the third day stick them on hat pins and
leave them to dry for several days. turn

method Of forming that is described
above for rose beads. They must be care

Pretty beads are made from china ber-

vessel with a pint OF lime and plenty OF
water. Let them boil briskly for two
in a large pan Of cold water. Wash
thoroughly, rubbing WIN until they are
smooth. Rinse in fresh water and string

cellent for threading beads. as the beads
do not cut it as they do ordinary thread.

make acceptable Christmas gifts. and

Presbyterian, Baptist and few other
societies fell heavily into debt this
spring, and are now uniting in plans to
secure funds to pay of the same.

plans are more hopeful within the past

years at least. One of them. speaking
