and two small tucks, or else cuibroid-
cry. There should also be six of
these. Ten or twelve dresses and six
night-sllps are gooi supply.
The slips can be made of cambric at
fourteen cents yard. 1t will take
two yards for each one. They want
to be cut n yard long. A width and
half or little over is wide enough,
as the eambrics are all yard wide.
These can be fullel in around the
neck and left to hang loose, or made
with little tucls across the front and
back A pretty narrow plain rutiling
comes at fifty cents piece of ten
yards, which is very nice to use for
trimming on these slips. 1t washes
and wears we'll, and is "babyish."
Many of the French imported slips are
trimmed with it. In place of it, how
ever, narrow cdging or Valenciennes
lace may be used for the neck and
the sleeves.
The dresses can be made OF a more
expensive quality of cambria and the
best ones of nainsook. There is very
little variety in the way these are
made. Those with little tucks across
the front are the prett;est. A line of
feather stitching can be made be-
tween the tucks. A cotton comes by
the ball for the purpose. Narrow
lace Or fine nainsook edging is best
for the finish of the neck and sleeves.
A deep hem with three or four very
fine tucls above it is more used nowa-
days to finish the bottom of the skirt
than the ruflies of lace and embroid-

"Foolscap paper" has II curious
origin. 1t is said that this designa-
tion is derived from tho fact that
Charles |. granted to certain parties
monopoly of the manufacture of
paper. and every sheet bore in water
marks the royal arms But the par
liament under Cromwell made jests
of this in every conceivable manner
and ordered the royal arms TO be ro-
moved and the FOOLS cap and bells
to be substituted. or course these
were reversed after the restoration;
but the paper of the sizo of the par
lament journals always retained the
name of foolscap.
