Show , THE GIRL'S ROOM. No girl need spend a day in a room devoid of ornamentation. Almost anything that is a picture can be made attractive in Ihe girl's room. A little laste. a bottle of paste, an old magazine and a few se: s of silk will do much toward making a room ioi pretty. A beautiful picture was made by cli; , .ng from a magazine a pretty colored picture, pasting it upon a bit of silk rescued from the "piece", bag and binding the edges with black paper. The silk was soiled but the wrong side of it made uite as pretty a background as the right side would have done. Upon the door panels of this girl's room were pinned pictures and upon each window shade a copy of a masterpiece taken front a magazine. One young woman, more ingenious than many of her sisters found that her muslin window curtains cur-tains were giving out in places. Over one of the rents, after she had caught it together with fine thread, she hung a dainty calendar, over another was suspended a college flag. Two or three dance programs covered a third. "I can't have new ones." laughed the girl, "and where there's a will there's a way." The effect was really charming. Catholic Tribune. |
