The Old-Time Sampler.

Already, the threatened reversion to old-fashioned simple ideas and customs which we hear prophesied on all sides, has shown itself in the present fad for working samplers. Sometimes the old-time designs are used and often one copies her great grandmother’s sampler, if Bhe is lucky enough to find it to copy. The children and older girls too are all working samplers to frame and hang on the wall like grandmother did.
