He was lifted from his biplane by
fellow aviators, who paraded up and

FadS for Women.

Bedroom slippers that are both COM
Portable and convenient can be made
from mercerized cotton, using GRO
chet stitch. They are fashioned much on
the order of wooden slippers. except that
instead of being Joined in the back the
sides are run off to a point.
Gray makes attractive looking slippers,
and so does brown, especially when two
tones or a contrasting color is employed,
using each alternately.
The edge could be finished with a
simple shell design.
1t is said these cotton slippers keep
their shape and are much more durable
than those of wool.
So many persons add a touch of gray
to their rooms now. 1t may be a pillow
of sreenish gray silk, the soft restful
green tint of the pussy willow, or a
scrap basket painted a delicate French
gray.
Dainty brocades in gray cover boxes
picture post cards that it Is wished to
preserve.
Exquisite little trays are fashioned
from gray brocade picked out With silver
thread and covered with glass cut to fit
the size of the tray.
Even work baskets are to be seen of
gray crash, with fittings and decorations
i'll gray.
Pretty little coin bags may be made
from the tops of gloves when the hand
portions are of no further service. The
model is simple. Cut two pieces about
three inches wide and four long after
rounding off the lower corners
These are lined with q scrap of soft
wash silk and the pieces are stitched to-
gether to shape the bag.
The machine stitching may be gone
over with buttonholing in silk If de-
sired. The top of the bag is cut into
narrow fringe and Sits to admit a
threading of kid or ribbon are made Just
below. The result is. a handy little re-
ceptacle at practically no money cost
The airship hat shape is one of the
newest in millinery. From appearances,
buy it IT one possesses Il hat of the Mer-
ry Widow order.
For the new shape looks exactly like a
Merry Widow turned up in both bacx
and front until the edges of the brims
meet on the center on the low crown.
Another freak hat that will be popular
is the baker or French cook shape. The
soft tam crown is a mass Of net in one
color and the broad band is swathed
with net In q contrasting shade.
In a handsome pair of beaded suede
slippers the openwork design is partially
filed in with the beads.
Some of the theater bags are of gold
or silver network, with great raised
flower on furnished metal.
Silk and cotton and silk and linen mix
lures are to be more in evidence than
they have ever been before
