TO HOLD THE PHOTOS

DAINTY LITTLE CASE OF COMPARATIVELY EASY CONSTRUCTION. Witt Do Away With the Necessity of “Weeding Out” Collection That Has Become Too Large for Convenient Handling. In these days of amateur photography, photographs have the knack of collecting in such large numbers that it is rather difficult to know what to do all of them, but one way out of the difficulty is to make a dainty little case for -holding some of them, This little novelty is made in creamcolored satin and lined with white Japanese silk and edged with a pale pink silk cord carried into three little loops at each corner. It is intended for holding cabinet portraits, and when closed measures 8 inches by 5% Inches. .

The case should be stiffened with a piece of cardboard sewn in between the satin and lining at the back. The edge of the pocket is bound with narrow ribbon of a color . exactly matching the silk cord, and the word "Photographs” is embroidered across the case in silk of a similar color. The remaining space is filled up with a simple design of-two white daisies and leaves worked in various shades of green. Pale pink ribbon strings are provided to secure the case when Icfateed. This case looks very decorative ond pretty upon a table, and the portraits are easily accessible to anyone who desires to inspect them, and at the same time, when placed in the case, they are well protected from dust and dirt, and they will keep in good condition.
