VALUABLE SEWING HINTS VERY LATEST IN GLOVES
Things Worth Knowing for My Lady
Of the NeedIe-AVoid the
Knot.

The geimpe Of plain sheer tulle or
net is more frequently used than that
Of tucks. The yoke is extremely shall
low; and the clear flesh tint Is the
usual color.
A dainty little workbag, just fitted
10 hold the embroidered collars and
belts and other paraphernalia of the
summer piazza, is of figured lawn, over
lining of light blue china silk. China
silk makes a good lining, by the way,
for bags which are, to hold embroid-
cry silks and other things which
might be likely to catch upon rougher
fabrics On each side Of the bag Is
semicirc1e of lace insertion, border
ed with shirring of blue baby ribbon.
The embroidery hoop handles are Gov
cred with blue ribbon.
The use of a knot is to be avoided
IN sewing and not to be tolerated in
embroidery. The accomplished needle
woman rarely finds 1t necessary to
start with knot, save in gathering or
basting. Sometimes a tiny one is
slipped under a hem, but 1t will show
on right side If material Is sheer and
makes an ugly lump in ironing. Two
or three over and over stitches taken
on wrong side of material is as secure
as knot and much more slightly. In
embroidery there is no excuse for a
knot. Two or three tiny stitches Ia
ken on outline or in body of work
where it Is afterward covered will
hold any stitches. Knots only tend
to an untidy wrong side, which no
good embroiderer will tolerate and
make the work rough in laundering.

WAYS OF CATCHING MONKEYS
Filipino Natives Have Decidedly In,
teresting Method of Capturing
Lazy Little Animals.

In the Philippine Islands the ma.
tives catch monkeys in curious
way.
The monkeys are fond of the meat
of cocoanuts, which grow as plenti
fully there as apples do in our coun-
try. They are lazy, though, about
gnawing through the outer bark, and
will only do so when exceedingly hun
CRY. The natives take advantage of
their greed and Incidence by cutting
a small opening through the shell, just
large enough for Mr.. Monkeys long,
thin hand to penetrate.
When he once gets inside, he gets
his hands full of delicious, dainty
meat, and his hand is naturally WI
der in this act than when 1t entered.
Finding his hand will not come out
the monkey chatters and scolds, plain
~ showing his indignation at the way
he has been trapped, but never thinks
of loosening his hold on the cocoa
nut and withdrawing his hands as cas-
lily as he put 1t in. There he stands,
an angry monkey, until the man who
set the cocoanut trap comes and takes
him captive.

TELEPHONE OF SPIDER WEB
Large, Ugly insect Is Easily Deceived
BY Tuning Fork Placed on One
of the Tiny Threads.

A gentleman in Ohio was watch
ing some spiders, when 1t occurred to
him to try what effect the sound of
d tuning fork would have upon them.
He suspected that they would take it
for the buZzing of a fly.
He selected large, ugly spider that
had been feasting on flies for two
months The spider was at one edge
of its web. Sounding the fork, the
man touched thread at the other
side and watched the result. Mr.. Spi-
der had the buzzing sound conveyed
to him over his telephone wires, but
how was he to know on which partic-
ular wire it was travelling?
He ran to the center of the web
very quickly and felt all around I'M
til he touched the thread against the
other end of which the fork was
sounding; then, taking another thread
along, just as a man would take an
extra piece of rope, he ran out to the
fork and sprang upon it.
Then he retreated little way and
looked at the fork He was puzzled.
He had expected to find buzzing fly.
He got on the fork again and danced
with delight. Evidently the sound was
music to him.

Summer ErlIIs and FixInas.

Dutch necks and collarless dresses
are spelling the demand for ear-hefght
collars and some Of the departments
tell you frankly If you ask for extreme
" high ones that they do not have
them. There Is sort of craze among
the girls who like to be odd and
quaint for the low collars with
colored embroidery to match their
suits and with them. of course, go en-
broidered jabots or bows to match.
One needs an extra trunk this season
for mere trifes such as this If ones
wardrobe is half equipped with frills,
collars, neck fxings generally and
belts and sashes. This is to say not
word about the chiffon overwaist
that daughters prodigal Of time are
making by the score for the varying Of
their toilets.

Pink silk gloves are reversible to

White kid gloves are stitched In col

The stitching itself is varied: a

Yellow Isle gloves are cool and
washable, and look like the fashion

Thin brown cloth gauntlets are good

MANY BENEFITS TO FARMERS
Cooperation Aids AericuIturIst to
Raise Full Crop, Improve Land
and Build Up Stock.

In nothing has cooperation been Of
80 much service as in farming. To
brace the farmer up to raise full
crop, Of good quality, Of the kind that
Is most needed and therefore brings
the best price. that will improve his
land by manure and drainage and cul-
tiVation. that will improve his stock
and bring his intelligence into play
these are the largest benefits that
come from association In a farmers
business organization, says Desert
Farmer. Next comes the assembling
and manipulation of his crop to put
the raw material into shape for the
markets, one step toward the con-
sumner, one middleman skipped BY
this association, the benefit of
leadership Is secured. From the so
or 100 or 500 constituting the associa-
ton, five or ten directors are selected
for their superior ability and their
willingness to apply this ability for
the equal good of the less able.
There are these two important diff
ferences between this cooperation and
state socialism-it Is voluntary;
each member benefits by his own effort
and suffers by his own deficiency.
What men do voluntarily they COM
monty do better than what they do by
force. By process of education in
voluntary associations, men would be-
come social and find enjoyment in
doing not only their own share, but
their best for the good of ALL They
would not do 1t as they now are; and
there is no ground for the assertion
that they would be suddenly changed
by change in system. Law does not
change men, it hardly changes affairs
New laws intended to check men and
corporations from getting rich and
others from getting poor have been
passed ever since we can remember,
but there are bigger millionaires and
more renters and hirelings now than
ever. Such laws fail to work as in
tended
There is the same opening for get
ting rich by trade and speculation and
for staying poor by hiring out for
ready money now as there was In the
f1fties, no more and no less. There is
better opening now for starting busi-
ness than there was so years ago.
We know of one man who lately COM
pleted organizing farm neighbor-
hood in Louisiana into a cooperative
dairy association. Most of the farm
ers started there in the last five to
fifteen years, with little or nothing,
and are doing well Among them are
several Norwegians from Minnesota
and Wisconsin, every one of whom is
prosperous. Only one brought any
more means than any Industrious
worker in town or country can lay I'D
In a few years.
