Sleeve seams.

Sometimes a sleeve acts as contrary Rs person. The inner seam will not set straight unless the material is set and pasted exact. This seam edge should be cut here and there up it's full length, to avoid any drawing. If the seam draws from the back when put ting the hands to the head the (outside) seam is too near the shoulder seam and must be lowered, bringing it nearer to the side-form seam. Do not snip waist seams as you do the sleeves, but cut them in even short scallops, whether you overcast or bind them with lutestring ribbon. Face the wrists with . bias piece of the dress goods, of silk the same color or of silk used as a vest or other trimming. If you like snug fit in the armsize, it is well to stitch it with the sleeve, on the outside, a narrow linen or cotton tape A too snug arnlsize causes the front of the waist to break.-American Queen.

SUCH MEN WERE SCARCE.
Novel Prayer Offered at Cowboys Bier by Regretfui CompaniOn.

Novel Prayer Offered at Cowboys
 Bier by Regretfut Companion.
 In the far west, on the lone prairie, number of cowboys were called to per form the last rites for eornrade who had daccidentally met sudden death. The dead comraae had been great favorite with the gang, so their grief at parting with him and their anxiety for his flu. tlre welfare induced strong desire on the part of each remaining one of his associates to hold religious serv- ices. Not one of them could sing ol remember a sacred song that he had ever heard. Not one of them could think of a prayer, and the inconsistency of the prayer offered as last resort can at least be given the credit of sin rerity. So we are willing to think that it would reach the throne and meet with more mercy and consideration than some flowery petition offered in in sincerity. Each one of them wore nickname. Briggs was the one applied to the dead man, and Arkansas Bob was the one that offered the following prayer:
 "Oh, Lord, guess in your opinion am pretty tough, but ain't saying any thing for myself; it's for Briggs. He's dead now. But, oh, Lord. he's as white a man as ever lived. He's got some thing away down in him as pure as steel, and, oh, Lord, he's got heart in him as big as mule. I'll tell you what he done the other day. He gave sick Mexican $4.40, turned round and nursed him through fever, and the darned fellow hadn't been we'll more than two days till he stole Briggs sad de pockets. Oh. Lord. you must not go back on such a man as that, because they are scarce in these parts. Oh, Lord, l never pestered any with the Bible, and just now I can't remember a hymn song, but if Briggs gets half chance he'll make as good record in Heaven as any man that ever got there" And. firing a salute to the memory of the dead, they left him alone in his glory.-Field and Farm.

STYLISH BOWS.
Girl at the Ribbon Counten Shows
 How They Are Made.


 How They Are Made.
 There are shops where the most fas- cinating bows are tied for the asking "Japanese" bows for the waistband, bows for the hat, "Bernhardt" bows for the neck, etc. One has only to purchase the ribbon and explain what is wanted. aid, prestol the white fingers of the pretty saleswoman flash in and out of the loops of ribbon and the bow is made. ..I will buy another waist ribbon if you will go more slowly and let me see how you do it." said customer to one of the obiging clerks, whereupen the latter smilingly cut off another length .sIt's no secret" she said, and we only dc it to oblige our customers. See, this is the principle!"
 She tied first an ordinary double bow knot, quite small and pretty loosely; then, taking up an extra quantity of ribbon, she passed it in and out through the tie in the center on the under side, making two additional loops. then. talk ing the original two loops, she pulled the knot fast and tight and small in the center.
 See, now you have four loops and two ends," she said. Would you like six !'' and loosening the knot little, she again passed the ribbon in and out, forming couple more; then, giving the two original loops jerk, she completed the bow.
 You can have as many loops as you like" she explained, and the rest of the arrangement depends entirely on the way the loops are pulled and shaped. Some of the newest bows have the loops cut diagonally, so as to form collec- ton of sharp pointed ends. These bows are particularly pretty for hats. It is also advisable. sine concluded, ito take a stitch in the center knot when the bow is finished to prevent it's untying if the right end is pulled out. Chicago Tribune.
