cloth dipped {in fine 'malt. Polish with a chamois Reserve knives cin either be oiled and wrapped in brown paper before being put away or dusted with finely powdered quicklime and wrapped in flannel. This latter is the better plan, a8 there would be nb suspicion of an oily taste if the knives were suddenly needed. Special knives should always be kept for onions, bread and for hot fat. The two latter wjll make the sharpest knife @ull in a very short time. "SUMMER PILLOWS.
