TO CARRY SMALLER COINS

Uwful Little Bag Will Be Found Va|.( uable When on Shopping Ex- ' curslons. A pence bag, to be carried slung upon the wrist, is a very useful possession during shopping excursions, and we give a sketch of a dainty little bag, of this description, which can be made in spare moments from almost any odd remnant of silk. It should be made in quite a small size, and for ordinary purposes four

inches in depth and three inches in width will be found quite large enough. It is cut oilt in two pieces, and the material is then lined with soft wash leather and sewn together at the edges. It is gathered at the neck and draws togethei* with a silk cord, which is also of service for carrying ft upon the wrist. Prior to making the bag up, the effective little’ floral design Illustrated should be worked in colored silks, and lastly, to complete the purse, the edges of the materials at the neck are bound with narrow ribbon. This bag might be carried out, and would be equally serviceable in suede or kid, cut from the top of old long gloves, in this case it should be lined, with silk. . .
