GIRLS MARK THEIR LINGERIE.

GIRLS MARK THEIR LINGERIE.
In this day of ready1mades, the
only thing that makes ones clothes
seem at all personal is to have some
individual way OF marking them. Even
girls who make many of their own
things enjoy putting on the little
touch which makes them peculiarly
their own. The easiest way and the
latest is to have the name in full,
first marked in the owners handwrit-
ing. Then it is worked with plain
outline stitch, or the work can be
done with the sewing machine, by
going over it twice. Handkerchiefs
are especially dainty done this way,
and much easier to identify than
when marked simply with the initials
or indelible ink. which becomes dim.
The machine stitching can also be
used on small initials for underwear,
and If set of lingerie is being trim
med in colors the machine may be
threaded with color.
Flower marking is dainty fad with
several prospective brides. Every
thing that they make has daisy, a
buttercup, or, latest of all, rose on
1t. If the girl doesn't embroider, she
buys Hamburg flowers and button
holes them on. Another idea is to
have whole set of rose lingerie,
another of butterflies, and so on. IN
this case very often the cloth Is mark
ed with the owners name in indeli-
BILE ink in some out-of-the-way cor
ner, where only the laundress will
see it. Another idea is the color
marking. A whole trousseau seen late
ly was in white, except for the tiny
blue bell which appeared on each
piece of the lingerie.
If the lingerie is marked with a
monogram it is correct to have the
same design stamped in several sizes.
Any girl who is at all clever with
pencil can draw the different sizes
for herself after she has the first
design done. The same is true OF
initials. Both these and the mono
gram are now done in script rather
than old English style.
Perhaps the simplest of all mark
Ing is with the tiny medallion initials,
which come in several sizes for a
few cents apiece. They are sewed
into place and one initial outlasts
several garments.-Pittsburg Press.

NO HONOR FOR DOMESTIC WORK,


There are two kinds of work in the
world, both equally necessary; the
one kind is pleasant, the other un.
pleasant, and the great permanent
struggle of humanity is to get the
pleasant work for themselves individu
ally, and to compel others to relieve
them of the horrid necessity of per-
forming the second kind. Now domes-
tic labor Is not pleasant, first because
II leaves no record, second because
the work brings no honor to the per-
former other than the very doubtful
honor which attends the destruction
of the results.
II domestic work had been pleas
ant, man would have reserved it for
himself, having the strength and the
opportunity to make his own condi-
lions, but primitive man preferred the
pleasures of the chase, and to culti.

When we can impress on others not
only that the unpleasant things are
their portion but that they like the
allotment, We have added new ele.

we have convinced people that they
are inferior they think it a privilege
to be permitted to look after obscure
and disregarded things. Woman be.

THE primary election law is a great
big expensive farce and an intolerable
nuisance. 1t practically robs poor men
of the right to hold office. No man with
out a barrel full to the brim can hope to
make a successful run for any office
against any fellow with such barrel
Oh, what miserably cheap bit of re-
form this primary election law is! How
the addleheaded and benighted 'holier
than thou" aggregation has been duped
and stung! The contest over the law
split the democratic party, thousands of
democrats going daffy over it, leaving
their party and running pellmell into
the republican camp as il 1t were the
only place of safety and the only polit-
ical institution that stood for the rights
and principles of democracy These
same democrats are now going around
with their heads hanging like dog
caught stealing sheep They are now
willing to admit that they committed a
great mistake when they allowed the re-
publican party to dictate how all other
parties should nominate candidates for
Office. They now see that the primary
election law was calculated to kill the
minority parties. Madisonian.

THOSE republicans who are making
war on Speaker Cannon because such
papers as the Milwaukee Journal and a
few misguided men and lot of cheap
demogogues have been ''lambasting" the
old Speaker, are very short sighted.
Speaker Cannon is not perfect, but as
Speaker, 10 order to see business trans
acted has to do as Speaker Reed did
force action by main strength. The out
cry against him is without good cause
and most unjust Whitewater Register.
