BEGIN NOW TO MAKE
WILDFLOWER CALENDARS

A enterprising girl made $500 last
! Christmas by selling wildlower
calendars which she made at odd mo-
ments during the year. They were in
several sizes and designs Some she tied
with narrow ribbon, twelve to a calendar.
others three to a calendar; still others
were but single large ivy-green mount,
with group Of flowers and the calendar
for the whole year beneath. with time
ly verse. The higher priced ones had a
verse for each month traced in gold let
tering.
The representative flower for each
month was gathered in it's season. dipped
in a solution OF gum tragacanth and
water and arranged on the card. Over
the wet flower she pressed q sheet of
white paper. and above that another of
blotting paper. A moderately hot iron
was passed over the whole, and the blot
ting paper renewed as 1t became damp,
until all moisture was gone, after which
the card was put in letterpress or be-
tween the leaves of a book, heavily
weighted.
Prepared in this way the flowers and
stems adhere firmly to the card and re-
semble painting, all the natural colors be-
ing perfectly preserved. December and
January being without typical blossoms,
for the first card press sprig of cedar,
powder 1t with diamond dust and sur
round 1t with an oval frame cut from
silver paper; for the second press the

June. wild roses; July, daisies; August,
goldenrod; September. Wild asters; Oc-
tober, hops: November, ferns.
I Two weeks before Christmas they were
placed on sale in drug stores and art
stores. The selling prices were: Large
single cards at . cents each: beard
calendars at 81 each; 3-card calendars at
so cents each.

A VERY pretty set, consisting Of cap,
~ slippers and garters, is fashioned
from dotted net, embelliShed with
lace, ribbon and a delicate ribbon vine of
tiny pink rosebuds and leaves. The cap
is constructed entirely of dotted net, lined
with white chiffon and gathered onto a
plain straight band of pale blue satin
ribbon about an inch and half wide.
covered with heavy lace insertion, and
outlined with the rosebud vine. This
band extends half way around the cap
and is met by a frill of the net. edged
with lace, which finishes the back Of the
cap and produces a quaint Dutch effect.
Lambs wool soles form the foundation
for the slippers. The upper parts are
made of blue satin, covered with the net.
and finished with rosette of blue satin
ribbon, in the heart of which nestles
group of pink rosebuds.
The garters are plain, round and mar
row, made Of blue satin, covered with
net and ornamented with the rosebud
vine.
Almost every conceivable design Of all
over laces and nets are used for dainty
caps and muslins, cotton voiles, all-over
embroideries and various fancy cotton
cloths for the more substantial caps.
Ribbon floral decorations are extensive
lily used. On the more practical styles they
are arranged SO as to be easily detach-
able to admit of the caps being Numbered.
The dust cap style may be made from
scraps of lace and ribbon. To prevent an
untidy appearance from the lace falling
too much over the eyes, frill of lace
starts in back, which narrows until in
front it is only a ruche, and twist of
ribbon ending in rosettes at the sides, or
spray of chiffon roses softens the line
over the forehead.
The bonnet-shaped cap is quaint and
generally becoming. The little Dutch
bonnets are made of soft satin or crepe
de chine, sometimes covered with fine net
or lace, and even gold lace lined with
softly tinted satin is used.

One of the best methods of freshening

coat of tinsel The work requires little
skill or expense. The cards to be treated
should first be we'll cleaned. after which
the parts of the card to be ornamented

tinsel on the glued parts. Superfluous
particles may be made to drop off by
simply turning the card face down and
tapping it lightly. The work may be
easier by first making a stencil and then
applying the glue by means of that.
