COULD TAKE OUT THE KNOT
Boy Scout Had Done His Daily Good
Turn and Reminder Was No
Longer Necessary.

The man with shiny new motor car
stood beside 1t with a perplexed look
on his face. His hat and hair, and
apparently his temper, were slightly
ruffled.
Can help you in any way?"
1t was boy scout who spoke, and
not large one at that, but he looked
eager and he spoke confidently.
DO you know anything about that
thing?" asked the man, showing his
foot out at the car.
Il have motor car merit badge,
said the scout, with quiet assurance.
We'll, IL you can make it go you
are good one" snorted the owner.
Together they went at the problem
and In few minutes the scout had
discovered the trouble and the engine
purred again as sweetly as ever.
Il certainly am obliged to you,
sonny" said the owner as he fished a
half dollar out Of his pocket
"Oh, no, | can't take anything for
doing that" the boy explained, that
was my daily good turn"
We'll, 1t certainly was good turn,
but wish you would accept some
thing for doing It, Jump In and will
take you wherever you want to CO."
Thank you, but was Just going
across the street there"
You are bound not to let me do
you a good turn. aren't you?" laughed
the man, but will get the start OF
you yet. Your tie has a knot in the
end Of It."
"Oh, yes, now can take 1t out" the
scout replied. you see, every morn
Ing I tie knot in II to remind me to
DO a good turn that day, and when
have done 1t take the knot out That
Is what the manual tells US to do"

USEFUL FOR PROTECTION OF
FOOD IN HOT WEATHER.
Best Material for the Purpose IS o.
Fine Mesh With a aorder o.
Heavy Beads That VIII Keep
II From Blowing on

A thin cover is necessary for cover
ing over basins, jugs, or any article
containing food and liquid during the
summer time.
The cover should be such as to ad-
nit the air, yet it must keep out hieS'
dust, or any other foreign matter
The best material for this purpose
is fine muslin it can be bought very
cheaply, and several covers can DO
made from half yard.
Round shapes are easily obtained
by turning a basin upside-down on
the muslin and marking round II Win
pencil; different sizes will be needed.
and different articles can be used 10
mark out with, such as cups, glasses,
etc.
Hem round the circle neatly, then
it will need the border OF beads as
indicated in the sketch. This border
is essential, otherwise, the covers
would not stay on the different YES
sells, they easily blow off, the beads
act as weights, and as they are equal
ly distributed all round the muslin,
it is kept exactly in place.
When the circle has been hemmed
round, take some very coarse crochet
cotton; commence on the border by
making three buttonhole stitches.
Now thread on one, two or three
beads, allow about an inch and half
of cotton to hang loose, and go into
the edge OF the cover again with three
buttonhole stitches, then thread more
beads and proceed all the way round.
The beads should be rather large
and of the heavy variety, those sold
In links do splendidly; the links cost
very little and contain a good num-
Der; all kinds of pretty coors can be
had.
These covers are most useful for
covering over milk jugs, basins, unset
jellies, glasses Of lemonade, etc, etc.
In the sick room they are very handy,

SHAPED MUSLIN COVER IN BLACK AND WHITE
COSTUMES OF THOSE colORS
RETAIN POPULARITY.
Are Easily the Predcminatlng Notes
at fashionable Gatherinss-Hats,
sunehades and Footsear Also
Of Contrasting Shades.

The union of black and white is GER
tainly a marriage de raison," for 1t Is
both nractical and distinguished and
the fashion has lasted SO long that
every one is astonished at so much
constancy in the realm Of fashion,
which is always full of fantasy and
eager for novelty and change.
Black and white are the tones most
in vogue for elegant toilets. Smart
women of the world are bound to have
white costumes, black costumes and
costumes in which both intermingle.
Here and there brighter note Is seen.
Sashes, coates, hats and sunshades
are often of gay colors, but the pre-
dominating notes at all fashionable
gatherings are undoubtedly black and
white.
When cleverly and artistically COM
biued. even stmnle black and white
costumes, like tie one Of today's
ST. gten. become most interesting
The material here was crepon, and
was called casino frock by the house
that turned it out.
The blouse and tunic were in white,
with black stencil design bordering
the sleeve seams and the hem Of the
tunic. A wide collar Of fine white
batiste turned away from the neck,
and the blouse fronts and sleeve ends
had a pretty trimming of crocheted
ball.buttons hung on cords. Another
unusual note was the way in which the
black satin girdle was run through
eye.ets in a succession Of oval-shaped
pieces of white crepon that formed a
belt.
The skirt was of black crepon and
quite plainly made.
The symphony of black and white Is
equally marked in regard to hats. Dia-
dems of black chantilly, aureolas Of
white tulle or net, mingle to form the
