THE B EE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, AUGUST 19, 1 916. Good Things for the Table---Offerings of the Market---Household Hints’ You Can Get What You Like Best at Market Now Grapes are now on the Omaha market for the first time this season. Not California grapes, but Concord grapes, the kind that make your teeth black and rejoice your palate, the kind that make lucious pies and fine jelly and the kind that slip down your throat so deliciously right from the bunch. . Apples, in spite of the lamentations of the market men that the crop was no good a-tall, are here in fair quan- tities and of good quality. Crab ap- ples are also plentiful but cost around 50 cents for a market basketful. The new sweet potatoes are here, fine looking specimens that are bring- ing 10 cents a pound from those who aren't satisfied with the old crop. Watermelons and cantaloupes are still with us in great quantity, splendid quality and at reasonable prices. Honey dew melons are also on hand and are almost as good as| their name sounds. | Blueberries are still very plentiful. | Peaches and pears are abundant and | fine in flavor and looks. Cucumbers are plentiful and so are those little ones that are intended for pickling and eating in the winter time. Preserving tomatoes are on the market. They are those little yellow fellows, you know. And their big red sisters of the more common variety are in the heydey of their ex- istence, a bit late but big, red, lucious and cheap, or rather inexpensive, to use the more elegant word. Little onions are also procurable, the kind that are intended to go into the pickling jars and barrels for next winter’s appetite coaxing. If you want to put up plum jelly or butter, now is the time to get vour wild plums. -— Did you ever hear of a “chromatic kitchen?” In New York there is a certain keen witted woman architect and interior decorator who designs| these kitchens, and she is earning a snug professional income by so do- ing. , The “chromatic kitchen,” it may be explained, is simply a well ar- ranged kitchen decorated according to some striking and novel color scheme. The young woman who originated this scheme was not al- ways so prosperous. In fact, there was a period in her early profes- sional life when she was on the verge of giving up the whole business of architecture and decoration and taking up something less high sound- ing in name, but with a surer income attached. A Harmonious Scheme. One day when passing through the basement of a large department store a display of blue and white enameled ware caught her eye. She was struck with an idea. With the blue and white enameled ware as a basis, why not work out a blue and white kitch- en, using blue and white tile back of the kitchen range, blue and white linoleum on the floor, and at the windows white scrim curtains with design in blue stencil, and so throughout the kitchen? An architect acquaintance who was planning a country house for a wealthy client permitted her to apply her idea to the kitchen. The owner was delighted when it was completed, going so far as to declare that the kitcheri was the best room in her new country house. The young woman realizing that! Beautify the Kitchen she had made a discovery, deter-| mined to follow it up. First of all she | made a thorough study of good kitchen design, so that she was a master of the efficient kitchen. Then she looked into the question of kitch- en wares and was delighted to find | that nowadays enameled ware comes in a wide range of colors. There are | soft mottled grays, two or three shades of blue, a Nile green and an olive green, a brown and an ame- thyst, an old ivory, a Concord purple and a royal purple, and still others. | Sometimes there is a combination of two colors, as in the case of blue and white ware, which is white within and blue without, A Clever Combination. Using these light cleaning wares as a basis and matching them in tile floor coverings and hangings she has specialized in the ‘*‘chromatic kitch-| en” for the country house, and she has done it exceedingly well. Some- times she uses a combination of colors, as, for instance, pruple tinted with old ivory tile and hangings. The New York housewife loves novelty, especially if it costs but little more than some everyday humdrum ef- fect. This is true of the “chromatic kitchen,” for none of the materials used by this clever woman are more costly than the commonplace arti- cles. For instance, all this attractive enameled ware cost little more than the plainer lines usually sold in the stores, and this is likewise true of tile and linoleum. The secret was in the happy thought of applying a har- monious color scheme to kitchen fur- nishings. The Home Table Nothing is better on a hot day than cold food. It takes precedence over all other kind of edibles on the sum- mer menu. A frozen dessert makes a delicious and refreshing finish to any meal, and while summer days last should be _erved frequently. Several suggestions for frozen desserts are given below, along with one or two other summer recipes. Apricot Sherbet. One can of apricots run through sieve, four eggs, three cups of sugar, one quart of fresh milk, one table- spoon of gelatine. Scald ‘milk and add sugar and gelatine dissolved in} cold water. Beat whites and yolks of eggs separately, then put together and pour the scalding milk over it, beating thoroughly. Let cool and| add apricots. Then add sufficient| water to make a gallon and freeze. Frozen Souffle. Beat the yolks of four fresh eggs very smooth, then blend four table- spoonfuls of granulated sugar, beat- ing slowly, but steadily, until the two ingredients are thoroughly incorpo- | rated.

Beat the cream, add two tablespoonfuls of sugar and the lemon juice. Decorate the top of tapioca with this whipped cream. Garnish with large ripe cher- ries. Tapioca Cream. One quart hot milk, four level table- spoonfuls granulated tapioca, one- eighth teaspoonful salt, two eggs, one- };Ialf cup sugar, one teaspoonful van- tla.

See that yours is clean and sweet. Keep the door closed, otherwise the temperature rises and the ice melts rapidly, If the box is kept clean it is not necessary to scald it out, but it is a wise precaution to do this occasion- ally.
