Richest Western Heiress.

Misfortunes. they say. never come
singly. But how about fortunes? Let
us all be optimists. Here is Miss Jen-
ME Crocker of San Francisco. who has
fallen heir TO three fortunes. one after
the other. Each of them Is a plurality
of millions. Altogether they foot up
about $1O,OO0.OO0. which supplies plen-
ty of pin money to the young heiress
from the interest alone and leaves the
principal invested where it earns a
large income. First Miss Crocker in.
herited a cool $4,000 . from her late
father. Fred Crocker. That seemed al
most enough for one girl. but whei
her sister. Mrs. Mary Crocker Hafri-
son. died the heiress received nearl,
$2.OOO.OO more. With Two fortunes il
hand Miss Crocker was the ln,SI en-
Wed girl in the west. Recently her uu
Gle. George Croker. died and left he
about $3.OO0.O00. Fortune M. g.. Mis-
Croker still has other relatives aliv

Four Women Lawyers.

The city of st. Paul has four women
lawyers, all of whom are said to be
doing a prosperous practice. Miss
Irene 9. Buell.. one of the legal quar-
tet, took down her account book
when INVITED by a mere man lawyer
at the end of a month recently n
showed hat she had made $500 that
month. The man capitulated. He had
earned only $3.50. Miss Buell.. strange
to say, inclines toward practice in he
criminal courts. She says women
don't like to employ women lawyers,
while most of the men are skeptical
as to their ability until by hook or
crook they get a chance to show their
mettle. Miss Essie W. Williams, on
the other hand. says some of her best
clients are women In her graduating
class she was the only woman, there
being twenty-one men She had a
hard time getting a place in a law
office, though finally she found an es-
tablished man lawyer who was willing
to give a woman a chance. Miss Anna
Lambert has been practicing about a
year. She also does a considerable
business In abstracts. That seems
rather a dull line for a woman to take
up. but Miss Lambert says she doesn't
mind so long as it pays. The fourth
in the st. Paul quartet is the veteran
of them all. Mrs. M. ID. Smith. She
has been in active practice W years.

Mrs. Murdoch herself went home from
boarding school at sixteen, against the
advice of her parents, but with their
reluctant approval when they saw how
serious a case of love 1t was, to marry
Mr.. Murdoch. who was nineteen.
Young Murdock's father, who was edi-
tor Of the Wichita Eagle, called his
son to task for marrying so young.
"You can't support a wife," said pater.
"Look here. dad" replied Victor;
"you're a big man In Kansas now, but
the time will come when you will be
known as the father of Victor Muir
dock" That was only nineteen years
ago. Murdoch has been in congress
so long that he Is almost an old timer,
though only thirty-eight years old.
Mrs. Murdoch. his girl wife, is a home
loving woman. Her only sorrow on
account of her husbands public life
Is that she must leave her home in
AAr1iehhits aad-eo-te-MRshins -dHEinz
sessions of congress. She said the
other day: "From my W standpoint
l approve of marrying young. but. of
course. never do so except from the
strongest devotion and because you
simply cannot live without the man
you love. Still. l can realize many OBJ
jections to such early unions as ours.
That it has terminated so happily is
Murdock's biographers think It,"

Mr.. EDITOR:
In last weeks issue of your JOURNAL
there appeared a small paragraph in
regards to a surprise party given to
and in honor of MI. and Mrs. K. Kloo's
tenth anniversary on all-fools eve. Be
that as it may, but as to me being one
of the party on that occasion, / wish
to say is a false statement, and when
people undertake to do great things
in this life my advice would be to try
to do such. things right and truthfully.

