as foolish as it would be to commence
to add up a column Of figures without

For the holidays there are some
things that are always the order of
the day, certain gifts that bloom per-
ennially. like the evergreens and holly
that crown the glory of the passing
year ut Christmas time. Among them
aprons of pretty material. small
enough to be dainty, that are made
for serving and sewing. The serving
aprons do more than dress up the
morning or afternoon frock in which
the hostess or her aids. serve her
guests, for they express n pleasure in
serving. The little sewing aprons are
a convenience and protection. Their
prettiness makes them a JOY.
The shops are showing many Of
these little belongings for home wear
this year. They are made Of all the
fine, sheer cotton goods that are used
for lingerie or midsummer dresses,
that will stand laundering and Occa-
sionally quaint apron in silk lends
the mind back to those yesterdays
when they were priced possessions Of
our great grandmothers. But the
modern woman seems to want every
thing made of washable stuffs.
