French Knots.

French knots are quite taking the
place of the fashionable beading. The
latest thing is to buy a wolfe or mar
auisette blouse pattern marked for
beading and to make French knot In
stead at each place for a bead. The
effect is soft and extremely pleasing
Most of US know how to make
French knots, but instructions as to
the others may not come amiss. Brief
". they are as follows:
To make French knot, draw the
needle through the upper side OF the
fabric. Hold 1t in the right hand and
with the left hand take hold OF the
silk at point near the fabric and
twist 1t two or three times around
the needle. Then put the point OF
the needle through the fabric again,
very close to the point at which You
brought it up; draw the twisted silk
closely around 1t and push the needle
through, Hold the twist tight against
the goods with your left hand While
you draw teh length of silk through
so as,to keep it from uncoillng. When
the silk has been dawn quite through
1t holds the knot.

The state bali IN LONDON brought
out many brilliant fashions, Few OF
the women wore full skirts. Not
withstanding the unwritten notice
given by Queen Mary that tight skirts
would NOT be approved by heG they
were there by the hundred. No wo-
men Of fashion took any notice Of the
Injunction, and the only ones who fol
lowed the full skirts Of the Queen
were the royal ladies.
BY the way, her Injunction against
large hats has also been received In
the same manner, and the interesting
feature of the affair was that the Ger
man Empress, who was a royal guest
had nothing hut large hats made IN
the latest French manner by French
milliners.
One OF the new fashions was in the
manner Of wearing a string OF pearls

Another way of arranging them was

A suggestion for camp refrigera'

These hampers are TO be had in all

Reviving Missouri Racing.
The effort to revive the ancient and

The effort to revive the ancient and
honorable sport of horse racing in
this state deserves to succeed only if
the elements and association which
caused the ban to be placed upon it in
the first place are wholly eliminated.
There is no good reason why there
should not be trials of speed between
horses, but the old days of gambling
and other demoralizing concomitants
of horse racing have gone and gone
forever. This fact must be borne in
mind by those who are behind the
movement to put the horse back upon
the sport map. It is curious that a
sport which ought to be the sleanest
and most dignified in the whole cata-
CORY should have sunk into such dis
repute that it occupies legal position
very nearly like that of faro, poker,
pugilism a nd other disreputable
games and sports that have been
banished from most civilized commu-
mites. C. Journal.
