dainty and useful sewing bag may
be made of two yards of ribbon and
about five or six inches wide. The rib
Ion is divided into four strips of equal
length, then the four ends are joined
together by laying the selvage or side
of one over the end that is cut off the
next piece, the raw end being turned
under and hemmed along the edge and
then run along or hemmed at the bor-
der of the selvage. When this is done
correctly the ribbon will form a square,
with each piece of the ribbon lying out
at right angles to the next.
Turn each piece of ribbon so that
the selvages meet and overland them
together for about seven and a half
inches. This done, there is a square
down over the sides. A piece of silk
binding one inch wide must then be
put all around the inside OF the bag,
coming just to where the joining of the
selvages ceases.
There is an opening or huttonhole to
be cut in two sides of this tape and a
soft taffeta or satin ribbon an inch
in width is run through it and this is
tied in a pretty bowknot or loop so
that 1t cannot run out when the bag
is stretched wide open. When gathered
in tight at the top the bias ends stand
up like a pretty ruff1e, or if the ribbon
is especially soft these ends fall down
prettily over the bag itself. The bias
ends of the ribbon may be simply hem
med or feather stitched

Housewives are painfully aware with
what rapidity substantial pots and
pans suddenly become unfit for use un-
der the reign of a careless maid.
All pots and pans in constant use
should occasionally be subject to
cleansing process. This is best done
by putting all the necessary articles
into a large boiler of boiling water
to which a good handful of washing
soda has been added, then sufficient
Clipped soap to produce a good lather.
Allow them to boil for five minutes,
then remove from the stove and when
cool enough TO put the hands in scrub
each piece with a small hand scrub.
Now lift them out all soapy and plunge
in clear boiling water for a minute,
then lift out and dry carefully. Steel
and iron ware are often treated to the
soap and sand method, although the
steel requires a frequent polishing of
brickbat or sapolio.

FOR MADAM AND MADEMOISELLE
BY SUSIE SNITHERS.

Pink ribbons are given the preference
this season.
How Gowns are Made.
Gowns have the wide. short sleeves
of the bell or kimono type. Some are
slit almost to the shoulder and are
deliberately trimmed with lace and en-
broidery, to correspond with the neck
trimming. Chemises are frequently
cut in circular shape. so that they fit
smoothly across the shoulders and are
arranged at the waistline in the back
in a box or inverted plat. Some are
held in place at the waistline by means
of a moderately wide ribbon run
through embroidered beading. These
are generally trimmed around the bot
tom with a four-inch ruffe.

VEILINGS.

This is pre- eminently a season Of nov
elites in yeilings. Scarcely a week
passes that there Is not to be found
some new and attractive styles in wells.
and this Is especially true Of the ele-
CANT and expensive lace veil.
That America Is not behind Paris in
its acceptance of the new styles in lace
wells is evidenced by the fact that
French correspondent during the past
month has made particular mention of
striking novelty in the lace veil used
by some Of the leading Partisan millin-
ers and which is already being worn
by some of the ultra fashionable New
York women for carriage use This
veil is of black point d'esprit with
delicate border of black lace. The veil
Is cut to fit the hat and is curved in
the upper part, being wider in the back
than in the front. This is done so that
1t will not be bulky about the crown
and brim and yet that it may lie in
pretty folds about the face, just touch
ing the shoulders all around. 1t is
permanently attached to the hat, being
placed beneath the trimming. The hat
with which it is most correct is the
large bell shape
chiffon Veil Holds It's Own.
The chiffon veil holds it's own as the
most practical and suitable article for
automobile purposes and is invariably
used for this purpose when long rides
are in prospect. But when 1T is a
jaunt about the city streets or in the
park which is contemplated the bor-
dered lace and net wells are frequently
worn,A because the ride is then in the
nature Of a dress parade.
new idea in the wearing of the
chiffon veil for automobile purposes has
been adopted by some of the fashion
able set. A short chiffon veil is ar
ranged over the face, so as to thor
ouhgly protect it from the sun and
wind. The longer veil, which is of the
same material and color as the short
one, is then laid over the hat so as to
come we'll in front of the ears and is
pinned to the center of the crown and
to the brim at each side. This veil is
sufficiently wide to come well down
over the neck in the back, while the
ends are drawn forward and tied in a
| bow under the chin.

