outside, and around it the wreath is
placed while baking. When dough is
light take it on well-foured board and
roll and pat until all air bubbles are
broken, using only enough -four to en-
able you to handle. With rolling-pin
and Toured hands form into strip
about one inch thick, seven inches
wide and as long as is required for
the wreath. Brush the dough with
one-fourth cupful of melted butter,
then strew on the filling to within one
inch of either edge. Now draw one
side of strip over to about the middle
of filling; then bring the other edge
over to the middle of the roll, tapping
a little uneven. At this point begin
to draw the strip on the tin sheet,
place the round tin in the center and
gently push the dough around the
Tapped edge on outside. Now join the
ends so as to prevent the filling from
oozing out, and see that the wreath
has uniform thickness. Let stand
about twenty minutes In warm
place, then with a fork make slight
depressions along the outer edge two
inches apart, being careful not to
break the dough. Bake in a moderate
oven until a golden brown. Make an

fluffy curls caught lightly to the back of
the head and hang jauntily on to the
nape of the neck, giving very beauti-
full contour to the profile
Another classic type is shown in draw
ing No. 2, the hair being slightly waved
and arranged in strands that follow
graceful curves to the crown of the
head, where they are caught into
loose knot.
The Juno
Perhaps one of the prettiest and
dressiest coiffures is that known as the
Juno. Illustration No l. The hair is
banded with a gauze scarf into a soft,
almost fiat pompadour, the scarf hold
ing it in place and giving trim shape
to the top of the head. A cluster of
saucy little curls are pinned to a small
mound, which in turn is adjusted to the
crown of the head Another cluster of
curls escapes just below the right ear.
If one be fortunate enough to possess
abundant hair the artificial curls may
easily be dispensed with and a smaller
mound used.
Of more studied and conventional ar
rangement is the one shown in drawing
No. S. The hair is first waved and then
slightly puffed about the face, being ar
ranged on the crown and down the back
of the head in double twist, entwined
with pearls and finished with curls.
