The striking feature in dress is the sue

overcrowding ornaments a general effect
suggestive of simplicity 1t is the triumph
of art in this speciality. The word simplici-

letter word to express the even tonality

what has ever charmed in Dress and for
which some of the bellies written of in the
eighteenth century were reputed. This is

BABY BASKETS,
simple and Dainty and Useful for
Holding Toys.

Holding Toys.
From Harper's Bazaar.
A pretty and dainty baby basket can be
made by using ordinary eight or ten
cent chip basket as a foundation. 1t should
be covered and lined neatly with a cheap
figured material. About two yards of pretty
challi, silkoline. sateen or dotted Swiss or
any other suitable material would answer
the purpose.
and out by applying the material fiat and
sewing 1t through the basket next cut a
piece of goods wide enough to go from
the bottom of the basket inside to the bot
tom outside (allowing, of course, a little to
turn IND, and long enough to go around the
basket; sew the ends of this together.
Now take another strip of goods for the
pockets; if the material is very thin it may
be doubled to make it stronger, and BY
stitching the edge the necessity for binding
or hemming the opening of the pocket will
be avoided. Box-pleat this strip to make
suitable number of pockets, and stitch by
machine to the goods lining around the
basket. Stitch firmly also the sides of each
pocket.
Now slip. the goods on the basket, with
the pockets on the outside. Slit the goods
where necessary to slip over the handle of
the basket, then sew up again. Finish the
inside of the basket first by turning up
the goods and sewing through the basket;
then finish the outside in the same man
ner, making the stitches as inconspicuous
as possible If preferred. the pockets may
be made separately and stitched on.
To make the basket look a little more
fluffy and baby-like piece of lace, either
gathered or straight may be sewed on the
rim and falling inside. The handle is to
be covered with flounce of the goods
trimmed with lace and tied up in the CEN
ter. The effect of the whole is charming
The pockets of the basket are to be used
of course, for all the accessories of baby's
toilet. while the interior is used for hold
ing the little dresses and flannels.
The successful accomplishment of this
a basket Of the same kind but covered
with strong linen or denim, to be used as a
receptacle for child's toys and games
SO that in the evening there would be no
more excuse for playthings left lying
about. 1t proved a great success, and I
should strongly advise mothers and aunts
who value an orderly home to try the ex-
pertinent.

From Industries Iron.
With reference to the new substitute for
India rubber, to which we referred g. fort
night ago, we are now informed that the
manufactory established for the manufac-
cure of this product is in an advanced state
of preparation, and is expected to be short
ly in full work. The machinery provides
for an output Of forty tons per week, and
the works cover nearly three acres of
ground. and are situated but a short dis
tance from London. "Oxilin," the name
registered for the new product, manfestly
indicates an oxidized oil. There is in itself
nothing particularly new about a product
of this nature, but 1t is claimed by the in
ventor, Charles Grist, that up to the pres
ent time TO one but himself has been sue
cessful in completely oxidizing the oil,
whether when in the form of a film or in
spray. Mr.. GTist has adopted a perfectly
different course to that which has been
heretofore pursued, making q large en-
ployment Of vegetable fibers.
1t is stated that "oxilin'' will perfectly
replace India rubber for a large variety of
purposes. such as hydraulic packings, wire
insertion and the like, being impervious to
mineral oil, and standing temperature
Of from 200 to 400 degrees Fahrenheit in its
natural and vulcanized forms respectively.
It can be sold at a considerable reduction
on the price Of India rubber.

hcased In scarlet hose;
A pair of little stubby bOots
With rather doubtful toes
little kilt, a little coat
Cut a: mother can
And lOl before stands in state
The futures coming man."
sHis eyes, perchance will read the stafAI
And search their unknown ways:
Perchance the human heart and soul
VIII open to their gaze;
Perchance their keen and flashing glance
Will be nations light
Those eyes that now are wistful bent
On some big fellows kite.
Those hands-those little, busy hands
So sticky, small and brown;
Those hands whose only mission seems
To pull all order down;
Who knows what hidden strength may b0
Within their tiny clasp, =
Though now tits but taffy stick
In sturdy hold they grasp2
All, blessings on those little hands
Whose work is yet undone;
And blessings on those little feet
Whose race Ii yet unrun!
And blessings on the little brain
That has not learned to plan:
Whate'er the future holds In store.
God bless the coming man."
