For warmth, these scarfs can be lined

In the world 10 make. paper butterflies
and the effect is remarkably good. Col
ored tissue paper Is the foundation.
Don't get crepe paper. 1t is too stiff for
the purpose and the butterflies made
from this paper Will not futter as well
as viii those made from ordinary tissue
paper.
The body OF the butterfly is made from
clothes pegs. with tive bent pins for the
'feelers." To cut the butterflies II is
necessary to make a pattern In this way:
Make a Finch square OF the piece of
to get the exact center and cut the wings
in the correct shape. beginning the cut
ting an inch and a half from the top
of the folded piece of tissue and cutting
II wing-sfIape up and round TO the mid
die. Then from the lower half. beginning
the cutting an inch and a nau from the
center and trimming down to the lower
lett-hand corner in a curving line. When
the paper is opened out after being cut
in this way II will be found that a very
good imitation of butterfly wings is the
result. Cut two pairs of wings, one for
the front half and cne for the rear half
OF the butterfly
The clothes pin is then brought into
use, the tissue paper wings being pushed
in to the fork of the pin and crowded
together in the proper shape. The folds
Of the paper will take care Of them
selves, the wings dropping gracefully In
place with a very little arranging.
II you wish to be very artistic In your
work you can gid the clothes pins and
decorate the tissue paper wings OF the
butterflies with regular butterfly mark

When Sewing on Braid.

Dressmakers experience considerable
trouble when they sew the braid on
around the bottom ola long skir.
Stitches will catch through to the righl
side unless the work is done with grea,
care. One clever woman has discovered
a way which will prevent the catching
through Of stitches. and the sewing pro-
crosses rapidly. She leaves an inch OF
two Of the hem open at the top and
slips a piece OF smooth cardboard. one
inch wide and four inches long, in be-
tween the cloth of the hem. This she
slips along under the braid as she sews,
and without fear of running the needle
through the cardboard, the braid is put
on In half the time ordinarily reQuired.

100 ONCE FAT WOMEN
10 CLIMB Pixies PEAK

One hundred women, formerly obese,
are to climb to the apex of Pixies Peak
from Ute Iron Springs. That is the pro-
gramme mapped out among the novelties
mer.
This idea originated with a Denver girl
Miss Marjorie F. Hamilton, who be-
lieves that physical regeneration should
manifest itself in the full exercise OF the
restored powers.
Miss Hamilton is known all over the
continent land indeed in pretty nearly the
entire world for her drugless treatment
or rat reduction, and Is a living example
OF It's efficacy. Thousands Of men and
women have experienced its beneficent
effects, and many of them have fallen
in love with the State from which their
redemption has issued. During many
traying the glories OF the Rockies to her
sisters, and her present plan. which
promises the fruit OF fulfillment. en-
bodies some new and interesting features.
What propose doing is this" Miss
Hamilton explained. II intend to induce
one hundred ladies. who have become
slender through tho use of my drugless
treatment of obesity reduction. to come
to Colorado during June or July. We
shall go from Denver to Colorado
springs In special train. The first num-
Der on our chart viii be a banquet In
the Garden of the Gods, and II is my
purpose to have a camping party made
up to sleep among those titanic boulders
that night. Early the next morning, we
shall board the electric car for Manitou
and then proceed TO Ute Iron Springs. al
the foot OF the famous Peak. This point
is substantially 6.000 feet above sea level
and the crest of Pixies Peak slightly ex,
ceeds 1000 feet. We shall start up the
trail shortly after 6 O'Clock. and believe
by nlghtfafl. we, shah be at the top. OF
course. climatic conditions alter a great
yards and high winds, and other disa-
greeable things. But / see no reason
why we can't make 1t.
II have figured that these women on
the average, have lost forty pounds
weight That Is a matter Of two tons
loss for the 100 ladies. Some will be
girls: others matrons.but we shall take
