CretonneS are SO attractive tnat tney
have inspired much designing of ar
ticles for personal use and house dec
Grafton. Recently linen crash and
fowered cretonnes have become more
popular than any other fabrics for
tasteful and inexpensive fittings and
furnishing. Certain patterns have
been featured for living rooms and
porches, but it is in bedroom furnish
ings that they take precedence OF ev-
erything else. They are bright and
dainty and better still. they are wash
able. Crashes are embroidered in
fast color embroidery silks or deco
rated with cut figures of cretonne ap-
piled and button-hole stitched down.
There is a long list of attractive
things which are made of these dura-
BILE fabrics. Among them the dressing
case sets, which cannot fail to please,
are among the least costly and most
effective of Christmas gifts. They are
acceptable to either men or women
friends.
The Powered cretonnes are used for
covering boxes made to hold handker-
chiefs, gloves, neckwear. cravats and
wells, and the large boxes for hats
and shirtwaists. They are fine for
laundry bags. shoe and slipper bags.
pin cushions and pin trays. tea trays
and tea cosies. Dresser scarfs are
made of plain fabric bordered with
cretonne. Picture frames are covered
with 1t and the cut-out figures are ap-
piled to candle shades. Cushions for
chairs help carry out the scheme for
cretonne decorations.
In the picture are three candle
shades, fine tray and frame for
photographs. They are made of Gre
tonne or of linen. A set made up of
the tray and frame and one or two
candle shades all matching ought to
rejoice the heart of any one who ap-
preciates a pretty dressing case. They
are all very easily made.
To make the pin tray a small oval
frame with glass and back is needed.
Plenty of these are to be found at
the ten cent stores framing pictures
which 1t is a decided satisfaction to
take out and destroy. After cleaning
the glass a stiff cardboard is to be cut
out Cusing the glass as guide) into
backing for a cretonne covering.
Paste the cretonne to this backing
smoothly or allow a half inch around
the edge and fasten the cretonne with
stitches drawn across the back of the
cardboard. Slip the covered form in
to the frame under the glass and re-
place the back. Paste a piece Of plain
paper or felt over the bottom of the
tray.
The photo frame is made Of heavy
cardboard 91s inches long and 5h
inches high. The oval openings are a
trife over 3 inches high and 2 inches
broad. The cretonne is cut allowing
inch to turn over the edge all around
and Y inch about the oval openings.
1t must be slashed at the openings to
make 1t fit and is pasted or glued
down about the ovals first. The card
board is then mounted to four strips
of cardboard Gas heavy as corrugated
board) which extend all round the
edge of the frame at the back. These |
strips are glued to the frame. The |
inch allowance in the material is |
brought over the edge of the frame |
and glued down. A narrow strip of |
glass is laid against the oval open |
ings at the back and fastened by |
means of strips of paper pasted over it |
and to the back of the frame. Finally |

acres of government land homestead
cd in one year is the phenomenal rec.
ord made by Rio Blanco county this
year. The greater part of this terri

there yet remains about 10000 acres
OF land in this section which can be
hOmesteaded. A large part of this is

that is included is especially good and

Lost Trousers Playing Poker.

Wuham Verne appeared in Detroit
pokce coudt attired in a dress coat
and some underwear-he had bet the
trousers in poker game the evening
before and lost. His cash, his watch
and his diamonds preceded the trou-
sers into the bank" The trousers
were of good quality, SO William bet
several blue chips on them. But his
luck didn't turn and when he was
cleaned out again he broke up the
game by quitting. He begged the loan
of the trousers to go home in, but
the bank took no risks and declined.
So william started in dress coat and
underwear and was arrested.

backing or thin cardboard Is pasted
to the frame across the top and
sides. leaving the bottom open for
slipping in the pictures. A small wire
ring is fastened in for a hanger or an
easel support glued to the back by
means of a cloth hinge.
The tallest of the three candles has
a shade made of stiff pink linen
fabric and decorated with garlands
and figure cut from the cretonne
pasted down. 1t is finished with q
narrow silk fringe. A pair of candles
with candle-sticks fitted with shades
and holders make a gift that everyone
enjoys. Glass or silver candle-stlcks
are best for bedrooms. Brass and iron
ones are appropriate for living
rooms. The plain iron candle-stick
with rose-colored candle and huted
rose-colored shade is suited to a mans
room.
The shade is made of smooth linen
starched and fluted on an iron. 1t is
pasted on a cardboard ring at the top
and finished with piece of fancy
rose-colored braid.
The dainty figured shade shown
with the silver candle-stick is pure
white with a tiny flower wreath.
There is a lace edge about the top
| and bottom. It is made of linen evil
IDENTIFY woven for the purpose, stiffen-
ed and fiuted. 1t is mounted to a card.
board ring and finished about the top
with white braid.
One of the easiest ways to shade a
candle as well as one of the prettiest,
is to cut disk of cardboard about
inches in diameter, with a circle cut
out Of the center to fit over the can
die holder. Cover this with square
of cretonne edged with bead fringe,
cut the cretonne seven inches square
allowing an extra half inch for a mar
row hem. Hem the hem and sew
the fringe over it. Cut an opening
from the center to fit over the candle
holder and allow a half inch hem also.
The pretty handkerchief case of crash
shown in Fig. hardly needs descrip
ton. 1t is embroidered with small
pink roses. green leaves and a ribbon
design in light blue. 1t is lined with
pink wash silk. button-hole stitched
about the edge and tied with wash
ribbons. One corner is turned back.
This is a gift which a man will appre-
ciate.
The bag in Fig. 2 may be made eth
er of cretonne or fiowered silk. The
handles are made of embroidery rings
wound with narrow blue ribbon. The
upper part of the bag is gathered over
one-half Of each ring and the fulness
at the ends is also gathered into small
rings having one and a half inch diam
eter. Little ribbon bows, matching
the handles. provide the finishing
touch.
double bag of linen ornamented
with embroidery. serves as re-
ceptacle for soiled handkerchiefs, or
other small accessories. 1t is wash
able and will last long time. Men
as well as women like these handy
bags. This is true of the little COM
tonne, crash or silk, with pinked fan
mel leaves for the needles and ribbons
for hanging.
Where one does not embroider a
very pretty substitute is possible with
cut out cretonne flowers applied to
linen and stitched down with button
hole or chain stitch. There is no end
to the more than good looking pres
ents which are made of cretonne and
crash.
