10 Make
4 Doll Bell Lady.

Ii is often very handy to have bell
on the dining table. You can make it
ornamental as well as useful if you
dress it up a bit. Pad the handle with
cotton and cover it with unbleached
muslin. This forms the face. Use
small beads for the eyes and stitch of
red for the nose and mouth. Loops of
black or red wool form the hair. Make
a foundation skirt of buckram. tYou
will have to make it stand out full SO
that It does not touch the bell, or it
will interfere with the ring) Gather a
piece Of silk or lace for the skirt. Tack
it to the buckram. Gather a narrow
piece of lace for the cape collar. Finish
this quaint little doll bell lady with
loops and ends of ribbon at the neck.