Mending Day

HY HERE IS nothing on earsh lks
system; and nowhere do you real
Il ize this more than in matters or
dress. The tiny hole in your stocking
that you might have mended in two
minutes. grows into an undarnable
run: the rip under the arm in your
new blouse extends alarmingly; moth
ing that must be mended stays where
it is put"
The remedy for all this Is a regular
mending day-Or a regular mending
evening. II you are a business woman.
AS soon as a garment needs mending-
if it be only a button or a hook that
must be replaced-put 1t aside, unless
1t is so necessary that you must at
tend to the trouble at once: and when
mending day rolls around do the re-
quired sewing You will be surprised to
find how much lighter your work be-
comes when you can thus catch rents
and tears at their start instead OF ae
their disastrous finish
The other point to remember Is al
ways TO have your sewing implements
where you can get them and in perfect
order. Do not wait until the very mo-
ment for mending to find that you are
out of white thread or that your
needles are rusty. When a thing needs
repairing. repair It: when It needs re-
placing, replace It. 1t might even be
a good thing TO have a regular ''prepa-
ration day. to antedate the nendtng

TWo-Sided Embroidery

TN EMBROIDERING articles OF dress
It IS an immense help If the embroid-
Il cry IS alike on both sides. The
orientals have for. some time nonop-
olized this art, but that Il not
at all an unavoidable condition. for
we could acquire the method easily
If we would bestow a little trouble
and patience and accurate stitches.
What an advantage this treatment Is
in scarfs. neckties. fans. jabots and
tunics!
Begin with easy designs, neither IN
tricate nor elaborate. in a frame, so
that both hands can be used. Raised
satin stitch is the most suitable. the
stitches slightly slanting. Fill IN your
pattern as you go, and fasten or each
thread securely and invisib1y-you
must follow the outline accurately.
To work a dot the same on both
sides, begin in the center. finishing
first one half and then the other.
Hens must not be outlined; conven-
tionalized patterns are more easily
worked in this way. OF course. you
must never use a knots and pun the
stitches very close together. but
never overlap. Us4 both hands, one
above the other, in working.

Embroidery Apron

VERY simple apron for embroid-
II erers is made OF a big square OF
- n lawn or dimity, turned up about
a third Of it's length and featherstitch-
ed into four pockets. Three of these
hold embroidery pieces; the fourth is
again featherstitched into five divisions,
each for separate color of silk The
hem on these pockets is lined with
canton flannel before being turned down
and featherstitched, and is used as
needle case. The rest OF the goods Is
hemmed all around and provided with
ribbon drawing strings. so that 1t can
be worn as an apron.
This is especially pretty in some light
color. such as pink. with deeper pink
embroidery and ribbons, or in white
with some such dainty shade as baby
blue or nile green. The silk and ribbon
should both be washable, so that the
whole apron can go in the tub when
necessary. It is a pretty gift to an
embroiderer, and one that will come In
handy during afternoon neighborhood
calls. or IN winter evenings spent at
home.

Knitted Costumes

II ARIS has taken up the vogue OF
knitted goods. and taken Il up
with a will The latest fancy Is
the three-piece costume. consisting OF
cap. gloves and sweater coat. This IN
intended primarily for skating. etc. but
will be worn this winter even on the
street. The coats are very long. with
deep pockets and with leather rsvers
and turnback cuffs.
Among caps there are the tam-o'-

ter buttoning in front and Rsavine a
warm little cape thar fits about the
neck and shoulders

hand embroidery. even in such simple
forms as featherstitching, are another
way Of relieving the monotony Of the
long line. Sometimes even bands OF
another color are introduced. without
affecting the kimono style. for these
bands. too. are cut without line at the
shoulder.
Sometimes. too. in veiled and draped
blouses the yelling is stitched down or
gathered at what we have come to call
the "kirnono line and this part OF the
bodice alone is left unveiled. or the yoke
is treated in the same way.
The under side of sleeves now is fire.

OF the blouse-that is TO say, in bolsro
effect. The whole upper half OF the
blouse may be black. for instance, ana
the lower half white. with the sleeves
showing the vertical line OF demarca-
ton. This. of course. emphasizes the
kirnono line and makes an effective -od-
ifcation.
Rrafdiug NAV also be used on the
sleeve for this purpose. sOutache or rat
tail braid being extended in double
row down the front and back Of the
shoulder lire This braid may be IN the
same or in a different color from the
rest Of the blouse. and it may be
straight or waved in outline. preferably
the former.
Here. then. are almost dozen ways
for the modification Of the kimono
sleeve. and never again need you COM
plain of the monotony OF this style.

feet is close at hand.

