Pope Leo XIII entertains himself -when at leisure, it is said, by snai'ing birds in the Vatican gardens. Lace waistcoats for smartening up dresses can be made by ladies for their own wear. There is a band of satin round the throat, with a pleating of lace above ; then the foundation and shape of the waistcoat is cut out in black net, and the lace fastened at the throat arranged full, and drawn in just above the waist, then slightly spread out below.
