Dainty Veil Gases
That Are Both Prac-
tical aDd OrDa-
n0eDeal.

Women who do only little fancy
needlework are making exquisite veil
cases which are both practical and or
namental. Many of the deft fingered
workers are planning several cases OF
different colors and patterns for gifts,
knowing that the woman does not ex-
fist who could fail to appreciate a trife
SO dainty and useful. The cases are
twenty or twenty-four inches in length
and about ten in width. Two straight
pieces OF silk by the yard or of very
wide ribbon form the bottom OF the
case, the two sections being cut exact
ly alike, one to go on the top and one
on the bottom, with little cotton
wadding and some sachet powder be-
tween The case will lie flatter and
keep its shape better If the silk Is
sewed over foundation of blotting pa
per. This will retain the perfume
much longer than any other kind OF
filling.
The upper part Of the case has two
sections which open from the center
like covers. These are made over blot
ting paper with cotton wadding and
sachet powder. The edges are sewed
neatly over and over, then finished
with a gilt or fancy cord or with a
French rose ribbon binding. Between
the bottom and the top are sides made
Of wide satin ribbon shirred all around
the under section and fastened to the
upper covers. The two covers should
meet in the center, and IL they are
supplied with silk cord loops and gilt
or jeweled buttons the case can be
closed and the wells kept quite neat
The original idea has been enlarged
upon by one woman, who made set
Of satin-covered partitions a little
smaller than the dimensions Of the
case to be slipped in between the diff
ferent colors of wells and thus keep
them separate. Instead of having to
go through all the wells to find the one
she wants, all she needs to do is to
look for the black, white, gray or blue
sections, and there are all her wells Of
this particular color.
Dainty gold fowered brocades, ex-
quisite pompadour silks and figured
satins are the favorite materials for
these cases. They are kept on top Of
the long dressing table within easy
reach. II one is greatly devoted to
wells two cases will be found convent
| ent, one for automobile wells and the
other for dress wells.

Motor omnibuses. motor trucks and
traction engines are so dangerously
numerous In the congested sections Of
the city Of London that conferences at
the Mansion house have been discuss

These are the grievances that citizens
complain Of; and the list suggests that
the next worst thing to losing limb

The Waistcoat Warm.

The pretty little plaided silk waist
coats intended for wear beneath the
jacket are destined to help through
the cold weather any number of wom-
en- who purchased winter suits early
in the season simply because they
looked smart, forgetting that the natty
coats, slashed away in front and with
only strap to hold them together
over the chest, are scarcely suited to
a northern winter. The little waist
coats are interlined with chamois and
have satin backs that exactly match
the coat Innings Some of them are
made with high, snug collars which
fasten in incroyable fashion about the
throat.

One of the large eastern newspapers
has recently abandoned the comic
supplement" of Its Sunday edition.
The change was followed by discus
sion In other papers Of the merits and
faults OF the comic supplement. Pres
ident Hadley made 1t plain in his re-
cent article In the Youths Companion
that the existence Of any feature" of
q newspaper, good or bad. is deter
mined by the people, and that the
newspapers purvey what they have
found by experience the people are
ready to buy. In this. as in other mat
ters, We have no one to blame for
faults but ourselyes--and our next
door neighbors.

One of the popular devices for trim
ming large hats now Is to use four
extra thick short plumes. The stems
of these are well cut of and the
feathers are mounted in the center
of the crown.
They fall to the brim, in an i'm
mense cascade quite covering the
