is III .de combination and in using
binder which develops and holds me
flower odors in a bouquet. Remember,

ELSIE (Belts) BELT buckles of all
descriptions are being worn and you
can Gst them for any price, but l
should ad@ise you to send for leather
belt to match your gown. They range
from twenty-five cents to a dollar and
a quarter. The cheaper ones really are
very good and 1 think will answer your
purpose quite as well as the more ex-
pensiye Gnes. That is, of course, il
you can match your gown. Send a
sample along so you will not run the
risk Of having TO return It.
COUNTRY GIRL Embroidery
Certainly you can send to any shop in
the city that carries a line of embroi-
deries. and they will send you the CEN
ter piece stamped as you order it, BE
careful not to get flowers, like roses,
that require great deal of shading
for they are difficult to do nicely and
require experience. Violets are always
pretty and you can work them in
white and SO get used to the linen and
hoops. State the price you want to
pay and you will get in return some
pretty design. There are frequent sales
at the emporiumS and at such times
you can get fairly good square for
fifty cents. / believe the silk comes
ten cents for three skeinS or seven for
twenty cents.
SADIE Ctally cards) 1.-The prettiest
idea 1 have seen lately for tally cards
is lowered wallpaper. Buy it by the
yard and cut the flowers out and put
a piece of baby ribbon through a tiny
slit so that it may be fastened to each
player. Deep red roses shading to pink
are especially fetching This way OF
making them is very inexpensive, and
as they serve beautifully for place
cards at the supper table the same
color scheme is prettily and success
fully carried out.
