TNO VARY the monotony or to give a
more fancy appearance to the bed
l. room. the coverlet for the metal
bed is now frequently scalloped before
its valance is attached.
To do this II is not necessary to have
a pattern. but to cut the top of the COW
eriet so that at the head Of the bed
there il allowance for the hem, while at
the end and sides there will be a fall of
ten inches. This fail or extra material
is then cut into long. shallow scallops.
nine inches deep in their centers Each
side of the coverlet will accommodate
four scallops, while three may be made
across the foot.
A regulation ruffie is then gathered
and basted along this scalloped edge:
but In cutting this valance 1t should
measure once and a half the length OF
the actual scalloped edge.
1t may either fall unevenly at the bot
tom or be cut such a length that 1t may
be sloped evenly near the floor. On the
whole. the scalioped edge is less stiff
and more fluffy.
A coverlet of this type should be made
of Powered chintZ or Of dotted swiss or
plain white null. and either of the white
coverlets may be used over a colored
spread.

How to Apply
Design

~ wv ways W apply
this design to the material
upon which you wish to work it.
1t your material is sheer-such
as handkerchief linen, lawn, batiste
and the ike-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 find 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 a 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 thumbtacks or pins so
that they cannot slip during the
operation.
Transfer paper comes in white,
black, blue, read and yellow. 1 adj
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.

NATIONAL GUARD
TO Be IMPROVED
Companies Not Up to the Army
Standard Will Be
Dropped.

Washington, Oct. 17.-Jan. p next will
be a critical date in the history Of the
National Guard, it was announced to-
day, for thereafter no portion of the
money appropriated by congress for the
support Of the militia can be paid to any
organization that fails to conform to the
standards of the regular army.
Next year, for the first time IN its his
tory, the militia, or so much of it as re-
mains under the caption, THE National
Guard" will be found armed with the
latest pattern of military rifles; clothed
from head to foot in regular army gear;
supplied with all regular equipment, and
with ranks filled to the requirements Of
the law.
The improvement has been marked in
the south, but the west also is doing
well. though there are some spots re
garded as weak, notably in Nevada
where II is said there is not a single
company of the National Guard able to
establish a claim to dollar of the large
annual appropriations made by congress
for the support Of the militia.
AS the National Guard Of Utah is well
equipped and measures up we'll with the
standards of the regular army, and is
being bettered, weekly, 1t is believed that
the action will not affect the state mi
lftia.
