LAI)I]<3.<!~â€"The Fall Fair will soon he on. and it’s high time you started to make a rug, patch a quilt, work a few nice buttonholes or darn a pair of socks. The girl who can darn socks without leaving lumps is a real jewel, and the art of darning should be class- ed as an accomplishment. It’s an aw- ful handy thing, too, for a girl to make a good loaf of bread, good light bread-«not the heavy stuff that drops like a bullet into a person’s digestive I machinery. It isn’t a sin for a girl to ‘ know how to play a piano, tune a Jewsharp or paint a nice landscape. That’s all right, but there’s nothing like the girl that can make good pan- cakes and sew on trouser buttons, and polish the glassware, and shine up the silverware, and prune the bur-docks in the back yard. There’s no discount on a girl of that kind.
