M\ ture above. Inst ESFront the material is laid in folds FRIDAY. OCTOBER 26, 1917. . WAS MOST TALKED-GF GiFT Duster Box, Prepared at a Total Ccst of 75 Cents, Center of Attraction at “Linen” Shower. The “linen” shower for the engaged girl struck one of her friends at a time when her pocketbook 'was, oh, 8o very thin. She would have liked dearly to have brought a set of in- itialed towels or a really pretty run- ner, but it was out of the question. After all, linen showers are more or less elastic things; so she finally de- cided to buy eight yards of cheesecloth at 5 cents a yard. She cut this into two-yard strips and folded each into a yard square of double thickness. Then she blanket-stitched each with a different colored cotton to hold the edges together. Incidentally, she knew the color scheme of the engaged girl's new home and so there was & pink edge for one hedroom, a laven- der for another, a blue for the dining room and a yellow for the living room, though nobody would say a word if the dusters—yes, that’s what they were— if the dusters got mixed. Then she painted up a nice flat tin box with two coats of black enamel and added a cute little dusting lady cut from a magazine ad to the ld. The dusters went into the box with a small bottle of furniture oil, the kind used for mops. This was to make the dusters dustless, and a note went with them to tell the engaged girl all about it. The duster box was the most-talked of gift of the shower, and the whole thing only cost 75 cents because the clever girl had the tin box and the bits of colored cotton. " HERE IS NEW ‘NEEDLECRAFT But the Needles That Are Employed Are Those That Are Obtained Ficm the Pine Trees. It's really a needlecraft because you use needles, but not the fine, shining steel needles of embroidery or the bone or amber of knitting and crochet, but %he long, green needles of the pine g\trees, the longer the better. One is reminded of Indian basketry as one binds the sweetsmelling needles gathered from under pine trees into pliable ropes of many uses. As the needles vary in length, the binding must be a continuous process. The thickness of the rope decided upon, the needles are laid in a bunch until the correct rope thickness is reached, then they are tied with a bright cord or strand of raffia, which winds round and round, and as one needle ends another is added. The rope may be shaped into a basket or mat as the winding goes on, and the attractive trinket further elaborated with em- ‘broiderings of raffia- after the whole is finished. The continuous rows of rope are held together either by sewing them with the cord or raffia run through a long-eyed needle or as each row is wrapped it can include the row Just preceding. PRETTY SCHOOL DRESS To make a plain dress in a new way and to make it attractive, spells suc- ess when the task is to outfit the hoolgirl, ss made of dark blue serge and bound with silk braid is as plain as the most austere taste could wish, but it escapes being common- place by a very simple expedient. The sleeveless overbodice has come to the rescue of the plain frocks in dark cloths, wherein the miss at school is correctly clad. The overbddice is shown in many developments, one of the simplest and most practical appearing in the pic- d of darts at the P fastened down with bone buttons and buttons serve to fasten the back. A sailor collar of georgzette crepe, with a little silk embmidery at the corners,! finishes off the toilette of the young! girl whese mind is busy with other things than dress. But she is encour- aged to freshen up her appearance with collars of organdie or lace of may be laundered.
