embellishments. and, best Of all, with
n little practice the work can be done
at home.
And not only for its beauty is the
eyelet embroidery desirable, but es-
pecially for its durability. Years ago,
before machine embroidery could be
bought. this style Of work was used on
underclothes, for petticoat rufies, etc,
and baby clothes in particular were
beautifed in this way, whole yo1es and
front panels in dainty christening
robes being simply a mass Of the en-
broldery.
For the baby Of 1905 these little
robes are again being made, together
with caps, jackets and dainty bootees
and hats for older children. The work
is done with fine marking cotton, and
the round openings. or eyelets proper,
are made with a stiletto, the oval open
mgs being cut Before doing that
however, the outline is covered with a
fne even darning or running stitch,
begun at the pointed end Of the figure
and ending at the same place. Do not
cut the thread. The slit is made
through the center of the oval, first
lengthwise. then crosswise, and at the
round or wide end it will probably be
necessary to make two more slashes in
order that the linen may be turned
back smoothly to the wrong side along
the line of darning. Then begin at
the narrow end, working with the
same thread that was used to darn the
outline and cover the edge of the open
ing with a series Of fine over and over
stitches. each one lying close to but
not on top Of the stitch last made.
The cap shown in the first illustra-
ton is made of fine white linen, which
is almost entirely covered by the eye
let work. The design consists Of q
daisy-like figure surrounded by a trail
ing vine, the leaves of which are con
nected by an outlined stem. The edge
OF the cap is buttonholed, as are also
the ends of the ties, and the finished
cap is very pretty and just the thing
for baby's summer wear. For COO
DAYS a little silk lining Of white oI
color may be inserted, and If this lin
ing is made double and quilted, an in
terlining of soft flannel being first put
in. the cap may be used at all seasons
of the year.
The dainty bootees given in the mex
illustration show the same design a.
the two previous articles, but in them
selves are something Of a novelty. il
shape they resemble the kid bootees

Master Prynne, che weak. well mean
ing Puritan who in 1893 wrote an at
tack upon the stage. tells us that in
his day tobacco pipes were offered to
ladies' at the theater in lieu Of apples
between the acts. A French traveller,

lished his journal in 1877, confirms
this by telling us that he found smok-

well among women as among men.

"A nutmeg tree" said the gardener,

It keeps on bearing until It Is ninety.
The fruit resembles an apricot, and
when ripe it bursts open, showing at its
heart the black nutmeg inclosed in a

plucling must be dried. It IS dried
over a slow fire, and the process is te-
