Publicitv Question,

Another question that will probably
attract considerable attention tonight,
will be that of securing a publicity
agent to succeed W. G.. Souther, who
recently resigned. The name of Larned
z. Meacham, the Alfalfa booster, has
been suggested, bat it has not yet been
determined whether he is open for such
a situation.

How to Apply the Design

HERE are two ways to apply
this design to the material
upon which you wish to work it.
If your material is sheer-such
as handkerchief linen, lawn, batiste
and the like-the simplest method
is to lay the material over the de-
sign, and, with a well-pointed pencil,
draw over each line.
If your material is heavy. secure
a piece of transfer or impression
paper. Lay it, face down, upon this;
then draw over each line of the
paper design with hard pencil or
the point of steel knitting needle.
Upon lifting the pattern and trans
fer naner YOU will find neat and
accurate impression of the design
upon Your material.
There are two points to observe
IN this simple process, if you would
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1909-03-21

execute it satisfactorily. One is,
see that your material is level-cut
and folded by a thread-ande that
your design is placed upon it evenly
at every point.
The second is, when placed accu-
rately, secure the design to the ma
terial with thumb tacks or pins 80
that they cannot clip during the
operation.
Transfer paper comes IL white,
black, blue, red and yellow. l adj
wise the use Of the lighter colors
when possible. as the black and blue
are so liable to crock.
Do not rest your hands or fingers
upon any part of the design you are
transferring. else the imprint OF
hand or fingers will be as distinct
upon the material as the drawn
lines of the design.

Aprons

Many pockets. with the lower corners

The Hand-Crocheted
Dolly

/" HESE little table mats are old
fashioned. but SO are many things
u that are good to look at and SUBJ
stantial. These are the exact reasons
for their revival. They are crocheted
with a fine hook and coarse thread into
a closely worked mat, SO that they are
firm and bold In design.
Usually they are made in sets, the
doilies varying from the tumbler size.
five inches In diameter. to a ten or
twelve-inch size.
No new ideas in decoration could be
more suitable for use on the antique
mahogany table than these little old
time crocheted doilies.

on the shoulders give added fulness to
the waist. and it Is not absolutely nee

STITCHES TO USE
But first must tell You about the en-

mercerized cotton. while the center OF

As TO the box pleat, make an ordi-

smooth embr oidery.
French and ecclesiastical linen are
suitable for embroidering upon, but
while they are very desirable for
dresses, they have not the finish that is
required for the centerpiece to make it
correspond with the satiny weave Of

~ AMASK linen is the
best quality for the
- table centerpiece. It
has an evenness that is
beautiful, a firmness that is
durable and a singular
smoothness of weave, ow-
ing to It's round thread. that
allows the working cotton
to draw through it with
very desirable ease. II there
is doubt in the mind of the
worker. let her satisfy her
self as to the difference by
a trial Of several other
qualities. There is a stiff
and well dressed" linen
whose glossy surface shows
every needle prick. and in
which the needle and cot
ton. passing through 1t,
'eave a distinct hole. This
makes II difficult to en-
broider and a failure as to
final result. Sheeting linen
has less dressing in it. but
is more suitable for suits
