Home-Made Buttons

M ANY of the suits for the spring
w are finished in buttons covered
with the material. and there Is
no reason why these should not be
made at home, for an easier task
could not be found.
The moulds used are made Of wood
and can be bought for a few cents q
dozen, while the covering may be
scraps left over from the gown. Cir
cles are cut just an inch larger than
the mould, and these are gathered
round the edge. This cup-like affair
is slipped on the mould the thread is
drawn tight, finished off. and the but
ton is finished. When the plain ma
terial is not sufficient. fancy stitches
may be taken in the covering; the de-
sign may be outlined with gold thread
or beads sewn on. Anything. i'm fact,
may be done to enhance the beauty
of the button in the Wearer'S eyes.

nights and matinee, beginning Friday
evening.
1.-The Time, the Place and the Girl
is the most successful play that pro-
life trio, VIII w. Hough, Frank r.
Adams and Joseph E Howard, have
turned out. The scenes are laid at a
sanitarium in Virginia, to where John
ny Hicks, a happy-go-iucky gambler
and his pal, Tom Cunningham. flee to
escape arrest, as a result of a physical
encounter the previous night in Bos-
ton. Before the police catch up with
them the sanitarium is placed under
quarantine. Cunningham, the pal" Is
in reality a rich mans son, and the
first love complication begins when he
becomes infatuated with Margaret
Simpson, "the Girl" who is at the
sanitarium with her father a farmer,
and her brother and a party of board
ing school girls. So.
AS soon as the quarantine Is de-
clared, the servants of the hotel and
sanitarium desert and the guests are
forced to look after their own wants.
Cunningham. by his manner, is chosen
dictator of the place, and he assigns a
certain task to each of the guests.
Hicks, the young gambler, with prolific
and typical vocabulary, is made head

quarreled with Cunningham following

do the scrubbing. and when she re-
fuses her meals are summarily cut off.
She then leads a general strike of the
guests, who unanimously declare
against the dictator. Cunningham

breaker by jerking off his coat and de-
claring physical supremacy. Mean
while the main love story which has
been developing-that of Hicks and the
head nurse, Molly Kelly-is entirely out
of the ordinary.
Added to the complications in which
Hicks finds himself Is the enforced
treatment of the water cure, resulting
from a patient who has been sent to
the sanitarium. The latter has been
directed by his physician to deliver a
letter of instructions to the head nurse.
This letter he gives to Hicks. and using

Notes of Plays and Players.

The old joke concerning the lady who
wore a string of beads and pleasant
smile is too near the naked truth to be
accepted flnppantly in New York this
season. There are a dozen Salomes ca
vorting about the stages of the festive
town, and what they don't wear at
tracts much more attention than what
they do. Recently four Salome5 were
asked to describe their costumes, and
no one of them required more than a
single breath with which to do it.
