Silk and satin, fur and velvet had

and wolf; instead Of the warm glow
OF precious stones, flashed the cold

tan, cloak and loose trousers, one saw
breast-plate, loin guard and pelisse.
And here were faces euriously still
under the curved ear-pieces, and here
were bodies sheated In plumage and
the skins Of wild beasts.
Yet this was not enough. For to
the roll OF kettle-drums, the swirl OF
fifes behind quartian, dragon and

Daisy Party for Children.

Daisy Party for Children.
The daisy is procurable nearly all the
year round, either wild, cultivated or
from the florist, and children love 1t,
so with this in mind the party de-
scribed was given. At paper novelty
house large daisies were obtained
having just eight petals. The children
were given the yellow centers, and
the petals were neatly cut of and
hidden through the rooms. The child
who first found eight petals was given
tube of paste and told to paste them
back On to the center. These daisies
could easily be made at home, cutting
the center from yellow cardboard and
having the petals at least three inches
long. Award prize to the child who
first gets the daisy completed. Then
another good stunt is to have them
make daisy chain by giving each
child coarse needle and thread and
big bowl of daisy petals and see who
can make the longest chain in four
minutes.
Daisy in the Dell" is an enjoyable
game, and is played by forming the
children in a circle and having them
join hands, then choose one as daisy
picker, who runs around the outside Of
the ring, crying: Daisy in the Dell.
Daisy in the Dell, don't pick you.
don't pick you, l do pick you"
The player whom the picker"
touches must try to run clear around
the circle and back to his place be-
fore the daisy picker touches him. II
successful he does not have to be
"it," but II caught he takes the place
of picker.
The refreshments may be made very
attractive by having individual cakes
with daisies on top made with marsh
mallow petals and yellow frosting CEN
tiers, Stems and leaves are made
from angelica. Place cards may have
real daisies thrust through the corner
OF card, and serve the icecream In
halves of oranges; pierce holes around
the edge OF the halves and insert a
daisy in each opening. This makes
circle of daisies around the top and
the effect is lovly. Orange gelatine
capped with whipped cream may be
used instead of icecream.
