HANDKERCHIEF- BOX , WITH PIN - CUSHION TOP . BY MRS . JANE WEAVER .

THIS box is made of deal, and measures ten inches square, and three inches and a half deep. The inside of the box, and the outside of the lid are covered with quilted blue glace silk ; five squares in Cluny are fastened on the cover. On the outside of the cover, where the outer and inner coverings are joined together, sew on fine olue silk braid ; make a loop in front, as seen

in illustration . The sides of the box are covered on the outside by a quilling of blue satin ribbon. Round the edge of the outside and inside sew on a ruche of narrower satin ribbon. Fasten a button in front to correspond with the loop . At the sides the lid is fastened on the top by means of narrow ribbon. The top forms a pincushion.
