TO KEEP PAPER PATTERNS

Every home dressmaker knows how
provoking it is to search for the pa
per pattern that cannot be found.
Bundle after bundle of tissue paper
has to be opened and looked over.
Tissue paper patterns have a way OF
all looking alike after they have been
used. Too often the picture that
came with the pattern gets lost.
Some housekeepers mark their pat
terms by tying around each one a
piece Of the goods for which 1t was
last used. That plan works well
enough so long as the person VINO
tied up the pattern is the one who Is
searching for 1t. But a new seam
stress will be much puzzled by such
a method Of identification.
The best plan of all is 70 use large
manila envelopes. Fasten these TO
gether like the leaves of a book.
Don't sew them with thread, how
ever. Use a fine wire-the wire on
an old broom handle answers admir-
ably.
Allow the wire to be loose enough
for the envelope to have room after
the bulky pattern has been put into
II. The envelopes should have so
much space on the wires that hold
them together that they can be easily
slipped up and down.

GRACEFUL LINES PREVAIL

Whether the seasons gown have a
trailing or pedestrian skirt, grace
Will be found in each. Two silk
frocks by Paquin are typical of both
styles, the first being checked pom
gee in pale gray, the checks being in
broken lines of black and fiamingo
pink. The skirt is ankle length, fin
ished with deep hem and trimmed
with bands of pink silk stitched up
the front and around the bottom. The
front is laid in box plaits, which are
stitched down closely to the knees,
giving an unusually severe princess
effect, but rising above the waist line
is the most delightful little square
/ cut Elton jacket trimmed with gray
taffetas stitched with pink silk bands
and finished with little silk tassels in
the same shade. There T. only slight
V-shaped opening at the neck, expos
ing yoke and collar of lace, and this
is finished with revers of braided taf-
fetas. The sleeves are elbow-length,
with cuffs to match the reVers and a
gray horsehair braid hat trimmed
| with pink roses completes the Co.'S
tune.
The second toilette, also in pink
silk, is a one-piece affair, but instead
of an Elton there rises above the waist
line bias folds of the silk, scalloped
along the edge and arranged in fichu
effect over the shoulders and outlin-
Los Angeles herald., 1907-03-31

ing little round yoke of lace at the
back. A vest of the same lace is set
into the front of the gown and finish
ed with a border of braid, the ends
of which are fastened at the bust line
with handsome buckle and a jabot
of soft yellow lace.
The skirt touches the floor at the
front and sides, lengthening itself L.
TO a train at the back. 1t is trimmed
with applied tucks stitched on the
bias and headed with little silk cords.
Bias outlines predominant in the
trimming of the gown and are per-
petuated in the sleeves. which form
little puffs. opening over under
sleeves of lace to match the yoke.
With the gown there comes a cool
looking straw in the palest olive
green, the corrugated crown sinking
into mushroom crown. Its only trim
ming is large bird of delicate pink
and white, held in place with a loose
fold of chiffon wrapped around its

A Good Disinfectant.

One of the best disinfectants is
made by Stacking one part of quick
lime in four parts of water, This is
the white fluid used by sanitary en-
gineers.
1t is employed by mixing it with
the matter to be disinfested and Is
invaluable in typhoid fever. To dis

except metals, wash in a solution OF
one part of bichloride of mercury to

Of hydroehloric acid. Color with

RIBBON ON CoTToNs.

Many of the extrmely simple cot
ton stuffs are trimmed with narrow
bands of ribbon velvet, combined with
lace and embroidery; in fact, velvet
Is to hold its own among the season s
trimming, despite the prevalence of
the lace embroideries, gallons. etc.
Panne belts are so smartly effective
that their appropriations is everlast-
Ing, and many of the sheerest summer
linens have for their only touch of
color handsome girdle of panne vel
vet in one of the luscious fruit shades.

On each envelope write the name of
the pattern and the date on which 1t
was first used. 1t viii be useful to
add other items of information about
the pattern. If the sleeve is to be
cut shorter or the neck longer, a
note to that effect can be scribblcd
on the envelope. Write these notes
in pencil, so that they can be erased
when the envelope is wanted for an
other pattern. Such a device as this
for keeping patterns will save time
and temper in the sewing room.

SHOES.

Flat pearl buttons, larger than the

Cloth, dyed leather of various

vogue for fancy boot tops.

wise every nursing mother to start

fact that the weaving period Is sure

These Indians are scattered over

greatest number of acres reserved FOR

A miscarriage of Justice.

The result of the Thaw trial is
greatly to be regretted. He should
have been convicted of murder, if
not in the first then in the second
degree He is a conscious murderer
if there ever was one, and no excuses
offered in his extenuation are suhl-
cient to shield him in law or in jus
tice from the consequences Of his
crime.
The sober truth is that the pcrils
of popular government could have no
more sinister manifestation than the
widespread popular desire to. see
Thaw acquitted. On popular vote.
he would have been set free, /, &c J.
But such an action would have been
not only unjust on the merit: of the
case, but pernicious in the wa: OF
public policy. The reason why nine
persons out of ten would have voted
to acquit Thaw is because Of tho
character of Stanford White But
as Judge Fitzgerald SO wisely AMI
firmly impressed upon the jury, the
character of White had no bearing en-
the case. Neither did the remark
able personality of Evelyn Nesbi,
If Thaw knew what he was doing
and killed White with conscious pre-
meditation, he was guilty and that II.
