John and Jim agreed to settle a difference by fighting 1t out. t was understood that whoever wanted to quit should cry 'nough!" John got Jim down and was hammering him soundly, when Jim cried 'nough.' But John paid no attention to his cry and kept on pounding him. Again and again Jim called out 'nough!

 Serge is a good material for the coy- ering, but, if thinner fabric only is available, it is as well to line it first wiht thin flannel or even with calico, or something left over from the family dressmaking. The narrow ribbons are arranged in lattice-fashion, as evenly as possible, across the front of the holder after it has been covered. It will be seen from the illustration that the bands are so arranged as to inter lace and, at every point at which they meet, a brass paper fastener is run through them and to the wrong side of the board where it is secured in the usual way. As much trimming as the worker pleases may be added in the way of bows or rosettes of rib bOns.
 The absence of a sensible pocket in the skirt of a fashionable dress is sore grievance with many people. Rather than be without a pocket. they would be pleased enough to have a costume of less modish cut, but such a thing is beyond the powers of a good dressmaker, part of whose bUsi- ness it is to run with the times and to make costumes as demanded by the fashion, whether they are practical or not. This is apt to press hardly upon middle-aged and elderly ladies, and they are obliged to resort to the eXpe- dient of attaching a pocket to the out side of their skirts in which to keep the various trifles that are in most frequent use.
 The making of such pocket affords an opportunity for turning to account about three-quarters of yard of soft black satin reversible ribbon five inches and a half wide The pocket has an inner compartment in which a small purse may be slowed away, the handkerchief being carried in the outer division. Cut off five inches and a half of the ribbon. Hem it along each of the cut edges, and lay it on the main piece of the ribbon, so that it's lower margin is 13 inches and half from one end Stitch it down along the bottom edge and for the present, tack it to the sides of the foundation ribbon, as we may call IL

waist. At one side the ribbons may be nearer the waist than on the other. They must be tied in bows with long loops. A trimming of lace will hide imperfections round the neck and very narrow, soft ribbon may be added in the hair.
 For using up odd lengths of ribbon about half an inch wide there are few things more convenient than is the letter or cardholder. A piece of very firm cardboard is required for the foundation. If this is not at hand, pos sibly two thinner pieces are to be had. They will answer as well if they are firmly gummed together. Any size and any shape may be chosen. Some workers may not care about the straight form of the model, and, If this is the case, they may cut the

RIBBON REMNANTS
THEY MAKE THE VERY DAiNTl- EST OF CHRISTMAS PRESENTS.
May Be Easily Fashioned Into Innu merable Pretty and Useful Article That Will Be
 Appreciated.

Tn all the wide range of Christmas present making there is nothing that offers so many opportunities as the pretty piece of ribbon found on the remnant counters of the stores. They are comparatively inexpensive, and the ingenious woman easily fashions from them many a dainty and at tractiye article of personal adorn- ment or home decoration that will be all the more appreciated for the req son that it represents her work more than it does her pocketbook. We give here suggestions for a number of pretty articles that may be made from ribbon of different colors and widths.
 It is far easier to contrive smart little ickknacks from the wide rib bons than it is to turn to account those of narrower make. This is in great measure due to the readiness with which they may be converted into charming little bags for holding hand kerchief and purse, or for work, and other odds and ends. One of the most uncommon models that requires only yard of ribbon five and half to six inches wide is the double bag shown in the Illustration
 The bag from which our picture was taken was made of an exceedingly handsome ribbon of striped design Heliotrope, white and black velvet bands were effectively combined. A thinner kind of ribbon, such as a chine taffetas, could well be chosen and might we'll be sought out because it is generally to be had in specially beautiful shadowy designs, with plain colored stripes running down the edges. Our bag is so solid, the rib

Turn up the ribbon beyond the bottom of this small pocket, and after hem ming the cut end, Oversew the sides together to make the larger pocket. Sew the sides of the smaller pocket in with this seam. The upper edge should set about an inch below the top of the shallOwer pocket already made.
 The front of this part of our bag may be ornamcnted in any way the worker pleases Ii is a good plan to sew lace applique in the center, using fine crcam-colored cotton to match it exactly. The top of the pock. ct may be either bound or hemmed. as preferred. 1t must be pleated up as narrowly as it can be and finished with a bow or rOsctte At the back a large hook should be sewn on by which the pocket can be attached to tie waist
 Similar receptacles for handker. chiefs, keys and other triHes may bo made. if preferred, with one division instead of two, Also ribbon of a nar. rover width may be employed if the pocket is to contain nothing lmors than @ handkerchief.
