MAKING MONEY AT HOME.
How Some Women Manage to Exc Out
Slender Ir comes.

Slender Ir comes.
AS there are a great many women
who, while not actually obliged to go
out into the world as bread-winners
find it necessary to supplement a scant
income by turning TO practical ac-
count such skill as they may possess,
these are always glad of suggestions
that viii make it possible at home, and
not. indeed, for mere pin money.
or course, the home industries that
must first be studied and practiced un-
der trained teachers, such MS the beau
tiful new basket work, the Abnakee
rug weaving and the like, commend
themselves because of the excellent
remuneration; but there are many
handicrafts that women learn from
each other quickly, not requiring to
attend classes for instruction, and
among the most profitable is lace
making.
A friend may spend an hour will
another friend and learn from her how
to make a table centre of Battenberg,
Renaissance. Venetian. Point, Honlton
or some other of the prevailing braid
laces. and by skill and industry may
make one in the spare hours of couple
of weeks or so that will bring from

Table centres of drawn work bring

ions from 81 to s.. and ones in Bat
tenberg only little less.
These squares and round pieces are
tables between meals. even more now
than during the repast and have come
TO almost supersede the embroidered
ones, also the doylies.
But table embroderies have not
'Sone out" by any means-it is one
OF the very oldest arts, this, and only
changes in its expression. These will
always repay the worker whose actual
livelihood does not depend upon it,
especially il by showing a sample of
her work at the exchanges she can
secure orders for them.
Not every one can do nice hemstitch-
ing. and those who can may also get
orders for hemstitchng tablecloths,
napkins tray cloths sideboard scarfs,
towels, sheets and pillows.
But most frequently the gentle
woman who seeks to add TO a very
restricted income by home industries
wishes to do only such work as may
be executed and sent to the place of
sale in an unnoticed way, and this is
easily done by making all sorts of
those small, dainty articles that mod
ern living has evolved as necessities,
and combining herself to those which
sell quickest and most proitably.
Some women make the same sort of
bags, pm cushions or little sacques
over and over again till a staple de.
mand is made for their speciality, find
ing that IL pays better to make the
same article in large numbers, after
the demand is made, than taking
chances on a varied assortment.
One girl who used her brush with
water colors remarkably we'll made
fine little income doing dinner cards,
copying Gibson girls with the consent
of the artist, until the publishers issued
a ban on all reproductions.
A clever girl can decorate tally cards

CONCERNING THE MAILS.
IMPORTANT DECISIONS rem.
DERED IN THREE CASES.

Washington, Dec. 5-Praotioally
the whole policy OF the postofiice
department in its recent classification
reforms il involved in three decisions
rendered by the district court Of APP
pesls In two OF the cases the deoi.
sions are against the postoffioe depart
ment and in the other the government
Is sustained. All three cases will be
appealed to the United States su.
preme court, pending whose final &C.
tion the classification reform policy,
under which many publications have
been excluded from the second class
privileges, probably will remain in
suspension. The two cases decided
adversely to the government are
those OF the National Railway Publ.
cation company and the Railway List
company. The department is upheld
In the case of Chicago business
college. The lower court il sus-
tanned in each Of the three cases.
The courts opinion in the railway
publications cases holds that congress
has not committed to the postmaster
general or anyone else the deter
minstion of what should be carried
in the mails as second class or third
class matter, that power being re-
served exclusively to congress, which
makes the classification. The court
says that it may be that the olassi-
fioation is not as definite as it might
he and that the privilege is grossly
abused. but congress itself, the court
says, made the classification and 1t is
not competent for the postmaster
general TO add anything to the stat
ute or to take anything from IL.
