Practical Novelties.

A most convenient collar box covered with cretonne is of octagonal shape and has a groove in a little inside flap for holding the elusive but, tons, which can be easily slid In and out Among the most useful and attractive of the numerous bags shown are those of tapestry woven in pictures. Some of these are for carrying slippers, fan or opera glasses. One particularly well adapted to the latter purpose is made of a three-tach wide strip of tapestry interlined with stiffening. Thia continuous strip forms the sides and bottom of the bag, the front and back of which are ot plain fabric which is gathered at the top with a cord. A new voluminous darning bag ot cretonne has applied pockets and a needle case on the outside. A particularly dainty and unique fancy bag is in the form of a Chinese lantern.
