FANCY Work For Childrer1.

The children often come to YOU and
ask for something to do, something ia
make, for childs ideas are always
creative Here is some rainy day worl;
for busy fingers
A wall match holder can be made on
a foundation of cardboard cut ont in a
diamond, the upper portion Of which
is much larger than the lower. Fold
the two lower ends upward so rs IL
form pocket and cover the whole
with silk or any bright colored fabric.
Then bind with heavy cord and attach
a ring to hang it up by.
A hanging pincushion is also easily
made. Cut out two pieces about five
or six inches square from bristol
board and cover one with figured
material and one with plain, Sew
them together and then bend the
square thus formed into cornuc0pia
shape, with the plain side as the lin
ing. Bind with cord and leave loop
ton or with bran all the way to the
top and sew silk tightly over 1t. Cot
ton Is better, as bran Is rather heavy
A button pcnwiper may be made BY
cutting a circle Of bright colored silk
buttonholed TO cardboard or cartrdgE
paper, and then several other circles
of chamoiS a bit smaller. Fastcn al
together with 4 large ornamental but
ton Even the smallest child can make
this.

Hoops For Children.

The opinion is expressed by men who
have made study of exercises for
health that 1t is pity the skipping
rope and hoop have gone out of fash
ion for children.
1t is suggested they are more excel.
lent mediums for the physical devel-
opment than bicycles and roller skates.
The fact that small children are al
lowed 10 have bicycles and eonse-
quently make no use Of natures means
of progression is offered as an objec-
ton to them.
The skipping rope and hoop require
them to run and walk Young children
should be encouraged to do this as
much as possi'Ae, and always with q
springy step. They need to use their
feet and legs, and exercise that brings
these into play is beneficial.
