Darn with Machine.

Let the sewing machine darn that
hole in the bedspread. 1t will darn 1t
ever so much better than your hands
can Cut a piece of cotton cloth half
an inch larger all around than the
hole, turn the edges In and stitch
down on the machine. Basic the
patch to the inside of the worn por-
ton. Now lengthen the stitch as you
would for very heavy material and
stitch vertically over the hole, keep
ing the rows of stitching as near to-
gether as possible. Do not lift the
needle during the process, but lift the
foot Of the machine and swing the
article around the end of each row Of
stitching.
When the hole has been quite COW
cred with the vertical rows of stitch
ing stitch acros horizontally, as in
regular darning, until the hole is COM
pletely filled up. The finest table linen
can also be repaired in this way,
only the patch must be of linen in
stead of cotton cloth. A darn made
this way will far outlast the article.

IDEAL WALL couerinn-

From a sanitary and even from an
artistic standpoint nothing makes a
better wall covering than a water col
Or tint.
This must be the right kind, though,
that will not fade or streak or rub off.
If you insist on having the best, then
will you know the comfort of being
able to wipe down your walls once or
twice a week with a dry soft cloth put
rel a broom or long handled brush.
Some of these wall tints are anti
septic and germicides, and can be
painted over when it is desired to
change the decoration of the room
without washing off the under tint.

THRILLING ADVENTURE
Of THREE BALLOONISTS
Valve Cord Fails to Work and Occupants Of Vile de ieppe
Badly Injured Have Narrow Escape

Ballast was thrown out and the big
bag shot up to 5000 feet. It was
young Gregory's first trip and he was
very scared at the high altitude.
When the balloon was above Mi
agara Falls it was practically without
ballast and was dipping dangerously
close to the ground. A storm was
blowing UP and Captain Mueller de-
cided to make landing. He tried
to release the gas with the trip cord,
but it failed to work properly with
the result that the balloon dragged
along forh1 900 feet.
An anchor which was thrown out
caught in clump of trees and snap
ped from the balloon, which rose and
fell alternately jolting the occupants
of the car. The basket dragged over
the tracks, struck barn, and finally
dangled over the cliff two hundred
feet above the rapids.
Two of Gerald Gregory's teeth were
knocked out and his head was cut
Harry Gregory was unconscious when
taken from the basket. His ankle
was sprained and body bruised. :.
