NOVEL SCRAP BASKET USEFLL RECEPTACLE THAT CAN BE EASILY MADE. i _ Strong Cardboard and Creamy Linen Are the Materials to Be Employed -Many Other Styles May Be Put to Use. There is no home that contains too many scrap baskets. In fact, if such a receptacle were found in every room, io say nothing of halls and stairways, I am confident they would, by their Tise, save very much of the constant picking up necessary in the average household. So if in doubt as to what to give for a holiday gift, send a scrap basket Some of the prettiest and daintiest designs in these receptacles can be carried out at home, as, for instance, the one pictured. As seen, it is stove pipe fashion, made from a strip of strong cardboard and covered with a creamy linen. The decoration is a large spray of flowers, embroidered in silks the natural colors of the flowers. The finish is lace edging at the top, one and one-quarter inches wide, standing up quite plain, not frilled. A plain, coarse linen lace should be used. Then it will not fall. To make the basket take a piece of cardboard about 18 by 22 inches. Paste the longer length together to make the pipe. Embroider the linen and sew on the lace. Stitch the edges together on the wrong side and hem the bottom. Line the inside ot the basket with a bit Of sateen or thin silk. Draw the outer covering over the cardboard, and for the bottom cut a round of cardboard the size to flt. Glue or paste the edge and then push it into the pipe, resting Jbalf an inch or so inside of it Of course, any outer covering could be osed, the selection depending upon the room where it would be placed. The crashes in gray, tan or ecru tints are always in good taste for living rooms generally, cretonne for bedrooms, tapestry for the Library and the dining room and lace over a dainty color for A boudoir or a girl's room. A light decoration in dainty colorings will be prettiest for white and cream linens. The ecrus can take a heavier design, also more vivid colorings, as a spray of asters, and should hand embroidery be beyond the skill of the house dec orator a spray of flowers cut from cre tonne and carefully applied with a Scrap Basket, Simple outline stitch will be equally effective and save lots of time. A narrow upholstery gimp is used as a trimming for cretonne baskets and the French gilt for those covered in tapestry. I saw a lovely basket on this order recently, but It was square in shape, so I chose the round model lor illustration because it was so mach easier to make than the square. It was of dull old rose, green and In dian yellow tapestry lined with lighter old rose silk and all edges finished .with the gilt gimp. If one feels equal to the attempt the result will be a Tory beautiful bit of handiwork. The cost of the ordinary basket will tie: Cardboard, ten cents; half a yard of linen, twenty cents; a transfer de sign, five or ten cents; lining, ten cents, and silks for working, probably fifteen cents.-Boston Globe. FUR TRIMMINGS ON WAISTS New Models Shown Almost Invariably Have This Embellishment, With the Best of Results. As might be expected, quite a few Of the new waist models are embel lished with fur. The fur stock is jQOvel, but H is not likely to be gener ally adopted because of its discomfort in a heated room, and also because a woman will prefer the fur neckband on her coat and a softer finish for the blouse. When fur is used lt is cut in the narrowest possible width and is hard ly more than a fringe. On light waists, such as white, flesh, pink, orchid and peach, dark fur is preferred to light, because of its greater decorative con trast. Surplice effects are back in fashion. They are, perhaps, a little newer and more feminine than the jabot style, bot the latter, too, are to have a win ter Inning.' A good many of the lin gerie blouses are fashioned along these Uc??S. There is not a great d^al of embroidery, either hand or ma chine, applied to such model;;. A PINE WHOOPING COUGH REMEDY.

Edgefield Mercantile Company CUSHION FOR THE HATPINS Now That These Ornaments Are So Large Some Such Receptacle lt Absolutely Necessary. An ordinary pincushion ls not much jse for hatpins because, unless lt ls i very large cushion, the weight of the heads of the pins will cause it :o fall over. Our sketch snows a prac tical little cushion for this purpose that will not fall over, on account ox [ts weight. It is made from an ordinary Jam Jar. The Jar in the first place is covered with thin silk, the material being fas :ened on just inside and underneath ;he jar with a strong adhesive. The 2dge and the base of the jar are next finished off with a plaited silk cord. ls the heavier the weight of this little irticle the better, the jar can be filled tvith sand, shot, or anything of weight, ind then the remaining part filled with cotton wool and covered in at the top with some pretty little rem nant of brocade. The colors of the material are a matter of choice, but this little cush ion looks very pretty carried out with pale pink silk and gold cord, and cov ared in at the top with colored bro cade.
