Te-Ken-Fa Tea Garden A Popular Spot. The Te-Ken-Fa Tea Garden daily grows in popularity, and Lakeland people feel they owe the fair promot- ers a debi of gratitude for providing such a delighttul place to while away The Tea Garden, which is amid the lovely surround- an hour, 1 located ings of the home of Mrs, S, M. Ste- pacns, is presided over by that charming lady and Mrs, Katherine who each afterncon from a delicious menu of ten to de- Madden, |3 to 6 serve salads, sandwiches and lizhited patrons, The origin of the *nique name, “Te-Ken-Fa,” makes the tea garden all the more interesting and roman- tic. Mrs. Stephens comes from Ten- nessee, Mrs, Madden from Kentucky and they are both in Florida, and, in naming their tea garden they took the first letters of each state, which is quite a clever idea, indeed. As the ladies and their escomts wend their way toward the “Sign of the Green Tea Pot"” they pleasant- ly anticipate the hour to be spent beneath the rose embowered pergola, where, with the scent of the orange blossoms, beds of fragrant violets and other pleasing surroundings, they would while the time away en- joying a cup of tea and other dain- ties. L] ® * Strange Beds. Habit conceals all sorts of absurd- ities. It makes one ache to see an illustration of a Japanese sleeping block, hollowed out just enough to permit the neck being adjusted thereto, The Germans' notion of night repose does not come much near our ideas of comfort. There are many ill made and unsatisfac- tory beds (from the American point of view) to be found in the kaiser's dominions. German beds, almost without ex- ception are single—so much so, in- deed, that the occupant, if he at- deviate an inch or two finds himself The sheets, tempts to from his sprawling on the floor. bed blankets, ote., are made just to position Ufit the beds, and are never wide enough to tuck in. They are col- dom more than an inch or two wid- er than the mattress ,and it requires | the skill and experience of an acro- bat, especally in the case of a for- ecigner, to keep the fenly balanced over one. Many of the German hotels use the French pillow, which is about half the size of the mattress and stuffed out so hard and plump that benefit the tired it is to have it bedclothes eve ahout ‘the only traveler gets from serve as a rest for his back while [he sleeps in a =itting pogition.

Sport of the Antipodes. A favorite sport in New Zealand, a8 also in Australia and Tasmania, is competition in wood chopping and sawing; and in these contests, which attract a great deal of interest, the champlonships are always won through the use of American tools. In fact the expert woodsman working for & would never think of using any. other kind of tools. 8 TELEPHONE NUMBERS—SOCIETY EDITOR. g 4 | | the needs of older women, are shown here. Doth models are in black and white and both fit tomfortably to the head. In Fig. 1 the shape is made of a pliable straw braid very light and soft, in & deep rich black, The trim- ming consists of a wide, double bow of satin messaline ribbon across the .crown and even rows of white sou- tache brald stretched to the flaring brim at the front. This is a brilliant and becoming hat for the matron who prefers black and white to colors. A striped silk furnishes the crown and upper brim covering in Fig. 2.

Fig. 3 pictures a draped turban made of velvet and straw. The shape gets well down on the head and shows an upward curve in the brim-edge at the back and left side. It is very soft and comfortable and developed in a varlety of colors. The brald employed is in what s known as nacre colors, that is resembling the iridescence of the inner surface of a shell, There is & great variety in the shape and styles designed especlally for older women. They have learned that brilliance and color are for them and no longer wear the tame and characterless hats to which they doomed themselves too long. JULIA BOTTOMLEY.

This year the tunic is in many in- stances the most important part of the costume.

Persons who are furnishing houses or rooms in colonial style will be glad to know that glass knobs of rosette shape, such as were used long ago, are again being made for draping back curtalns. Needlework Note. Damask centerpleces are quite the style nowadays. Many clever needle- women outline the flowers or design of the damask with a dainty stitch so as to form a border around the cir- cular plece, and with an edging of heavy lace this makes as effective a Damask, however, Is by no means cheap, but if one can make a num- ber of guch picees from old linen with only the trifling expense of the lace one can have one of these center- pizees, Little Fancy Coats. While for the present there are practically only two types of the mixed toilet, that in which a plain ma- terlal i8 scen in combination with a striped or checked stuff, and that which weds a little coat of velvet to a skirt of cloth, the advancing season will see many changes rung upon this theme. New Bags for Old. We all have one or two rather shabby leather bags. Cover these with velvet, buy some heavy gilk cord for a handle, long or short, as you prefer, and yon hove a styllsh and pretty bag. Either paste or gew the velvet on.

Parisians have ctarted the rage for a monogramed shoe buckle, already American dealers have become inter- ested. The Paris women are now or- dering shoe buckles with their Inf- tials or monograms done in rhine- stones or real gems. QGood Thing to Remember. Five fingers of scorn do not equal one helping hand.
