SOFA PILLOWS.
Newest Ones Are Made of Chamo1s

and Calfsk1n.
The woman who does not own "A
skin sofa pillow has not acquired the
latest fad. which was born of sorrow
over the death of pet
This pet was calf. which had met
an untimely end, there by awakening
much grief among the feminine MEM
bers of the family In the midst of
their woe it suddenly occurred to one
of the girls that. inasmuch as a stuffed
calf would be rather out of place in
the household the skin might be
utilized for some other purpose. That
was when the pillow idea presented
Itself.
, The men scoffed at the proposition.
and said that it was absurd. but they
had to admit that the glossy brown
skin, with its beautifully marked
WHlUe spo'st WAS too hahuooiho W po
buried with the calf, SO before the
last said rites were performed the
body of the little Jersey was skinned.
In due time the skin was cured
trimmed into shape. and used to cover
an AIR cushion. 1t was made square
with the exception of the corners,
which were trimmed to represent ears
there at each corner, and tied with
strips of the calf skin in bow knot.
When done the skin had the look Of
delicate shade of panne velvet.
This novel method of preserving the
pet calf's skin suggested to someone
else au idea, which resulted in another
unusual pillow. On square of
plain chamois skin a fire place was
painted, bricks and all, showing the
glowing wood. the kettle and irons.
Paper patterns of a cat and two kit
tens were cut and piece of black
fur was brought into requisition for
the tables. The fur was cut the same
size as the patterns, padded slightly
and glued securely to an angle that
brought them to the left of the
hearthstone, facing the blaze. and
with their backs to the public-a
thoroughly domestic scene.
Some of the newest college pillows
are made OF skins. An especially
handsome one was recently fashione
out of black and white calfskin,
yellow chamos skin being used to
form the legend selected. the letters
were first outlined on the pillow. then
the ohamois ones were glued on.
Small holes were made with an awl at
frequent intervals about the letters.
then little brass clasps with Iail

and the clasps spread in position un.
derneath. OF course, this pillow is
not especially desirable from the stand.
point of comfort, but it makes good
show pillow.
Calfksin and chamois skin are softer
and better adapted to useful pillows.
if properly made, than other skins.
However, those who are so fortunate
as to have beautiful skins of any sort
in their possession will be able to put
them to n new use in this way.
For instance, some of the new men {
dens are upholstered with the skins OF
animals, small heads and tails being
suspended form the corners to give a
finishing touch. .-Philadelphia Ledger

There is considerable talk in the
