I ?I I I h. g m IB I I ceive peful Attention 1 ouoiiiwiv u^JiMwi-ii ron lall"i Oblong in Shape, lt ls Eminently Adapted for the Most Common Type of Chair. The usual cushion, however Boft and comfortable, is not suited for many chairs, especially for those of the deck chair variety, and it is this type of chair that is to be found in almost every home. For such chairs, an oblong cushion is much more suit able than the usual shape, and the cord that finishes off the cushion it self should form a loop at the top, so that it is easily slipped over the back of the chair, but the cushion remains in position without slipping down. Sufficient cord should be allowed so that the size of the loop may be in creased or decreased, according to the fancy of the user. The cover of the cushion looks well in buff-colored linen, and the design worked in blue and red, the shapes be Appropriate and Pretty. ing outlined with black. A very sim ple pattern such as illustrated is best for the purpose; the design is very simple and could be sketched on the linen, or, of course, transfers can be had of almost any pattern. The size of the cushion will all depend upon the size o? the chair which it is for; the back had better be of the same material, as it washes well. Only two kinds of stitches are used in the working of the design-satin stitch and outline stitch; they are very simple to work, as shown in the small diagrams. Tho outlining in black of all the shapes gives an Ori ental effect to the work, and gives it a more finished look generally. Washing silks or threads should bo bought to work with; it will be found charming work to do in holiday time or in odd moments. Any color of cord liked can be eployed, but perhaps a blue the same shade as the silk in the design is preferable. A cushion made thus would be greatly appreciated as a gift, for it is a most useful ons, particularly when its position can be regulated to suit individual needs. PRETTY MANTELET FOR BABY Woman Who Can Crochet Way Piesse Herself or Some Other Mother Wi:h This Garment. Can you make Irish crocheted lace and have you a baby? They're per fectly serious questions, and, however bey sound, weren't meant to be funny. You see, if you can crochet, you can make a fascinating mantelet for a baby; but ii* you haven't the baby but, of course, how stupid-there is always somebody else's baby. And so, there is need to ask only one question: Can you crochet Irish lace? If so. make a twenty-two-inch square of Irish lace, covered with thu shamrocks and tiny roses. One corner of the square, however, is to bc round ed. A straight line of shirring diag onally across this rounded corner and a row cf shirring about the edge o? thc rounded corner itself makes a lie tie cap for the baby. The remaining three points form the capelike man telet. Crochet, a scalloped edge on the mantelet. About, tho diagonal linc o? slurring across tho rounded comer put a band of ribbon, ending in ribbon strings at either side. This is tied is a how under thc child's chin. For cool weather the square should be lined. After tho crocheting is finished, before the shirring is put on the man telet, the lining can he put in. A heavy soft white wash silk would be an appropriate lining. You will have a truly fascinating mantelet for your baby or Baby Some body Else. Pompons With Beads. Pretty pompons for slippers are made in this way: Gather a doubled strip of chiffon-about three inches wide when folded-into a rosette. Make a little satin rose of the same color. If you are not versed in the ways of making roses from satin, make two rosettes, as you made the chiffon one, one smaller than the other, and fasten them together, and they will look flow er like. Use bright crystal beads for the flower center, and dot beads around the edges of the petals of the satin rose. Pure, clear glass beads give the best effect, but gold or silver beads! would also be pretty. To Dress the fte eic. A band of fancy ribbon for the neck, topped with a narrow edge of fur, fas tens at the left side under a flat bow of the ribbon, one edge of which is fur-trimmed. On no type of neckwear doeB narrow fur trimming show off to better advantage than on a gracefully draped fichu. Many such fichus are made of embroidered net or chiffon Some of them have a wide throat band of black velvet, together with a fichu jabot finish. irea.au* er a nonce.
