Dainty Knitting Bag

A SIMPLE, easily worked knitting
II bag can be made Of white lawn,
1 over a colored silk or satin lin
inches long and twenty-four inches
wide. This should be followed in two
lengthwise and two-inch hem turned
down on each side for frill. The lin
ing Is cut SO it comes just to the lower
edge of the frill. but sewed in with 1t
into a casing. In otherwise the frill Ia
Of the lawn only. The bag when fin
ished is fourteen inches long and ten
high. including the ruffie. Run ribbon
through the casing for draw-string.
The lawn before being made up is en-
broidered on the front side in a spray
of forget-me-nots, caught with bow
knots. Do the flowers and leaves in rib
bon embroidery using several tones Of
blue and two shades Of green. The
stems are worked in rope silk The
-bowknot was of pale pink ribbon, out
lined with gold thread. Use a pale
pink lining.
Such a spray could be more simply
worked bv doing the flowers in satin
stitch, the bow-knots and leaves in
shaded kensington. Easier yet, the
lawn could have a series of rings about
the size of a quarter of a dollar, ar
ranged in groups of two or three and
outlined in black and two tones of a
color to correspond with the lining.
Thus, with a pale yellow lining the
rings coulG be of black. orange and lem
on, with yellow ribbon used for the
casing.
The rings themselves, if preferred,
could be done in fine chain stitch or
in briar stitch instead of outlining.

Greek Cross CenterpieCe

A NOVEL table set of centerpiece
II and late dolies seen recently was
Ain the colored Wallachian embroid-
cry, so much in favor this season. Nat
ural-colored linen of loose weave was
used for he foundation, and the en-
broidery was done in three shades of
dull pink and two of rich, dark green.
The design was an even more conven-
tionalized of flower petals, rings and
scrolls than is usual in this type of en-
broidery, but the chief novelty lay in
the shape of the centerpiece. which
simulated the form of a Greek cross. or
more exactly looked like large, round
centerpiece, elongated on each side of
the central diameters.
This centerpiece was buttonholed with
a half-inch border of the darkest shade
of green, and was edged with cluny
lace about two inches wide.
The four doilieS fitted into the corners
of the centerpiece in such a way that
they could be used very effectively on a
round table.
The edges of the doiies were button
holed in the green, but were not lace
hordered.

Making Lace Buttons

THE women who prefer lace-making
to all other forms of fancy work
i should turn their attention to the
lace buttons which are seen ON so many
elaborate gowns just now, yet which are
SO costly to buy.
Almost any of the lace stitches can
be used for these buttons, though mo-
tiff in Venetian lace is the most fashion
able at present fine Irish covering
in an openwork effect is almost if not
quite as good style.
After the lace is made the button
moulds are covered with thin silk to
match the gown before the lace is put
on Often the buttons are edged with
the narrowest possible ruff1e made of
double bias strip of taffeta. Generally
these buttons repeat the design of lace
trimming used somewhere on the blouse
AS so few buttons are required for one
coStume-rarely more than six large
ones and four small ones-the amount
of work necessary to make the hand
soonest set of real lace buttons is COM
paratiVely slight.

fiounce is circular, and is to be held in
slightly around the crown. This latter
can be stamped on any sized piece Of
material, according to the size of the
frame used.
The work is absolutely simple, be-
ing nothing but satin stitch and button
holing, save in the center Of the large
flower in the crown, which is en-
broidered solidly around the double
lines and is seeded in the small open
place in the middle. The graceful wav-
ing edge is padded and then closely
buttOnholed. The dots are first filled
with vertical stitches and then covered
with horizontal ones. To work dot by
the way. is quite an art, and requires
care to make it perfectly round.
Some persons begin their dots in the
center and work to one edge. then turn
and work to the other edge. This in
sures the same number of stitches on
each half. If preferred, the dots can be
pierced and worked as eyelets, but are
more effective when done solidly.
The foliage and central flower in the
crown are padded with chain stitch and
then covered in satin stitch. The stems
can be outlined, corded or done in very
fine French stem stitch. The working
detail shows all three, so the effect can
be judged. The spray to the left has
the French stem stitch. the central one
Is corded, and the right-hand one is
done in outline.
Usually the embroidered lingerie hat
is taken to a milliner to be made up.
1t is not difficult, however, to do it
ones self. Wire frames Of the proper
shape can be bought for from % to
50 cents. These should then be COW

SCarfS and Covers

using, if possible, one of those with a
design consisting of flowers and rib
bon. Certain cretonnes are striped, with
lines of ribbon and flowers, and If the
material is cut lengthwise. taking one
or more of these stripes to make a bor
der, it is both effective and economical.
On each side of this border baby rib
bon may be ruffied, or it can be run on
fiat in one or two rows.
A pincushion to match can be made
by having the top of the muslin and
finishing 1t with scant ruffie of the
ribbon, with bows at each corner.

