will be closed for an indefinite period.
The talk on the streets indicates that
the feeling against the manufacturers
is quite as bitter among the norl-union
operatives as it is among those who
are affiliated with the labor organiza-
tions.
John Golden, President Of the United
Textile Workers of America, the leader
of the strike, has cautioned the opera
tives not to go near the mills. Many
wild threats have been made by an un-

Shaving Balls and Pads.
The shaving balls are sure to please
big brothers, because they are always
hunting for papers on which to clean
their razors.
Get one dozen sheets of delicate
pink tissue paper and out OF them cut
round pieces the size of small plate.
Take hold of each piece in the middle,
pinching it betTeen the thumb and
forefinger and draw it lightly through
the other hand, crushing it the least
little bit. After all the pieces have
been gone over in this way take a
darning needle with stout darning cot
ton and string each piece by running
the needle through the middle. It
will be necessary to shape the ball as
you work, always taking care to keep
it round and even. Push the paper
down tight so the ball will be solid.
When it is perfectly round fasten pink
satin ribbon down in the middle for it
to hang by, and finish the top with
bow having short loops and long ends.
Shaving pads are much easier made
than the balls, but not quite so pretty.
For this you will require a dozen
sheets OF paper. Cut heart shaped

many hearts as the paper will allow.

I wandered by the mill;

The noisy wheel was still;
There was no burr Of grasshopper.
No chirp of any bird,
But the beating of my own heart
Was all the sound l heard.
I sat beneath the elm tree;
I watched the long, long shade,
And. as it grew still longer
did not feel afraid;
For listened for a football,
l listened for word
But the beating Of my own heart
Was all the sound I heard
He came not, no, he came not,
Tie night came Oh alone.
The little stars sat, one by one,
Each on his golden throne:
The evening wind passed by my cheek
The leaves above were stirred,
But the beating of my own heart
Was all the sound / heard.
Fast silent tears were flowing,
When something stood behind;
hand was on my shoulder,
l knew it's touch was kind;
It drew me nearer-nearer-
We did not speak one word,
For the beating of our own hearts
Was all the sound we heard.

and not because she does not like the
nice ones better. Cheesecloth is so
soft that it will not scratch polished
wood, therefore it is the best material
to choose. It is quite wide and costs
only five cents per yard. It takes one
yard for each cloth, so six yards would
make half a dozen dust cloths that
any housekeeper would be glad to
own.
AS the cheesecloth is yard wide,
it will be necessary to cut it of in
squares. Take each piece and turn
in the edges, making a narrow hem,
and when that is done either hem
with common white thread, or, if
you know any fancy stitch. use some
bright colored yarn and hem that
way instead. After the cloths are all
finished fold them in small squares,
pile them on top of each other and
tie together with some pretty ribbon,
making dainty bow on the top.
Knife and Fork Case.
For the girl who can sew little
on the machine knife and fork case
is an easy thing to make, and will
keep the silver from furnishing or
becoming scratched. One yard OF
white Canton flannel is all the ma.
tcrial required. Double the material
lengthwise, with the rough side turn
ed IN. That will bring the two sci.
wages together. Turn the frayed edges
at each end in and stitch down. That
leaves only one side open. Next take
ruler. and witt "a pencil mark off
spaces like the illustration ION one
side only. Stitch with machine along
these lines. When you have finished
you will have a neat case with little
compartments just wide enough to
slip in knife and FORK. When they
are in the case may be rolled up and
put in the silver drawer.
Corset Sachet.
The girl who has had a little more
experience in sewing ma attempt
more difficult things. A corset sachet
would delight any woman who is fond
OF delicate perfumes. They are easy
