The Viluca cut the waters of Newport

for New York.
Now is your time" said Mrs. Drel-

OLD FASHION BACK
NEEDlEWORk OF LONG AGO
AGAIN IN VOGUE.
Designs and CoIors the same-cross
Stitch Growing in PopuIarity-coI-
orea Embroidery on White Liner
Much Used

Old-fashioned needlework has taken
complete possession of the most mod
ern of up-to-date work baskets. and
every week or two one sees some one
OF the kinds of handwork that were in
fashion many years ago being revived.
Cross stitch is growing in popularity.
and very beautiful floral pieces are
now being made for cushions, table
covers, etc. The designs are quite
those that were used when the work
was popular many years ago, and the
colors used are the dull. deep pinks,
dark garnets and shaded green's which
go so well with the stiff bouquets and
Sarlands of the patterns. One wonders
that some one does not invent an en-
tirely new kind of designing for this
work, not because the old patterns are
not satisfactory, but because nowadays
we are always crying for new things.
AS yet, however, the cross stitch work
ers seem to be perfectly satisfied with
the old pattern. Their aim is not to
make a departure into new designs,
but to find some particularly quaint
old ones to copy-something which
none of their acquaintances has come
across
Colored embroidery on white linen
is much used for pin cushions. The
designs that are in fashion at the mo-
ment are scattered and rather slight
and dainty. The most attractive work,
and also the most difficult, Is that
which includes open-work embroidery
in white thread and the colored en-
broidery in the same design. For in
stance, pin cushion was noticed dec
GRATED with corner designs, including
scattered blossoms and butterflies.
The butterflies were of open-work en-
broidery done in white, supplemented
around the wings with embroidery in
vari-colored linen thread. The tiny
blossoms were In different colored
linen threads.
The mingling OF applique work with
fancy stitching is seen on the new
fancy work which is to be used on use
full articles for bedrooms and dining.
rooms. For instance, laundry bag
, made OF cotton etamine and lined with
yellow sateen had decoration around
the bottom of chintz applique in yell
low and green. The design was of tall
yellow peoples with green leaves, and
the applique was so put on that the
/ flowers stood up all around the bottom
of the bag. The foliage. of course, was
| around the bottom edge of the bag,
while the flowers came half way to the
top.
Knitting. Afghan shawls, etc, Of
! zephyr and Germantown wool on two
needles is also highly popular indus
try among the fair sex.

Caring for Oilcloth.

The careful housewife avoids the
use OF either soap or ammonia in the
water with which her oilcloth Is
cleaned. She knows that their use will
injure the material and render the col
ors dull and lifeless. She also avoids
a brush unless she owns very soft
one. and relies upon clear, clean water
and soft flannel cloths for her clean.
ing work
When the oilcloth has been washed
clean, she rubs it dry with a fresh dry
flannel cloth and then polishes the en-.
tire surface with a rag upon which
there is a very little linseed oil, or
some SKINNED milk. The milk does
very satisfactory work. but should be
avoided in summer time, as it will
bring flies.
Some housekeepers think that oil.
cloth keeps its freshness and gives far
better service If treated to a coat Of
varnish when it is first put down.

Rainy-Day Closet,

Rainy days often mean trouble in
the household where there are plenty
of children, and some one has sug-
gested that the mother of such a
brood would do well to provide herself
with a rainyday closet
To it will find their way special
playthings reserved for state occas-
ions; pictures. scrapbooks paste pots
scissors, old magazines and paint
boxes. Anything, in fact, that can
provide indoor amusement When
the rainy day comes round the closet
may be opened and a distribution OF
its blessings made.
Children delight IN novelty. and
the very fact that there is a special
treat reserved for the days when the
sun doesn't shine will go a long way
toward alleviating any disappointment
over the putting off Of out-ofdoor
games and pleasures.

THE CALL OF THE CITY.

Faint and far. like thing OF dreams.
With palace and mart and spire.
With the tread OF million hurrying feet,
With hope and regret and desire
The city lies and II calls with voice
That touches mems souls with fire.
Tho fields stretch far to the rim Of the day.
And afar to the rising sun.
The valleys between bear lilies white.
AS the snood Of a clustered nun:
The winds of heaven, untrammeled and
sweet,
Fan meadow and fen and fall
But ever and ever the wind fares forth
With Its burden. the city's call
The maid who dreams by the side of the
brook
That flows from the niche in the hill,
Heeds not that tho bird on the blossoming
spray
Sits mute TO hear her trill
The tender Tilt OF an old love song
For she catches the throng's acclaim
In the voice Of the brook and the whisper
They bring her the message of fame
The youth with his hand on the stubborn
pillow,
As furrow on furrow he turns
Bares his head to the tempter breeze
And wondrous fire there burns
In the depths of his steadfast. grave young
eyes
As he stands there strong and tall
For over the hush of the fallow field
Comes stealing the city's call.
The student bending to parchment and
page.
While the midnight on burns low,
% Delves on and on. for the way rs long
That the searcher for truth must go
But glow oerspreads his strange wan

As he let's the last page fall
For Into the quiet. Swallowed room
Comes creeping the city's call
Faint and far. like a thing Of dreams.
With palace and mart and spire
With the tread OF a million hurrying feet
With hope and regret and desire
TIE city lies and II calls with a voice
That touches mems souls with fire.
