Candle Shades

Jerry new and pretty candle shades
" are made in the simplest possible

wire circles-an umbrella-shaped affair.
with no angles whatever. The cover is a
circle of cretonne about six inches
bigger in diameter than is the frame.
Around the edge of this cretonne il
sewn a fringe of glass beads. which Is
heavy enough to hold down the cover
and to cause it to fall in graceful folds.
Another circle Is cut from the center OF
the cover just the size to fit around the
frame. The cover is then fastened at
the inside circle to the frame by bind
ing Of gold braid. The mica shade. OF
course, fits on the stand entirely indie
pendently Of the candle shade.
The great advantage of the shade lies
in the fact that, unlike most Of its kind.
1t need not be fitted to the frame. nor
are there seams to be finished on the
under side. Bead fringe may be bought
by the yard and wire frames are ex-
tremely inexpensive.
Should handsomer shades than Gre

light color. The fringe might then be

Single or Double Thread

r. MBROIDERERS are often at loss
to know whether to use a single
or double thread when working In
flo silks.
The rules that govern the use Of the
single or double thread are based upon
the general principle that the finer and
more delicate the work and material the
finer should be the thread.
Thus. on sheer handkerchief linen or
null. or for very small design on a
heavier fabric. use a single thread Of
flo throughout: otherwise the work
will look rough and coarse.
Sometimes. indeed. the thread is split
for the shading in the center. to give a
more delicate effect. This. however. is
rarely necessary. It is a fairly safe
rule. for large designs or heavy mate
rails. to use two threads OF flo. at least
for the outer edges. Frequently the en-
tire flower Is done in the double silk.
but quite as often the outer portions and
the foliage are worked with the two
strands. while for the shading toward
the center the single thread is used.
This treatment gives both greater rich
ness and depth to the work. besides fill

In using two strands of silk 1t is i'm

roughen and cut. Instead. draw out
from the skein two threads Of exactly
the same length, and thread the needle

Y VIRGINIA had I'VE workings given
" her at Christmas-all fascinating
creations Of Dresden ribbon or
pretty light-tinted silks. She wondered
what on earth she was going to do with
them. and was sorely tempted to lay
four Of them by in tissue paper until
next Christmas-but, then. she hated to
do that because she Is q girl who val
ues q gift, not for its intrinsic value. but
for the thought which prompted the CIV
ing. And would it be inopportune to tell
Of the lady with prohibition principles
to whom a kind neighbor presented a
Jar Of very fine branded peaches. and
who, in giving voice to her appreciation,
remarked, Il never did like peaches. but
do like the spirit In which they were

Well, to return to Virginia. She de-
cided, Of course, to keep the five work.
bags and to use every one Of them; now
she wonders how any girl has ever sur
vived the summer without at least. five
workbags-all In operation-and this IL
the way she has utilized them. She
