USEFUL IN THE SICK ROOM

Cozy That May Be Relied Upon to Keep Liquid Warm for Any Required Time.

An ingenious little device for keeping a tumbler of hot milk or other liquid warm is shown in the accom-

panying sketch, and it could also be used for keeping warm the early morning cup of tea that is often left standing for a time. To make it: Use the top of a round tin, large enough to coyr the top of the tumbler or cup, and in the edge of the lid pierce a number of small holes; Cover the surface of the lid with flannel and turfi the material over at the edges, and, by means of the £oles

pierced in the edge of the tin, securely sew it iq place. Then sew a flounce of flannef of sufficient length to reach to the bottom of the tumbler, and bind the flannel at the lowest' edge with narrow ribbon. The edge of the lid is finished off with a silk cord, and in the center three little loops of satin ribbon are sewed on, which form a kind of handle by which the "cozy” can be lifted up when occasion requires. In the sick room a little article of this kind will be found very useful, as it forms a capital cover for a glass, whether it contains warm or Chid liquid.
