It is well known that experiments with paper and a pair of scissors
are often productive of the most wonderful results, but the design
reproduced in the accompanying photograph is perhaps one of the most
remarkable obtained under such conditions, and it has the additional
novelty of having been cut out by an old lady of feeble sight. The
original paper design was sent to us by Mr. M. A. Holmes, of 3, Alma
Road, Canonbury, and the reproduction presented in these pages is from
a photograph of it taken by us.
