The friend who is deToted to piny
pong will be amused to find among his
or her presents on Christmas morning
the funny little figure shown in the
ketch. The body of the Chinaman Is
a sausagelike bag
stuffed with saw
dust or emery
powder. His robe
is of flowered silk
lined with plain
silk like that
which appears on
the bands. Ills
head is a celluloid
pingpong ball,
upon which fea- axa pincushion
tures are drawn with india ink or
painted with water colors. His cue is
made of horsehair, which is glued to
the top of his head. The head itself
Is glued to the body. Pins and needles
ore to be fastened in the robe.
Another fancy for pins is the doll
pincushion. Choose an. ordinary china
doll about five inches in height, with
movable arms and legs and a sweet
face and plenty of pretty curly hair.
Dress the dainty little lady in her long
clothes. Four strips of fine white flan
nel 2 inches wide and 8 inches long
must be carefully buttonholed round
the edges, then firmly fastened round
the baby doll's waist. Into these are
placed needles, white pins, black pins
and safety pins. Then comes the
baby's dress, which is made of two
Btrips of dainty ribbon about 3 inches
wide and 10 inches long one strip for
the front and one for the back, held in
position by baby ribbon. It is hung
up by a loop of ribbon.
