The Hanging Pincushion.

Do not dream of crossing the ocean without first providing yourself with a hanging pincushion, as it is the only sort which you can be sure oi instantly laying your fingers upon while dressing. Make the cushion square of shape, reasonably flat and not t&> large to easily pack into the dressing bag, ancf'to one corner attach a stout silk cordage hanging of considerable length. This you will secure to a hook In you? stateroom by twisting it round and round, and when preparing to debark will merely clip off with scissors, knotting the ends together again before attaching it to some other hook. A yard long hanger usually answers for a summer’s tour, so say experienced travelers.