that shown in the pictured hat today,
is very effective under the embroid-
cred flounce: or the whole inside of the
brim can be covered with overlapping
ruffies of fine valenciennes lace or one
deep knife-pleated lace rufIle.
The embroidered design for the top
should be cut on a circular piece, which
may be gathered on the edge and tuck
ed around the crown, or a bias casing
can be sewed on it, so that 1t can be
put on with a drawstring and thus be
easily removed. The founce can like
wise be gathered or sewed in tightly
around the crown, or it, too. can be
manipulated by a drawstring.
The trimming should be kept very
simple Soft ribbon drawn around the
bow is really all that is necessary, but
a few rosebuds or delicate flowers can
be mixed with the loops, if wished.
If just the ribbon is used, it is a good
idea to arrange it so it can be hooked
around the crown. Thus one hat may
be given pleasing variety by fiat black
velvet ribbon garniture. by a white
many-looped fluffy bow of louisine, and
by other longer bows of pompadour
ribbon or plain pink. blue. yellow or
green satin ribbon.
Another pretty way to treat this hat
is to embroider the crown and founce
in lawn or batiste of a delicate color,
using either a white or self-colored mer-
cerized cotton, and to make it up over
a pleating Of deep cream German va
lencienneS lace
A very fine cotton should be used
for the embroidery, of which about nine
skeins will be required. If the fabric
is so sheer it seems to pull, haste it
smoothly on tissue paper, and do the
embroidery through both layers. The
paper can easily be torn away when
the work is finished.
Any one who wishes hat wider in
front than behind can easily manage it
by shortening the flounce at the back.
Women who do not care to embroider
a hat can easily utilize this design for
a centerpiece by stamping the crown
motif in the center OF the circular
fiounce, and emitting the dotted line
on the side. But half the founce could
be given on the page. The crown mo-
tiff should be drawn on larger circle
than that given for the inside or the
fiounce One fifteen inches in diameter
will be none too big to allow plenty OF
space to cover any sized frame.

THOUGH each season its death

4 hat is never really ousted from
popular favor 1t is too pretty, be-
coming and useful not to have many
devotees. especially among children and
young women. Each succeeding sum
mer, therefore, gives us new and at
tractive forms of this dainty headgear.
While the lingerie hat may be con-
cocted from many different materials,
such allover lace. embroidered
flouncing, heavy linen or pique and
sheerer fabrics, the northumberland
hat of linen or lawn is the chief favor
lite. Such hats have much to recon-
mend them. In the first place. they.
are quite inexpensive, compared to
other styles of hats of equal dreSSineSS
as the handwork upon them is usually
handsome enough in itself TO do away
with the necessity of costly trimmings.
This, OF course, presupposes that a
woman does her own embroidery. Then,
too. they can be so arranged that they
may be easily taken apart and launder-
cd, and thus can be kept perfectly
fresh throughout the season. Lastly,
nothing quite equals their dainty girl
ishness or quite takes their place for
wearing with cotton or linen gowns on
semi formal occasions

able business was transacted and It
was decided to advance the stock from
SO per share to $3.50 per share.
1--WE have been busy the past season
installing machinery" said Superin-
tendent Griswold this morning. "We
have put in a 20 horsepower boiler, a
hosting engine capable of sinking 900
feet, a new and up to date sawmill with
a capacity of 1900 feet per day, a 30
horsepower engine for the saw mill,

house. cottages, sawmill, etc. The ma
chinery is all up to date with the latest
modern appliances and the company
is in a position to go ahead with de-
velopment work in an economical. in
telligent and systematic manner.
'It is the purpose of. the company to
thoroughly develop the property, sink a
5OO-foot shaft and then determine
what kind and size of reduction works
TO erect Our shaft is now $50 feet in
depth with a ledge averaging six feet
in width. Tests from the surface to the
bottom run from 81 to $1,000 per ton
with about equal values of gold ard
silver The mines are in a well tim
bered country with plenty of water
for all purposes. We are within four
miles of the Canadian Pacific railroad
with a good government road leading
to our property. The mine is in the
same district as the famous Leroy and
War Eagle mines and all the other
prominent mines of the Rossland couL-

After a lengthy interview with Deputy
Prosecuting Attorney John Mcdonald
this morning, Mr. Scott came to the
conclusion. that, for the safety of his
faithful cook, in fact for others con-

Miss Allen in custody. Before leaving

he stated his intention to have her ar

IS
HARD PROBLEM
Citizens Claim Assessment
Is Too High
WILL TALK TO COUNCIL
NEXT MEETING WILL BE SCENE
OF MUCH DISCUSSION ABOUT
THE PROPOSED I'M
PRovEMENT.

Following the acceptance of the as
sessment roll regulating the tax against
property owners residing along Mill
creek for the construction of a bulk
head Oh either side of the creek, the
city council has evidently jumped from
the frying pan into the fire. While the
city council is undoubtedly accepting
the means to furnish the desired bulk
head at the least possible expense, still
the many unsatisfactory statements
fired at City Clerk Hart is grave evil
dence that many of the property own
ers named in the. assessment roll are
unwilling to accept the tax levied
against them believing that the benefit
derived therefrom will not equal the
enormous tax.
The matter of amusement will un-
doubtedly be brought to the attention
of the council again at their next reg
ular meeting, December 2 and at this
time it is probable that the difficulty
will be settled.
1t seems to be the desire of many of
the tax payers along the creek, to have
created a local Improvement bond to
provide for the payment of the bulk
head. This plan has been successful
in the paving districts. and according
to the. statements of many of the peo-
pie. would work with good satisfaction
in defraying the expenses of the pro-
posed bulkhead.
