NEW IDEA IN SHIELD COVERS

Pretty Gifts.

A hostess recently made hit with
q set of prizes that appealed to her
women guests With lawn and rem
nants of valenciennes lace and inser-
ton she made two sets of shield COW
ers for each prize. one to fit the me-
dium-sized shield and one the next
size smaller. which many women pre-
fer with transparent frocks.
The covers are made in double bag
form, cut the shape of the shield, but
a l&tle larger. so that they can cas-
lily be slipped inside. The back OF
the shield is made of plain lawn. while
the front is trimmed with rows of In
sertion and edged with lace. Some
times the insertion outlined the shape
of the shield, again 1t ran diagonally
across it.
The covers were placed in a dainty
tissue-lined box and each one was pro-
vided with the smallest white safety pin
for easy adjustment.

YSAYE GOT PRECIOUS VIOLIN
Renowned vIrtuoso Owes Possession

Act Of a Friend.

An interesting story Is told OF M.
Eugene Ysaye. In his younger ana

secure a Guadagnini violin which he
saw in a pawnbroker's window In
Hamburg. Although he had not the
wherewithal, be asked the pawnbro-
ker to lay II aside. as he might be
able to purchase II some day. The
man agreed to keep II for certain
time. Ysaye went back to his rooms
with very mingled feelings. How
could he raise the necessary money!
That was the question which puzzled
and worried him. To his great sur
prise he met q friend who had Just
arrived from Belgium, and In des-
pair begged him TO lend him enough
10 buy the wonderful instrument. IT'S
a large sum TO pay" said the friend,
"and I haven't enough money with
me-" Would you lend 1t If you had!
asked the violinist. Yes" was the
reply. Look here. then" said Ysaye.
you deal In diamonds?" Yes" Then
leave a few diamonds as security and
get me the precious Guadagnini-
Ysaye's friend was surprised at the
proposal, but realizing the earnest
ness of the request. consented to DO
SO. "In this way" says Ysaye. i
was married to my first love among
the fiddles-my GuadagniHt."

THE MAN AND THE PET FERN

After supper Mr.. Man lights cigar
and sits down for a comfortable
smoke. His wife. with q regard for
husband and the neatness OF her home
evenly divided. places an ash tray on
the table near him. and cuspidor on
the floor. The man is comfortable
and happy. and would get mad II any
household disturbance caused him to
leave his chair. but he notices ashes
on the end OF his cigar. and gets up,
passes the ash holder and cuspidor.
and crosses the room to drop the
ashes on his wife's pet fern. The
wife has piled as many as ten ash
trays near the man. and surrounded
him with cuspidors. but he ignores all
of them to find his way to the pet
fern. The wife objects. and has been
known to put the pet fern in another
room to save II. but the man passes
the ash trays and cuspidors and walks
into the next room to flick OF the ash
on his cigar. The same man will
walk through six rooms. II need be.
and pass 375 burnt match holders to
drop his match beside the pet fern. II
does no good for the woman to object.
or to invest all her pin money in more
ash trays. burnt match holders and
cuspidors. for the man will never see
them on his way to the pet fern. And.
so far as domestic history relates. this
is the only recognition the man ever
gives his wife's plants. And he never
does give recognition to the ash trays,
cuspidors or burnt match holders.
