and altogether too good TO be dis
carded.
The cover that an ingenious girl has
devised is Of natural linen: a piece IS
cut TO fit the top Of the hammock.
while to this Is scanned on both sides
a valance about the depth u the dis
cardcd fringe.
This valance had upon IL a semi
conventional design. stenciIed In fuli
green and yellow. the whole outlined
In brown heavy working cotton The
lower edge vt the valance was raw

were covered 20 raatch-s design with
the same motif and treated in the
same combination Of coiors being stem

The result was not only artistic. bu;

made washable
There are possible many variations
of this idea. so that the girl Who is
