A Knitting Bag.

To make a useful knitting bag, twist
two rounds of zinc wire; n small one
for the bottom Of the bag and a much
larger one for the top or shoulder.
Stretch some effective colored silk
either striped or brocaded-from one
ring to the other, allowing for the bag
TO be about ten by twelve inches in
length; sew securely to the wire rings.
and here add frills Of silk I'm a con-
trasting shade. The lower friIl Is
merely required to ornament the bag,
and should be couple Of inches wide
finished with twist of ribbon and q
big bow to hide the joints. The upper
frill il much more important as 1t
fashions the actual mouth Of the bag,
and should be allowed quite six inches
deep. Fix one edge to the large ring.
and about two and one-half inches
from this insert reeving string Of
brightly colored ribbon, which shall
act as draw-thread for opening and
closing the reticule. The rest of the
frill will stand up and form a dainty
finish, while | would suggest that this
frlll be lined throughout with some
delicate color. Yellow with white lin
ing, green with pink lining and hello

each and all dainty and effective, while
the material used for such bags may
be OF any of the art colored br0cades

used for work sachets, or again, small

Uncle sam. Unique Ram.

A weIlknown French writer on naval
affairs says that the "Ammen Ram
the Katahdin. Is a vessel that Is sure
to command more than usual interest
among those who have 20 take thought
for the fighting ships Of the future,
because she Is protected from gun-fire
in a manner which is almost perfect.
This vessel. which Is now lying Mt
the Brooklyn Navy Yard. has been
visited by many foreign naval ex-
perts as well as by nOn-combatants,
who go to see her out Of mere curios-
ity. The upper part Of her huh, the
deck. is convex in form. and when
sch is at sea, with her green color. she
will remind one OF an immense whale
with a smokepipe protruding from its
back. The French writer alluded to
says that a ship OF form and construc-
ton analogous to the Katahdin would
possess, at an equal speed. many and
great advantages over the armored
battIe-ship of to-day. hampered with
its enormous superstructures: she
could not only infiict the most serious
injuries upon her enemy with her
great ram bow. but she could get suf-
ficently near to hostile vessel to
launch her torpedoes without danger
from the enemy's artillery. In trials
she has shown that when under way
her hull Is so protected by the waves
as to be practically inyulnerable; shell
might ricochet on her deck. but, ex-
Pooling above that, they would probab-
~ do little Ii any damage.-New York

is composed only Of laymen, but the scs-
sioDs were attended by many distinguished
meinbers of the clergy of the Episcopal
Church from this country, England and
Scotland The speaker said that the cf-
feet of this convention at Pittshurg was
sure to be of material value to the EpiS-
copal Church where its membership and
influence We're not so large as 1t was
ncities of equalimportance with Pittsburg.
The practical work of the year was shown
in the announcement of the formation of
eighty-five new chapters and the revival
of fourteen. which had been suffered to
ianguish. There are 1 ,174 chapters of
Une order. which furnish 500 Of the hy
readers of the church.

partments of service in which the influence
OF the brotherhood was eXpending as in the
rescue missions, travelling mems associa-
tions, Sunday school work, Bible classes,
and among college students.
