ECONOMICAL PRIZES.
{ aint> Little Bows Made From Short
lenuths Of Silk

It is the custom to give prizes fer
all game and contest entertainments;
therefore the woman who does much
new ideas.
A girl who has not much money to
spend, but whose parties are enjoyed
for their informally and the touch Of
novelty found in the arrangements
hit upon "a set Of prizes for recent
they may be suggestive.
Dainty handkerchief boxes covered
with stylish blue and white japanese
paper were lined with white tissue
paper. and in each box were put two
belts and two small silk bows to
match. Tinseled and fancy betting
was used. and the double bows were
not more than two inches across when
finished
The belts can be picked up quite
cheaply when sales are watched. and
each tie takes less than an eighth Of Il
yard Of silk. They are simple to make.
n consideration with a busy girl
A pattern for each loop was Il semi
circle about two inches and half long
and two inches deep. The straight
edge was put on the fold Of the silk
ard the material cut double. Four of
these pieces were cut. and each one
was gathered around the curved edge
and drawn up into as tight neck as
possible.
Two loops were then sewed together
neck to neck. and one set Of loops was
placed on top Of the other and the
joining covered with narrow fold of
silk.
Half dozen such bows can be made
In shcrt time. and If pretty colors
are chosen they are extremely becom-
ing. besides making an artistic looking
Gift when combined in the box with
contrasting shades.

GOOD ROAD POINTERS

Expert Tells How to Keep a Road In
Good Condition and Avoid Trouble.
Don't Be Satisfied, He Says, With
Anything but the Best.

Don't Be Satisfied, He Says, With
Anything but the Best.
Excellent advice on the care and
construction of roads is contained in
the following set OF suggestions to
road supervisors, which were compiled
by Robert A. Meeker. state super
visor of roads in New Jersey:
Don't leave grass and weeds on the
shoulders and in the cutters.
Don't dig the mud out of the cutters
and throw 1t upon the road.
Don't leave dirt In piles on the road.
the road surface.
Don't dump stone or gravel on an
old road without first preparing the
surface to receive it, because you
thereby cause willful waste and woeful
want.
Don't place new material on the road
without leveling and shaping it SO that
the grade and cross section Of the road
will be unchanged.
Don't expect travel to spread and
roll the new material. One-half Of the
money spent is wasted by this method.
Don't put new material on an old
hard road surface before first picking
or locsening the old covering. 1t il
good for the quarryman and gravel
owner. but bad for the taxpayer and
road user
Don't try to do work without proper
tools.
Don't leave your scarifier in the shed.
Don't forget to use your sprinkling
wagon.
Don't let your steam roller be idle.
Don't think any old tools are good
enough for road work.
Don't use dull picks. broken shovels.
dull scrapcr blades or broken and
leaky steam rollers.
Don't waste your rainy days.
Don't let water stand on your road.
Don't try to repair a road in dry
weather without liberal use of water.

noting that her own envelope was a

ened to give out, he determined to call
