Burn and Bury the Dead.

Melilla, July 3C.-The Moors have
withdrawn from the outskirts of the
city 1t is believed they are concen-
trating for new efforts. They burned
hundreds of their dead whom they
were unable to carry off. After the
tribesmen had retired, the sad work
of burying the Spanish dead, which
already were rOtting in the sun, was
hurredly accomplished in a ravine,
where two columns of Spanish troops
were ambushed while trying to rescue
convoy. The ground was covered
with heaps of corpses. many of whom
were mutilated after death.

Haunted by Two Fears.


Madrid, July 30.-Spain is rent by
two fears-the fate of the army in
Morocco and the situation in the Med
iterranean provinces III Catalonia. At
the outskirts of Melilla the Spanish
arms have suffered a serious check
been slain or wounded and the Moor
ish hOrdes are fighting at the very
walls of the city itself.
News from Barcelona. the center OF
the revolutionary outbreaks, is ex
ceelingly meager and unsatisfactory
One report is that the revolutionists
are using bombs and that 100 persons
weIa killed and 200 wounded during
the earlier stages of the conflicts.
Some Success Claimed.
1t was officially announced last night
that the cavalry engaged at Barcelona
succeeded yesterday in driving into
of reyOlutionists, against whom the ar
tillery opened fire, causing great
losses. The survivors surrendered.
Tho official statement further says
that E now remains only to master
small groups of revolutionists in The

The Homemade
Undervest

ITALIAN silk is the usual material
from which the home-constructed
= undervest Is made. There are many
persons who have not heard Of this nice
little garment. but as many more who
wear it persistentiy. Italian silk is
jersey. or elastic, weave, and because OF
It's raveling propensity it is usually fin-
ished round the low neck and armholes
with a China silk binding broad enough
to be casing for the wash-ribbon
drawstringA China silk, nainsook. ba-
tiste and sheer linen are also used for
this garment, which is cut like shorter
and more scant chemise.
The garment is much prettier than the
undervest Of gauze. and is particularly
desirable for the slender woman. She
may cut the back like the scant pat
tern, but should fold into the material
ting out the front. Perhaps I should
say fronts" because this article is
largely worn by the stout woman. who.
to make 1t easier to put on. cuts the
front in two and fastens it together
with buttons and buttonholes. If the
buttons are an annoyance under the
corset steel, it is often tied together
with narrow silk ribbons.
The French make these little vests Tor
just 90 cents when the materials are
supplied, doing the work entirely by
hand and telling the several seams with
an indescribably fine stitch and feather
stitching the casing to the garment In
wear and an envy to the American' VINO
rarely finds the plain sewer Of this type,
and never at such allurinS prices.

Baby's Hood

~IIE very word "hood" has a too
warm sound for the time of the
year: but this isn't a full-sized
grown-up hood; it's only a baby one.
Now. Baby dear is forever in need OF
a hood, and the warmth of summer may
even make 1t more necessary at times.
There is a sensible theory being car
ried into effect right now in the pro-
tecting OF the back of baby's neck by
the joining Of cap and wrap. This Is a
most necessary precaution. for the little
fat neck is exactly the place that gets
the warmest and, therefore, is most
sensitive to cold.
The knitted or crocheted sacuuc is
now made with an attached hood, The
long knitted cape. which is SO delight
fully easy to throw on, is also provided
with a head covering, and this same
hooded cape, which is sloped into a
point along its lower edge. like Red
Ridinghood's cloak. is repeated in white
shantung-the merest filmy protection
for the warmest days. Perhaps the
most useful Of all is the coyer-aIl coat
10 protect the baby from the violent and
prolonged breeze Of a long drive or ride
in an open trolley.
This wrap is always loose and long. tn
cover knees and ankles. In fact. IT is
made just like the baby's fathers bath
robe, only that there is fastened to its
neck the big pointed hood that NAV
either fall back over the shoulders or ba
pulled up to cover baby in the emer-
gency. Flannel or broadcloth NAV ba
the chosen material or, if the babv
wears soft white cape beneath it. rosa
pink or dull blue serge Of the w,de-
walled quality will make an ideal gar
ment for warmth and durability.

