A bag of muslin, linen or perhaps chintz
should be made the required length

Tortoise shell umbrella handles are
now much in vogue. and the girl for

Unless the table or stand is of
especially handsome wood the cover is
now generally attached firmly to the
top instead of being left loose to fall
Off or drag down at one end on the
least provocation. In city, where
dust collects so quickly, 1t is well to
make one or two fine lawn or dimity
covers that may be taken off every
few days If necessary and washed.
In this case the under cover should
be of fairly deep shade of pink or
fine sateen or silk, so that it will
show through prettily. In putting on
the cover the rough edge of the
material should. of course be turned
in beneath the tacks, while a band
of ribbon for of braid will give a
more finished look to the table.
For everyday wear silver hatpins are
very popular. They are in many
shapes, some having long pentagonal
or octagonal heads. others round and
hat others in cubic form, etc. Most
attractive are those with chased de-

silver pins set with stones, round Jade,

hogany hanging closet doubly at
tractive 1t should be completely
lined inside with either silk or. sateen
or perhaps chintz to correspond with
the hangings of the room in which 1t
stands. Nor Is it at all difficult task
to line a wardrobe in this way. some
brass headed nails. hammer and the
necessary amount of material being the
little time and patience for the labor.
Top. lower shelf sides and back OF the
wardrobe must first be measured to
determine the quantity of material to
be bought. The sateen may be tackled
on either perfectly plain all around or
slightly gathered. In case 1t is put on
somewhat full 1t will be necessary 10
first run the material on piece of tape
at each end like curtain and tack this
tape to the wood at each end. One ad-
vantage In this method Is that IL de-
sired the material can the more read
lily be taken off and washed or laid
away during. the summer, when not in
use
After the rough wood has all been
covered the next consideration is the
bar and clothes hangers.
The bar should have wound about 1t
smoothly and tightly piece of ribbon
or else strips of the material with which
the wardrobe itself is lined The hang
ers must then be all prettily covered
with ribbon of the same shade as the
color scheme of the rest of the room.
For gowns and waists of perishable
material, like chiffon or lace, the stuffed
hangers made of three inch ribbon filled
with cotton wadding. the hook part of
the hanger being wound about with
narrow ribbon, is best, while for coats
or plain shirt waists the brass hangers
with the metal simply covered with
narrow ribbon binding are best. as

WiHAr becomes of the lost pins in
w the world has been question Of
the ages, but where the numbers
of lost pocket handkerchiefs go is
problem almost as mysterious. In the
case of the latter, however, II will be
found that If one is willing to
take the trouble of keeping a special
handkerchief bag in which each soiled
handkerchief is placed and on Monday
morning, when this bag is sent below
stairs. a slip of paper is pinned to it
with the number of handkerchiefs in
closed carefully written out, invariably
the same number will be returned.
Even If one or two chance to be miss

cover that they have been mislaid
somewhere in the mysterious regions of
the laundry and they will be quickly
returned.

course they are much less expensive

But this is not the only kind of

she should choose a table with legs

carved claw feet

has an old mahogany bureau with the
curving lines of so many of the old
bureaus 1t would be better to select a
table with similar lines. OF course a

Tiny ribbon bags are easily made and
filed with the perfume. which is
sprinkled between folds of cotton wad-
ding. A bag should be attached at
each corner of the closet, and still
smaller bags are tied on each hanger.
Even the most ordinary oak ward
robe can be rendered most attractive
by covering the crude boards with this
soft sateen, which has also the further
advantage Of keeping out any dust or
smoke dirt that might otherwise sift in
through cracks or knots In the wood
and soil the dainty gowns.
Instead of plain white paper upon
wash stand shelves or in bureau
drawers a covering of sateen or silk is
infinitely more attractive. This sateen
should be of pink. blue, yellow, pale
green or whatever shade harmonizes
best with the room itself. One layer
of cotton wadding or double thick
ness of cheesecIoth, basted to the sateen
before it is tackled to the drawer will
make softer. more attractive surface
against which to place the lingerie and
thin bIouses. Not only the bottom but
the four sides OF a drawer as we'll
should be covered if the effect is to be
altogether perfect There should be

or lavender from tiny ribbon scent bags

is used in the wardrobe.

if it is not too large a white sateen

not hard to tack on. OF course, the

it is astonishing how much space can

clever arrangement of bars. hooks and

NF the old fashioned mahogany
\ tables the most interesting and
the one girl OF today is most
proud TO own is a Martha Washington
sewing table. The distinctive feature
OF this table is the box or pocket on
each side to hold large pieces of work
or materials. The center part Of the
table has two or three shallow drawers
IN which one keeps scissors, thimble,
spools and all the little things used in
sewing: At each end of this center
part the wood goes out IN octagon
shape, forming a deep box with cover
on hinges.
This table may have either four
straight legs or a center support with
a broad base in colonial design. In
some the support is q column and in
others a heavy curved piece OF the

little square tables are quite plain and

One great convenience In any sewing

The sewing screens are IN many
ways the greatest comfort a sewer
can have. for everything is ready
to use the moment it is wanted. They
are made with either two or three
panels. covered on the outside with
brocade. cretonne or some such firm
material. The covering may be fast
ened on with brass headed nails or fin
ished with a gimp. On the inner side
are the various pockets and straps to
hold the articles used in sewing.
The pockets are made of the same
material as the outer covering. put on
with a little fullness, and an elastic in
the top. They may be of any size one
chooses. On the middle panel of a three
panel screen or one side of a two panel
is a little wooden shelf. fastened with
chains at the outer corners. This folds
up when the screen is put away and
hangs in horizontal position when in
use, serving as a table TO put things
