A pleasing occupation for the ver- anda these days is the decoration of bedroom towels. Soiling does not harm them as it might a finer piece of work accidentally left in the dust, and it is industry that calls for little skill. Scalloping the hems in button hole stitch will add daintiness to a plain towel and the design can be quite easily marked by using the end of d spool of cotton and a pencil. Monograms or simple conventional figure may be embroidered above the hems if within the skill of the worker. The buttonholing alone, however, is pretty.

An attractive way to embroider the initials on a set of tablecloth and nap kins to use with mission or craft fur niture Is to place the letters one above the other and inclose them in a square shaped medallion: open a little on both sides, says an expert needlewoman. These letters should
 be square in shape and simple in de- sign, and are to be well padded and worked solid. The effect will be very good with the plain style of furniture.
