It so you an- likely to overdo the mat ter and often produce a crowded or in harmonious effect on an otherwise at tractive table Use judgment and have a reason for garnishing a dish. Either of the follow ing would justitiy the use of a garnish to make tbe appearance of tlie dish attrac tive and ap|«-ahug to Itie appetite, or to add to its food value. Garnishes should not be inedible, for example the green, prickly top of a pineapple, incongruous, as dill pickles with a fruit »alid. inhar monious in flavor, as candied pineapple with cabbage «slid, or in color, as red Iwrts with tomatoes. When a boiled dinuer is served there is no objection to heaping the turnip«, carrots, and cahliage around the meat on a platter and garnishing the whole with iiarvley. in tlie same way a broiled «teak may be garnished with potatoes and baked pepfa-rs, and jiandey or water areas. In both cases the vegetables are hi I m - served with the meat, they are edible, and harmonious in thought, flavor, and color Over garnishing is to be guarded against To use hard cooked egg«*, lemon«, pickles, and cress or parsley with |iotatoee ami sauce on one dish of fish shows a lack of judgment. Potato balls or a border c.f maidied potatiaw to gether with sauce aud any one of the oilier garnishes would lie sufficient. Ke- meraber it is better taste to under gar nish than to over garnish.—M.
