NEAT RECEPTACLE FOR PINS

Cushion and Tidy Combined, This Should Be an Accompaniment of Every Drees Ing Table. This is a very useful little article for hanging upon the post>of the looking glass or upon a nail in the wall

by the side, and well within reach of the dressing table. The materials in which It is made are almost a matter of choice, and It Is entirely out-

lined with a silk cord carried tote three little loops on either side and again pt the lower corners, and a long loop of the same cord is attached to the top by which it may be hung up. The upper part consists of a shallow pocket lined with soft white silk for hairpins, and interlined at the back with a piece of cardboard to keep it In shape. Below this is a pincushion, the surface of which to decorated with a preUy little floral design, and below this again three hooks are sewn on, which may well be utilized in the manner shown in the sketch. Upon the pocket the word "Hata pins” can be worked where indicated. Pale pink silk or satin, with eiaretcolored cord, would be a pretty combination of color in which tbto useful little article could be made, and In that case, the cushion might be decorated with a wreath of tiny blue tor-get-me-nota. Pale green silk, with apple green cord, would also be very pretty and effective and pale yellow silk and white cord would look equally well, but would, of course, soil more quickly than darker shades of color.
