York, when the latter. after a careful
survey Of his brothe:'s couutenance
said:

CASES FOR TOILET ARTICLES
indispensable .conveniences That
Keep Things in Perfect Sani- -
tary Condition.

Girls who realize the sanitary i'm
portance of keeping their toilet con-
veniences free from dust are using
cases specially designed for each ar
ticie. Almond meal and pulyerized
soap are kept in ornamental little por-
celain jars with perforated tops,
which. when not in use, may be so
closed that germs ana particles of
dust are absolutely excluded. Combs
are provided with rubber cases so that
even when damp they may promptly
be put away, and for hair brushes
there are cases, which, when opened.
form rubber mats. upon which the ar
ticles may be thoroughly dried and
summed.
A bathroom case which can be fold
ed by a traveller or attached to the
wall has IA rubber lined pockets. each
one equipped with a flap and button.
For pins there are several kinds OF
quantity shaped little cabinets. A
trunk model with three drawers for
toilet pins and a removable tray d.
vided for the various sorts of hair
pins and a miniature East Indian
bungalow containing three pin draw
ers are made of celluloid. leather or
lacquered wood Similar materials
are used for handkerchief and glove
cases, having lids equipped with
spring locks and padded backs. the
latter forming a combination basket
and pin cushion.

The uses to which ribbon may be
put are endless. Ribbons as dress ac-
cessories are a story by themselves,
and a highly interesting one. both

but we shall leave that question. how

ject in hand-ribbons for fancy work.
With a bit OF ribbon and a few
scraps of lace woman can easily
make the most adorable little bit OF
fancy work in an amazingly short
time. The color and texture of the
ribbon go a long way toward the
beauty OF the finished article.
Ribbon has many advantages oyer
silk for most fancy work articles-it
is easier to work on. as there are no
edges to be hemmed; the whole de.
sign may be used. where with silk
the figures may come out everywhere;
there is more variety in color and de-
