JUNK SHOP FINDS
Surprising Possibilities OF
DIamdated Mahogany.

Two ardent amateur collectors of old ma
hogany recently entered a shabby looking
shop together in search of a bureau of a
type they scarcely dared hope to find, and,
to the amusement of one Of the two, the
other pounced eagerly upon very dilapi-
dated chest of drawers and a bureau in
equally bad shape. and got them for 81 so
and s.. respectively. In response to the
query. What can you possibly do with
such junk?" she said:
You know ell those pieces you admire at
my house? Well, some were worse than
these. and I have done them over myself
on rainy days, only having cid car
penter come in for a few hours to put in
braces where needed. 1 have a regular
scraper that every hardware shop can sup

clever handiworker can easily reproduce
them.
An examination OF a piece of Chinese en-
bro;derv reveals numerous picture effects.
perhans Il is covered with butterflies.
cranes peacocks quaint little Chinese men
and maiden figures, or with some floral de-
sign against a rich background. Even
very small BIT will afford material enough
for a beautiful set of picture" accessories.
A nlain. heavy sateen of a rich, firm
weave is chosen for the bag, black and tan
being the staple colors, as the one throws
into relief the colored embroideries and the
other harmonizes beautifully with them
Gravs are also seen. and delicate pastei
shades are used for opera and slipper bags
for debutantes.
For practical purposes black satin makes
the most satisfactory foundation. A circle
is cut out of the face Of the bag, and the
edges are slashed and turned in neatly. A
figure or floral design or butterfly is
chosen from the embroidery, and this Is set
into the circle and glued into position. 1t
is then backed with heavy muslin, which Is
also glued into place. A cloth Is laid over
the backing and the picture is pressed
throw it into bass-relief. The iron must not
be too hot. for there is danger of melting
the glue and leaving snudge. The circle
is finished with a line of gliding applied
stencil fashion. II the work is done clever
ly the design appears to be woven into
the satin like a heavy brocade. A touch of
embroidery is sometimes introduced at the
top of the bag above the drawsuings. and
a miniature pagoda, lantern, or ivory ele-
phant ornaments the strings. The lining is
usually of changeable silk, harmonizing
with the predominant color of the en-
broidery. If the embroidery is in gold, in
stead of colors. the lining matches IT. and
nothing ricner than this in combination
with black satin can be imagined.
one of the handsomest combinations was
a black satin bag with an old blue and
green butterfly inset. The lining was of
changeable blue and green silk-mostly
green and the shade of jade stone The
black silk cords had suspended at either
side a single jade pendant capped with
brass Small blue and green circle insets
above the draw cords gave a decidedly
Oriental finish.
A combination card and coin case to
match the picture bag is considered es-
sential, as is also the papier poudre, and
the idea need not be limited to bags It
can be carried into the realm Of dress and
made to serve many useful purposes. a
black satin belt, for instance, with insets
of embroidery, would add a very smart
touch TO tailored skirt.
Nor are Chinese and japanese embroid-
cries the only ones that can be used this
way. Old silk brocades, such
stored away in many a cedar chest, may
supply charming insets.
