l. seen. having several shades combined
in mottled. checked mosaic and striped
mixtures. Sometimes the centers are in
direct CONTRAST to the rest of the button
in extreme colors, such as tango and
black. purple and green. blue and tan
and so on. and white centers are seen
with rims of any color. The tango or
orange-yellow background on buttons Is
a favorite for summer dresses, odd
blouses, etc. Cameo buttons have the
white head on a saucer-shaped ground of
blue, yellow. green. black or pink. Jet
trimmed buttons have red. green, old blue
or yellow centers. Red buttons will be
used on inexpensive summer frocks.
Small Jet buttons are much used on
vests and neckwear. Large crocheted
buttons in round and square designs of
one or two colors are used on coats of
heavy corded cottons. and on linen and
ratine dresses and suits. There are
many fancy stitches introduced in these
buttons.

A Folding Ironing Board.

A iron Is Of little use unless there is
an ironing board to go with it.
There is one. It Is small, and folds into
a dainty cretonne case. in which there
Is also an iron holder. And the best of
this compact little board is that it costs
only dollar. 1t Is only a foot and three
inches long. when it is opened to full
length. but almost any wrinkle can be
pressed out on board of that size, and
shirt waists and handkerchiefs can
easily be ironed on it.
