We all remember how the flrat of tha old-fashioned country life playa, "The Old Homestead," took New York by storm, and, then went forth to unlimited conquest In all the principal cities of the land. It seems that a atmllar touch of realism haa been successfully adopted as a -basis for home entertainment as witness the following account of the celebration of tenth wedding annlvereary ln taan- lonable New York home, aa described by the Philadelphia Telegraph: "Inatead of tin, usually the symbol of the tenth year of wedded life, Mr. and Mra Davis provided for their friends an unusual entertainment "The rooms of their horns were transformed Into a veritable country home, or old farmhouse. In one room there was a reproduction of a stable, with hay, rflake-bellevelraraea. harneea hung on the wall and even palls of bran. Leading to this room there was , i. -J GO., Ltd. a grove of green and flower, not of the fine conservatory kind, but those of the old-faahloned garden variety,'- including- rosea, buda In yellow and red, and "bleeding hearta.'

Heat this to the boiling point. , The little hint about roasting the al monds for the surface of a pudding Is one applicable to many cakes. Of course. If laid upon the top, the al monds of a baked pudding or a pound cake would brown during the baking process. When almonda are to be mixed In the cake, or pudding, they ahould be flrat roaated. since the flavor Is much Improved thereby. e . e r "Burnt almond Ice cream" Is not made with the burnt almond candles, which have a red coloring matter In them, but from roaated almonds left unoolored.
