MAKES HANDY SPOOL RACK
Excellent Idea for Woman Who Has
Much Sewing to Do and Little
Time to Do II.

Take a smooth pine board about an
inch thick and about nine or ten
inches square. cover with cretonne,
plush, felt or any desired material.
From the under side of board drive
through wire nails two and one-half
inches in length ard about two inches
apart. Make hole with gimlet part
way through, as then board will be
less likely to split when nails are be.
ing driven through. Place spools on
nails, number side up. A thread can
be easily cut from spool without re-
moving it from rack and one is saved
the bother of having ones thread in
a tangle.
If you wish to take your work to
the piazza or another room you have
all the different sizes. colors, silks
basting and dSrning cottons with you
in this rack

cream. pink. white or red In color;
this will, of course. depend upon the
gown that the sash is to adorn. They
are worked as follows:
Begin in the center of the rose;
make few satin stitches, then make
several back stitches; let the stitches
be Of unequal length and put them
closely together to get the effect of
folded-over petals. Now work this
center with a row Of larger stitches;
these can be in lighter shade of the
color used for the roses. An outer
row is added: these loops or stitches
should be made little tighter than
the others. as they serve to draw the
rose together. as 1t were.
Let the center OF the rose be the
deepest in tint and the outside the
palest.
The bow Of ribbon is simply worked
with satin stitch; the bow may be Of
any color to tone with the general
color scheme or it may be worked
with the same shade of green as the
stalks and leaves. The stalk can be
worked with crewel stitch. and the
leaves in satin stitch. The sprays
are easily and quickly worked and are
we'll worth while the doing; it is
much more economical to do this en-
broidery at home for even IL the
gown has to be sent out to be made
the cost Of hand embroidery has been
saved. The necessary silks for the
work can be bought at most fancy
shops and there also the transfers are
to be had

UTILIZING Lace ShaWls.

Those who possess old style shawls
Of chantilly, Spanish. burgess or italian
iaces may renew them with an ego
toward their ultimate usage for this
winters donning. Laces of this de-
scription and shape may be fashioned
into wonderfully effective capes for
this winters wear and without cutting
or defacing their delicate threads or
altering them in any way. They should
be mounted on mousseline, chiffon and
satin lining and may be affixed to
handsome collars of brilliant hued vel
vets or be decorated with furs.

where mink skins encircle it. The
narrow scarf is of the seal with mink
skin decoration. Hudson seal, in
broader scarfs and palmer muffs, Is
shown having fitch skins posed In
bands on it. and this combination has
proved very successful.
The vogue for monkey fur ID con-
spicuous. Odd. closefltting collars
Of the long hair. and round muffs, are
the most pleasing models in this long,
silky fur. Collars are high and some.
times fastened with a metal rose.
Small, swagger waistcoats of velvet
support wide collars Of the soft, long
haired furs, like fox, and are some
thing very new. Little vestees Of bril-
liant brocade or cloth of gold or silver
are set In these waistcoats. and the
combination Of velvet, brocade and
luxurious furs Is irresistible. Long,
| soft muffs of velvet with ruffles at
each end are banded with a broad
band Of fur at the middle and mar
rover bands where the ruffles are
gathered in at each end. These muffs
look generously warm, reaching up to
the elbows when the hands are in.
These are only few of the many
shapes and combinations to be found
in fur sets. But they serve to show
that it Is allowable to "go as 20,
please" and as far as you like in the
selection Of odd creations in necl
pieces and NUTS.

was begun on behalf of the Progress
sives of the house by the Introduction
of resolutions by Representative Hine-
baugh of Illinois. The first resolution
calls upon the interstate commerce
commission to report to the house
upon the interlocking stock control of
the New York Central over the Michi-
gan Central Railroad company and
the Lake Shore and Michigan South
ern company and the influence of this
control upon railroad cost, service and

"interlocking stock control confers all
the powers which actually come from
interlocking directorships. Under the
present system there is no honest
competition between parallel railroad
lines. The only purposes of legisla-
ton against interlocking directorates
