McCojwell iaL C1ffc1j TRIMMING THE TREE Bow to Decorate One In n Novel Fashion at a Small Cost Less than 2 properly expended will decorate the Christmas tree beautiful ly in a novel fashion and give no end Of pleasure says the Pittsburg Press The cfticf tiling to consider is the col or and effect The materials employ ed are really secondary There will of course be a cobwebby mass of loose silver tinsel coiled in and out and over the tree in a bewildering labyrinth and strings of popcorn holly berries and cranberries Tradition de mands their use in connection with the novel ornaments Small and inexpensive souvenirs -of Japanese lanterns and opened para sols will give a unique touch of ori ental color to the Christmas tree From every available tip tiny bells hearts stars guitars banjos and paper ma cue animals such as rabbits donkeys and reindeers should be suspended If desired the animals may be of cake as molds are made especially for this purpose The stars and hearts may be cut from bristol board and given a coat of glue then dipped in mica or metallic flock Small red and green apples may be used to good advantage for decorative purposes by sticking them with tiny crape paper flags They should be sus pended from the boughs byv braids of red white and blue paper Walnuts hickorynuts peanuts pine cones etc will help the decorative scheme also if they are gilded The best thing to accomplish this result is smalt which is kept by paint dealers and comes in gold and silver and all the metallic shades First dissolve a cake of glue in ioiling water place a tack in the end c the nut or object to be immersed dip in the liquid glue roll in the smalt and dry Later when ready to suspend from the tree attach bright red ribbon to the gilded tack and hang in some of the places that look bare Another novelty which will please the children is to take the shells of the walnut split so they will be intact remove the meats gild or silver the empty shells then place a tiny doll candy or motto inside and tie with bright colored baby ribbon It is almost impossible to have too many objects for trimmings as the tree is like a yawning chasm hard to fill Little Chinamen dangling by their cues and Japanese lads and lassies peering furtively out from among green boughs will create a great deal of amusement for the occidental boys and girls whose eyes are eagerly fixed on the tree Milkmaids Jack Homers brownies gnomes and fairies will also be an attraction and they may serve as bonbon receptacles as well Hotv to Slail Christmas Gifts In mailing Christmas gifts have the package weighed by some responsible person place the exact amount of post age needed upon the parcel and in nine hundred and ninety nine cases out of a possible thousand your package will reach its destination safely and promptly In addressing the package write the name of the person who is to receive it in ink spelling both the city and state and do not abbreviate Place your name in small

stirring all the time the figs suet almonds flour mixed with the baking powder flavoring and lastly the whites of eggs beaten very stiff Turn it into a covered pudding mold filling it three quarters full Steam for three hours Serve with a pudding sauce How to Make n Xovcl Paiicrivelsrlit Here is a novel and inexpensive Christmas gift for a business friend Take five walnuts make a hole in the end of each and dig out as much meat as possible With a tape needle push a narrow ribbon through each one of the shells connecting them together and fill them with melted lead poured through the holes In the end and tie the ribbon ends in a bow It will be appreciated by a business friend who must leave the oflice or desk with pa pers lying loosely about How to Mrke n Savory French DInIi Liver puddings
