THE CHRISTMAS EMBROIDERY.

Two girls who know a great deal
about embroidery and very little of
any other kinds OF fancy work. were
showing their Christmas products to
some friends. 1t is really astonishing
how many things can be made with the
ordinary kinds of embroidery. There
was a necktie rack. which one of them
had made for her brother. To be sure
the man won't appreciate the embroid-
cry part Of it, but as the girl said.
His wife VIII enjoy it. and he VIII
use it."
The foundation was an oval board
about foot long. padded and covered
with heavy raw colored linen. The
embroidery design was Wallachian,
done in heavy floss of a darker brown
On to this was screwed a common nick
el towel rack and the whole was hung
up by a piece of brown silk cord. In
daintier colors. this would make an ex-
quisite gift for the mannish girl who
is indul ging in string ties this season.
Do you ever wonder what comes of
thousands of calendars which change
hands every Christmas? One observ-
ing young lady declares that most OF
them are little more than Christmas
cards, and are probably thrown away
with the dried up Christmas trees.
There really is q place for beautiful
calendar, however, and nothing could
be priettier than the little embroidered
design one Of these girls was making.
Twas done with white daisies, on q
background of blue linen. The pad was
not more than four by six inches and
there were fe whowers on it. but their
little yellow centers made them very
effective. The tiny pad can be changed
from year to year SO that the calendar
Will be perennial
Another gift in the making was a
chatting dish centerpiece of tan linen
embroidered in the cunningest little
rabbits Six of them scampered across
the plain background like a flight OF
butterflies on a Japanese handkerchief

quite opposite to this is the warm

On they went AS the short day
ended and darkness came they steered
farther to the left, for there was a
possible danger of pitching over the
river bank. When they approached
the coulee the same peril again met
them. Shadrach, however, insured
them against accident. He struck his
own trail and knew II. At once he
quickened his speed. pulling the reins
taut. Behind him his master, though
utterly wearied. kept awake to watch
their course and commend him kindly.
Not so the section boss. His anger
finally spent he put up his crutch and
made himself comfortable. Then. sway

at headquarters was bright. Colonel
Cummings and a surgeon were re-

thews, attended by a watchful ser
geant, was having his hair cut by the
citizen barber; while Lounsbury, too
joyfully excited to sleep, was in the
suffers billiard room giving Fraser
who was about to depart with the ex-
petition, sympathetic history of the
Lancasters-a history in which Mary
lyn was shrewdly made the dainty
central figure.
AT 5 o'clock, everything being in
readiness, a livelier activity prevailed.
The outgoing troop was routed from

And soon the detachment-protect
from the cold by blanket coats and
with black cutties burning down the
whole length of it's double line-was

The men went gladly, accepting the
long ride as a welcome relief to the
stagnation of a garrison winter. To
them the possible dangers of the trip
were a mere matter of course. though
Guy Y. Henry's march of twelve
month before-a terrible march from
Fort Robinson into the Black Hills

Oliver commanded, B troop being his

fire and swinging the coffee pail into
place.
The old men heard her story before
they stepped from the sleigh. The
evangelist as he listened thanked his
/ God for Lounsbury. The section boss,
on the contrary, was made so angry
by the recital Of Matthews attack that
he called down every manner Of pun
ishment upon the latter and reveled in
multiple plans for sweet revenge.
