GIFTS OF A PERSONAL SORT.

Christmas Tokens With an Individual
Touch That Are Easy to Make.
Gifts having a personal touch have
a value in many instances exceeding
those purchased outright. There are
numerous useful and fancy articles
which can be made ineXpensively with
little labor. For example, to an ordi-
nary soft sponge at the top a be
sewed a celluloid read of a baby doll.
The purpose Of this is for the amuse-
ment of Il baby while in the bath.
The housewife often finds the polish
ell surface Of a piece Of furniture is
whitened by the water that SO often
cannot be entirely wiped from a flow
er vase. To meet this need there can
be made a vase mat. This is made
from window or plate glass cut five to
eight inches in diameter. Directly be-
meath the glass Is a layer Of c%retonne,
Dresden and tapestry effects being
preferred. A piece Of felt under the
%rreto1ne is pasted to the glass as a
protection to the wood surface. Around
the edge Of the mat is pasted one inch
gold braid as q finish.
For the wOman who carries money
or jewelry there can be made a gar
ter pocket in black or colors. It Is
an ordinary piece Of elastic covered
with p slightly gathered satin ribbon
as casing. To this is suspended by two
narrow ribbons of four inch square an
envelope pocket Of satin or brocade
with a clasp fastening. On those in
the light colors ribbon roses are used
as trimming, while on the black ones
rhinestone buttons serve this purpose.
10 the wooden shoe tree. of which
the heel and toe are connected by a
steel strip. a feminine touch can be
added by inclosing this strip in a cas-
ing Of n inch satin ribbon slightly
gathered. This is pasted to both heel
and toe to keep it in place. while in the
center is placed Il rosette bow.
Guest towels are usually given in a
set of two and can be either plain and
llemStitched and embroidered with one
or more small initials.

All For the Boys and Girls
TOSSING CHECKERS.
An Interesting Amusement For Which
Sides Are Chosen.

oiQSS AFe SnOSeH.
Select a number of small fruit bas-
kets. all the same size. and have Il box
of checkers handy. Suppose YOU have
five baskets. ON the bottom of one
mark %. on another u. on two ). ana
on the other O.. Place the baskets in a
row on the floor. Choose sides. giving
one side and the red ones to the other.
one side lines up about ten feet away
from the baskets, the leader giving
each player a checker. If there are
any left he keeps them and has the
right to throw them after the others
have all thrown.
Each mi in turn throws his checker
into any basket. trusting to luck that
it falls into 4 basket with a number on
it. When all have played the leader
turns up each basket to see it's mum
Der and counts the number of check
ers in it. Ii there are two in basket
No. 20 it counts forty, ii three in a
No. 5 basket it counts fifteen. Any
number in basket 0 count nothing.
Then the score on that side is added
up. and the number of checkers that
fell outside the baskets is deduced
from the total. The other side then
lines up and plays as the first did. The
order of the baskets must be changed
occasionally so that no one knows
which is which. The game continues
until a certain number-3OU or 800 as
previously agreed upon - has been
reached. The sid scoring that num-
Der of points first is victorious.
