En- route to the South Pole is found

Pretty Conceits in Pillow Slips.

such a pretty array of pillows the

the Cleveland Plain Dealer, was a tan
linen with a dragonfly in cutwork in
each of the four corners. The center
was plain. Showing under each dra-

Of the same shade as the linen. The
edge of the pillow was without orna
ment of any kind. Yet another tan
linen pillow was worked in leaf
brown conventional design, outlined
in darker shade Of brown.
A burlap oblong pillow in very dark
brown was embroidered in brilliant
red poinsettias. A green silk bengal
inc pillow that deserved a more pro-
minent point of vantage, was en-
broidered in heavy sprays of golden
rod formed by large French knots.
