there is every prospect that the huge

will again be popular.
For making these bows, materials

simple hats. while more elab rate ones
have bows OF lace or tulle burdered
with satin or soft pompadoUr silks and

The material is cut on the cross in
bands measuring from eight to ten
inches in width. and is bordered with
n double fold. in which m!lliners wire
is inserted Often this border is OF
different color, even OF different ina

either in the same or contrasting
color.
In making a bow study the shape OF
the hat and decide whether it is to be

decided from the style Of the other

the bow is finished all the loops are

There is such an art in tying q

who intends to go in for trimming her
own hats and making her own girdles
to take a few lessons in bows from

struction she may never acquire the
knack that seems to be inborn, but
her bows will not look hopelessly

SO dismiss him and his suffering
from your mind. remember an
afflicted man who could not speak
nor hear coming to the State Journal
office once and handing one of the
other reporters written message.
He had a dumb look of misery. and
his clothes were shabby and his
general appearance indicated suffer-
ing and want. and 1 supposed he
was appealing for aid. So, burning
with pity, I asked about him and was
much disappointed to find that he
had merely brought in an item. I
found myself regretting that he
wasn't in actual need of charity so I
could give him ten cents and forget
him.
In Mexico however you can't with
out considerable trouble, give to
him who asketh, any more than you
can in one of our great cities, be-
cause there are SO many beggars that
your supply of centavos is ex-
hausted before you know it, and you
can't afford to give large sums and
can't always be changing your silver
for copperS. So you have to steel
your heart and look away and con-
sole yourself by remembering that
what you would give wouldn't help
much, any way. owe always think
that, when we refuse, but if we give
a penny, we go on with a generous
swelling of the heart and a righteous
sense that we are not as other menu
OF course, in time one would get
used to it. The people who live in
Mexico all the time seem to. They
give even more than the tourists, of
course, but they do it with a little
deprecating shrug as if they were
ashamed to be annoyed into it and,
understanding it better. they are not
especially moved by the signs of
poverty and misery around them.

recommendation that legislation be

appropriation of $4,000 to secure in

a measure.
