It's amazing what an effect of abundance you can gA with just one dozen roses if you arrange them in a low boat-shaped glass dish. Cut the stems In graduated lengths placing the longest ones at the two ends almost parallel to the table top. Working toward the centre, use shorter and shorter steins until the roses meet in a low flat arc Sweetheart or Pinocchio roses are lovely arranged like an old fashioned bouquet in a cone of fluted htoe paper.

Or smaller nosegays can be used in the small dishes of a beautiful epergne. Much the same effect can be achieved by using pair of crystal candelabra as a container and placing one dainty nosegay in each candle holder. Sentimental occasions like St, Day, an announcement luncheon or a birthday party for a teen-age daughter, call for a feminine appeal In the table setting and a light-hearted touch in the decoration. Choosing roses as the theme, you'll be able to carry the motif straight through from the tablecloth to the decorations on the cake that will be served for dessert. Begin with an Irish linen tablecloth In a damask pattern that features roses.

There are a number of new rose designs coming over from Ireland now that are very modern In feeling and make perfect background for the popular silver and china patterns. Some beautiful rose designs In china are now being shown tiny moss roses scattered over the shoulder of plates and bread and Hints On Making Over Pieces Of Old Furniture Sunla nd If there is no room for the old library table in your new room scheme, how about ref inishing the top, and putting the table in Junior's room for a work table that doesnt seem to fit-in anywhere, anymore, if it is of the old-fashioned two-part pedestal type, might be separated and done over, then used as two smart console tables for the living room or with the flat sides priced against the wall. Old marble top tables can be cut down for coffee tables, refinish-ing to suit your room scheme. If you have more dining chairs than you are using, perhaps two of them might be Just right for the hall. The seats may be re- Covered, and the wooden frames painted or refinished.

This will not interfere with their occasional use in the dining room, but rather add charm, when they are placed at opposite ends of the dining table. Salt Cod Fish Cakes Empty the contents of 1 package shredded cod fish into a strainer and pour boiling water through. Drain and press out any remaining moisture. Add to 3 cups smooth mashed potatoes, which should be quite stiff. Add 1 scraped onion juice, 1 egg, 1 tbsp.

minced parsley, and salt and pepper to taste. Cool, and form into flat round cakes, containing 2 tbsp. each. Cover with fine dry crumbs. To fry, melt shortening or shortening and meat fat combined in a heavy sauce pan.

The fat should be 1 in. deep. Heat until a cube of bread will" brown in it in 1 min. Then fry the cod fish cakes. Turn them once.

Drain on absorbent paper and serve with tomato sauce. This may be canned if desired, in which case, tsp. powdered dill gives a delicious taste. IT'S Reports from the Spring furniture showings say that furniture is sUll scarce, that prices are high, and going higher as manufacturing costs mount, and that, because of the big demand, most outlets are still being rationed. All of which means, that a wise homemaker will continue keeping her furniture in as good condition as possible, replacing a piece only when it is absolutely necessary, while she waits for the time when there will be a wider choice at perhaps more reasonable prices.

Don't discard any piece that you may look upon as a "white elephant." A little furniture surgery, skillfully applied, solves many problems. A clumsy but comfortable chair perhaps, one that has never fitted in with the scheme of things. Maybe a new, a very special slipcover may make it more acceptable. Or if a straight chair has knobs on the back posts or a curved filagree in the centre, these can be removed before a tailored slip cover is made. It is easy to have rockers removed, or to lower a chair by having the legs shortened.

Substitute Footboard An old-fashioned bed, one with a high headboard looks extremely modern with the foot-board substituted for the hearboard. Then paint is, or, better still, cover it with a gay slip to match the spread. Remove the "gingerbread" from an old dresser or sideboard, re-finish it as a modern chest of drawers, take off the mirror and hang it separately or treat the chest to one of those big, un-framed mirrors that do so much for a room. Chest of Drawers A chest of drawers is too useful to part with, even if it does look a little run-down. Why not paint a bright color and add interest to the color scheme of the room? Or, maybe, in its bright paint coat, it would be just right in that dark hall Or perhaps it would fit into a closet and provide excellent storage space.
