Then Betty sped upstairs to the gar

relics of her fathers regimental career.
Five minutes later the colonel. who
had been watching the movements of
the men on the avenue, was filled with

/. NEW Table linen.
Passing of Silk and Satin Festival
-Damask For the Coming Season.

Stylish table linen for the coming
season shows decided change from
that of the past. Satin, silk and velvet
viii no longer be used. even with the
handsomest lace trimmings. To be sty-
lish lace. which will be much used
must be combined with a suitable quail
ity of linen. either dull or satin finished.
For these lace sets there are three
new laces- a Russian lace that has
close meshes and clumsy looking fig
ures; across the room it has the an
pearance of ordinary crochet work; a.
French lace that more than anything
else resembles coarse linen torchon. and
the third fine duchess lace. This last
is the finest lace ever used in table
decoration. and is combined with linen
so fine and sheer as to almost resemble.
muslin. It is used chiefly for tea and
lunch cloths, center pieces and plate
and finger bowl doilies. One of the most
beautiful luncheon cloths shown is OF
dull finished linen with center of
duchess lace about the size of large
dinner plate; from this lace center to
the four corners of the cloth extend a
narrow scroll work of the lace. while
around the edge is a lace border three
inches deep. OF course the corners of
this cloth are not intended to fall over
the corners of the table. but midway
between. With this cloth goes plate and
finger bowl doilies. miniature copies Of
the cloth. Renaissance and Battenburg
laces will still be used but must be
combined with linen instead of silk and
satin, though the linen used with these.
handsome laces is so smooth and
glossy as to closely resemble the two
displaced fabrics. 1t is not necessary
that doilies and napkins used with lace
trimmed cloths should be themselves
lace trimmed, but they must be hem
stitched.
Another new bordering for small
cloths, doilies and napkins, is the fayaI
drawn work. This is done on the finest
linen and in no way resembles the old
fashioned drawn or Mexican work. All
the threads running one way being
drawn out, elaborate and graceful de-
signs are worked in with the needle
This border is used on the most elegant
cloths and costs more than the finest
quality of lace. Old-fashioned drawn 8
work will still be used ON less stylish
occasions. 1t will be much cheaper than
heretofore, owing to the fact that the
work is now done in Japan The linen
is made, often hemmed. and then sent
to Japan with the desired pattern to be
worked. AS a result of cheap Jananese
labor elegantly worked cloths will be
sold next season for less than half their
former price.
Crochet work has been, revived for
table decoration. and women who have
a fondness for displaying their own
handiwork on their table can crochet
to their hearts content. Mats. doiIies,
tray cloths, luncheon cloths and even
small dinner cloths are bordered with
this work But it must not be whipped
on as an edge, but worked in the linen
itself OF course the thread used should
be linen, and it may be either bleached

or unbleached. to suit the taste of the
worker. For dOilieS. mats and tray
cloths often solid pieces of crochet are
used. When such is the case the same
pattern may be used or each piece may
be entirely different. The popular
shapes are oval, round, diamond and
squares

will be more used than ever before. at
least for a dozen or more years. the IA
vorite designs are floral and very pro-
Iounced. Instead of small leaves and
single buds and blossoms as heretofore.
the damask this season shows entire
plants or long branches laden with both
leaves and flowers One of these sets
which is particularly beautiful has a
large chrysanthemum plant in each
corner. with their flower laden branches
extending towards the center. Thus

a small piece in the middle of the cloth

beautiful. Other designs show lilies.
peoples, hollyhocks, golden rod and
other graceful plants rising from their
beds of moss and grasses just above
the hem and extending towards the
center of the cloth, which in the most
stylish designs are always plain.
For round cloths the blossoms are
smaller, and pansies or cosmos seem TO
be the favorite flowers. The centers of
these cloths, unlike those designed for
long or square tables. are strewn with
flowers, sometimes even small clusters
being used. Round cloths. in fact all
table linen not lace trimmed. are mark
ed with embroidered initials For dol
lies and napkins these letters should be
one and a quarter inches long, FOR
cloths two and a half inches long They
may be intertwined or separate. but
never monographs. Another point Of
difference is that lace trimmed table
linen alone should be hemstitched-
Crochet work and hemstitching is not
combined. neither is it used on the lat

are not to be used, neither are center
pieces embroidered in colors- When en-
broidered centerpieces are pure white
