RIckraek Trimming.

Hickrack trimming. -
Older women will distinctly remem.
Der the, attractive trimming that as
girls they made with linen rickrack
braid, and think Will be glad to learn
that such trimming Is coming In again
and promises to be as popular as 1t
was 80 years ago. 81,
To-day, however, very much more
elaborate trimming is made, by com.
blning a fine linen braid with GRO
cheted thread. Beautiful medallions,
edges, lace and centerpieces can cas-.
lily be made and VIII be found most
fascinating work.
A lingerie blorse trimmed with
daisy medallions OF rickrack and Irish
crochet is especially attractive. First
crochet a center about the size OF a
five.cent piece, making little loops In
the center with linen thread to stimu-
late the stamens OF the flower. Around
the central disk apply the braid, catch
ing two points together and sewing
them to the edge Of the center. Con-
tfnue In this manner until the entire
center is edged. II you desire va
riety, sew another row OF braid under
the. first, thus making a double daisy.
To vary this, crochet half.inch
band OF fine lace about the edge OF the
petal. This also can be widened, but
1t is not desirable 10 have too wide
medallion on the blouse.
Square medallions are made by sew.
ing two points OF the braid together
the length OF the point, skipping two,
sewing two. and SO on until you have
four sides. From the inner points
work spider web design and on the
outer edge crochet an open lace, de.
sign on each side, taking care to
square the corners perfectly.
With little ingenuity other flowers
can be reproduced, besides any num-
Der OF lovely conventional designs.
Doth wide and narrow lace edges
arc inset with the rickrack flowers,
and when made up with crochcted cen
tiers and edges form not only beauti'
full trimming, but delightful occupa
ton for an idle hour.

About Slippers.

Some of the most beautiful slippers
arc of soft lustrIous satin, made per.
fectly plain, with medium Cuban
heel and small rhinestone buckle In
front.
Many OF them are. finished with a
soft chou of chiffon or mallne, held In
place with a round iewcled ornament,
and others have suall satin bows In
front.
For the bride white satin slippers
having n tiny cluster OF the signiii'
cant orange blossoms one the toe are
quite correct. /,
The new note in milady's shoes anu
slippers Is that heels are to be a trille
lower than heretofore and toes more
pointed.
Velvet and suede pumps have been
much worn during the summer and
will continue to he popular during the
fall. As a rule. they are so soft and
comfortable women hate to give them
up, even when cold weather sets In.
The French heel has almost entire
~ disappeared from shoes adapted to
street wear, although it,is still seen
on evening slippers.
Very beautiful are the mules de
signed for the boudoir. These soft
comfy lounging slippers are made oil
satin and brocades In the daintiesl
shades. Some are embroidered and
others are trimmed with little bows
OF lace. t.Ft n
Buckles are seen IN all the newest
slippers. Large, small and medium
1t matters not: what size Is chosen
Just SO 1t Is, buckle. They are o.
metal, often ieweled deliberately, 9th
ers leather covered, or having meta
frames inlaid with satin, suede or vel

For The Bride.

If your best girl friend is to be mar.
ried, and you know that she will re-
ceivc quantities Of silver and cut
glass, why not givssher some hand.
some and dainty piece OF underwear
that she cannot duplicate In the
shops?
A petticoat, for instance. made OF
fine cambria and net, with lace and
ribbon trimmings makes a particular
iy acceptable gifts J
Make the foundation OF cambria cut
over a seven.gored pattern. fitting the
hips closely and closing with a habit
back. The length should be three
inches from heFfloor, or exactly to
the ankles.
Finish the cambria foundation with
a rufflc of net.edged lace.
Make three wide Spanish rulfles OF
net trimmed with lace insertion. and
edged with good. strong lace, and put
these on the foundation one above the
other. joining the top one with a two
inch band OF lace beading, and insert
a piece OF soft ribbon through this'
ending with bow at the left side.
These lace petticoats are much
smarter TO wear with evening gowns
than silk or satin, and being made OF
soft materials. cling as closely TO the
figure as the finest messaline.
Even II the bride.to.be goes into So
cicty only occasionally, she will be
delighted with a really elegant under
skirt OF this description.

