FLowFREn SHOES
FOR THE BoUDoIR

A pretty little gift can be made at
small expense by making a pair OF bed
room slippers OF print ribbon. Get one
yard and a half OF ribbon four inches
wide, and one and one-haf of number
two, .three-eights OF number seven, and
three-quarters of a yard of number
twenty-five. Also get a pair of soles
the size required. Cover the wool side
with the number twenty-five ribbon by
neatly slip-stitching II over the wool
This will make the satin lining. Cut on
two inches of print ribbon at the back
to make it narrow for the heel, but
graduate it to the full width across the
front of the sole. Then overland the
ribbon around each sole by sewing II
on the wrong side. Start to sew II on
the front. and sew in a piece of the plain
ribbon number seven to make neat
finish. Extend this above the other rib
bon and make II the shape Of tongue
This will give you the plain tongue.
Stitch your number two ribbon around
the top of the edge of the print fiat This
will make the casing to insert elastic
drawn to ft the foot. Featherstitch
around the base of plain color and
around the plain color at the toe. To
make this of white ground ribbon with
pink roses and to finish of with light
blue makes a pretty effect in the eolors
that women most favor.

About the edges OF the two oblongs thus

In the Nursery.

II does not mean that a woman can
not take charge of her own children S
bringing up simply because she puts
them in nursery. She can take care
OF them as well In nursery as out OF
one. IL they are in charge of a COVER
ness, however. she should be a woman
who can be thoroughly trusted. In these
days of mothers helpers the young
woman who fills that position would
have the supervision of the nursery in
house where she was employed, and
she should be chosen with the greatest
care. For the whole value of the nursery
idea is that the children who are brought
up in nursery lead a quieter. more un-
trammeled life than they do when they
live out of the nursery.

Swift and Awful Disaster.
The Weehawkens captain. Commando
J. NJ. Duncan, was on board the flagship,
in conference with Admiral Dahlgren.
when an officer reported that the Wee

assistance"
Commander Duncan, who had been pro-
NOTED to command of the Weehawken
only the day before. rushed on deck and
to a boat. Before he could get away
from the flagship the Weehawken was
seen to roll slightly to one side, settle by
| the bow. and disappear beneath the
tumbling seas
Boats from other ships in the fleet pro-
ceeded as rapidly as was possible in the
heavy sea to the rescue of men from the
monitor seen struggling in the water.
The survivors had a story of swift and
awful disaster to tell.
When the water began TO pour aft the
instinct of every man on board was to
rush to the only opening by which 1t was
, possible to escape. This was a narrow
hatch in the top of the turret.
Men trampled on each other to get out
of this small opening Some yelled in
terror as the water rose toward it, Others
were calm. and without fear went back
to get their effects.

irons. rushed to aid them Before he
could unlock their fetters the water was
upon him. He reached the hatch and
was pulled out of it: but the experience
OF the last few minutes in the doomed
ship had so wrought upon him that he
collapsed. In few minutes he died in
convulsions.
A hospital steward who went to aid the
sick died with them.
The rescued were taken to various
ships. Owing TO the gale it was a day
before they could be assembled and the
roll Of survivors was called. 1t was then
found that four engineers. who had been
in the engine room and knew nothing of
the disaster until too late. and twenty-six
men had perished.
