The latest sewing bag is easy to do.
For It cut two squares OF silk or linen
Of exactly the same size. In one Of
them cut square opening from one 10
six inches wide each way, according to
the size Of the bag. Join the two pieces
by a row Of feather stitching and run
another row Of the stitching around the
small opening, which, OF course. comes
on top. Now sew gilt rings here and
there all along the edges of the wee
opening. Run through them a ribbon
matching the color OF the goods, and
you have q thoroughly artistic bag for
sewing or other feminine purposes.
Pretty embroidered canvas stocks have

made into elaborate corset covers. The
consecutive lines of beading run with
the bebe ribbon, finishing at the top

are more an article Of regular wearing

CARRIAGE IS EVERYTHING.

Plainness is an insurmountable fact,
but il can he offset TO a degree that is
simply incOnceivable by the manner OF

people you know who hold themselves

little a plain or handsome face weighs
in the general impression given by such
persons. One need neither be a Bern

Sunday will be great day in Athena
for church people. The event will be
the dedication of the beautiful new
Methodist Episcopal church building,
and large number of visitors from
abroad will be here. In the long chap
ter OF church work in this city the dedi-
catory exercises on this occasion will be
one Of more than local interest. Every
Methodist congregation in Eastern Ore
gon and Washington is interested in the
dedication of the splendid edifice, for
the reason that it stands as monument
to the spirit of progress in the work of
Methodism.

ATHENA. APRIL 20. 1904

The good people of Portland, headed
by some of the most prominent citizens
in all walks of life, are about to inaugu-
rate crusade against vice. The papers
OF the metropolis are teeming with artic-
les on the subject and long editorials
tell how "to save the young" Gambl-
ing places and the denizens of White
chapel are to be cleaned out bag and
baggage. The leading spirits in the
movement say that this crusade is to be
conducted on different lines from any
other. Absolute proof is to be offered
OF every individual crime and evil
sought to be eradicated. Similar move
ments have been started in other cities
east and west. Similar movements have
met defeat in the past, but the character
of the crusade now being waged lends
belief that right and purity can accom-
plish something. 1t is understood that
such movement will be started in
Baker City in the near future, and that
this wide open mining camp will, meta
phorically speaking, be put in straight
jacket. 1t remains to be seen whether
the church people and leaders here have
the courage of their convictions or not

Dandelions are becoming a great him
drance to lawn making in Athena. The
nuisance of this obnoxious plant is be-
coming more manifest each successive
year. Apparently the custom OF ap.
plying the knife to the dandelion root
has no blighting effect that is noticeable.
On the contrary some aver that the prac-
tice tends to increase the size OF the
plant. A pinch of salt administered
after the plant has been cut is claimed
to be the only efiectual method Of de-
struetion.
