MARKET MOVEMENTS
Of THE DAY

New York, Oct. 25.-Thc speculation

practically all its incentive from the
condition of the foreign money mar.

reversed from the effects shown las,
week. This was due to the reiaxa-
tion in the foreign money markets
1t was known by the time for OPEN
ing of the New York stock market
that the German banking authorities
had decided that it was unnecessary to
advance the minimum discount rate and
the report of the condition of the bank
offered explanation for this decision
in the strengthened position disclosed.
Not only was the bank showing of
good effect on Berlin, but that GEN.
ter also had a report that the Bank
of France had determined on meas
ures to aid in relieving the interna-
tional money markets.
The Bank OF France Is possessed of
such authority over its holdings of

which made New York the most prob
able point for the diversion of the de-
mand for gold from London. With

How to Apply Design

THERE 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 ike-the simplest method
is to lay the material over the de-
sign and. with well-pointed pencil,
draw over each line.
If your material is heavy, secure
g 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 paper you will find a 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, 1909-10-17

execute it satisfactorily. One is,
see that your material is level-cut
and folded by a thread-and 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 thumbtacks or pins so
that they cannot slip during the
operation.
Transfer paper comes in white,
black. blue, red and yellow. I adj
wise the use Of the lighter colors
when possible, as the black and blue
are so liable to crock.
Do not rest your hand 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.
