CENTBEPIECES FOE THE THANKSGIVING TABLE.
It is a very pretty idea to have the centrepiece of the Thanksgiv-
ing table something suggestive of the harvest season. A pumpkin
hollowed out and filled with fruit makes a pretty centrepiece; this is
even more attractive when the pumpkin is cut out to represent a
basket with a handle and is then filled with fruit.
Several sprigs of chestnut burs arranged artistically in a pot-
tery dish make a very pleasing centrepiece; use bits of wire to fasten
on the burs which may have fallen off, concealing this makeshift as
well as possible behind leaves, etc.
Bed oak leaves and beautifully colored maple leaves, which have
been pressed, make charming little mats for individual salt dishes
or nut dishes.
