A DOLL’S BATH.
A real doll’s bath that will hold water! What little girl does not long to possess one? Although Christmas is still a few weeks away, it'is quite time now to be thinking about getting presente ready, even if sixpences aie not very numerous, and do not go very tar. This toy is quite-easy to make, and costs.very little. All that is wanted is one of those half-pint cardboard cartons shaped like a tumbler, that are used for holding lemon butter or honey. Draw a line with a pencil round the carton to the design of a hip bath, and then with scissors, cut round . the line and rub down the cut edges with sandpaper. Next, given the inside a thin coat of white paint, and when that is dry give it z another. Then paint the outside with two coats of a pretty blue, or any brightly coloured paint you like. If you provide a little celluloid baby, which will fit the bath, and a tiny towel made from a piece of rough white material with a selvedge, and add a very small .piece of sponge, and the tiniest piece of soap, you will have a complete toy that will delight any little girl’s heart. ,
