There is a fondness for all sorts of
ruffled treatments, particularly those
that are quaint and oldtimey looking,
and they are developed in every ma
terial that is on the summer list. A
pretty little dress that looked of the
vintage Of the early eighties, was Of
fine Irish dimity, lowered stripe, in
closed between stripes of black, all on
a white ground. Yellow was the pre-
dominating color, though not very con-
spicuous among the flower coors that
made up the pattern with it. The
foundation of the skirt was plain
gored, turned in a three-inch hem at
the bottom. Meeting this hem was a
deep flounce of fine embroidery that
was applied at knee depth, with a
ruching for heading, the ruching
of the dimity Over this fell the tunic
In pannier effect. Meeting at the cen
ter-front, the two side-lengths spread
apart to disclose the whole of the
fiounce and the upper portion Of the
skirt. 1t was headed with an inch
wide rufiling of the dimity.

LITTLE TOUCHES THAT COUNT
Small Things Mark Dividing Line
Between tho Careful Dresser and
She Who Is Not.

Stylish buttons for linen frocks are
made by covering the button mold
with the material and on top Of them
making a star-shaped design of three
sections of coronation braid, two Of
the small figures of braid being used
to a section. These are crossed In
the middle of the button and taken
to the outer edge to form the star.
Stylish rosettes of velvet or satin
are made by doubling lengthwise bias
strips Of velvet three inches wide.
Basic the lower edges together to pre-
vent them slipping, then begin in cen
ire with short roll and coil around un
til all the material is used up.
A trimming for a girls hat of white
lace is a deep floral band of forget

the crown and with only the edge Of
the brim showing below it. This is
divided through the middle with sof
folds of interlaced blue ribbon ending
in a big bow at one side.

England for castiron plowshare. La.

Among those in the United States
who contributed to the development Of
the pillow were Thomas jefferson and
Daniel Webster. Webster, it will be
recalled, took great interest in things
agricultural and often went into the
fields of his own farm and held the
plow handles behind yokes of oxen.
Although better plows were then
available, in slavery days in some por-
tons OF the south pillow comprising

tongue was cross-stick which could

seated figure of large proportions
that is the first object to attract the

figure. seated there so calm and re-

Of a noted American, son or Massa-

but aside from the great man that IL
represents the statue has an historical
significance, its chief claim to d1st1nc-
ton lying in the fact, as the visitor
may learn by reading small inscrip'
ton attached to it, that it is the orig
inal plaster cast of the first bronze
statue made in America.
The figure Is that Of DR.. Nathanlel
Bowditch, the great navigator, and the
renowned mathematician and astrono
mer. The bronze statue of which this
is the plaster cast, stands in Mount
Auburn cemetery, surrounded by ar
iron fence, one of the most conspicu
Gus pieces of sculpture within thai

UsInu Up Old Ribbons.

Have you lot of bows, sashes and
hat trimmings that are too faded and
shabby for further use? Rip out all
the stitches, clean off all spots, press
all wrinkles and then put them into
a dye pot with silk dye.
If you select ribbon of nearly the
same color and quality to go in the
pot at one time you should have
enough good looking ribbon to make
nice plated frills for the winter petit
coat.
These dyed ribbons can also be util
lied as color Innings, facings or in
making a patchwork quilt. For such
permanent work. however, 1t is better
not to dye as it sometimes rots silk
Wash ribbon carefully and use the
best bits.

More than three-quarters of century

Still others performed crochet work,

came yet later.
Elias Howe set the ball rolling in
1S46 when he took out his patent for

interlocking two threads. Like SO
many inventors of that time he had

fine dreamy face. He is attired in
knee breaches and dressing gown of
ample folds. On the right knee Is a
large volume, intended, no doubt to
represent his great work to naviga

of the chair are more books. The

Ball Hughes not only modelled the
first statue to be cast in bronze in
America, but he is said to have carved
the first portrait figure sculptured in
marble in this country. This was a
statue of Alexander Hamilton erected
in 1885 in the rotunda of the New
York Merchants Exchange, which was
destroyed eight months later by fire.
Among the priced relics in the Boston
Atheneum, carefully guarded in an up
per storeroom of the Beacon street
library building, is the little model Of
this historic work.
Nathaniel Bowditch, who was a ma.
tive of Salem, died in Boston in 1888.
For some years before his death he
and the sculptor Hughes were close
friends. Bowditch was an extraor-
binary genius. At ten years of age
the straitened circumstances of his
parents forced him to leave school,
and from twelve to twenty-one he
was an apprentice in a ship chandler
shop. Then he passed nine years at
sea, finally becoming master of a
ship. After quitting his nautical life
