Embroidered Gowns.

The fad for embroidered gowns
brings many pretty fancies to the fore.
and a woman who has an artistic sense
and Is clever with her neeo.e can beau
tify her cotton gowns in any number
of effective ways.
Here, for instance, Is a suggestion
for a wash cambria that is simple, and
yet has a wonderfully pretty effect:
Make shirt waist costume of white
linen cambria, plating both the waist
and skirt, and then over the plaits
around the neck, across the bust, and
Just below the hips place three gar
lands Of colored flowers. Make them
In this way:
Take wash ginghams OF the colors
required-say q pale green and pale
pink-cut five petaled flowers OF the
latter and heart shaped leaves Of the
former; then, apart from the dress
buttonhole stitch the edges with
coarse wash silk. This will make 9
substantial trimming which may theI
be sewed on the material In the way
suggested. connecting stems and ten
drills can be put in q running stitch
afterward with the green embroidery
silk.

The most satisfactory way to clean

suds made Of benzine or gasoline and

wrinkled, 1t may be pressed with a

The rinsing fluid may be poured from

Lieut.. Boyd Alexander, who has

scription of the curious inhabitants
OF the hitherto unexplored interior

Boobies" Very few of them havo

leave their primitive dwellings, in the
rocks except on organized drinking
bouts. The race is fast dying out
from the effects of rum and palm

The natives are mostly quite naked,
except for a curious straw bonnet.
They paint their bodies with colored
mud, are unspeakably filthy, for they
never wash, but occasionally use a
knife to scrape off the surface dirt,
and create artificial deformities by
tightly wrapping their limbs.
The Fernando Pc natives are ex.
ceedingly timid and when sighted by
the whites bolted into the depths of
the jungle, where they set up fear
some walls. At certain hours each
day the villages are quite deserted.

MRS. ROOSEVELT UNDIsTURBED

Handkerchief Gift.

The news that the women at Dallas.
Tex, are angry because Mrs. Roose-
Welt sent them ten-cent cotton
handkerchief in response to their re-
quest for gift which they might
sell at public entertainment for the
benefit of the local kindergarten has
apparently made little impression at
the white house. No information
was obtained as to the exact quality
or style of this handkerchief, but
the fact is that the applications for
such gifts during the winter. season
amount to at least 100 every week.
and these requests are invariably
granted by the presidents wife.
There is reason to believe that the
Dallas women are not alone in their
disappointment over the fact that
Mrs. Roosevelt has not responded to
their appeals by something at least
as valuable as a gold spoon or a dia-
mond necklace.
Yet the presidents salary is only
$4,000 a year, and his expenses are
quite heavy. 1t is said that the ap.
peals made to him and Mrs. Roose.
welt for donations to charitable and
other objects amount to good many
thousand dollars every year, if not
