Pincushion Pillow.

OF the odd sofa cushions in certain
girls boudoir her 'fancy-work cush-
ion' is the oldest. It looks like an
ordinary brocaded cushion, but when
it Is examined on the wrong side flap
is seen. This, when opened, discloses
a pocket. In the pocket are scissors,
needles, skeins of silk and thimble.
There is no danger that visitor who
sfops herself down heavily upon this
cushion will arise suddenly and shrek
"Ouch!" You see, the needles and
scissors are on the under side of the
cushion and the filling is thick. .
