How to Hang Pictures

Pictures are hung preferably nova
days without long pi ces Of wire
dropped from moulding, except in the
case of extra large and heavy ones.
They should be hung fat against the
wall and small pins or hooks that hold
firmly and do.not mar the wall, may be

with at the moment. These take unto
account every sort of gown from the
crisp linen suit for the morning stroll,
bathing outfits, sports toggery, to
filmy laces, nets and silks for the cere-
moniOus evening occasions.
For those who are about to plan
spring and summer clothes which can
be had for moderate cost, the simpler
types of gowns and blouses are espe-
cially interesting. Already, the new
note is sounded in rough weaves of cot
tons and linens, almost as beautiful as
the silk and wooden materials which
they resemble. Fabrics like velvet,
known as uncut frisette, cotton velour,

either ribbed or plain; and cotton du-
vetyn are attracting attention for two
piece suits and dresses. On the left of
this page is a jaunty spring suit of
brown wide wall ribbed cotton velour.
This model (coat ZIG, skirt ~ n
S03S) has a straight cutaway
jacket, loose fitting, and quite
plain except for the straps of <
velvet trimming the front; and
a wide belt of velvet with fringe q
on the ends. The skirt, in misses
sizes from IA to 10 years, can be cut
from a single breadth of 54-inch mate
rial. The price ranges from $1.S5 per
yard up to 81.
Designed to wear with this suit is the
dainty bodice of ecru net (79O9) with
strips of the suit material making the
effective trimming on the sleeves and
their full ruffles. A sash of salmon
pink satin is tied in a bow at the front.
The collar is a dainty combination of
batiste and Valenciennes lace.
Rose pink and white crinkled cotton
is the inexpensive wash goods of which
the coat suit in the middle of the page
is made, (coat 1910, skirt 7911). The
trimming is q six-inch band of rose
linen with a line of hemstitching near
either edge. The fulness of the coat
blouse is held in by the band which has
the latest upward direction. This suit
can be duplicated in the same material
for IS, or at the same price in ratine,
linen or tafeta.
There is continued use of brocaded
and broch6 designs in cotton and light
weight wooden materials for warm
weather wear; and one such dress
varies the monotony of all plain dresses,
and adds what is very novel. A deep
old rose brocaded poplin is the material
of the model on the left lower side of
the page (S045) chosen as an instance
of the one-piece gown which is very
easy to make. This closes at the back,
and has a crush girdle of velvet pass
ing through slashes at the waistline.
The border is a band of white satin
with soutache braid in a design which
can be reproduced with pattern 1922.
Each number of the patterns mentioned
above is Is cents.

tho European countries find in the
war an insurmountable oostacle to
trade, and Germany, because of her
location, is almost completely iso-
lated from the rest Of the world.
Since many of the things Germany
and the rest of Europe sold to South
America are manufactured in this
country, this circumstance ought to
&c long way in sowing the diff
Guilty of establishing intimate trade
relations with the countries south
of US.
If the South American prefers
that our goods should carry label
written in German or French in pref
erence to one in English, no serious
obstacle is presented. A campaign
against his preferences in languages
is not contemplated. 1t is only neces-
sary to send him implements and
materials as good or better than he
mas been in the habit of buying for
the same money. This is essential
to any permanent trade relations

ing American merchants that many
things heretofore imported from
abroad are manufactured Just as
well in this country. Toys are given
as q conspicuous example. Some en-
terprising Germans skilled in toy
manufacturing, having years ago
started a factory in Philadelphia,
found there was no market for their
goods until the labels were printed in
the German language. Then they

does not want CarranZa to be Presi-

that Carranza shall submit his can
Cidacy to the people in the regular
way.
Villa is a soldier, and he doesn't
want a soldier for head Of the ma

same ground that he declines to yield
to any ambition for himself. He be-
lieves that Mexico has need for the
BEST that it can produce in states

must be subordinated to the civil.
