What he wanted was smoke, 
and the round “canteen” cig¬

Captain X, upon his return

that we make his favorite cig¬

The Art of Tea In a Garden 
(Continued from page 62) 
silver! Its success depends upon such 
ordinary things as convenient tea tables! 
Whether it be a solitary tea,—cups 
.sipped between the pages of a iDook— 
or tea with a group of friends, or even 
the more elaborate lawn teas so popu¬ 
lar in England, the first requisite is a 
good tea table. The larger the com¬ 
pany, the larger the table or number of 
tables. Tea around a table is a pleasure, 
but to sit stiffly on a garden bench and 
balance cup and saucer and plate is an 
abomination. Consequently, the hostess 
should have a sufficiently large table at 
which to place her guests, or plenty of 
small tables. It should be light, easily 
moved around, and, in its texture, have 
an outdoor air. 
The iron table shown on page 62 ap¬ 
pears convenient, so does the little 
painted table on that same page. The 
latter is quite convenient. The legs 
fold under when you press the lever at 
each end. It comes in mahogany or 
painted, and is 29" long and 12" high. 
It can be set beside the garden chairs 
for a tete-a-tete tea. Its price, $27, 
makes it quite attractive. 
Another convenience is the white 
enameled willow ice tea stand. The 
middle compartment is for cracked ice 
or ice cream. The rim holds twelve 
glasses, two jugs and a sandwich plate. 
This stand is only 28" high—a con¬ 
venient size. Handles at either side 
make the maid’s work easy, and it can 
be carried from the house, fully equipped, 
without any trouble. Complete, with 
twelve glasses, glass spoons and two 
jugs, this stand is priced at $60. The 
stand alone comes at $35. 
The willow tea cart reduces serving 
to a minimum of trouble. It has a re¬ 
movable glass trap top 18" long by 27" 
wide. The cart itself stands at 28" high. 
It is priced at $32.75. The muffin stand 
beside it contains four removable plates. 
It is 38" high and comes for $12.75. 
These two pieces almost furnish the tea 
house. At a slightly increased cost they 
can be painted any color or shade to 
harmonize with the other garden furni¬ 
ture. 
A four tea table, shown at the bot¬ 
tom of this page, has an unusual but 
convenient shape. It measures 28" high, 
25" long and 16" wide. The price is 
$30. Handles on the ends make it 
easy carrying. 
Of the china to use for tea in a gar¬ 
den come innumerable patterns. One 
should choose her china according to 
the guests and the occasion. Cups of 
the picturesque Breton ware are often 
available. There are also colorful sets 
in Italian peasant design, crude in form 
and decoration but pleasant to the eye 
and entirely suitable for outdoor tea. 
Or again one may prefer a plainer type. 
The set shown on page 62 is Limoges 
and comes from France. It is available 
in either delicate blue or green and is 
decorated with a fine gold line. There 
are twenty-one pieces in the set. The 
price, $35, is attractive. 
Tea drinkers fall into two classes— 
those who prefer it hot and those who 
prefer it iced. Iced tea is an American 
drink and is a product of that school 
of American gastronomies which has 
taught the world the subtle values of 
heat degrees in serving dishes. For¬ 
eigners, the English especially, may 
choose to stick by hot tea on hot days, 
but Americans find peculiar pleasure in 
taking their tea cold, and they have 
created some interesting sets in which 
to serve this drink. 
One of the unusual iced tea sets be¬ 
ing shown this spring is of crackle glass 
ware. It consists of six glasses, a jug, 
glass straws and a wicker tray which 
has a cretonne bottom covered with 
glass. It sells for $14 complete.
