A LEAF PEN-WIPER.

Your pattern for this must be a beech-leaf again,--a _long_ one this

time,--or you may trace the shape from the illustration. Outline the

shape as before, and from the model thus secured cut six leaves in

flannel--two green, two brown, and two red, or red, white and blue, or

any combination you like. Snip the edge of each leaf into very tiny

points, and chain-stitch veins upon it with gold-colored floss. Attach

these leaves together by the upper ends, arranging under them three

triply pointed leaves of black broadcloth or silk to receive the ink,

and finish the top with a small bow of ribbon.
