little ingenuity and originality one
can evolve many splendid attractive
color schemes.
One novel decorative idea in
which the boys and girls can assist
is to make the room look like fairy
| land with flowers and real branches.
Have the children gather great
punches of branches and trees. Then
they can be kept busy cutting cherry
blossoms or any simple flower out
of crepe paper. The twigs can be
quickly inserted through the center
of the petals, or the flower can be
pasted onto the branch. Have some
blossoms separate and some in clus-
ters. Put huge punches of the
branches in every conceivable spot
above the picture frames, on the
hearth, in vases on the table, and
wherever you can find space for
them.
Some Of the blossoms can be
strung onto strings and draped
from the chandelier to the corners
of the room. Pretty hanging cur
tains of the flowers can drape the
windows and doors. You will be
amply repaid for your labor when
your task is completed.
CHRISTMAS TREES.
What Is Christmas without a
Christmas tree? The climax of the
day comes when the tree. is lighted

pan with scarlet paper, tie a big
flaring bow around the center, all
the pan with either real or paper
poinsettias. From the center of tho
flowers draw red ribbons to each
plate. Have the ice cups and place
cards decorated with the same flow
er. A table cloth of paper in poin-
settia design Is effective.
The candle shades are ornament
ed with small poinsettias and a big
bunch is suspended from the chan
delier.
A table for the children could
have for a centerpiece a small house
made of cardboard with a snowy
roof of cotton. Cut Santa Claus
and his sleigh drawn by six rein
deers out of red and black card
board. Suspend this with wires
above the house. Have a bank
of cotton around the house. In the
cotton have sprigs of evergreen.
The bon bons are in little sleighs
of cardboard, drawn by a pair OF
reindeer. For the place cards draw
four-inch snow man on a white
card, including plug hat, and cover
all in white crepe paper, except his
hat which Is black. Mark face in
ink. Paste snow man on card
sky inches. Put small strip Of
cardboard on back for stand.
For the sailed almonds use little
baskets of crepe paper with wire
handles. Cover with paper and have
a sprig Of holly on the handle. A
snow man in front of each place, il

holds a branch in his hand Of holly,
and wears a black cardboard hat.
His face is marked in ink. Snow.

together In some Of the nuts have
little surprises; a bright new coin,
a thimble or any small trifie. Paste
board trumpets are made of a horn
of cardboard covered with green or
red paper. Glue a circular piece of
cardboard to the lower end of the
horn and fill the horn with some lit
tie souvenir.
Home made drums, cornucopias.

paper; transfer pictures such as the
children use. can be used to decor
ate the outer covering. The boys
will like theirs the better If they
contain marbles, and She girls IL
theirs are heaped with jacks or
some dolls furniture.
Santa Claus should be at the top
most branch Of the tree. Dress a
doll in red crepe paper. Trim the
suit in cotton batting with small
pieces of coal for buttons. His hat
can be made of black mat board,
and his hair and flowing beard OF
white cotton.
THE CHRISTMAS TABLE.
Christmas spells hospitality. and
the Christmas dinner will be all the
more enjoyed by the family and
guests If there is something about
it to distinguish it from other days.
Plan a table that Is unique in it's
decorations and that will draw
forth expressions of surprise and
ordinations Of admiration when 1t
is seen bedecked In all its holiday
glory.
A table that is typical Of the day
and that will stand out in the minds
of your guests has for a centerpiece
the bright poinsettias. Cover milk

and viewed in all Its glory. A tree
that is hung entirely with silver
tinsel and light glass balls, is like
a shower Of silver rain. The pres
ents are attached to this tree with
clothes pins covered with silver foil.
The gifts are wrapped In silver
paper. Silver bells tinkle from the
branches and silver stars of paste
board covered with silver paper are
attached with wires to the top Of
the tree.
Another tree is festooned with
birds and butterflies in a multitude
of colors. The butterflies are OF
spun glass, while the birds are OF
celluloid. The tree can stand in a
waste paper basket or an immense
flower pot. A heavy weight should
be placed at the bottom to steady
the tree and the tree should be tied
on with a stout cord. Pack the
basket with moss or green tissue
paper.
A tree that is decorated at an ex-
pense of less than two dollars Is
trimmed with articles that can be
made at home. Hang chains on the
boughs made of strips of red and
green paper pasted to form rings.
One link Is slipped through the
other until you have chains the de-
sired length. Popcorn wreaths are
very effective. Sew each popcorn
separately with coarse white thread
on white hat wire and form into
circles. A yard OF tarletan will
make about twelve bags. Fill the
bags with goodies and sew together
with coarse worsted. Tarletan NIT
tens, stockings, and pitchers can be
filled with nuts, raisins, candies and
figs. Clusters of gilded nuts are
suspended from the branches with

in preparing for the blithesome, mer-
ry Christmas day. Who doesn't be-
lieve in Santa Claus at this season
of the year? Though Santa Claus
may come in an automobile or an
airship, though he may find steam
radiators instead of chimney, and
the tree may be illuminated with
electric lights instead of ablaze with
candles, still he is welcomed just as
hilariously> and with the same en-
thusiasm as when he arrived in his
sleigh driven by his sturdy rein

Enter into the spirit of the fes-
tival with the enthusiasm of youth.
Try to have each succeeding Christ
mas, even more than the previous
one, emphasize the gladness of the
day.
Christmas should be a home day
in which old and young participate
alike. Decorate the house with gar
lands of evergreen and holly; use
an abundance OF the vivid scarlet
berries and the Christmas flower,
the poinsettia. Have the rooms a

All busy women know the value OF

In the matter of letter writing many
women are great procrastinators. They
persistently leave important letters un-
answered until the last possible mo-
ment, and then have to write hurried
note. often forgetting to take up i'm.

The best way to do is to have one
day or evening set apart for weekly
letter writing. One woman reserves
Tuesday morning for this purpose, and
she allows none but the most press

DOES AWAY WITH THE CORSET
Experiment Of French ModIste That Is
In the Nature Of a Sartorial
Revolution.

A very famous French modiste has
started revolution of sartorial or
der by making gowns which are to be
worn without any kind of a corset
But" exclaims the well-dressed wom-
an. "it is an impossibility to wear such
a gown! The figure will appear loose
and untidy, the gowns will not fit, and
the appearance will be ruined by such
a preposterous fashion,"
Nothing of the sort. The gowns
are veritable gems of beauty in which
the models look more chic than In the
styles which need a corset. Now, how
is this accomplished?
The modiste who is responsible for
this fashion, being an artist as well as
a dressmaker, set about to study the
natural lines of the feminine figure
with the purpose of evolving fash
ion which need not confine Its grace
and beauty. All the gowns hang from
the shoulders and with none of the un-
graceful bulkiness which marked
gowns of this kind years ago.
