DAINTY EASTER GIFTS.
How to Make Those That Embody the
Spirit of the Day.


Especial Correspondents.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb 28.-The six
weeks of Lent give none too much time.
in which to prepare appropriate gifts
for Easter. Only few years ago flowers
were considered the only proper remem-
brance, little later elaborate bonbon-
nieres came to share the honors, and
now we discuss Easter gifts quite as
naturally as we do those of Christmas
tide. One little difference, however, re-
mains-or remains for those people who
have the subtier sense. Gifts made at
Easter are made to embody the Easter
spirit-that is, they are, or should be,
mathematical in some way or should be
SO selected as to suggest the season in
color, form, decoration or use. White
and gold are peculiarly Easter colors.
The Easter lily makes eminently appro-
pirate decoration. Prayer book marks or
anything that pertains to the church
services is always in taste. In fact,
there is host from which to choose.
To be in good taste one needs only to
refrain from overlavishness and to seek
for some symbol that pertains to the
day.
A paper knife is always Of use and
will always find a place in the book
lovers room. A very pretty whim is to
buy one of the plain sort, made of satin
wood, and to paint upon it any of the
sweet wild flowers of spring Burnt or
fire etching. too, is delightful, and the
simplest paper cutter of wood can be
made appropriate by simply etching
upon it group of Easter lilies. The
work itself done in any serious way re-
quires training, but with the proper
tools at hand. or even single hot rod
of iron, pointed at one end, very effect
i've simple things can be done by any one
who has taste and skill in drawing.
The catchall shown in the drawing
can be filed with real Easter lilies, and
SO made into flower holder for the
time being, while it becomes more last
ing convenience by virtue of its evident
serviceableness. It's shape is that of a
simple cornucopia, made long enough at
the upper point to turn over as the illus
tration indicates. The material is heavy
white linen duck, and no lining is re-
quired. The edge is closely scalIoped
with heavy white silk, and over the sur
face here and there are the sweet vio-
lets of spring EN- broidered in their own
lovely color. At the lower point and at
the one which turns over at the top are
pale lavender ribbon bows. A loop of
the same serves to hang the cornucopia
upon the wall.
OF book covers no one has ever toe
many. A pretty model for Easter is OF
heavy white linen duck, the new sort
which shows fine rib. It has simple
scroll designs in two opposite corners,
worked in fine gold thread. and between

the two bears the quotation, "My work
shall be my company, nurtured with
the same. It is extremely attractive at
the same time that it is easy to make
and is not nearly so perishable as at first
appears, for it can be Numbered without
harm if care is taken to preserve the
shape. The ribbed duck is sufficiently
heavy to require no lining. The pockets
are lined under and made fast to the
main cover by fine buttonholing done
with white silk, and all the edges are
treated in a similar way.
A real boon to embroiderers is a silk
book, and as it has the merit of being
entirely new it is admirable for the pur-
pose in view. 1t is just what it's name
implies, book for silks. and each leaf
keeps one skein in perfect condition.
To make it, select good quality heavy
paper, such as is used for little writing,
either of one tint or several, as you pre-
fer. Cut ten pieces so inches long by
16M wide At the two sides of each one
make fold q inches wide and crease
it well. Then fold again and crease
and yet again till you have three folds
at each side of each piece of paper or
leaf of the book; then fold each exactly
in half. and you will have ten leaves
each 81 inches by ~. When all are
in readiness, open the middle folds and
lay one upon the other. Lay the whole
ten upon the inside of the cover, so that
three folds fall at the exact middle, and
either stitch them into place or make
them fast with the wire pins which
binders use.
For the cover almost any pretty ma
terial is suitable. The one shown in the
drawing is Of white silk. The anemones
are embroidered in white. The ribbon
and the letters are all done with the
finest gold thread. The foundation is
heavy tailors' canvas. OF this cut a.
piece 9 inches long by 614 wide. Cover
the outside with the embroidered silk
and line with plain india, either white
or gold color
To fill the book select ten skeins of
floss. Unite the knot of each and lap
one round the innermost fold of each
leaf; then cut the skein at the project
ing or lapel end.
When needleful is wanted, it is
only necessary to hold the end Of the
book from which the cut ends protrude
firmly in one hand and to draw out a
double thread. CLARE BUNCE.

EUGENE, Ore, March miss Mary
Berger, a fashionable dressmaker of

United States commissioner for sending
improper letters through the mails The
circumstances of the case present fea-

If no mistake has been made

for the past year and half,
writing notes to various leading women

that will be unveiled on the rocks not
far from the farmhouse of Auchmore,
where Highland Mary was born. The
date of the ceremony has been set for
July 81, 1896, the centennial anniver-
sary of the great poets death.
The statue will necessarily be some
what of a fanciful character, but the
costume at least will be historically cor
rect. Sculptor Stevenson has made the
subject a careful study, and the details
of the costume have been taken from
the works of David Allen, an artist
we'll known for his illustration of Scotch
life at the time when "the golden hours
on angel wings flew DER Burns and
his ''dearie. " The statue will stand in
a very conspicuous position in front of
the ruins of the ancient stronghold
known as Dunoon castle and will be
plainly visible from the Firth of Clyde.
Burns was a man of many loves, and
there would be a great many more
statues in Scotland if each of the poet s
sweethearts was immortalized by the
sculptor's chisel, but Burns love for
Highland Mary, the heroine of his poem
of that name and of the touching lines
''To Mary In Heaven, " was undoubted-
~ one of the purest and most pathetic
episodes in his i'll regulated and COM
paratively short life.
