For the Friend That Is lll

tionable. These Will furnish interest
10 the invalid by putting forth little
new green leaves and shoots which
every day Will show some change and
development
When the convalescence is a long one
the invalid Will be very glad to have
some pictures given her to hang on
the walls, either in new frames or in
old ones; anything, in fact, that
changes and brightens up the environ
ment is welcome. A pretty shaded
lamp to stand on the table beside the
bed at night, a littles silver toned bell
to ring TO summon assistance, dainty
dressing sacque. a light quilt to spread
over the bed, any of these gifts would
probably give pleasure to the invalid.
And an individual breakfast set of
pretty china, light wicker bed tray,
or a little clock, would be equally ac-
ceptabIe.
II the convaIescence has progressed
far enough so that any freedom can
be allowed in the diet, light and dainty
dishes. such as jellies, can be prepared.
or fruit can be sent to add a little
relish TO the invalid's bill of fare.
The special tastes Of the person who
is Ill will suggest a number Of little
attentions which can be paid, and when
you are III yourself. if that should hap
pen, you will be able to realize how
much the dreariness of sickness is
lightened by these small acts of re-
membrance.

flowers with long pointed buds, pro-
duce multitude OF blossoms, but they
are a rule somewhat less rugged in
constitution and less fragrant than the
hybrids.
One Of the greatest favorites among
the garden roses is La France; this is
an old variety which has held its popu-
larity for many years because of it's
many good qualities. 1t is a hybrid
tea, and combines the rich odor of the
hybrids with the profuse blooming
habits of the teas; its color is a silvery
pink and the blossoms are large and
finely formed.
Another lovely rose is the Catherine
Mermet, one Of the teas, which is al
most constantly in bloom, covering it's
bush through most of the year with
large blossoms of a creamy pink, shad-
ing to a brighter and deeper tint in
the center
The Mrs. John Laing is one of the
hybrid perpetuals whose popularity has
stood the test of time; it is large,
finely shaped rose of a soft pink color,
very fragrant and an excellent bloomer.
Another good rose of this class is the

face, the feather stitching is done in
silk of a shade to match; and when the
apron is of dotted swiss a little pat
tern of daisies is sometimes worked
near the bottom with the dots for the
flower centers.
Some of the aprons are elaborately
trimmed with insertions and edgingS
of lace; one of these is shown in the
illustration 1t is an exceedingly pref
ty model, divided by strips of the in
sertion into three panels and edged
with a ruffling of lace. Figured lawn
or dimity are excellent materials in
which to develop this apron, or if
plain fabric is used, the little flowers
may be embroidered in working cot
ton.
Many of the aprons have tiny pockets
which are trimmed with lace or with
beading run with ribbon clever
way Of fastening the pocket to the
apron was seen on one made OF sheer
handkerchief linen; the pocket was
and then a series of eyelets was
worked in the scallops through the
two thicknesses of the pocket and the
apron. Sometimes large pockets are
used which extend quite across the
bottom and occasionally these are sub
divided into two or three smaller ones.
Fine hand embroidery is used a great
deal on the dainty sewing aprons. They
are favorite subjects with embroiderers
and often are exceedingly beautiful
A pretty pattern shown some time ago
In these columns had as decoration
three very large butterflies worked In
outline and satin stitch. These were
arranged around the edges Of the apron.
Another butterfly formed the tiny bib.
All of the edges were buttonholed and
the embroidery was done in pale blue
working cotton.
Generally speaking, bibs are not to
be recommended, except in a case of
this kind, where they form an i'm
portant part of the design. There Is no
way OF fastening them up except by

a constant and prolific bloomer, but If

The Viscountess Folkstone is a

of these plants are in the Bourbon
class Of very hardy and continuous