proved p contain joyful news. Mr.
Beecot thanked heaven that Paul was
not such fool as he had been of yore
and limited that this sudden access of
sense which had led him to engage
himself to a wealthy girl had come
from his father and not from his
mother. He-Beecot senior-was aware
that Paul had acted badly and had not
remembered what was due to the best
of fathers, but since he was prepared
to settle down with rich wife, Beecot
senior nobly forgave the past and
Paurs many delinquencies mentioned
in detaiD and would be glad to well

cot, becoming the tyrant again, insist
ed that the marriage should take place
in Wargrove and that the fact of
Sylvia's father being murdered should
be suppressed. In fact. the old gen
tleman left nothing to the young couple,
but arranged everything in his own
selfish way, even to choosing, in War
grove, the house they would inhabit
Paul, facing the situation, bravely
wrote to his father anu explained how
the fortune had passed from Sylvia,
but declared with all the romance of
youth that he intended to marry the
girl all the same. If Beecot senior, said
Paul, would permit the marriage and
allow the couple a small income until
the husband could earn enough to keep
the pot boiling, the writer would be
grateful. If not, Paul declared firmly
that he would work like a slave to
make a home for his darling. But
nothing In the world would make him
give up Sylvia.
AS Paul entered he heard a heavy
woman plunge down the stairs and
found his arm grasped by Deborah,
very red faced and very furious. the
moment he crossed the threshold. Bart
could be heard knocking boxes togeth-
er in the cellar, as he was getting Deb
orah's belongings ready for removal
to Jubileetown, where the cottage and
the drying ground for the laundry had
already been secured through Pash.
But Paul had no time to ask what was
going on. A glance at the handmade
ems fearful face revealed that she
knew the worst in which case Sylvia
must also have heard the news.

Many appetizing salads may be made
of different combinations of salad
greens. Endive and mandarin salad is
good. Use only the white leaves of
the endive, and wipe them with a damp
cloth Put them in a salad bowl, and
add an equal quantity of sliced rad
ishes and shredded mandarin pulp.
Make a French dressing with tara
gon vinegar, toss the salad lightly
with a silver or wooden fork, and when
we'll mixed garnish with round radishes
cut into roses. Fruit salads should
never be dressed with any but tara
gop vinegar.

LINGERIE.

Garments Of French manufacture
have been widely heralded at prices
ranging from $3.50 to $35, and the fact
that buyers of leading retail houses
have seen fit to feature these imported
garments is worthy of the utmost con-
sideration, for it is strong evidence
that the public demand tends that way.
Again, the fact that high grade speci-
atty shops are making window displays
of French chemises at SIS cents, is a
matter to be taken into account. To be
sure, the material of which these gar
ments are constructed is of a rather
coarse quality, but the fact that they
are daintitly hand embroidered direct
ly to the material evidently goes a
long way with the consumer.
French UndermusIins Features.
There is scarcely department store
in this vicinity which is not featuring
French undermuslins at a popular price.
The reason for this procedure is con-
sidered to be the better wearing quail
ties OF the ornamentation which, as
it is done directly to the material of
which the garment is made. insures it's
lasting as long as the garment itself.
In ready made undergarments we are
which obtained in the early seventies,
when home or voncent made garments
were the rue and not the exception, and
when they were expected to last, not
few weeks or months, but throughout
the entire year.
Another factor to be reckoned with
in the increasing interest shown In
French undermuslins is the increasing
interest shown in stamped patterns of
this description. These being widely
advertised by retailers who cater to the
best trade and at prices which insure
their receiving quick attention from the
woman who is sufficiently clever with
her needle to execute the embroidery in
a satisfactory manner.
Skirts are decorated with knee-deep
embroidered or lace trimmed flounces,
the more elaborate and expensive
styles being ornamented with headings
at the top of the founces, through
which are run wide colored ribbons.

Official Notice of Route Z.

1t is with commendation that

the Post Office Department con-
corning complaint of inefficient
mail service. In a recent issue of
our paper we recited the seeming
impracticibility of the change of

the Logan postofilce to that
of Webb Summit. We mailed

Fourth Assistant Postmaster Cen
eral at Washington, and though
We, of closer touch to the lay of
the land in this county, do not
agree with the explanation of the
government officer as to the best
course for the route to take, yet
We highly appreciate the prompt
taking of the matter up by the de-
partment.

Fire Alarm.

Perhaps the first time in six
months, an alarm of fire was turn
ed in Saturday night. Driver
Ham Meldrim made a very sue
cessful run to west Logan, but
upon arrival at the blaze, it was
under control, and no hydrant
pressure was necessary. The fire
was ia the old Woltz building,
now occupied by Mr. Fred Downs.
The damage done was very small.

The Minister'S Son.

IL would be difficult to say too
much in appreciation of the true
merit OF Macauley & Patton's pro-
duction of "The Minister'S Son.
The play is one that touches the
hearts of the people. 1t is not only
rich in sentiment but abounds in a
vein of humor that is different
from anything else that has been
seen. In fact, the play may be
said to be of type of it's own,
from the rise of the curtain on the
the first act to the close of the last
scene. One of the critics In st.
Louis said that the audience went
away feeling that they were really
better for having seen the play
and haG double their money g
worth. 1t is remarkable for the
number of its characters, each one
of which is necessary to the story,
and the uniform strength with
which each one is presented. There
are two old men characters, and
each Is taken with fidelity that
recalls the days of Couldock in the
earlier days of "Hazel Kirke. 4"
The juyanile characters are equally
we'll taken. "The Minister'S Son"
is a modern drama. The charm of
the play lies in its idyllic qualities,
the tenderness and daintiness of
It's love story sand the unique way
IN which it is presented.
This attraction comes to the
Logan Opera House on Wednesday,
October 10th.