The Bathroom Rug

n ONE sort of pretty rug is necessary
to put beside the bathtub TO step
~ out upon. and 1t is essential that It
should be OF some material in which the
colors are well set. There are on sale
cork mats and others which resemble
turkish toweling, except they are of
heavy weight, but the rug to be made
at home is frequently in demand
One IS made of coarse basket canv as,
with plushlike center. the embroidery
being worked with thick ingram or col
ored cotton, and each stitch crossing
over one thread OF the material The
pattern may be worked all over or
merely as a border with plain center.
but when covered all over the mat viii

Odd lengths Of brussels carpet may be
turned to good account for mats with
a finish on the ends of wOrsted fringe or

A USEFUL
SPONGE BAG.

ATOW is the time OF year when TFe
M OF slender means cast about us
a for ideas for inexpensive home
made gifts for the holiday season SO
soon 10 come.
The following suggestion for a use
ful and dainty sponge bag. which need
cost only a few cents for material, viii
perhaps be acceptable:
Purchase q small piece of thin sheet
rubber "a quarter of yard VIII be
enough for one bag. and cut a piece
measuring Is inches long, and about
inches wide. The next thing required
Is a piece Of washable cretonne l5
inches by TX inches. Stitch this and the
sheet rubber together all round three
sides on the wrong side, and then turn
out on to the right side.
After this the raw edges must be
turned in on the one side to make it
cutie neat, and tackled. The whole is
stitched round again about a quarter
OF an inch from the edge. The bottom
must next be turned up about inches,
70 form a sort Of pocket or envelope
Il only remains now TO fix on two
patent glove clasps and the sponge bag
is complete.
OF course. if a more elaborate bag is
desired, the edges may be bound with
narrow silk ribbon and each corner
finished off with a small bow OF the
same: or the material, instead Of being
cretonne. might be Of some pretty art
linen or canvas. which woRd lend itself
10 as much decoration as the occasion
hac ~
tan or pale green or blue canvas would
look very pretty indeed with an artistic
design worked upon it. and the word
Sponge" embroidered across from cor
ner TO corner diagonally.
White linen, daintily embpoidered with
washing silks, would alsol look very
charming. or even the more intricate
ribbon work might be chosen as a trim
ming for this very useful article.
A similar bag would be extremely
handy for holding tooth and nail
brushes If made long and narrow, in
which case the materials should meas
ure g inches square. and two little loops
Of tape should be fixed IN which to
insert the handle Of the brush. and a
little pocket sewed, inside the bag, for
the purpose OF holding a tiny box OF
tooth powder
The same idea could be carried out
on a much larger scale for use as a.
brush-and-comb bag. but in this in
stance the rubber should be substituted
by some stiff material. such as holland
or linen.
Indeed. one large bag for all three
purposes would be quite practicable.
The three bags or cases. made in
the same material and prettily dec
GRATED, would make an ideal present, OF
would be a very dainty addition for the
holiday outfit.

rows.
Then there is the line
of drawn work or Of
coarse hemstitching
marking and defining
the kimono line. This
is very effective on
rather a heavy waist,
and perhaps in another
color-say, in dark red
or green on natural-
colored pongee. 1t is
pretty also, however,
in white on lingerie
waists, and especially
in cream or white silk
on a silk crepe or china
silk waist. Catstitch-
Ing is used in the same
way, with heavy floss
or mercerized cotton.

Ready y-Made Dresses

n FTEN you will see real bargains
in frocks and blouses on the
~ ready-made counter. Do not
give one look at the cheap lace or
trimming, or at the way the seams
are finished, and throw it back. Buy
your bargain, take 1t home and re-
deem and regenerate 1T.
Cheap lace can be replaced by good;
dainty tulle or net frills can take the
place of cheap ruffies; seams can be
restitched and coarse embroidery
worked over by hand. If the mate
rial and the cut justify your buying
the garment at all. you can give it an
individual touch that will raise the
value of your bargain rs per cent.
And even where there is nothing
noticeably cheap or common about
the garment, try to give those little
extra touches; then you will be in no
danger of meeting your new gown
on another woman at the next street
corner
