TO HOLD DAINTY NIGHTDRESS

Pretty Case of Pale Pink Batln. Lined. With White Silk—Strings to Match Material. Something very pretty in the shapq of a nightdress case may be seen in the accompanying sketch. It is carried out in pale pink satin and lined with soft white silk and edged with silk cord and tied together with ribbon strings of a color to match thd satin. Between the covers and the lining, a double thickness of swansdown flannelette should be sewn in to give the case substance. On the front of the case a design of three white dogroses and foliage is embroidered, but there are, of course, many other pretty designs that might take its place, and for this purpose a transfer pattern of some suitable floral design may be easily obtained at a trifling cost. The blossoms should, however, be worked in white, as white blossoms and green foliage always look charming upon a pink background. T’bfr ease opens in front for a third of the way down, and after the night-

dress has been placed Inside, the flap i§ folded upwards and secured with the ribbon strings. The small sketch on the right hand side shows the case so closed, and by the way, the silk cord, which is of a fancy pattern, is carried into three little loops at each corner. This sachet might, of course, ba made in other colors, and it is always a pretty idea with articles of this description to select colors to match or harmonize with that of the bed quilt, or perhaps in the event of a white bed quilt, the wall paper.
