A SAVING STITCH.


One weary mother who had let out
tucks In her small daughters petticoats
until she reached the stage of rebellion
evolved this very simple and effica-
cious plan of lengthening; The shoulder
seams were made several inches longer
than was necessary. I'M instead of
being sewn together they were left
open AND neatly bound around the
edge with tape. The petticoat was adj
1usted to the little lady and the ends
of the shoulder seams Tapped and fas-
tened with the patent clamps (such as
hold the packets of skirts). AS she
grew the laps became smaller, until
the full reserve was used. This method
makes easier work for the ~laundress,
too, as the little garments are much
easier to iron with the shoulder seams
free.

FLORAL DECORATIONS.

Flowers add so much to tho cheerful
ness OF the home, even though we may
not be extravagant In buying them Law
ishly. A few flowers tastefully ar
ranged brighten the entire appearance
of a room. Dinner tables look bare and
neglected without the little vase of
flowers or centrepiece Of ferns.
Never keep flowers after they start
to fade and die. In winter a bit of
holly, ~variegated Ivy or evergreen
of any variety will give just the little
touch of ch%eerfulness needed to coun-
teract the dull grayness of the out of
doors. Foliage plants are excellent for
the house. The Boston fern, rubber
tree and sword fern grow well In the
house.

NEW COUTURE.


The Brittany couture is again in
style. 1t is far better without a hat
than under one, though experts man.
age to make 1t quite graceful. It's
main feature is the roll of braided hair
over each ear. There is a parting in
front or at the side and always a
slight fringe across the brow.
No ornaments are worn in the hair
with this coiffure unless one finds a
jeweled band above the brow becom-
ing. As for these bands, there seems
no end to them. Girls and dowagers
wore them alike. made of jeweled
gauze. of tinseled chiffon. of studded
metal ribbon. White ones, all crystals
and pearls, are quite fashionable.
The newest n is called the Amazon
circlet, but 1t is trying to most women.
It needs a certain kind of strong, pic
turesque face under it.

AN EMBROIDERY HINT.


When preparing a piece of linen for
Mexican drawnwork, which Is sure to
again be sought out by those who ad-
mire beautiful needlework. the linen
should never be cut with shears, but
torn along the weave. This will show
whether 1t will be necessary to wash
the material in order to allow of it's
being pulled into correct rectangular
shape. The best work of this kind Is
done by pulling about n dozen of the
strings out, for by taking out this
amount 1t will not require the close in
spection that many of the machine
made pieces call for, and thus it will be
more effective and clearly will elicit the
admiration that the possessor will be
glad to note.
