LITTLE ERRORS THAT WORRY.
How Some Of Them May Be Avoided
by the Home Dressmaker.

1t is usually the little errors In
dressmaking that are the most irri-
tating and annoying to the woman
who does her own dressmaking. The
unlined waist is one of the hardest
garments TO fit correctly. Wlen
wrinkles come at the base OF the arm
hole. the trouble usually is that the
armhole has been made too small.
II II is. do not cut 1t out. but simply
snip 1t with the point OF the scissors
to see II the wrinkles are removed.
II the wrinkles are not removed. then
trim the armhole.
If the waist wrinkles ut the base of
the collar line In the back, see II your
belt is in the proper place exactly ut
the waist line and that the line from
the center back OF the belt is plumb.
II you are sure that the belt is cor
recily placed. then snip the collar
with the point OF the scissors at each
side of the center back of the collar
and wrinkles in all probability will
be removed.

STRIPES AND POLKA DOTS.
Methods Of Trimming That viii Make
Any Simple Frock Ornamental.

One OF the pretty ways of making
a simple frock ornamental is trim
ming 1t with an opposite design in the
game coloring.
To be explicit. polka dots are in
fashion and frocks In this design are
trimmed with wide bias bands OF plaid
u striped material In the same color.
-, striped frock is trimmed with a
wide straight band of polka dot mate
rial.
A plain surface is trimmed with
both the polka dot and the striped
fabric. and when the combination is
well done II docs not really look like
u patchwork guilt.
1t can even be carried out In yokes
and stocks, as nets In fashionable col
ors now come with tiny polka dot Of
white. II is usually In a small open
circle Instead OF a real polka dot. but
1t gives the same effect.
These nets are put in tiny ;ucks and
used instead OF lace, embroidery or
muslin.

TWO SIGNIFICANT EVENTS.
French Conservatives Move to Re.
sist Progress Of Socialism.

PARIS. January 1s.-Two significant
vents marking the growing determination
of the conservative class to resist the en-
croachments of the revolutionary social
ism were observed here today. The first
is the initial meeting of the Commercial
parliament" a body designed to secure
better representation of commercial and
Industrial interests before the legislature
and generally to combine the business
men of France into a sort Of non-political
parliament in the defense Of their COM
non interests.
The chief aim Of this parliament IS to
meet the socialists on their own ground
by promoting joint action between mas
ters and men, thus preventing the pres
sure for excessive state interference.
The second event Is the appearance in
Paris today of a weekly paper called
Opinion. on the model Of the London
Spectator. The purpose Of this publica-
ton Is to marshal conservative republican
opinion of all shades against the demands
of collectivism, such as premature aspira-
tions for disarmament, etc.
To the socialistic warfare Of tho classes
1t will oppose cooperation between the
classes. The prime movers In this move
ment are Paul Doumer, former president
of the chamber Of deputies; ex-Pren1ter
Ribot and Alexandra Millerand, former
minister of commerce.

have an insurance feature was decided
here today. The Royal Arcanum local
lodge sued many former members for
money which officials of the lodge claimed
they had paid for these members. In
each instance the member. It is alleged.
was several months in arrears with dues.
and would not have been protected In his
insurance had payment not been made by
the lodge. Justice Oldham dismissed the
suit, ruling that the officials paid the
dues without authority from the members
sued The amounts involved were small
and the justice ruled that no appeal could
be taken to higher court.
Representatives Of practically every Sc
cret order with an insurance feature here
watched the proceedings and will report
the findings of the Justice to their re-
spective supreme lodges.
