VALUABLE HINT ON SEWING
Little Tip That Will Make Sewing Of
Lace Around Circular Piece of
Cloth Easy.

For sewing lace around circular
piece Of cloth. some preparation OF
the lace is necessary. Here is one
woman's way: Roll the lace into a
tight roll and sew down the end with
few basting threads Stand the roll
In shallow dish of warm water just
dep enough to cover the edge that is
to be sewed on the goods; let it stand
in the water three or four minutes;
II left too long the water will soak
up and wet the whole ROLL which is
not desired. When the edge for half
an inch or SO Ton wide lace) or as
deep as desired is wen wet. take out
of the water and leave in the roll un-
til thoroughly dry. When it Is dry
and unrolled the edge which was in
the water will have shrunk so the
lace will curve around and lend itself
readily to the round edge of the
goods. requiring no fulling on. as
otherwise would have to be done.

Economical SUGGESTIONS.

The best and simplest way OF test.
ing silk is to cut off a small piece OF
the silk and burn 1t. If it burns out
quickly, leaving a cleaf, crisp. gray
ash, the silk is pure; but if it smoul-
ders and leaves a heavy reddish brown
ash it has been treated with chemicals
and will not wear well.
II piece of elastic is used to lace
up the back Of the corsets. instead OF
the ordinary lace, wearers will find
great ease, as the elastic expands
freely with every movement of the
body, giving greater comfort. also
making them wear much longer
When dark serge suit or dress
has become shiny looking with wear
sponge it with hot vinegar and press
it in the usual way. No odor of vine
gar will remain. the shine will disap-
pear and the articles will be much
improved in appearance. The vine
gar will leave no stain.

TRAFFIC
On B. Z 0. Established In
Both Directions
Trains. Nov Running Nearly
On Schedule Time

The Baltimore & Ohio railroad Is
now open in both directions and pas.
sengers can travel from Chicago, ILL.,,
to Washington, d. C. The only break
In the traffic that now exists Is at
GAINESVILLE where passengers have
only to cross the river by bridge, or
boat and climb onto a waiting train
on the other side that will take them
directly to their destination without
further inconvenience.
The first train to arrive In Mt. Yer.
non from any point west of Butler
was train No. IA from Chicago which
Is due In Mt. Vernon at 7:10 a. m.
The train was trifle late owing to
the necessity of slow running over the
newly constructed r0ad-bed at various
points where wash-outs occurred
along the line but It met with no mis-
hap while making the trip from Chi.
cago to Mt. Vernon.
Unless some unforeseen trouble aris.
es the full schedule of B. & o. trains
will be run daily from this time on.
Baggage will be transferred by the
raidroad company at GAINESVILLE, but
the passengers will be required to
make the transfer without assistance
from the company. This will be easy
enough, however, as thsre is both
bridge and boat accommodations
handy.
