Large figures in rich raised embroidery

falls heavy fIIll of white lace. At the

An Excellent Idea.

a writer in the Decorator and Fur
nisher tells Of the e:pedicnt of q
thoughtful mother whose LARGE famil,
of children made much laundry work
For breakfast and luncheon, instead
of large tablecloths, she provided half
yard squares made from rood quality
of butchers linen. These were
hemmed and an init al worked in one
corner-cight or ten squares for each
child. These were laid diamondwisc
under each plate and renewed rs need
ed, the laundress finding these small
pieces much easier to care for than the
large cloths, The same writer offers
the suggestion that if good-sizcd milky
white glass beads are sewcd on the top
of the table mats crochctcd in heavy
cotton or made of corset cord, their eff
ficiency in protecting the table from
hot dishes is absolute.

Glimpses OF Ornate Costumes
Worn at the Charity Ball

The new word for the new year is
charity.
Much to the surprise of the world of
fashion-for it is busy world, intent
on the things near at hand and does

with the usual amount of poverty we

SAMMY sAMUELs IN TROUBLE.
His Charge OF Emhezxi~ment Proves =
boomerang of Large Sire.

boomerang OF Large size.
The preliminary hearing Friday after
noon before Justice Caldwell Of Abraham
Stein. charged by Samuel samuels. his
brother-in-law. with enforcement, proved
boomerang to the prosecuting witness.
The story showed that about n
year ago in Tacoma Stein gave
blu OF sale to Ssmuels for two horses, .
wagon and other property. There was no
consideration, and IL was well understood
by the parties that tho sale was made in
trust. Stein continued TO exercise owner
ship over the property. aud finally brought
IL to this city and sold IT. Samuels was
member of STEMS household. and not only
offered no objection but assisted at the
sales.
Recently samuels became so trouble
some that Stein ordered him from the
house and closed his doors against him.
Then the youths fertile brain Matched out
the idea that the proceeds Of the sale OF
the property which had once been trans
ferred TO him by bill OF sale should have
found their way into his pocket. aud
thcreupon he made demand upon Stein
to turn over the money, which figured up
about s237. Upon STEMS refusal to pay.
samuels swore out omplaint charging
his brother-ln-law with larceny by embeE-
element.
The only Witnesses examined by Justice
Caldwell were those for the state. and
their statements so clearly established
