A DAINTY PENWIPER.

In hunting around for trifles that are
appropriate for prizes have you seen
the new butterfly penwipers? They
are easily made by the girl who can
paint or stencil on velvet and are ar
tistic trifles to hang by a desk.
Some of the penwipers are made
with tho wings OF the butterfly spread
wide, while others show but one wing
on a side. Whichever model is select
ed, two sides are cut alike and painted
so that the effect is equally good. no
matter how it is turned up.
The body is stuffed into a rounding
shape. and beneath the wings are sew
eral folds of fine chamois.
This same model could be used with
leaves Of fine white flannel for a needle
case to hang near a dressing table. 1t
can hold threaded needles I'm all colors.
There Is no greater convenience than
TO have utensils at hand for hurried

WHAT A WOMAN CANNOT DO.

Resist a Friday bargain sale.
Dislike any man with an automobile
Like a woman more attractive than
herself.
Pose as saint when she has temper

Forget an engagement with a man
she loves.
Learn how to throw in the direction
she intends.
Keep her curiosity from running
away with her
Smoke cigarettes and call herself a
perfect LADY,
BE calm when man keeps her wait
ing five minutes.
Resist the dictates Of fashion, no
matter how expensive.
Make love to another woman's hus-
band and call it platonic friendship.
Ask a man to marry her, no matter
how sure she is of his love-Youngs-
