Hearth and Home

Browsing my antique magazines, I thought this would be a suitable image for today. Mary Anne gave me a big box last month and I am savoring each one.



Hearth and Home is packed with ads...many pertaining to ill health
Bed Wetting the remedy is better than spanking
Gallstones, killing millions
Goitre, can be cured
He stopped Whiskey, an odorless and tastless treatment
Asthma relieved or no pay
Fat Conquered by Hollywood doctor......

its a relief to get on to



the October 1923 issue of Needlecraft magazine.
I learn something from every issue, I now know what lattice lace is (its knitted) and Cluny-Crochet. Did you know that a lady is judged by her handkerchief?
I'm not sure what linen straps in Filet-Crochet are for, and I would like see and feel some surf satin.
