Of the bag make a beading of silk,
brocade or satin, about three inches
deep, to draw strings of ribbon.
Any size bag may be made to suit
the taste of the knitter If a larger
or a smaller bag than the one described
is desired, set on less or more stitches
and knit until the work doubled makes
square.
More than three feet of beads will
be necessary, of course, but one must
always take care to get the join Of the
silk at one end, not when working the
row across
Then the loose ends or knots can be
taken into the seam. fancy the knots
which come so frequently prevent the
knitting being done on three needles,
as one would form a stocking, going
around and around until the bag were

quite as easy as Knitting with two
needles and would also do away with
the seam down the side.-Boston

TO AVOID PUTTING ON FLESH
Summer Girl Who Takes Little Exer-
else Should Take Extreme Care
aa to Her Diet.

A good many women find that they
grow stouter during the summer
months and thinner through the win
ter. The autumn finds the average girl
ten pounds heavier than her weight
the previous spring. This putting on
of weight over summer is no longer a
mere fancy, it is an acknowledged fact
OF course, there are girls, very thin by
nature, who cannot seem to add flesh
in any way, not even over summer,
but they are the exception. The fact
remains that the average girl is in
cIined to grow stout during the hot
weather
The reason is most apparent. No
one wants to move about very much
when the weather is warm. The sum
mer gives everyone a sort Of lassitude,
and consequently the favorite summer
pastime of the average woman is to
sleep and to eat-and that is all. No
wonder all the girls come back from
their summer vacations looking so
much healthier and-stouteT!
This state Of affairs is all very well
for the girl who has lost so much
weight that she is anxious to gain.
But for the one who is rather inclined
toward embonpoint the addition to
her weight is nothing short Of fatal.
But forewarned is forearmed, and she
who does not want to gain this sum-
mer should learn how to avoid it.
Too little exercise and too much
food are fatal to figure. Therefore,
the girls who want to stay slender
this summer will do well either to ex-
ercise or to avoid fattening foods. If
