| The limit of modern utility seems to
be reached in the use of an old crochet
bedspread as the start for an evening
wrap, which was considered quite as
luxurious as another made with a crochet
square never before used for any pur-

The old bedspread had soft ivory
tint. 1t was lined with a bright satin
and bordered with fur. The result was
called stunning and it really was.
