Chicago.-Theodore Roosevelt was
nominated for president on an indie
pendent ticket. The nomination was
made during the dying hours of the
republican national convention IN
which Mr. Roosevelt met defeat.
The followers of Colonel Roosevelt
met In Orchestra Hall, less than a
mile from the Coliseum, and pledged
their support to the ex-president.
Colonel Roosevelt said he accepted
the nomination with the understand
Ing that he would be willing to step
aside if it should be the desire of the

COQuettish Bands With JeweIed
Slides and Ribbon Flowers.

With the fashions which were Dor
empire and directoire periods comes
the neckband of black velvet.
These narrow collars. worn just be
low the chin, give certain cOQuettish
charm to the face not to be denied.
The fair danes of those other years
wore these bands perfectly plain
Those worn at present have jeweled
slides or are adorned with tiny flowers
fashioned of ribbon.
There is a great art in deity fash
ioning these flowers. and the clever
girl who does them we'll should con,
graduate herself.
First cut band of black velvet to
fit the neck of the wearer. Next sew
on q black clasp fastener
The band is then folded in half and
a pin placed to mark the center
Tiny scraps Of green satin are ar
ranged to form leaves
To fashion a rose take a piece Of
pink satin or ribbon an inch wide and
four inches long. Fold through the
center gathering thread Is run
along the salvage and the petals Of the
rose arranged.
Three of these miniature roses are
sufficient to trim neckband When
the design ia too large the contour Of
the neck is spoiled.
Violets. daisies. forgetmenots and

Tiny rosettes of scarlet ribbon are
effective when combined with foliage
There are many other ideas for pref
