Baby.

Helps in the Making of Clothes for the
Baby.
Few things are more becoming to the
baby than a dainty little sacque, and
none is equally useful and pretty. Late
in the afternoon, when baby's dress is
apt to be rather crushed, they give it
a smart appearance, when one is
slipped on just before leaving the nurs-
cry for inspection by visitors in the
drawing-room, and they lend just the
necessary warmth in the cool morning,
when heavier wrapping would be bur-
densome. Not all mothers, however,
have time for the lovely, soft knitted or
crocheted ones, and occasionally, in large
families, the advent of Il baby is SO de-
lightfully mOnOtOnous every two or
three years that even the most admir-
ing relatives fail in the gifts which
came in showers for the first, and, fur
thermore, everything in worsted is
spoiled in the first washing it receives.
There are other sacqucs almost as
dainty and attractive as those in wool,
and yet they can be made in a few
hours, are very inexpensive, and can be
carefully Numbered several times to
look almost as good as new. They are
made of cream flannel or cashmere,
preferably the cashmere, since it does
not shrink at all. The simplest
way of making them is to run
the seams together on the wrong
side, pink the edges, and on
the right side feather-stitch the same,
and put a row of the same around the
edge, collar and cuffs, about quarter
of an inch from the pinlIing. A second
style is like the first, with the eXcep-
ton OF the edge, which is worked in
buttonhole-stitch instead of being
pinled; third style omits all feather
stitching, the edges, neck and sleeves
are finished with unprecedented seal
lop in wool, and two rows of baby rib
bon are run quarter of an inch from
the crocheted edge and from each other.
The fourth and prettiest way is to feath.
er-stitch the seams, and the tiny hem
made around the edge, collar and cuffs,
and to finish these with a crocheted
edge in washing silks-cream, pink or
blue being equally pretty. All this
little sacques are fastened at the neck
with little ribbon bow, matching this
color used in decorating them.
Not only will these be found useful to

The board of county commission

considering the Raleigh & CASTOR

$4,000. The commissioners set
tied it as far as they are concerned
by deciding that the railroad should
pay tax on property valssashesh
at $1,724,200, as not exempt from
taxation under the charter of the
road. They decided that the Louis
burg road and several other proper
ties such as engines, &C., were ex-

ter.
Maj. Hinsdale, counsel for thu

and by trucking in those things for
which he can find a ready market.
DIR. M. T. Savage, physician and
farmer. thought that it is good to
raise nome supplies and not impov-
erish the soil by depriving it of veg
citation by planting cotton so long
on the same land.
Mr.. A. w. Early, of Berthe
county, farmer and merchant,
said that safe plan is to make
home supplies first, whatever the
price of cotton. Resolutions would
not effect much, but the matter of
personal judgment as to what crops
ought to be raised, after home sup
plies, must regulate the crop.
Rev. L. NJ. Curtis said that
his observation as minister was
that the independent farmers of the
and are those that raise their own
pplies.
Mr.. R. II. Smith, Jr., lawyer,
A,3ght that resolutions properly
shaped touching the matter of acre
age would lead to the reduction and
the needed diversity Of crops.
Hon. w. H. Kitchin made some
well-timed remarks, urging the
farmers to stop making cotton at 6
loss. His remarks, as we'll as those
of all who spoke, were well re
ceived.
: The concensus Of the meetint
: was very pronounced in favor of re
$ ducing the acreage in cotton, di
q versifying the crops and, first of all
y raising home supplies. There wer
no resolutions formally passed, bu
e all were agreed on the question
n discussed. 1t is thought that goo
l. will result from the meeting an
that cotton will no longer be kin

before the eastbound passenger
train was due. The pilot of the
freight engine ploughed under the
upright ends of the crossties and
threw them from the bridge. There
was a sharp shock, but none Of the
