cENTERPIEcE AND DOLLY.
Fringe Does Not Stand Laundering
Well and Hemstitching or Hand
worked Hem Is Better.

Nothing in the way of fancy work
can be more beautiful than the en-
broidered table pieces which have been
SO popular for several years. The
material chosen is usually linen, and
may be OF ally quality from the finest
lawn to the heavy butchers linen.
The edges are finished with hem
stitched hens, buttonholed scallops or
fringe. Hens are a neat and appro-
pirate finish for square doilies and
centerpieces; scallops are suitable for
the round or fancy shapes, and may
be made very durable if the stitches
are deep, taking a firm hold on the
linen so they will not pull out during
the process of laundering. They are
also strengthened by using coarse
white thread around the. edges, before
working with the silk. Fringe is
handsome at first, but is not recon-
mended because it soon becomes rag.

OF the Michigan Farm Journal.
Pillow cas- linen was the material
used for a large centerpiece which
was finished with hens two inches
wide. A design of thistles and leaves
scattered %trregularly above the hem
formed a border, the flowers worked in
delicate shades of purple silk, the
leaves In green and the stems in
greenish-brown. There were six dol
lies finished in the same way, except
that the hens are not quite so wide,
and the designs are smaller.
The Delft shades of blue produce
beautiful effects when used on table
linen. A set of round doilies is dec

OF which forms large, shallow seal

stitch, and the remainder of the de-

doilies to match is made of fine linen,
and has a border of pink carnations
with green leaves. The carnation is
n of the easiest flowers for begin

are very popular decorations for ta-
Bile linen. Upon a round c%enterpiace

with green silk, making very strong
and durable edge on heavy material.
