decorate them during late years with
everything from the pyrographic needle
to the paintbrush: but It has remained
for an artist to bring them to a high
degree OF polish over her painted sur

paint. besides an exquisite feeling for
the beautiful.
The box lid and its sides were painted
with Antwerp blue, that wonderful color.
transparent yet rich and dark. and the
band bordering the lid and the lower
edge of the box were done with lamp
black oil paint. On the top Of the lid.

II is so used to the stylish and new
- that you feel sure she will clap 1t
right on her hat, make q buckle OF gold
colored brocade.
You will need a piece OF buckram cut
into an oblong square about four by
eight inches. and then cut further into
a buckle shape with its open spaces
and its crosspiece, over which rib
bon or velvet hat trimming is to be
slipped.
After the buckle shape Is padded on
its surface with wadding and wired at
its back with fiat hat wire 1t II covered
with pieces Of gold-colored satin bro
cade of a high luster. This is mitered
at its corners. folded over and tackled
together at the back. and then decorated
on top with gold thread darned across

buckle with stitches that just barely
catch the surface OF the satin and
placed 30 far apart that the luster Of
the satin glints through.
The gold buckle is more suitable AZ q
gift than some gayly colored one, be-
cause It may be used on almost any
hat, or at least with any color.

How to Apply the
Design
THERE are two wara to on.]

THERE are two ways to apply
this design to the material
upon which you wish to work it.
1T your material is sheer-such
as handkerchief linen, lawn, batiste
and the like-the simplest method
Is to lay the material over the de-
sign and, with a wcll-pointed pencil,
draw over each line.
II your material is heavy. secure
piece of transfer or impression
paper. Lay 1t, face down, upon this;
then draw over each line of the
paper design with hard pencil or
the point of steel knitting needle.
Upon lifting the pattern and trans
fer paper you will find a neat and
accurate impression of the DESIGN
upon your material.
There are two points to observe
In this simple process, if YOU vould
execute 1t satisfactorily. One is.
see that your material is level-cut
and folded by a thread-and that
your design is placed upon it evenly
at every point.
The second is. when placed accu
rately, secure the design to the ma
terial with thumbtacks or pins 80
that they cannot slip during the
operation.
Transfer paper comes in white.
black. blue. red and yellow. | ad.
wise the use of the lighter colors
when possible, as the black and blue
are so liable TO crock.
Do not rest your hand or fingers
upon any part of the design you are
transferring, else the imprint of
hand or fingers will be as distinct
upon the material as the drawn
lines of the design.

seriously indeed if YOU expect TO &C

in the deep significance OF Christmas.
When it wearies the giver to the point

who marries. They have become a most
popular .-.ft for the bride-to-be, little
addition 10 her bridal chest.
Let US talk first about the shield de-
sign. or which half is shown. The
large shield in the center CO the border
will be outlined around it's edge, just
along the single line, and worked solid

shields on each side will be done in
solid stitch along their double lines.

the very easiest way Of marking and
padding an initial. The letter Is pur-
chased and basted into position as a
padding over which to work the solid
embroidery stitches.

the deep oval point. and with less work
involved than seems at first suggested.
The large and smaller points forming
the border are intended to be padded
and treated as buttonholed scallops,
with the long lines extending upward
from them embroidered In outline.
Then there is a curious halved point,
each section of which Is to be padded
and done I'm solid stitch. There IL also q
