started of carrying about ones own
little drinking glass. Travellers have
long done this. but it is only Just now
that they have come into use about

in your shopping bag and to transfer
It on matinee days to your theater bag,
SO that when you are consumed with
thirst you have only to take 1t out and
get 1t filled to drink freely without fear
of contamination. Fascinating little
cups come for this purpose either in

silver. of the telescope variety, which
shut up and slip into simple small

DAMAsk LINEN.

Damask linen is the best quality for
the table centerpiece. 1t has an even
ness that is beautiful, flrmness that
is durable, and singular snroothness
of weave, owing to its round threat,
that allows the working cotton to
draw through it with very desirable
ease. II here is doubt in the mind OF
the worker, let her satisfy herself as
to the difference by trial of several
other qualities. There is stiff and
"well-dressed" linen whose glossy
surface shows every needle Prick, and
In which the needle and cotton, pass,
ing through 1T, leaves distinct hola.
This makes 1t difficult to embroider
