Across Canada For the Spring Bride In Thirty ]-lours R d T t tat Air Sweets to the Sweet Any' little twist to make a shower different, just a new slant to the way the: gifts are presented to the guest of honor, is all that is needed to. make such an affair one grand success. "Sweets to . the sweet" provided the motif for, a very pretty affair given by a young hostess in ode of our Western towns last year. She asked:each girl to bring as her. gift something "sweet" for tho.trousseau, and, to wrap it, in so far as possible, to look like candy. There was really nothing at all un- usual about any of the gifts—they were handkerchiefs, sachets—lots of them, of course—doilies, guest towels, garters. But it was their wrappings that made them interesting. Hand- kerchiefs and other little flat things were, rolled and wrapped in wavey paper painted with .stripes to look like candy sticks. . One girl stuck a very dainty little powder puff on an orange stick and you would have sworn it was a lolly- pop. Of course, many of them were simply wrapped infancy candy boxes. A gat powder compact was covered with brow. paper and labeled A Mint of Beauty. One dainty handkerohief was folded around an oblong of card- board, wrapped' in tinfoil and then put into a sweet -chocolate wrapper. The gifts were all collected before the' day of the shower and packed in- to a large cardboard box.
