Large Crown 8vo, cloth. 6/- net.
How to do—how to make practically everything a girl can wish, outdoors and indoors, winter and summer! There is not a girl in this country to-day between six and sixteen who would not feel tremendously richer and happier for a copy of this book—it is a liberal education in itself. Hockey; lawn tennis; croquet; swimming, rowing, sculling, golf, hopscotch, dancing; camping; gardening; sketching and painting; stencilling; architecture; keeping pets; palmistry and fortune-telling; model theatres and plays; dolls’ houses; binding; raffia work; knitting and netting; crocheting; sewing; indoor games; sweet and drink making; how to make countless articles—so the list goes on almost unendingly, amusement for hand and brain. There is no better medicine for “grumpiness,” “dumps,” or that general fed-up and run-down feeling—a dose taken frequently between meals will keep a girl in good health and spirits.
