The tallest of the three candles has
n shade made of stiff pink linen
fabric and decorated with garlands
and figure cut from the cretonne,
pasted down. 1t is finished with
narrow silk fringe. A pair of candles
with candle-sticks fitted with shades
and holders make gift that everyone
enjoys. Glass or silver candle-sticks
are best for bedrooms. Brass and iron
ones are appropriate for living
rooms. The plain iron candle-stick
with rose-colored candle and fiuted
rose-colored shade is suited to mans
room.
The shade is made of smooth linen
| starched and fluted on an iron. 1t is
pasted on a cardboard ring at the top
and finished with piece of fancy
| rose-colored braid.
The dainty figured shade shown
| with the silver candle-stick is pure

One of the easiest ways to shade a
candle as well as one of the prettiest,
is to cut a disk of cardboard about 8

of cretonne edged with bead fringe,

The bag in Fig. may be made eth

handles are made of embroidery rings
wound with narrow blue ribbon. The
upper part of the bag is gathered over
one-half of each ring and the fulness
at the ends is also gathered into small
rings having one and half inch diam

touch.
A double bag of linen ornamented
with embroidery serves as a re-
ceptacle for soiled handkerchiefs. or
other small accessories. 1t is wash
able and will last long time. Men
as well as women like these handy
bags. This is true of the little COM
tonne, crash or silk, with pinked fan

Where one does not embroider a
very pretty substitute is possible with
cut out cretonne flowers applied to
linen and stitched down with button

Cretonnes are SO attractive that they
have inspired much designing of ar
ticles for personal use and house dec
grafton. Recently linen crash and
flowered cretonnes have become more
popular than any other fabrics for
tasteful and inexpensive fittings and
furnishing. Certain patterns have
been featured for living rooms and
ings that they take precedence of ev-
erything else. They are bright and
dainty and better still, they are wash
able. Crashes are embroidered in
fast color embroidery silks or deco
rated with cut figures of cretonne ap-
piled and button-hole stitched down.
There is a long list of attractive
things which are made of these dura-
BILE fabrics. Among them the dressing
case sets. which cannot fail to please,
are among the least costly and most
effective of Christmas gifts. They are
acceptable to either men or women
friends.
The flowered cretonnes are used for
covering boxes made to hold handker-
chiefs, gloves. neckwear, cravats and
wells, and the large boxes for hats
and shirtwaists. They are fine for
laundry bags, shoe and slipper bags,
pin cushions and pin trays. tea trays
and tea cosies. Dresser scarfs are
made of plain fabric bordered with
cretonne Picture frames are covered
with it and the cut-out figures are ap-
piled to candle shades. Cushions for
chairs help carry out the scheme for
cretonne decorations.
In the picture are three candle
shades, a fine tray and frame for
photographs. They are made of Gre
tonne or of linen. A set made up of
the tray and frame and one or two
candle shades all matching ought to
rejoice the heart of any one who ap-
preciates pretty dressing case. They
are all very easily made.
70 make the pin tray a small oval
frame with glass and back is needed.
Plenty of these are to be found at
the ten cent stores framing pictures
which 1t is a decided satisfaction to
take out and destroy. After cleaning
the glass a stiff cardboard is to be cut
out (using the glass as guide) into
backing for cretonne covering.
Paste the cretonne to this backing
smoothly or allow half inch around
the edge and fasten the cretonne with
stitches drawn across the back of the
cardboard. Slip the covered form In
to the frame under the glass and re-
place the back. Paste a piece of plain
paper or felt over the bottom of the
tray.
The photo frame is made of heavy
cardboard 9h inches long and 5h
inches high. The oval openings are a
trifie over 3 inches high and 2 inches
broad. The cretonne is cut allowing
inch to turn over the edge all around
and " inch about the oval openings.
1t must be slashed at the openings to
make IL fit and is pasted or glued
down about the ovals first. The card
board is then mounted to four strips
of cardboard Gas heavy as corrugated
board) which extend all round the
edge of the frame at the back. These
strips are glued to the frame. The
inch allowance in the material is
brought over the edge of the frame
and glued down. A narrow strip of
glass is laid against the oval open
fngs at the back and fastened by
means of strips of paper pasted over 1t
and to the back of the frame. Finally
