Lace for Ankles,

A pair of lace medalions, left over
from the summer frock, can be put to
excellent use in trimming stockings
to match the gown.
For instance, with pongee gown
piped with lace medalions, plain pair
of tan Isle stockings were made very
smart by the use of lace medalions,
one just above each instep.
They were first appliqued on the
stockings with silk thread, in very
fine stitches, then the Isle beneath
was cut away, and then edges Of the
stocking buttonhole stitched closely
and finely to the wrong side of the
medallion. Worn with brown suede
shoes, they gave dainty finishing
touch to the costume.

What He Needed.

Admiral Walker, since becoming
one of the Panama Canal Commission
ess, has had his patience somewhat
tried by persons who have been to
the isthmus giving him gratuitous in
formation concerning the climate
there.
One man informed him that after
returning from journey to the place
he went to his physician to learn if
he had malaria in his system. The
doctor showed him drop of his
blood under the microscope, and"
said the narrator, ut was full of the
microbes of malaria. They looked like
a lot of lively potato bugs"
'Then what you need. l should
think" said the admiral dryly, would
be a dose of insect powder"

ERRORS OF THE TYPES.
A Few of the Misprints That Shorten
Editors Lives.

Editors Lives.
At a literary dinner in New York
C. d. Gibson, the illustrator, quoted a
number of amusing misprints for sew
eral years, and already had in his
collection 200 good specimens.
He first quoted misprint about
bishop who was confined to the house
with a violent cold. The newspaper
that mentioned the prelate's illness
said he was confined to the house
with a violent scold."
Another quotation concerned Brit.
ish nobleman who had Joined party
of friends in Hampshire for the pur'
pose of shooting pheasants. This
the compositor had made to read:
"He has joined a party of friends in
Hampshire for the purpose of shoot
ing peasants

an old and famous misprint, and you
may have heard of it before. You
may, too, have heard of the one about
a surgeon taken alive in the river
that sold for six cents pound But

of the misprint that appeared last
