Pauer Quilts.

In some parts of England there is
quite n trade carried on by poor people
in making paper quilts for their poorer
neighbors. They are simply composed
of sheets of brown paper sewed togeth-
err and perforated all over at distances
of an inch or two apart, covered with
chintz or cretonne on one side and liIed
with patchwork or old sheets-anything
available, in fact. They make surpris-
ingly warm covers and are much ap-
preciated.-LondOn Tit-Bits.
