Dainty Paper Dolls.

One can make beautiful little paper dolls by taking pains and time for the work. The gayly colored heads, arms and feet that are bought outright may be affixed to paper or cardboard bodies, find then the costumes may be separately prepared. Crimped tissue paper, in its lovelyshades, make a soft and fetching fabric with which to work. One may get up gowns with plaited ruffles, kilt skirts, puffed sleeves, revers and almost any of the present day styles, all of, which have been done in paper. Then a sun-bonnet is a possibility, too, and little hats and bonnets. There is almost no limit to the wardrobe, given tissue paper, glue and some knack in handling them, with a pair of sharp scissors for aids. I —[New York World.
