boxes.

and green ribbons, white tissue paper

and anything which will giT a nonday look to" the package. A card bearing a personal cheery greeting will add to the gift. Withj a little ingenuity and careful planning you can make really charming tokens which will bo a source of pleasure to those for wham they are iatended. The following gifts may give you some suggestions for easy to make remembrances: A telephone directory is always an acceptable gift for use in a library or bedroom. The back is cut from cardboard and covered with silk, ribbon, or cretonne. Pockets of the material are

made at either end into which the tele

phone list is slipped. Tho lists may ba printed on white paper with India ink. To one of the ends a silk cord which is tied for hanging of a small pencil is

attached.

A novel idea is a smelling salts bottle mounted in old rose brocade with the

edges neatly finished with narrow oldgold braid. " The bottles may be further embellished by trimming with little ribbon roses. Old-rose brocade is adaptablo also for the new vanity bags. Cover a little mirror with a piece of silk and shir the bag to this. Draw the bag together with a narrow old gold cord run through tho casing half inch from the top. Iu-

side the bag plaee a little celluloid box for the powder and a tiny powder puff. Why not make a bridge whist bag for the whist enthusiast f Make three bags of flowered ribbon the desired length, join the bags together so they form three pockets. Tho two outer onea aro for the cards, while tho inner one is for the score card. Many women prefer to nse small balls of cotton tied with a narrow ribbon to the. old fashioned powder puff. Cover a small box with flowered ribbon or decorated crepe paper and fill with the cot

ton balls. Cut the center out of the cover of the box so one can easily take

the rjuffs out. I misn the box with a

pretty ribbon bow.

A black China-silk hat bag for the traveler is sure to be appreciated. In a

casing about one and a half inches from the top run a ribbon. Sew two square

and one long narrow pocket on the front. The square pockets are for cdoves and the narrow one for the hat

pins.

A card case mav be a good suggestion

for a last-minute gift. A long strip of

silk is embroidered first and then inter lined with cardboard or canvas and i

thin sheet of delicate scented wadding, then lined with another strip of plain silk of tho same size. Overhand the edges together and make the pockets by turning the edges over a sufficient depth and fastening along the sides. After the case is finished sew a narrow silk cord of a darker shade around tho edge to hide all the stitches and finish neatly.

Revillie. Miss Laura Hill and Mrs. Horner were called homo from Minneapolis on account of the serious illness of their brother, Lloyd Hill. Mrs. Lamb attended the funeral of C. F. Jackson and called on friends in

A mailing tube is used for the founda

tion of a veil case. Stuff lightly with cotton and cover the ends of the roll with ribbon to form a cushion for the hat pins. Cover bhe roll with fancy

ribbon and attach to this a ten inch

length of silk or embroidered linen. Attach ribbon to tho silk and fie tho roll up. Veil, handkerchief, glove and necktie) envelopes of linen require little labor! and cost but a trifle. Buttonhole the1 flap and upper edge with white r-nd embroider the initials on the flap. Tiny pearl buttons slip through the little buttonholes at each corner of the flap.

For ten cents you can buy a tin book rack, which when covered with tapestry or cretonne and finished with a narrow braid gives the appearance of a much more expensive article. "Wire scrap baskets gilded and lined with a gay chintz and festooned with cord of a harmonizing shade are an out-of-the-ordinary present. A wiro frame is also used for a pretty boudoir lamp shade. Imitation filet lac is fitted over the frame and the design in the lace worked out with embroidery ribbon. Finish the frame with a throe

inch bead friuge. A paste board bolt for number 12 ribbon is used for the foundation of a. unique hair pin cushion and stuffed with whit:; horse hair. The top and sides of the bolt may be covered with white or gold net over chiffon or ribbon. Cover the bottom with a piece of whifre ribbon and der orate the cushion with a circle of ribbon IIowcts.

A round puffed sachet is made of pink eilk stuffed with cotton and has a pink ribbon rose sewed on the top over the shirring. The bag beneath the rose is tied with narrow ribbon.

For His Majesty the Baby there are a wealth of ideas. One which is sure to amuse is a string of celluloid balls with a rattle in each one.

Adorable little nursery pins to catch np the sleeves of baby's dress or to hold the yoke in place are made by fastening little ribbon roses to tiny gilt safety pins. There is no set rule, but blue is used usually for a boy and pink for a girl. For the baby who is learning to creep mother will like a chain of large sized kindergarten beads, strung on a ribbon and tied in a circle with a ribbon bow. Babykins will be bo anxious to reach the beads that he is sure to start off creeping right away. For a child's napkin holder nmko a strap of ribbon eight inches long. Embroider the child's monogram on the ribbon, attach small gilt fasteners and line with ribbon. For baby's best bonnet cover a small hat box with pretty decorated crepe paper.

Neckties, caps, slippers.

booties, napkin rings, collar and cuff ; sets, and so forth. j Grandma may like a cap for her ' scissors. Crochet a cap over a largo ! size cork with a simple stitch, leaving

an opening at the bottom. With a sharp knife cut a slit in the cork and placo the scissors in it. To make a linen mat for hot dishes stamp an oval or circlo with a scalloped edge on a piece of linen and embroider initials on one end. For tho lower part of the mat use another piece of linen the same size as the first piece. Baste the two together and buttonhole the edges half way round. Leave the under; piece separate and finish the upper piece in buttonhole and hem the under piece. A piece of asbestos should bo slipped in the bag.
