The two ends should be fringed out
to the depth of half an inch. The
under part Of the pinholder, which
does not show when the whole thing
is hung up, consists of a strip of thick
flannel, both narrower and shorter

vandyked at the edges or should be
over-sewn with fancy buttonholing.
The dolls head is slipped first
through the hole in the flannel, then in
the opening in the ribbon. Take three
yards of three-eighths of an inch white
satin ribbon and cut the length in
three. Tie one piece round the dolls

of this as loop by which the holder
can be hung up. Sew the other two
pieces in the center, one on each side

For using up odd lengths of ribbon
about half an inch wide there are few
things more convenient than is the

firm cardboard is required for the

District Attorney Fletcher Dobyns

John r. Walsh, on trial for alleged

In the course of his address Mr.
Ritsher said it was probable that it
would be charged by the prosecution
that loans in excess of 10 per cent. of
the capital stock had been made to
certain companies. He said that this
was violation of the banking laws,
but did not constitute a criminal of
fense. Nearly every bank violated
the rules, he said and violations were
countenanced by the comptroller.

Of the preliminary hearing before JUS

The justice held that there was not

court would be warranted in binding
Mrs. Phillips over to the grand jury.
Although Mrs. Phillips is now free
the action of Justice Brown, however,

making an Independent Investigation,
it is stated, by the county prosecutor.
Mr.. Phillips was supposed to have
been shot by a burglar in his East

In all the wide range of Christmas

pretty piece of ribbon found on the

are comparatively inexpensive, and
the ingenious woman easily fashions
from them many a dainty and at

than it does her pocketbook. We give
here suggestions for a number of
pretty articles that may be made

widths.
1t is far easier to contrive smart
little knick-knacks from the wide rib

those of narrower maze. This is in
great measure due to the readiness
with which they may be converted into
charming little bags for holding hand

other odds and ends. One of the most