you should never clean old lace,
4 with gasoline. and for a very
good reason. Read On and see
whether you VIII not always remem-
Der this. because it is SO much more
commonsensiblc than most recipes.
The gasoline, which is the far-famed
and proverbial grease remover. will
lake the natural oil out Of the lace
threads. which, 1t must be remem-
beced. are a vegetable product, rem
dering them crisp, stiff and liable to
snap.
Lace should first be soaked in cold
water, then shaken in a bottle in
lukewarm water to which has been
added the merest PINCH Of borax.
This should be thoroughly rinsed out,
TO prevent its rotting the delicate
fabric. When lace is very handsome
it should first be basted TO old linen
to keep it from stretching. and 1t
should be speedily taken out of the
hottest rays of the sun when thor
oughly dry. There is no necessity for
scorching it indefinitely.

who will not carry those edged with
conspicuous bands.
The very best taste is shown in
the rolled edge held down by q
crossed oyercasting done with fast
black cotton. The four sharp corners OF
the fine piece of linen are curved and
the edge rolled. The first row OF
overcasting Is then sewn round the
whole, the kcrchief is turned and
second row sewn round II so that
the stitch is crossed.
Whenever these handkerchiefs have
been given as a gift they have met
with unusual appreciation. They are

How to Apply
the Design

THEREfar are two ways to apply
this design to the material
upon which you wish to work it.
If your material is sheer-such
as handkerchief linen, lawn, batiste
and the like-the simplest method
is to lay the material over the de-
sign and, with well-pointed pencil,
draw over each line.
If your material is heavy, secure
a piece of transfer or impression
paper. Lay it, face down, upon this;
then draw over each line of the
paper design with hard pencil or
the point of steel knitting needle.
Upon lifting the pattern and trans
fer paper you will tnd a neat and
accurate impression of the design
upon your material.
There are two points to observe
in this simple process, if you would
execute it satisfactorily. One is,
see that your material. is level-cut
and folded by thread-and that
your design is placed upon it evenly
at every point.
The second is, when placed accu-
rately, secure the design to the ma
terial with thumb tacks or pins SO
that they cannot slip during the
operation.
Transfer paper comes in white,
black, blue, red and yellow. l ad-
wise the use of the lighter colors
when possible, as the black and blue
are so liable to crock.
Do not rest your hand or fingers
upon any part of the design you are
transferring, else the imprint of
hand or fingers will be as distinct
upon the material as the drawn
lines of the design.

Cuban Drawn
work

~ n
TUST as we at home buy the en-
broidered pieces OF the unmade
blouse in. perhaps. Mexican
drawnwork or Madeira embroidery
which has been sent here for sale.
the American traveller in Cuba buys
the most interesting pieces Of hand
work, a great deal Of it in good eye
let designs. for all sorts OF clothes,
surface" garments and underwear.
Boleros and princess gowns in the
rough. with raw edge in all states
OF fray and ravel. are among tho
stock to choose from. Some Of them
are soiled, others have been laundered
and are In quite fair and presentable
shape. Many of them are OF suffi-
GENTLY recent and stylish cut to indi-
cate that England or America has
Influenced the little country's fash
ions.
For the underwear and, indeed. some
OF the outer garments, the buyer is
supposed to match the linen (for they
all are made Of linen), the embroid-
cred pieces alone being supplied.
Fortunately, therefore, that material
may always be matched. You will
be offered q baby's yoke and nothing
more; a pair Of cuffs. the sort to wear
over a dark dress, in gauntlet fash
ion. Or some peasant of the country
will bring you stock of chemise or
nightdress yokes-perhaps her sole
accomplishment; but they are SO
beautifully made you long to build a
dress around them. to incorporate
them, as it were. In a gown that may
be seen. There is one very nice bit
Of work they do. and this is for the
older lady-a chemisette for the sur
plice gown. This little accessory is
most appropriate for the turned-in
neck which we would do well to en-
courage on our mothers and grand
mothers, who. after all. have very
few fashions designed for them alone.
like the idea of all the odd pieces
OF embroidery for pickup work. and
realize that by using just one or
two staple numbers" Of linen, in
heavy or sheer quality, many differ
eut articles could be begun on single
pieces. for instance, cut after ones
own fitted pattern and matched at
ones leisure or in the long winter
days when we sew up things we nave
embroidered. But that Is another
chapter Of a lengthy sewing story.

equally suited for the baby OF l year
OF the child Of 4. There Is very little
variation in these small yokes. and
the Same design will be found appli-
cable to different sizes. The skirt OF

may be finished with the sleeve scallop
If you prefer it to that intended for the
skirt. II the cap seems a little large,
try to realize that chlds head IS
always larger In actual measurement
than you think it. and that by the
time 1t is finished you will be delighted
with yourself for not putting the nice
work upon smaller size. The rever
is to be turned back from the face In
that most becoming Of cap shapes. and
the round back piece Is the crown OF
the prettiest cap We know or.
