Which kiss'd it like a wine-cup,

The loftier they uplifted me;

The foam which broke around
me, and pursued
My track like a sea-bird.

TO MAKE: Start by making the pleuts. Measure three inches from the placket towards the front and take up a 14-inch pleat; leave an inch space and take up another 14-inch pleat.
Now measure 21 inches front the placket towards the back and make two one-inch pleats with an inch space between each. This completes one, leg, so now pleat the other leg to match.

VASES IN TIERS
IN order to make the most of a display of flowers in your room
a vase having several ters may be chosen.
These new vases are generally made of off-white pottery. The front portions of the bowl are low enough to accommodate short Rowers while the higher parts of the
vise are deep enough to hold much taller blooms. The whole of the vase can, however, be hidden beneath a mass
པ༣
of flowers which look most artistic even when achieved by women whose Bower arrangements are not usually so successfial.
Another helpful idea which makes floral arrangements less difficult is that of using short lengths of wire among tralling plants, or greenery in order to give themi an artistic
curve,
The trails are wound around thei wire, which, of course, should be rendered as nearly invisible ng is possible.
