THE NEWEST FAD.
r. the "race Book Which Takes the
Place of the OId-Time
Album.

Quite the latest idea is to have face
book. Instead of the old-style album.
collection of drawing paper sheets
are bound together, and the friends OF
the book owner are expected to do
the rest, says the Washington Star.
a book sometimes made of heavy,
coarse white linen, and is desirable
and durable style, with the cover of
brilliant crimson, deep blue or yellow
linen. If a clever sketch drawn in
black is put on it, SO much the better.
Here are lines that may be written in
fancy letters below the sketch:
IT'S face book rare.
And, friends, dare
To trace its pages DER;
Their minds to linn,
however it may be bore"
1t is the proper caper to introduce
the book at five o'clock teas and Sum
day evening suppers. In it each guest
is asked to draw head of some sort
girl, man. child or animal. 1t does not
in the least matter if they cannot draw
at all. They must do their best, or
worst. Usually the worst is very de-
slrable, because it makes laugh. The
amateur artists must sign their names
or write lines descriptive of their eff
forts. The protests against thus COM
hitting themselves are sometimes loud
and deep. No attention should be paid
to them.
The most amusing pages in the face
book are apt to be the ones in which
detached human features are drawn.
For instance, there may be a nose done
by one friend and an ear by another,
just the tip end of the dimpled chin
by third or the sketch of hand.
1t is good plan to have the pages with
these odds and ends of features
sketched in without autographs.
good line at the head of the page would
be: by their works We shall know
them" These are the guessing leaves
of the face book, and many jolly hour
may be passed by visitors who try to
guess the names of the artists. Some
women insist that musical friends shall
express sentiment by means of bar
Of music. The selection of the bar is
made from popular song, and the
first word of the line is written over
the initial note, while the last one APP
pears above the closing one. This
helps out the guesses who cannot read
music, but who is familiar with the
songs of the day. Other face book own
ers, with original minds, insist that
only flowers or plants or trees be
drawn on the pages. A glance at some
of these makes one wonder to see how
little form in flowers is appreciated.
Color appears to be the chief point that
appeals to the average eye. and form
to little or no place at all in it,.
The face book need never be COM
plete, for each evening that a woman
entertains a fresh leaf may be added
