Linen Tape Popular Trimming

kindergarten cloth, 30 inches wide
and % cents yard is lighter than ga
latea and makes stunning MILDLY suits
for grown-ups as well as children. A
nice serge 80 inches wide can be had
for 81 a yard; galatea 20 inches for
II cents; English drill, SO inches, for
10 cents; and khaki, % inches, for %
cents.
For trimmings mercerized ribbed
braid at about cents yard is much
used, but cheaper and oven more pop
ular is the linen tape bought by the
bolt and costing from to 10 cents,
according to width with about 512
yards to the bolt For the wool sail
or a silk braid Is suitable, costing
from to II cents yard though the
white linen tape is frequently used.
The favOrite widths are a quarter or
three-eighths of an inch for cotton or
linen braids; the silk is used up to
hree-duarters of an inch in width.
If you wish a real navy blouse you
will choose dark navy blue flannel or
bleached cotton drill, trimming the
flannel blouses with white linen tape
while the cotton blouses have sailor
collar and cuffs of dark blue flannel
trimmed with the linen tape. Few
girls and fewer mothers stick to these
ironclad rules, but freely adapt the
lines and marking to all materials.
While the regulation sailor blouse
with elastic run through the bottom
hem to draw it into an overhanging
blouse is always good, especially for
little children, the MILDLY blouse that

Canning Beets.

For canning select young, tender
beets. Cut off the tops about three
inches from the beet. Wash thor
oughly, put them in kettle and cover
with boiling water; cook until tender.
Peel, then cut them in quarters, slice
or can whole. Pack tightly in per-
fectly clean jars, cover with cold wa
ter, equal quantities of water and
vinegar, or water and vinegar and SUI
gar to taste. Be sure that lids and
rubbers fit tight. Put the covers on
tightly. arrange the jars on a rack
in a tightly covered kettle, pour in
cold water enough to come half way
up on the jars, place over the fire and
bring to the boiling point. Boil for
10 minutes, fssten the covers on
tightly and continue the boiling for 40
minutes. Set the jars aside until the
next day, then put them in the boiler
and boil for one hour, remove again,
and cook in the same way on the
third day.

hangs free and straight down is far
more popular In the same way the
one time essential plated skirt is not
seen half so often as the plain gath
cred or gored skirt.
Any undraped gored model, such as
is used for tennis skirts or linen suits,
is suitable with the MILDLY blouse. A
style that buttons all the way up the
front makes easy ironing for the
heavy cotton suitings. Make an inch
and a half facing, work buttonholes
through it, and set the buttons two
inches apart on the under side to cor
respond, the first just above the two
inch hem.
The regulation sailor blouse in wool
en- materials to blouse over belt is a
useful costume for the school girl; in
deed in many boarding schools it is
compulsory, so if your daughter in
tends to go away to school this next
fall write for full particulars as to
cut, material, and trimming, as many
schools, especially the most fashion
able ones, like all these suits of one
color and cut; in fact, a uniform.
For quite little children sew the
skirt-which is often plated in side
plaits from a front box plat, but is
more quickly made when gathered to
a sleeveless muslin body to which the
shield is sewed. For the summer
weight suits it is perhaps better to
sew the skirt in band, with button
holes to fasten to the under waist and
make the shield detachable.

PIuCking Flowers
By Omar w. Russell, Casnovia. Mich.

A mother was LIVING upon her coy
I'D, i'll from a fever that had been
aiding her down for many days. The
sunshine played in at the edges of the
window shades, which were down, so
as to make the light more smooth for
her eyes.
Being poor and living where they
had no yard, they had no flowers.
They had no kind friends to bring in
flowers to brighten those long dreary
hours that were binding her to her
bed.
If she had lain in death, flowers
would have surrounded her pale form,
but then they would have been useless
as her soul would have been futtering
amongst bounteous fiowery pastures.
In life and sickness she longed for
flowers to brighten her hours and to
bring memories of Gods greatness
everywhere.
Her little girl, who mad heard the
mothers call for flowers so often,
found one as she was coming from
school and what JOY one little flower
will do to one who is struggling to
Sise back in the great scope of life.
1t was only a little flower,
A growing in the vale;
But the good it could do.
Is a merry little tale.
1t made the vale merrier
By its presence there
1t glorified the wood,
By its beauty rare.
Then a little child plucked it,
And held it in it's grasp,
For a better ending;
No little flower could ask.

PATTERN EASY TO FOLLOW.

