London at Night.

There are few views which make
a stronger appeal to the magma
ton than that Of the Thames at
night, seen from some point that
gives a view Of the historic towers
of Westminster rising into the pur-
pie sky, and the long frontage of
giant hotels, Illuminated from base
ment to attics. The ugly features
that crude daylight reveals are for
gotten and the hum and hustle of
the vast city reach one softened and
poetized. 1t is the London of Whis-
tier and Turner-an aspect of their
own city Of which many Londoners
know nothing.-Home Messenger.

paint is so that the color will not wash

To make the handles, select two
fine strands of reed, and buttonhole
stitch over them with raffla. Put q
loop of reed through each side OF the
basket and through this slip the ends
of the handles, fastening firmly with
raffla.
To hold down the cover, a little but
ton of reed and rafia is put on, such
as is found on any basket. The cover
is tied on with rafla from the wrong
side. A piece of the mating is put
in for division inside the basket, so
that the sandwiches may be kept In
one side and the little cakes or fruit
in the other.
