' . ..- - One- of the features of the-Christmas celebration Is, ths dinner, where , the menu 'may be as taste and the pocket book dictate; bat ths - setting - thereof demands a Christmasy suggestion. ' It is a pretty fancy to have a little tree, either pie n ted In a flower pot or heldV iu. place by crossed, pleoea ofwood. as we set up the children's tree. If it is too small to bold candles wtthout their tipping and dropping the wax. the candles may be placed In a ring around the tree. - It needs only a fsw of 'the smallest bright ornamente, not heavy enough to bear down the branches, and a goodly supply of shimmering tinsel. v, Aprom for Chriatmaa. . . 1 Dainty aprons for heme work or for thethtmbie bee are acceptable articles for Christmas gifts and adapt them selves to all sorts of occupations. They glvs a smart touch to the plain morn ing drees and are sufficiently attrnc- tlve to be worn In the afternoon. The girl who likes to pre pa re a little repast-in the chafing dish will also be glsd of one of these frilly trifles. One of the new styles shows bands cf embroidery crossing in front snd sndlng with a rosette of ribbon at the corners of the bib. Similar bands ars crossed on the apron front, but ran be emitted and still leave a sufficiently dressy little article. A - good office spron for the girl who likes to keep the front ef -her-sktrt snd blouse from contact with pencil dust snd Ink is made from two large, squares of linen or the soft toned, bandana handker chiefs. Merely ut out 'a' circle from the middle of the square, large enough to. admit of allpplng Ijt over the head, hem the edges of ths opening snd at tach the squsre cornet-wise to the belt In front. This forms the-bib.- The other square is also turned point wls, folding down ons conner, and sowing to tt a belt of the asms material, or a ribbon. This would be charming made of whit squares with colored borders. A travsWs spron msy sound odd, but It has been achieved and there Is no reason why we should not follow suit. This attractive article Is meant to be tied about one'g waist when the toilet Is being made. We know the unhandi ness of toilet accommodations In the sleeper. What a comfort to have ones hair pins, aosp and comb in a snug little pocket on the spron front.1 instead of having to chase them all about the wash room.
