WHEN MAKING
FANCY GUIMPES

In making the fancy guimpes so much
worn by both adults and children, the ma
terial should first be tucked, or spaces left
for the lace insertion, IL any be desired,
before cutting out.
The lace can then be basted on either
edge-fiat on the tucked material-and the
fabric cut away from underneath.
Leave about a quarter of an inch on each
side of the lace, Turn this back on the
material and stitch on the edge of the lace,
Finish with feather stitches done with
crochet or mereerized cotton, as preferred.
This makes a very pretty finish, and en-
ables the garment to bear repeated laun-
behring's without the material fraying away
from the lace. as II is apt 10 do In the case
OF most ready-made garments,

We are too apt to fall down under
the burden of trouble. We lack the
courage to pull ourselves together in

We need TO hustle while we wait.
What we are waiting for may be a

The life, character and writings of Wal
ter Bagehot, the essayist, were ably dis
cussed by Miss Laura Hannahs, at the
literary meeting of the College Woman's
Club, held in the Free Public Library,
yesterday afternoon. Miss Hannahs gave
a summary OF his career, of his work In
France, and of the seven letters which he
wrote back TO England while In that coun-
try, and which rank high in the world of
literature.
She then told Of his character, and of
the keen humor which made both him and
his writings worth while. She said that
he was possessed of unusually keen In
sight into character and human nature;
that he hated false sentiment and thai he
scorned anything Intellectually feeble. HE
hated false sentiment said Miss Han
nahs, "and thought the search for truth
a difficult one. All through his life he
thought the world would be a better place
If the people in it would consider more
deeply what they did. Miss Hannahs
added that more quotable phrases were to
be found in his writings than in those of
almost any other author.
OF his religious belief, she said that che
believed in God, and that we are answer
able to a divine Justice. but he also be-
lieved in the free will of man"
Miss Hannahs told of his writings while
editor of the National Review and The
Economist, which have since been pub
lished in essay form. She declared that
she liked his essay on Shakespeare better
than anything he wrote, and she gave a
number of quotations expressive of the
cynical humor of the writer, interpreting
them with short paragraphs from the more
serious parts of his essays.
One of his letters was read by Miss
Jessie Dreamer.

NEW SKIRT LINES.

Some changes in the skirt lines aud the
length Of the skirts are reported from
Paris, hut these are incidental. rather
than radical changes. which viii not ma
ferially affect the style of the skirt.
There Is a tendency to eliminate pleats,
and in their places put numerous CORES,
after the fashion of the umbrella skirt of
fnulti-gore flare and width.
There is a tendency to introduce models
showing a combination OF plain and fancy
materlals-plaids, stripes or the like-in
panel construction, TO popularlze the tunio
skirt and so on,
The tendency, however, points 10 the
great vogue of the pleated skirt in its
several Varieties. In other words, the
pleated skirt will likely remain at the head
of the list, since it is generally beeom-
ing TO all figures and offers a greater trim
ming scope than most other models.

or lemonade glasses, the fruit cut into
small squares and very cold. This may
be on the table when the guests come
into the room. For the second course,
II fish is TO be served. creamed fish au
gratin Is excellent, since this may stand
for some time after cooking without
injury to its excellence. Fish may he

THE VALUE OF A
SHOEMAKER'S ANVIL.

A shoemaker's awl, costing FIVE cents, Is
one of the tools that should be on every
sewing machine. 1t IS the only thing to
pull out corners when turning collars,
cuffs or bands; for marking places for
hooks and eyes, buttons and button holes
by piercing through both hens of waist;
for ripping out hastings or pulling out
thread when ripping out stitching. In
making small eyelets In embroidery or
for inserting buttons. Likewise a mans
pocketknife is a handy thing to have in
the sewing room to use in ripping, cutting
off buttons. taking out hastings, etc.
