SEWING SCREEN AN ORNAMENT.
Pretty and Useful Article That Is
Easy to Make.


A pretty and very useful article is
the sewing screen. This may range in
height from three to four feet, and in
width from two TO two and half feet.
The screen consists Of two upright
pieces of narrow wood connected by
three short pieces of the same width
ono at the top, one at the bottom.
ano one in the middle of each panel
Over the back of each panel IS
stretched plain piece OF denim or
lowered piece OF cretOnne. Suppose
the screen TO be painted white and the
back pieces blue in color. Get Gre
tonne lowered in blue poppies, or
some such dainty design, and make a
large pocket for the top and bottom OF
one side of the screen by cutting q
strip a foot or more longer than the
width OF the screen and gathering 1t
to a tape an inch below the top.
Gather the bottom edge and sew 1t TO
the foundation of the screen, lacking
the sides to the wood with little brass
tacks. Long. almost headless. brass
nails are driven in a row into the
wooden bar across one panel OF the
screen, and few small hooks are
screwed into the top of the opposite
side. Spools OF various sizes are slid
over the nails, and the hooks are used
to hang up cmeries. scissors and little
things of that sort during the process
Of sewing. Smaller bags attached to
the scheen are for buttons tapes and
the host of small things one requires
while sewing, while a small pin
cushion hangs on hook at the top OF
one corner and necdlehook Is con-
veniently attached to the other. The
big pocket on the screen is for the
work itself and patterns.
If n carpenter makes the screen it
might be curved at the top, and the
little shelf attached to one side might
also be curved. This little shelf is
covered with plain blue, having the
edges of the cloth tackled down with
little brass tacks. Two little hinges
fasten it to the wooden cross bar, ana
a strap on one side, with loop at the
end, is hung upon a hook to support

Varied DESIGNS in Skirts.

The majority eff slsifts-Particularly
the walking skirts-are still elaborate
ly plated, but there are some few
smart models made with large num-
Der of cores cut SO as to give extra
width at the hem. One or the pref
test skirts seen this autumn Is laid
about the hips in one inch box plaits,
which, opened out, hang gracefully
and with good flare. There are an
indefinite number Of these models, all
more or less on the same order.
Some are made with very narrow box

four, while wide tucks are also used
