Stuffed Cotton
Toys Are Made
From Feed Bags

To the fairly long list of child
hood toys so beloved that they
have become imperishable, the
Well-stuffed cotton toy must be
added. The number of children
who have gone to sleep cuddling
a Raggedy Ann must now be
legion.
Cotton toys are in the bag this
Christmas. Made from handy cot.
ton feed bags, they'll make Dec.
rs more fun for any small child.
Cotton bag sizes range from the
10-pound sugar sacks to the 100.
pound feed bags. These bags
come in floral and conversational
prints, plaids, stripes and checks.
Easily available at bakeries,
grocery stores and feed dealers,
over 150,000,000 of these feed and
flour bags were snapped up by
women last year. In fact, women
have been known to buy mule
feed for the chickens in order to
get the exact print they want
for home sewing.
Upside-down Suzy, easily made
from three small cotton bags, is
really two dolls. She has two
dresses, two smiling faces, bon
net for the white face and a

Tables, under the Christmas
Tree, are welcome gifts for most
members of the family. A card

exactly to her liking. A luxurious

FANCY BOTTLES
DISGUISE YULE
GIFT COSMETICS

It's become. by now, a rule OF
thumb that no cosmetic dare be
a candidate for Christmas giving
while looking like perfume, CO.
logne, bath powder or lipstick.
One perfume, for example,
comes in a medal-shaped bottle
draped in 24-caret gold plate, sus
pended from a bright presenta-
ton ribbon.
Or there's wafer perfume put
up in a mother-of-pearl minia-
ture perfume compact with a
rhinestone center. It bangles
from a snake chain and becomes,
therefore. a bracelet.
Perfume is also available this
Christmas in solid form in a
gilded filigree perfume ball with
pin attached. to wear on a dress
or suit lapel. And there's even
perfume to burn, in an electric
perfume burner which is brand
new this Christmas. The burner
is in polished bronze and resem.
bles a miniature skillet. A separ.
ate heating element is on a foot
ed stand.
Soap, if it's IL cakes in box
and therefore one bar of frag.
rance for each month in the year,
is a gift which will appeal to any
woman. Bland and hand-milled,
these guest size cakes are in a
white box with cover trimmed in
gold-and-white lace.
Then. there's a Christmas tree
cologne packed in hollyberries
and patterned with a white, etch-
ed tree. And there's cologne in a
white snow bell, festivly trimmed
in blue.
Stocking suffers include
stocking in glittering fuchsia net
with snowy fluff top and toe
which holds perfume essence, a
bar of hand-milled soap and a
tube of talcum. There's a lip
stick centered in a rocket made
of white marabou and tipped
with colorful, shiny foil. There's
also a black and gold pencil case
which holds a pip-stick at one
end and an applicator bottle of
perfume at the other.

SOMETHING USEFUL FOR THE FAMILY
r WELCOMED GIFT AT CHRISTMAS

Even Dad can be tickled pink
with a gift table if it's a hand
some sturdy chairside style that
will bear his current book OF
daily newspaper, a giant ashtray
and a reading lamp close to his
favorite chair.
Brother and Sister, busy with
homework, will be thrilled with
the thoughtfulness of gift desks
of their very own AS well as for
doing homework, Sister will use
the desks built-in bookshelves
for her favorite books and Broth.
er will use them to display his
priced model airplanes.
Many of these desks are finish
ed all-round and so can serve to
divide Brother or Sisters rooms
into sleeping and study sections.
There's nothing like a lamp, or
a pair of them, to keep the
CHEEKY glow of Christmas in the
house the year round, not to for
get to mention the glow of warm
appreciation in Mothers eyes.
If Mother has modern ideas,
surprise her with one of the flu
turistic styles of ceramic or me-
tai. If she's traditional-minded,
she'll consider it a fine treat to
receive a china, glass or brass
design complete with pretty
shade.
