drums tntecded for holding sweets. Of
these very pretty banging plncuahlOLl
can be made. Make a bag to Ot In the
drum and project a llttlo from the top;
fill with bran and then gluo Into the
drum covering the top with velvet or
ra'Jn and pushing tbe eOges wail In
between the muslin bag and th drum.
This little drum pincushion alung
by ribbons is must issctul. We all
know bow uf'rn a pin la wanted In a
drawing-room and bow seldom It Is
forthcoming so that a pincushion
which Is ornamental should find a
place more often than It usually due.
A very pretty and eaaily-ntade gill Is
a banging wall-pocket made tn rather
a novel niannrr. It Is particularly suit
ed aa a present for Invalids or in Arm
people who like to have the Imple-
nienta of their work neitr them.
An oblong cardboard foundation Is
covered with any malarial silk prefer-
ably that you like. Make a pocket
about a quarter the depth of tbe cov-
ered caid by gathering; In some of the
material and sewing it firmly to the
lower e-lgts. Then after putting a run-
ning piece of elrutlc through the upper
part of the silk sew tbe sldea ta tho
aides of the cardboard.
A hanging pincushion should be sus-
pended at cue si le and at the other
by a long rib Don a pair of uncful tl:ed
scissors. The convenience of a bang-
ing pocket of this kind la Very gn at.
and It can of course be mado very pret-
ty If artlatlr materials are choeen.
Make an tipper pocket In much the
same way and rover the opening at tbv
top by four bates which overlap ons
another but wblrli grsduate In size.
Thme leaves should be made In flan-
nel and into them should ba run n x l-
les ot all sites.