Most patterns for the MILDLY blouse
give two length sleeves, and shield
with high or square neck, some have
also an outside yoke facing which may
or may not be used at pleasure. The
regulation sailor skirt is likewise
given to gather or plat. These pat
terms are simple to follow. Take care
to mark all notches, to notice if seams
and hem are allowed, to put the pat
tern to the goods with the grain of
the material straight, and to haste
carefully. When several tailor suits
are to be made cut out and fit the
first one, rip, mark alterations, and
cut the rest from the changed pat
tern. This saves untold time in fit
ting.
All of these blouses are made to slip
over the head, so do not buy too small
a pattern, one a size larger than us
ually worn is safe.
The seams are finished with a flat
fell stitched quarter of an inch deep;
the SlttNeS, NllIOul lulIleSS dl lODs
are set in same way and the bottom
finished with an inch to an inch and
a half hem. The side seams are slit
five inches from the bottom and hem
med back with narrow hem at each
side of these slashes. Sometimes eye
lets may be worked for lacers of white
or colored cotton cord or linen tape,
to match those on front of blouse if it
is laced below point of collar.
The bottom Of the MILDLY sleeve is
usually gathered into two and half
inch band to match cuff and belt when
one is worn. Set two buttons an inch
in from the edge and fasten cord
loops to the other edge, or the cuff
may be fastened with buttons and but
tonholes. This is set in before the
cuff its stitched. Slash up the seam Of
the sleeve two inches and stitch the
seam at the openings with the extern
sions beyond the edge of the seam. On
the top edge turn in narrow hem and
let the under one extend an inch and
finish across top and along side with
a tiny hem. The cuff is stitched to
the end of this extension. Thus neat
closing is made with little trouble.

I'VE probably never was a time
when intellectual discipline was more
greatly needed than it is today. With
out it, honest, effective work-to say
nothing of great achievements i'm
possible. We read a slovenly, i'll done
book, and we know that it is the pro-
duct of slovenly, undisciplined mind;
and it may be said, without offending
against the great law of charity, that
there are many books of this sort.
There are many PEOPLE who are ut
terly unable even to read good books,
but who rest content with the cheap
est magazine trash. During the
whole course of their lives they are
never brought into contact with any
re,pl intellectual force. The humblest
tas~s are poorly performed because
neither the mind nor the heart is
put into them. Much of the ineffi-
cheney that forces itself on us is to
be thus explained. Bad housekeeping
poor shop work, Indifferent farming,
and wretched public service are all, as
a rule, due to the unwillingness to
take pains. We either do not care, or
feel that we are above our tasks, or

Canned String Beans.

The beans should be fresh and ten
der, not full grown. Remove the
strings and break into pieces, wash
and put them in a kettle, cover with
boiling water and boil for five min
utes, drain, then cool and pack them
in jars. Fill the jars firmly, but not
quite to the top add one-half teaspoon
of salt for each quart of beans, pour
in enough clean cold water to fill the
jars to the top. Put the rubbers and
lids in place and proceed as for
beets, boiling them for three consecu-
tive days.

But the little child took it;
To it's mother wan and pale,
To her it brought more comfort
Then when blooming in the vale.
1t brought her joy and happiness;
Washed away her pains;
Made her glad and merry
While getting well again.
1t remained fresh for many days,
And looked on its career with pride.
Then at last with sweet accord,
The little flower withered and died.
In the same way the little girl
plucked the little flower in the wood
land vale, God plucks flowers in the
great valley of life.
In home where mother had re-
ceived the joy of little ones COM
radeship, where a mother had cast her
love from morn until night over lit
tie ones cares, God in His loving
kindness, came and plucked the little
flower, but this little flower did not

Cheap Cattle Disappear

yice-president Esrling of the Mil
waukee, who has been making a trip
ever the country tributary to the lines
of his road. finds the most significant
feature which he encountered to be
the rapid taking up of the great ranges
of Montana and their transformation
into prosperous farms. Montana is
coming into it's own as farming
state, and the time Is approaching
when the open range will have disap-
peared entirely.
Vice-president Earring is right in
his statement that the change is one
which will enhance greatly the well
fare of the state and its people II
is change which has come before to
other states, and Montana is practical
ly the last one to feel it. II is a
change, however, which has affected
the people of the whole United States
in one important respect, which has
features not altogether liked.
With the Disappearance of the range
has come likewise the disappearance
of cheap cattle and cheap food. So
long as there were vast ranges on
which cattle could find food. at no
cost during the greater portion of the
year. meat could be raised cheaply,
not only sufficient for our own uses,
but with large surplus for export.
As the cattle business expanded the
condition Of range cattle drove the
farmers out Of the business Of cattle
raising. They continued to buy range
stock and feed it for the market, but
