WHEN SHORTENING A SKIRT.

To shorten skirt do so from the

length. When a skirt is to be length
ened. do not attempt to piece It At the
top, One way to lengthen the skirt is
70 turn It on evenly from the floor.
measure the difference between the
length desired and that which the
skirt has after II is trimmed evenly.
Cut piece OF material twice the num-
Der Of inches in width required to
make the desired length. and as many
inches around as the skirt measures.
Allow one-half inch on all seams. Join
this extra piece to the skirt proper,
with the seam on the right side. Press
It nat with the edge down. Turn the
added piece up on the right side.
Measure from the waist line down the
length OF the skirt, and turn the bal
ance Of the piece UP on the right side.
Fold In half an inch at the edge. and
baste the edge over the joining. Stitch
double row of stitching. sewing on
the applied hem, one at the extreme
edge and the other about one-quarter
OF an inch from 1t. Press this fat.
and you have a trimming as well as
an added length.

Chamois Gloves.

Chamois gloves are again gaining
popularity. They look well in warm
weather and are not half as extrav.
agant as kid ones. They come In
white and several shades of yellow.
The wise girl keeps two pairs of
these going at once. and each day
washes one pair that they may be dry
to wear the following day. To wash
them cold water must be used and
white soap. Warm or hot water shirv-
els and hardens them.
Put the gloves on and give them a
thorough washing as you would your
hands. Do not put them near the heat
while drying

PLAITINGs RETURN TO FAVOR.
Advent Of Fussy Dresses Of = Former
Period Are Responsible for
Revival.

The tiny knife plaitings only an
inch in width are again coming to
the from, with the revival OF the fussy
dresses OF the 1890 period. They be-
long TO the era OF the little roses. mar
row fringes and puffs. The selvedge
OF chiffon cloth cut of and sent to the
plaiter's or else done with patience at
home will save the whole hemming
process. The French also double chif.
fon before II is plated. to avoid hem.
ming. The selvedge OF some silks may
be used in the same way. and when
the band OF a different color along the
edge happens to be in harmony or In
good contrast 1t has even been chosen
as n decoration for the dress. and al
lowed to go into the frill. Tiny knife
plaitings are made OF lace insertions
because the straight edge forms a
more even line than the scallop OF
lace. When insertions are used for
frills. whether gathered or plated,
they are felled to the gown so that the
pattern may not be wasted in seam.
Taffeta ribbon. too. is frequently con.
verted into knife plaitings.

Colorinq Canvas Shoes,

The matching" idea is so strong
just now that girls may like to know
that white canvas shoes may be col
ored to match any costume. The pro.
cess of dyeing will shrink the shoes.
but they may be successfully painted
with good water-color paint
Mount the shoes on trees. II you
do not own shoe-trees. stun the shoes
evenly with tissue paper. Then ap,
ply the paint with a good-sized bristle
brush or a sponge.
Care should be taken to prepare
sufficient paint before commencing the
painting; the canvas being very alb.
sorbent. you will need a generous
amount. As an even tint depends up.
on expeditions work. you can readily
see the disadvantage of having to
stop in the midst of the operation to
mix more paint.

Lake George is connected with lake
Champlain. and is one OF the most
beautiful sheets of water in the
United States.
As seen on the pitcher. one not only
obtains a view OF the lake. but of
Prospect mountain. which looms large

The picture is done IN various col

Mr.. Tucker. the owner and manager
OF the Lake house. One OF them was

England. but to whom has never been
discovered. The other Mr.. Sherman
obtained not long ago. from one OF Mr..
fuckers relatives.
In its early days the Lake house
could be reached only by means OF the
stage route from Glens Falls. The
building was torn down nine years
ago. and while there are other hotels
on the lake. there is none on the Lake
house site. which is not far from old
fort George.
The ruins OF fort Ticondereroga are
