Q.-Do you know how the
new wall paper portiers are
made? If you will tell us
how to make these am sure
you will oblige large num-
Der of women.
ONE OF YOUR READERS.
A.-This new art is simple
and enjoyable and promises to
become the handicraft fad of the
year.
A stock of vari-cOlOred papers
is the first necessity. Most attics
and closets will supply this. Old
sample books which wall paper
dealers have discarded will fur
nish excellent material. Papers
which contain the most color, gilt
and metallic luster are obviously
the most decorative.
The first step i'm the process is
to cut the paper into strips two
inches wide and eight or ten
inches long, and to trim off two
sides making a long pointed tri-
angle or penant. Next the paper
must be rolled as tightly as pos
sible over skewer or round
stick smaller than a pencil but
larger than a hat pin. The wind
ing begins with the two-inCh end

An matters of sentiment
many girls consider evasion per-
fectly fair. On the pretense of
not hurting u mans feelings, they
tell half truths. This Is most un-
just TO the man, for ii permits
him to plan his future on a false
basis. IL would seem obvious
that the man is entitled to know
the whole truth now. What kind
ness is there i'm sparing his feel
ings today, only to hurt them
much more ut a future time, when
he must finally learn of the de-
ception? .
