HOMEMADE HAMMOCKS.

It surely was an ingenious as well as
tasteful woman who made hammock
of plain blue denim and finished the side
valances with deep knotted fringe, with
scallop crochet heading made OF blue
and-white threaded knitting cotton.
The hammock proper WAS made OF
five melon-shaped Of piece that Is wild

heavy cord, flashed the ends. Inside
the cord line of eyelets, evenly spaced,
were strongly buttonholed, and iron
ends for suspending the hammock were
fastened to position by laciDg strong
cord alternately through the eyelets and
hook-ends, and knotting securely to the
latter each time.
Hammocks Of linen canvas are easily
made and in decided favor, though less
decorative than denim ones. Get two

strong cords through them, knotting
them firmly into large metal hook.
Run a steel rod or curved stick through
the hem at the head and foot, and the
hammock is ready to hang. A valance
with braid of contrasting color, adds
much to their beauty.
Hammocks of cloth are warmer than

they make a pleasing variety for the
