A bride in modest circumstances

add one tablecloth and one-half or one
whole dozen Of napkins (according to
the number in the family each year.
In this way the supply of table linen
is kept up. When the family is small

yard goods.
Napkins costing from two to three
dollars a dozen will match these
cloths. At the first price the napkins

inches, and very fair quality may be
bought for quarter apiece. Of

may be added and held in reserve for
use when company is being enter

the form of wedding present, but
four tablecloths and three dozen nap

In choosing table linen large de-
signs should be avoided There is
nothing more satisfactory in the long
run than the dot des. gn showing a

pattern can be followed so che mend

The linen must bear the initials OF

letters about two inches high, across
one corner three inches or so above
the hem
The napkins are marked in the
same way, the size of the letters being
reduced proportionately.
