Knitting Bag Will Be Helpful For
Miladi This Summer.
For the persistent knitter there may
be had a yarn holder that is better
than human hands In the way it holds
and moves the skein. 1t has four
arms, yet 1t does not provoke the
smothered wrath of the winder, who
is dependent on some two armed friend
who perchance reluctantly consents to
hold the skein and hurries off the
yarn by waving his arms like q wind
mill.
There are so few things for the
woman who knits that we feel like
passing along whatever new ideas we
hear of. There is a deligAtful knit
ting bag made to serve the same pur-
pose that the bracelet basket is made
for. l think we all know the little
round or oblong basket that holds the
knitting ball and swings yer the arm
of the knitter.
The new linen canvas bag - cut In
two pieces. not unlike the rounded
sides of a leather shopping bag in
shape, except that these sides slope
gradually up into a narrow strip two
or three inches wide.
The sides are Joined together to hold
the knitting. This basket shaped at
fair is lined, including the strips which
are Joined together to form a handle.
This is slipped over the arm. The bag

hours, and heavy police patrol ia nee
essary to maintain order 10 the japanese

part Of gigantic scheme that has been
growing for some time In the Islands
whereby they are to again control of the
industril situation here.
The officers refuse to disulge the con-
tents Of the letters and papers seized,

SENATE.

Radium received it first official
recognition in this county Today when
the Senate, by unanimous vote, decided
to place 1t on the free list. 1t was an
known when the Dingley bill was passed
and to care for it special paragraph,
number 665 IL, Was created in the
tariff bill.
The potash paragraph in the free list
was approved but Senator CLARK, OF
Wyoming, was given the right to call 1t
up for an amendment If he chose to do
so. Mr.. Clark said that he might ask
for On amendment but was undecided.
Senator Nelson, of Minnesota, started
q long discussion by offering an amend
ment TO strike sage -four from the free
list.
Mr.. Aldrich replied that sage and
tapioca -four we're used IS food In al
most every household, and had always
oeen on the free list and should remain
there.
Senator Frye suggested that the par
agraph be amended so as to distinguish
ssgo -four and tspiocs -four for use as
food from that 1sed as starch. M. Al

made by these high tariff bills, should
