A Irvine holder is made of strips Of linen
tied over a square box, which is just big
enough for a small ball. The box is two
and a half inches cube and has no cover.
There are two strips of brown linen, each
two and half inches wide by ten inches
long after they are bound with half-inch
ribbon. The strips end in points shaped to
form a perfect square over the top of the
box. These strips cross each other on the
bottom of the box and are brought up to
cover the opposite sides. To the height Of
the box they are sewed together over and
over. Then the box is slipped inside with
the Irvine and each two of the opposite
points at the top are tied together with a
bow. A long loop is left at one point with
which to hang the bag. The Irvine is
threaded through the middle of the bottom
Of both box and bag. One such receptacle
Is OF brown linen bound and tied with holly
red ribbon. On side is painted a mis-
chievous kitten with a green ribbon bow
at its neck and green string in a knot at
it's feet. Tangles Of green Irvine decorate
the other sides and green string hangs
from the bottom. Another is decorated
with holly and mistletoe. The Irvine here is
red.

is a craze for candles. 1 dearly love can
dies. Nothing pleases me better than to
hear my mother tell how grandmother used
to make candles in those slow old days
before lamps and electric lights made life
too easy. To my mind, there is nothing
so beautiful as candlelight-the gentle glim-
mer and gloom of one candle in a room, or
the brilliant twinkling of many such soft
and lovely lights. On nights when 1 have
not been out anywhere, to divert my usual
sentimental, quiet moods with the hurry
and furry of social contact, I go to bed
leisurely by the light of one red candle in
my grandmothers tall, old-fashioned brass
candlestick. OF course, such little bit
of light makes it rather difficult; 1 fall
over things and lose things and can't see
where all my belongings are, but those
drawbacks rather give relish to the per-
Torrance.
Recently 1 have reread Henry James's
curious story. Affairs of the Dead and 1t
prompted me to devise what call an Altar
to the Living Near my one candle, on
these candle-lit nights. 1 place the picture
of some cherished friend-sometimes the
my candle burned IN his or her honor. 1
mediate on my friend. or on my book
friend. and get into my bed with a head
full Of pleasant thoughts. Perhaps I'm a
trife silly, but what of it? We are, all
but children of larger growth, and surely
have a right to choose our own playthings."

Shirrings continue to be the smartest OF
all smart things and appear to increase in
number week by week. This attractive
waist shows them used in both waist and
sleeves, so managed as to give the fash
ionable broad effect, and again in the deep
corselet belt. The model is made of cream
crepe de Chine, with the yoke of tucked
chiffon and the trimming of cream vene-
tan lace. but any material soft enough
to admit of shirring can be substituted.
The garniture of lace is specially to be
noted as it combines a bertha of novel
shape with shoulder straps that fall well

AT the Opening of the Opera Season

At the Opening of the Opera Season.
New York Evening Post.
The one-color effect was marked In most
of the gowns. All white or all blue. or all
pink was seen everywhere one looked. Col
ors relieved by white lace were infrequently
observed. The one-color idea seems to pre-
vail. Two more general tendencies We're
noted; natural flowers were little worn,
there being few bouquets in the boxes, and
practically none at all elsewhere. A girl in
white with a mass of American Beauty
roses covering her corsage was conspic-
uous figure in one of the boxes, because of
the absence of flowers around her. A few
great punches of violets with a purple or
child or a gardenia in the center were seen
but in general it may be said that flowers
are little passe this season. Another nota-
BILE feature was the matter of the couture.
The hair is worn lower and less elabor-
ately pulled this year than last No one
wears the English fringe" Many and
beautiful, however, are the hair ornaments
worn. All sorts of ribbon decorations,
roses, rosettes, twisted bows, ETC., are pop
ular, and for state occasions, like the opera
jewels, aigrettes and ostrich feathers, are
to be fashionable. One beautifully dressed
woman wore in her hair jeweled orna-
ment from which rose a stiff feather fully
six inches long. A few young girls had
their hair dressed with flowers, artificial, of
course. Natural flowers are out of place
in the hair. One very blonde girl in white
lace had her abundant locks decorated with
scarlet peoples, the one touch Of color in
her costume.

rr Continued from last week. d

while their riders, wounded or un-
hurt, had been picked up and spirited
away with the marvellous skill only
known to these warriors Of the
plains. e%
Then Ray and his men had time to
breathe and shout laughing comment
and >congratulation. Not one, as yet,
was hit or hurt. They were secure
for the time in q strong position, and
had signally whipped off the first as
sault of the Sioux.
Loudly, excitedly, angrily these
latter were now comforting again far
up the slope to the north. At least
100 in one concourse, they were hav-
ing hot discussion over the untoward
result of the dash. Others, obedient
to orders from the chief we're circling
far out to east and west and cross
ing the valley above and below the
position of the defense. Others, still,
were galloping back to the ridge,
where, against the sky line, strong
bodies of warriors could be plainly
seen, moving excitedly to and fro.
Two little groups slowly making
their way to the crest gave no little
comfort to the boys in blue. Some,
at least, of the charging force had
been made to feel the bite of the
cavalry weapon and were being
borne to the rear.
But no time was to be wasted. AL
ready from far up the stream bed
two or three Indians were hazard
ing long-range shots at the grove,
and Ray ordered all horses into a
bend of the ''wash," where the side
lines were whipped from the blanket
straps and the excited sorrels Sc
curely hopp1ed. Then, here, there
and in score of places along the
bank and again at the edge of the
cottonwoods, men had been assigned
their stations and hidden to find
cover for themselves without delay.
Many burrowed IN the soft and yield
ing soil, throwing the earth forward
in front of them. Others utilized
fallen trees or branches. Some two
or three piled saddles and blanket
rolls into low barricade, and all,
while crouching about their work,
watched the feathered warriors as
they steadily completed their big cir
Gle far out on the prairie. Bullets
came whistling now fast and fre-
quently, nipping off leaves and twigs
and causing many a fellow to duck
instinctively and to look about him,
ashamed Of his dodge>yet sure of the.
fact that time had been in the DAYS
of the most hardened veteran of the
troop when he, too, knew what it
was to shrink from the whistle of
hostile lead. It would be but mo-
ment or two, they all understood,
before the foe would decide on the
next move; then every man would
be needed. s - ;
Meantime, having stationed Field
on the north front, with orders to
note every movement of the Sioux,
and having assigned Clayton to the
minor duty of watching the south
front and the fianks, Ray was moving
cheerily among his men, speeding
from cover to cover, suggesting
