DAlNTIES FROM SCRAPS
MANY PRETTY THINGS MADE
FROM ODDS AND ENDS.
Any Pieces Of Lace, However Small,
Can by SkiIIfuI Fingers Be
Turned Into Articles of
Beauty.

Every well ordered house has at
least one bag for the reception of odds
and ends. The stores are now full of
beautiful remnants Of all sorts and
lengths of lace, and many dainty and
useful articles may be made from
them. 1t takes only a little thought
and ingenuity to see what the newest
touches are in neckwear and fancy
articles to be able to cOnCOCt many
pretty things from odds and ends Of
lace and embroidery. If you happen
to have some bits of real or good imi-
tatiOn lace in your possession every
scrap, however much it may be torn,
may be used to good advantage if
mended first by being transferred
neatly on to the finest net and sewed
to this through paper, afterward tear
ing the paper away. Any pieces, how
ever small, can by skillful fingers be
turned into articles of beauty.
Delightful caps for babies may be
fashioned from unprized trifes in the
way of muslin and lace scraps. No
II looking at them when completed
could believe they were ever any
thing but one uniform whole. Also
the little fanCiful theater and boudoir
caps and other headdresses worn by
girls at present may be made in the
same way with the addition of ribbon
trimmings.
Artistic little candle shades and
shades for electric light bulbs are also
most successfully made Of pieces of
lace lined with a color.
There is no end of ways in which
these odds and ends may be used on
collars, cuffs. jabots and other acces-
sories of dress. Tiny picot edgings
or footings, sewed to lace, often make
a great difference, not only in ap-
pearance, but in durability and
strength. Exquisite collar and cuffs
sets, pocketbooks, belts, work bags,
sachets, cushion covers and other
things made Of bold openwork design

LATEST FANCY IN KIMONOS
slouses Made of EyeIet Embroidery,
Thin or Thick, as May Be
Desired.

Among the new fancies Of the lin
gerie people are kimono bIouses made
of eyelet embroidery, thin or thick.
The design is not very open and the
blouse is cut in the well-known jum-
per shape. 1t can be worn over an
other kimono blouse of china silk,
white or colored, or it can be worn
merely over a dainty corset cover run
through with pink ribbon.
1t should have a guimpe of net or
lace, as the sleeves are rather wide
and somewhat short and expose too
much of of the arm for any occasion
except house wear. AS it Is quite the
fashion to wear fiesh-colored slips I'M
der ones blouses the idea may be ar.
ried out with artistic result under
these eyelet kimonos.
One should finish the elbow sleeves
of the under slip with a three.inch
hem of net, plain or dotted, or an
equally wide band Of lace.

In the storm and snow, and left to plod
on until they fell and slept, and froze,
and died, they would perhaps get
away.
More experienced than the boy, all
these possibilities were present to her.
She did not pray, she could ask moth
ing of God; but she went warily and
carefully, helping the horse where she
could.
AS for her companion, he did not
give these matters very much consid-
Grafton. He kept going toward the
south to the railroad station because
that was the only thing to be done.
Another, however. rode with him, IL
not with her. Before his eyes was
ever present that CORY, grizzly spec
tacle of a human form, the red blood
yelling from its breast, redder still
from the white snow with which he
was surrounded. That awful figure
beckoned him on. He was younger,
finer, better, than she. He was more
fool than knave; she was all knave.
Her thoughts went forward to what
was before her; but his went back
ward to what was behind.
After a long time 1t seemed to them
that the fierceness of the storm was
somewhat abated. The wind was GER

was more difficult every for
that cause. Their very souls were
numb with the awful cold. Still they
went forward. slower now, and more
slowly ever,
How far they had come, what time
1t was, where they were, neither he
nor she could tell. 1t seemed to them
both that they had been hours on the
way. The woman was sure that they
must have comprised the greate< part
OF the journey, when her horse sud
denly stumbled and fell. Her bron-
cho's matchless endurance had az last
been exhausted by the terrible strug-
gle of their journey. He lay dying
where he fell, and nothing she could
do could get him up again. The boy
had stopped, OF course, when her horse
had fallen. He had dismounted and
helped her to rise. He had assisted
her vain efforts to get her own played
out horse on its feet. The two now
stood staring at each other in dlsmay

The woman's first thought n she
stepped outside the door was that at
all hazards they must go back. The
wind almost swept her away; only the
%steadying grasp of the boy, better pre-
pared than she for the attack of the
storm. enabled her to keep her feet.
Yet the presence of that CHASTITY thing

her iron nerve, prevented their return
