For the Traveller
TIME necessities of the traveller

"HE necessities of the traveller are
SO generously anticipated nowa-
- days that roughing 1t IL fast ~
coming a thing OF the past.
The finding of what Is wanted In =
hurry is a well-known difficulty to those
en- route: In fact. a lucky traveller Is he
who can get within a few miles OF Ger
tain necessary items at q given time.
Modern cases have been designed b.
the clever for almost everything under
the sun. and among the latest are those
for various wants peculiar to the indi.
vidual.
There. for instance. Is the case for
the telegraph blanks. 1t will be q boon
to the man with the telegraphing habit
we'll developed.
Then we are shown the tablet or case
containing space for the travellers own
checks and a permanent blotter to pre-
vent the blurring.
For the invalid there Is useful case
specially designed to carry prescriptions.
and for the inveterate gadabout from
place to place there are numerous forms
OF luggage label cases made OF crocodile
skin. morocco and leather In the most
attractive colors. such as blue. moss
green and red. Every hardened traveller
fnvents her own luggage labels and has
them made for her. SO that she may
identify her baggage with celebrity.
A very luxurious case contains all the
smaller ones that have previously been
mentioned. and has a drawer with Sc
cret opening. SO that the contents there
in are absolutely safe from prying eyes.
How to carry her money while travel
ing is a problem that many women
would gladly solve. Every nation has
its own coinage. and when the money
Is mixed 1t is indeed troublesome to pick
out the piece that is wanted. case
that takes English. French. German and
American coins and notes is a capital
idea. and the more SO since It Is inclosed

THERE are two ways to apply
L 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 hke-the simplest method
is to lay the material over the de-
sign and, with a well-pointed pencil.
draw over each line.
Ii your materi..l 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 paper you will find neat and
accurate impression OF the design
upon YOUR material.
here are two points to observe
in this simple process, if you would
execute it satisfactorily. One is,
sec that your material is level-cut
and folded by a thread-and that
your design is placed upon it evenly
4 every point.
The second is, when placed accu-
ratelv. secure the design to the ma
terial with thumbtacks or pins SO
that they cannot slip during the
operation.

over it a narrow gold lace galloon.
To be as French as possible in effect,
the creamy tone of the silk should be
soft and old. the rococo embroidery Of
flowers should be soft in tone and the
galloon Of a more bronze coloring.

Mending With Plaster

T LIEU of drawing the torn edges
of a dress together with silk
l. thread. or even with the frayed
threads of the material. an excellent
plan lies in your medicine chest.
That sounds trif1e startling to the
needleworker, but listen. A piece OF
court plaster will form a good work
ing basis upon which a comparatively
invisible reparation can be made.
If the tear be on the plain width the
skirt should be laid upon a table, the
edges pulled together and pinned
down and finally the strip of court
plaster applied. A hot iron will press
the edges together. and the frayed
threads should be cut away as dn-
ishing touch.
