Some OLD FRIENDS RETURN
Materials Familiar to Past Genera
ton Have Again Become Popu-
lar FaVorites.

An inspection OF the materials for
summer wear show that certain old
time, reliable materials have returned
under new names. but our mothers
will recognize their friends in the
shape OF the coarse linens that re-
semble oatmeal" cloth, hopsacking
and the various basket weaves.
The feature that commends Itself
to many women is the fact that the
weave is so evident that it serves for
decoration. and. therefore, requires
very little other ornamentation. Sim
pie braiding designs or buttons are
generally sufficient for the morning
dress, Thile the square meshes Of
these coarse fabrics form excellent
backgrounds upon which designs in
cross-stitching (done with wooden OF
linen threads) may be added.
When the individual touch of en-
broidery is added, these materials are
excellent for afternoon wear, and al.
though the design is more convpn-
uonal than the trailing vines worked
by the weavers of so years ago, the
effect warrants the time expended in

Helen Of Troy
By ROYAL N. GREEN

Fred Erickson was heart-keen to
the fact that he loved the girl. but. as
yet. he had said nothing to her about
1t. In fact he had never spoken to
her. They were not acquainted with
each other
1t was what is called love at first
stght-that is, as far as Fred was con
cerned. The first time he saw her she
was sitting opposite him on a belt line
car going from Albany to Troy. and
his susceptible heart had gone pit-a-
pat. Chance thrust them together
often after that, but without an OPP
portunity to become acquainted

Albany. should have been giving his

Have You a Babv7

Every woman knows how imperative

should be absolutely and perfectly

dirt in and often make the little gar

The reason he did not attempt to

Weak banks should b. forced into
liquidation, Mr.. Murray declared. and
he would use every power conferred
on his office 10 force unsteady insti-
tutions to discontinue business before
they fail He asked the state officials
TO urge such a practice in their home
territory. Fank promoters, he con
demned in unmistakabl terms. A
list Of them is kept in the comptrol-
ler's office and he promised state Of
ficials it could be available for their
