In making. A little work when chat
ting on the porch these lovely days
may be at hand and much accom-
plished in odd moments. The popular
Irish crochet in lace insertion or edge
is always acceptable, or the pretty.
dainty, little jabots are still much In
favor.

hemstitching with the space between
each row filed with the pretty feath-

spray of French embroidery In two
corners and the initial just far enough
up to lie in sight on the table when
the cloth is spread.
Very beautiful effects are made with
the lace braid that has a thread which
draws up, doing away with the te-
dious overhanding. A very handsome
dolly may be easily made of this kind
in two afternoons. the knotted lace

The little individual towels embroid-

ono of the frequent causes OF COM

sofa North Dakota and South Dakota,
excluding the Black Hills district, has
been making an investigation into some
OF these complaints, and this is The con

carried him:

II has long been the opinion OF this
