The idea for this popular wrap
around apron-frock came from Geor-
gia, and has been spreading rapidly
around the country. 1t is simple to
make, and it's edges are all bound with
bias tape. The ties at the waist make
overwhelmed maneuvers unnecessary.
There is certain flavor of style in
the nodded lines and subtly full skirt.
All the materials can be bought for
less than a dollar.-Woman's Home

when he is on the water, or to abstain
from the flesh Of some animal, and in
return the spirit binds himself to take
care of the child.
