EXTENSION TO SHOPPING BAG.
'dea Of Practical Value That Will Be
WeIcomed-Idea Capable of
DEVELOPMENT.

A novel shopping bag is made in
exquisite leather with the usual clasp
and handle, but having an added
length that when the shopper starts
out with her bag empty is folded up
and clasped to the side of the bag.
After the regular supply of small pur-
chases has been made and the accu-
INFLATED samples threaten TO over
flow and burst al bounds the extern
sion side is unclasped without even
opening the bag. which becomes twice
its original size. Indeed, it would
hardly be straining point to consider
It. in its extended condition, a one
night bag. for II the finest Of night
dresses were used and the daintiest of
travelling helps they could all be got
in without doubt.
A look at these leather shopping
bags will show the clever woman how
the idea could be developed in broad
sash ribbon for fancy work bag that
would hold little or much in the way
Of embroidery. In making the ribbon
bag the buttoning up of the extension
side would have to be rather complete
three enameled buttons at least
would be required to hold the wide,
soft ribbon in place.

The new trick in wearing a petit
coat is to button it to the end of the
corset. In this way it does not inter
fere with the fit of the skirt over the
hips and back, and gives a better fig
ure. This is especially welcome news
to the woman with large hips who is
trying every trick to make them look
small even If they are not.
Ordinarily buttons are not used. as
they would show through. Glove
clamps are used instead. These can
be bought at the shops. as they come
by the yard and can be sewed to cor
set and petticoat without expert
knowledge. The petticoat is cut off
at shoe tops or anklets, according to
the kind of skirt it is worn under.

The best way to overcome scrawny
arms is to practice tensing exercises
many times daily. Stretch the arm at
right angles to the body, holding the
muscles very taut; clench the hand
and draw up to the shoulder. using as
much force as if lifting a heavy
weight. Repeat until the arm begins
to get stiff.
Massaging the arms with hot olive
oil for Is minutes night and morning
will also help to make them plump.

That night Lady Hawkshaw was at

The cushion dance was originally
an old country dance In triple time.
which was introduced into court at
the time of Elizabeth. The dance was
very simple. A performer took cush-
ion and after dancing for few min
utes stopped and threw the cushion
before one of the spectators. The one
so selected had to kneel on the cush-
ion and allow the dancer to kiss her.
After which he repeated the dance.
