The Handy Girl.

There are some girls who have a perfect knack of fashioning the daintiest accessories from apparent!jr nothing save a few scraps of material and a yard or two of lace. One of the most fascinating little negligees was made by a clever girl who had. on hand an unusually large supply of handkerchiefs. Four of these bits of linen were joined together with strips of lace and a fine edging was run around the whole thing.
