MADE FROM HANDKERCHIEFs.

There is such a fad for making all
n of pretty and useful articles
from handkerchiefs that manufacture
ers have We'd with each other in the
production Of artistic effects in printed,
embroidered and lace trimmed hand
kerchiefs, especially for purposes Of
fancy work.
The handkerchief fad has unnum-
bered followers, for the reason that it
affords occupation of a simple and
easy character, and the results are al
ways of some use.
Pillow shams and cushion covers,
alike, are lovely when made of fine
lace trimmed handkerchiefs or finely
embroidered ones. There are so many
sizes Of these that one has only to use
the smallest size for cushion covers
and the largest for pillow shams. For
the centre a pretty idea is to have a
single handkerchief with a very deep
border, and then embroider the initial
in the centre of the square.
Handkerchiefs make charming ruff
feS and frillS for underwear. as the
corners are so decorative and can be
Joined or left separate at will.
A dainty scarf for a dressing table
Is made Of eight lace trimmed hand
kerchiefs, joined together at the
points Of the lace or with a narrow
lace beading. Ribbon is run through
the open spaces Of the points OF bead
ing, and bows are tied at the inter
sections of the landkerchiefs. Six of
these are sufficient for a small dress.
ing table, and three mems handker-
chiefs are sufficient for a scarf, where
large ones are used. They are joined
by lace beading, run through with
baby ribbon, and have a frill of lace
on the edges.
Embroidered ~handkerchiefs wear
better than lace ones do, and are al
most as effective. When plain hand.

BIG TRAY.

"A housewife who "does her own
work. has equipped herself with a big
serving tray, such as walters in hotels
use. When she is getting a meal ready
she sets this upon the kitchen table,
and as fast as the dishes for the table
are ready, she places them upon it
bread, butter, pickles, celery, etc. Then
she carries in everything at one trip,
thus making her head save her
heels" When the meal is over she
carries out the Dead" as they cali ii

a cheerful and satisfactory manner
The seventh was all suIlivan's. who

hurry-up whacks on the Jaw.
In the eighth DAILY landed effectively
on the jaw. but the Kid also went to

then go down from a third whack OF
the same kind. He recovered quickly
and sent right and left to the head.

Round 10 was a bad one for DAILY. He
went down twice from most encourage

fierce charge Sullivan rushed him
through the ropes. From that time on
Sullivan had things pretty much his
