A HOMEMADE HAT PIN.

''I'm from the country" said
a plainly dressed but wholesome
looking girl, who was the special
sryest of the New York girl who
presided over the chocolate pot,
but if you wont all laugh I'll tell
you of a little fashion of mine
that | don't think is half bad. l
wanted something new in a hat
pin not long ago, something orig
inal, and l couldn't afford a jew
ell pin, so l made a hat pin for
myself. l first bought a cheap
segnet hat pin; the head COW
cred with a thin layer of wad-
ding. Then from a piece of cloth
of gold / cut a circle an inch and
a half in diameter, and inthe CEN
ter embroidered my monogram.
After this was finished l shirred
up the piece of gold cloth and
slipped it over the head of the
hat pin and then wound ii / k
around the base Of the head until
it was tight, just as the wire is
wound around the broom. It
made a very pretty hat pin and
cost only a few cents. If your
monogram makes too complicated
a design, a single embroidered
flower looks very attractive. y
