SPONGE BAGS
The dainty silk and rubber folding cases so much used now in place of the more ordinary sponge-bag. soon become soiled aud stained if laid down at the edge of a wash-basin or bath. They last longer and are handier to use if they are fitted with loops by which they may be hung up. Loops to match the case may easily be made from ribbon, binding, or strips of silk, and one should be stitched to each side of the case, so as not to interfere with its opening. If the case is soft and tends to sag when hung up, it should be stiffened with a length of whalebone, fitted inside each pocket and stitched into place.
