My head is swimming with lace doilies! Headlines from these pages include:

• Smart Accessories for the Summer Wardrobe
• Hardanger for the table – Embroidered in one color (oh my)
• White Embroideries for the Bride’s chest – a collection of useful linens
• A Fitted Piano Scarf with an elaborate Crochet drop
• Smart blouses for all occasions
• Cool muslins for the hot weather
• A Luncheon set made entirely of tatting – It is possible to make centres of Linen
• Collar Bags and Scarfs in Filet – Unnecessary but nice to have
• Block Printing and its application

Notable ads on these vintage magazine pages included:

• Coca Cola
• Iced Postum (tea)
• Campbell’s Ox Tail Soup “Just like finding money!”
