A Prospect Of Pockets.

It is said that pockets are to return
with the fashions of the spring. but in
spite of the rumor no one has vsn-
tured to foretell where these COM
forts to femininity will be placed in
the costume. Is It that they will bs
fastened. as of old, to the undershirt.
or will they take their old position at
the placket, or. perhaps. will they be
cunningly placed in the belt of one OF
the new semi-princess gowns?
Perhaps they will find II nesting z

SHOES FOR THE HOT WEATHER..
New Buttoned Oxford Will Be Among
the Most Pcr-lar.

With lingerie dresses for summer a
new buttoned oxford will be worn.
1t is not on the Du Barry order, but
rather on the style of the strapped
slipper, for the boot is slit between the
buttons so that the stocking may show
through. With these, Dame Fashion
says, cole I'd stockings must be worn
to match the gown or belt.
Many street slippers will be fitted
with high French heels. but because
there are some sensible women who
will not consent to go any distance in
such monstrosities, summer shoes may
be obt2ined with Cuban or military
heels. 1t is predicted that opera slip
pers will be worn on all oc casions, and
these will be made in black, white and
pink, or any other shade that might
b. any chance be required.

Hemstitch on Machine.

Cut strips of newspaper one inch
wide and full length of the paper; use
eight thicknesses. Tear off your hem,
put the strips of paper with edges
even between the edge of hem and
where you have torn it from, then
sew down through paper and cloth
Just the width of the seam from the
edge. Next tear out the paper and
sew down each edge. sewing up your
hem at same time. This makes a
pretty way of putting embroidery in
shirt waists. 1t also can be used for
hemming sheets or pillowcases.

New Brooch Pendants.

There are many new pendants
which may be used as brooches or
even hairpins. They are made with
"A golden loop at the top that fits over
tn chain. but the brooch pin and
hairpin both screw into a tiny hole in
the back of the middle of the design.
Some canoes. being such heavy Or
naments, are arranged so that for
pendants they are very large, but
when used as brooches the cameo may
be taken out of the frame and fixed
so that it may be pinned on to the
dress. OF course. the cameo would
not be used as a decoration for the
couture. for such pins are usually of
diamonds or some other glittering
stone.

IN EVENING WEAR
TEA GOWNS FORMED OF RICH
MATERIALS.
Fashion Now DEGREES That They Shall
Fit the Lines of the Figure-FulI
Dress Costumes Without
Sleeves

Tea gowns and evening frocks are
coming to their own now. It's very
hard at times to distinguish between
the two, for the evening gown has
grown nearer and nearer to the soft
flowing lines of the semi-negligee
while the tea gown has broken it's
sweeping draperies and fitted itself to
the lines of the figure. The difference,
however, is most likely to be found
in material, for the tea gown has taken
TO itself the rich velvets, cashmeres
and soft veilings, while evening gowns
remain as airy as possible. Lines tend
more to the flowing style, with sur
plice front and angel sleeves. Very
young girls. however, are wearing the
dearest little puffs that barely cover
the top of the arm, while many of the
newest full dress costumes are quite
guiltless of sleeves. For these the
flower trimmings are popular. A trife
less pronounced is the angel sleeve,
or win sleeve, as the French who orig
mated it name it.

This sleeve falls quite away from

of tulle. net or some other Of the va
voted to undersleeves. This is a
great advantage for the girl who re-
models her party frocks occasionally,
to be able to pot in sleeves of diff
ferent material from the dress itself.
The surplice cut bodice-another boon
to the home dressmaker, by the way
usually opens over tiny low'cut
vest of the same material as the
sleeves. Soft wing shaped bretelles
hanging in points at the front and
back are usually tipped with tassels
or tiny jewels of some sort Skirts are
straight and very full, though there
are rumors from Paris that the panel
front, often of a different material
from the gown itself, is coming into
vogue, while rufiles, the dear. narrow

on their party frocks years ago, are on

HOW TO TEST LlNsEEp OIL

There is nothing that VIII make
paint go wrong on the house more
quickly than poor oil. 1t is as bad in
its way as adulterations in the white
lead. Petroleum oil cheapeners may
be detected by placing drop of the oil
on black painted surface. II one sees
the characteristic iridescence or play
of colors which kerosene exhibits, it
Is evidence of adulteration. Corn and
fish oil can be detected by the smell.
Adulteration in white lead can best
be discovered by the use of a blow
pipe, which National Lead Company
will send with instructions free to
anyone interested in paint Address.

Pant. for the Orphans.

some families OF sending all the

How Cured sweeny and Fi.tuIa.

II want to tell you how l saved one
of our horses that had fistula. We
had the horse doctor out and he said
it was so bad that he did not think he
could cure it, and did not come again.
Then we tried Sloan's Liniment and
it cured it up nicely.
"One day last spring was plowing
for a neighbor who had a horse with
sweeny. and l told him about Sloan's
Liniment and he had me get bottle
for him, and it cured his horse all
right, and he goes off now like a colt.
I'VE had horse that had sweeny
awfully bad and we thought it was
never going to be any good, but we
used Sloan's Liniment and it cured it
up nicely. l told another neighbor
about it and he said it was the best
Liniment he ever used.