This slogan has been made famous
by the National Consumers league
which, actuated by humanitarian reas-
ons, has fought to modify the unneces-
sary hardships incident to Christmas
shopping. For two weeks before
Christnas most department stores do
q capacity business, and the pressure
is intensified at every point. Authen-
tic records from the lives Of clerks.
delivery boys and wagon drivers show
that as a result the season OF Christ
mas festival and of charity for the
lame. the halt, and the blind. reduces
to illness and exhaustion the young
and faithful who serve us, seen and
unseen.
Though there is growing apprecia-
ton of the personal advantages in
buying in comfort from full stocks be-
fore the best goods have been snapped
up by the early birds, millions of peo-
ple with the best intention in the
world buy their presents late. Our
readers can help not only by good ex-
ample but by the timely hint, in the
words Of the prime advertiser, that
"this means you.'' Articles, cartoons,
advertisements. and street banners
have been used to induce shoppers to
act. but the most effective appeal is

a very clever young woman whose
finances were suddenly reduced to the
lowest terms tells how she planned =.
"cheesecloth'' Christmas for MANY Of
her friends. She made busters for
housekeepers. prettily feather stitch
ing them with different colored silks
and wash cottons. BY stitching sev-
eral thicknesses together she made
serviceable and sanitary dish cloths.
Then there were useful covers for
trunk trays (she first took the precas1-
tion to get the sizes). Pads for dresser
and chiffonier drawers she made with
one layer Of cotton between, delicately
scenting with violet sachet powder.
For the new babies she did the most
fascinating coverlets. lining them with
pink and blue worgted and buttonhol-
Ing around the edges. For bride 20
ing to housekeeping in a modest little
home, she procured the measurements
OF the basement windows ana built
curtains of crepe cheesecIoth with o.
deep hem at the bottom. Cheesecloth
laundry bags lined with a c0Iored CAM
brio are acceptable, also bags for
string. Taking 1t as whole. she says
her Christmas that year was a great
success. CheeseclotIi makes excellent
curtains Tor servants rooms and al
projectors Tor party gowns on the back

CHICAGO Gossip.

Chicago Dec. 13.--Corn specialists
said that local bulls had bought at the
top to replace recently sold out lines.
That the pit shorts had covered and
that the disposition was to scalp on
the bull side for the time being. Prices
at the top yesterday were up 1c from
the low point of the previous day. One
of the largest of the pit traders who
bought 100000 bushels May from CSC
up to 631z cents said he secured 80
per cent of it from commission houses
at 63K and above while at 6S cents
part of it came from pit traders. A
cash handler in discussing the market
last night said export bids were close
toi'the market, that outside points had
been filled up and that the only call
was for quick shipment but there is
no ocean room available before the
middle of January. 1t was the general
remark last night that the farmer is
in a position to dictate prices for corn
during the winter and spring.

SISTER AND FAMILY
WERE ABOARD.

Gibarlter, Dec. 1S.-Several members
Of the British royalty, including King
Georges sister the Princess Louise,
with her husband, the Duke OF Fife,
and their daughters, were placed in
jeopardy today owing to the strand
ing of the liner Delhi off Cape SpretzeI,
Morocco.
Immediately after the news was re-
ceived here that the vessel had gone
ashore all the available tugs and sew
eral war vessels were despatched at
full speed to the scene Life saving
apparatus was also sent both yland
and sea.
A storm was raging and it was diff
cult for the rescuers to get close to
the Delhi, but the assistance from the
French cruiser, sent by the Frnech
naval authorities from Tangier, the
women and hildren were taken off
and landed.
The princess and her daughters were
among the rescued and they are now
on their way to Gibralter aboard a
warsl1ip. The Duke of Fife remained
aboard.
