niture. Grandmother had made pin chairs
and lounges when she was a little girl
and grandmother in turn showed mother
how 20 make them If by chance mother
has forgotten TO tell her little girls and
boys about it they may learn from the
pictures in to-day's Tribune
TO make pin furniture you will need
box of black headed pins. or of pins with
round heads of any color. You will also
need a cork stopper or two of good size
and some scraps of velvet or other heavy
cloth.
Suppose you want to make round chair,
covered with red velvet. Take the cork
and slice off, evenly. piece about quarter
of an inch thick. This is for the seat. Now
cover this neatly with the velvet, or bro
cade. Then stick into the under side, heads
downward four pins These are the four
legs.
Next arrange the pins for the back
around the upper edge of the cork. as
shown in the Illustration. Now you can
begin doing the fancy winding, when
makes the chair so attractive. Take some
twist, or silk thread of the same shade, as
the velvet which is on the seat. and tie one
end firmly to one of the back pins. Twist
the silk thread once over each pin, ana
draw 1t firmly out, until you have put
twist around each pin. Then repeat this.
back and forth. until your chair looks
right.
To make a couch. use the little box the
rms come in for the seat and cover this
with cloth.

that can be made is the 'wishbone chair
If you have never seen One-and probably
YOU never have. because the making OF
furniture is almost lost art
ask your mother or the cook to save for
YOU the wishbone from the next goose that
is cooked at your house, because the shape
of the goose wishbone is best for this chair. |
AS you may see from the picture. the bone
makes a lovely curved back to the tiny
chair, and also makes the two front legs.
The seat is a small. round piece of cork.
covered with some upholstery goods The
bone is supported by two pins at the back
run through the cork seat, one from the
top the other from the bottom, this last
forming the third leg of the tiny armchair.

been quite different from what they are to-
dav That was before there were so many
curious and wonderful mechanical toys for
children. and long before there were half
so MANY nice ''boughten" things to play
with as there are to-day. Maybe that was
the reason why father and mother learned
how to make so many lovely homemade
tovs with which they managed TO have no
end of fun
Father had never heard of a toy automo-
bile when he was q boy, and probably ne
had no lovely train of cars. or no scenic
railroad but he could make kites-Just
simple cross kites-that would fly way,

to make the upright and how many inches
to make the cross bar, and how many
rags to knot into the tail. And proba bly,
fathers son couldn't make a kite that
would go at all
