EnpIand and France.

Rightly do her historians descant of
the glorious role she has played in the

'Sympathetic genius which has seized

Amusement For the Tots.

However soon children tire of play
ing with toys, they always find endless
amusement in making new playthings
for themselves. The Fabrication of pa
per dolls out of coIorel fashion plates
is Il work which will easily serve to
rass away a wet afternoon in the
nursery The figures should be cut
neatly round, pasted on to cardboard
and this in turn cut out, 50 rs to stiftcn
the figures, says WomanS Life. The
arms and legs can be made 10 move if
these are divided in the first instance,
mounted separately on Car!boHrd and
attached TO the dolls by means of small
paper fasteners, the heads being treat
cd in like manner.

Use For Daily Papers.

The careful housewife has Il use for
everything, and the daily papers are
by no means an inconSdcrable factor
toward insuring Il clean kitchen. For
instance. a supply of paper folded in
eight and hung up over the kitchen
sink will be found most convenient to
slip under Il hot kettle that has just
been lifted from the stove, says Wom-
ans Life. A store of full sized sheets
should likewise be kept in the kitchen
table drawer, so that there is always
one handy to spread over the table IL
necessary during work, which cal be
afterward burned.
