Carriage Boots for Baby.

II it weren't for the difference in
size you wouldn't know whether the
boots belonged to baby or mother.
They are made just exactly like the
carriage or auto boots for grownups.
The daintiest of pink satin has been
used for the purpose. Any mother
or loving aunt could make a pair like
them for some important bit of hui
mainly. They will prove a wonderful
comfort to his pink toes as he rides
around in his perambulator. A pair
of soles intended for bedroom slippers
can be bought as a foundation. From
the edge of these soles then the boots
are built quite high-almost up to
the kiddies knees. An interlining OF
flannel or lambs wool should be
placed between the layers Of silk.
White swansdown edges the top and
the line of opening. The boots are
slipped over baby's shoes. Ribbon
strings hold them in place.

State National Guard
Win Soon Be Doubled

General Bond bases this statement
on information from Washington that
the administration has abandoned she
continental army project and will use
its efforts toward the adoption Of the
militia pay bill. The general said
that he understood the plan will be
to increase the strength Of the militia
to 100000 men, equivalent to the pro-
posed continental army strength. This
bill will also provide federal pay for
militiamen at drills in addition to the
state pay now furnished and will pos
sible the recruiting Of more citizen
soldiers. ssz.i
This state now has 1.-TWO regiments,
one in the southern and the other in
the northern district. The militia pay
bill would provide for additional reg.
iments according to the population
meaning prabablys two or three more
for this state.
General Bond has Just returned from
Washington where he was in confer.
ence with war department officials re.
garding the equipment Of West Viz
ginia's machine gun company, which
will be located at Huntington.
Another military innovation will be
in the enlistment papers to soon be
issued by the war department. These
will provide an agreement on the part
of the recruit to submit to movement
outside of the states. A constitutional
provision now holds that the militia
cannot be taken out Of the state as a
militia organization.

an acceptable gift.
The paper wedding is even more
di.fcult to match in gifts. Pretty cal
encars come under the head OF paper,
as DO attractive blotters. Sets OF pa
per dollies Tor the cake or bread bas-
kct are acceptable gifts. Also any
r.eaents in papier mache. are appro-
pirate to the occasion, pin trays, ash
trays, etc.
The leather wedding on the third
anniversary, brings load OF useful
things. Leather pillows, leather COW
eIed books, blotters, etc, leather
scarfs for table or mantlepiece are all
in keeping with the occasion. II the
donor wants to make very handsome
gift, suitcase, travelling bag or
good looking purse would be beauti-
full and welcome presents.
The fourth year Of marital bliss is
called the fruit and flower year, and,
of course, lends itself easily to deco
rations and gifts.
The Wooden Wedding.
The wooden wedding, coming on the
fifty anniversary Of the wedding GER
emory, is perhaps more often cele-
brated than any other. Beginning
with this anniversary, 1t Is the custom
for the bride to make some sort OF a
stipulation against very expensive
gifts. AS wood covers all sorts OF
furniture from the finest piano to the
cheapest camp stool, 1t is only kind
for the bride to state in her invitation
that only presents brought by the
guests themselves will be accepted.
This shuts out all furniture, OF course,
and the attendants usually bring wash
boards, wooden mixing bowls, spoons,
etc. However, more attractive wood
en- gifts can be found in picture frames
book stands, carved wooden fans, etc.
The sixth wedding anniversary is
sugar. The seventh, wooden; the
eighth, India rubber; the ninth, will
low; but these are seldom celebrated,
the tenth, or tin, being next on the
LIST. This needs no suggestions, as
BALI the kitchen utensils come under
the head Of tin.
The eleventh anniversary Is steel,
the twelfth, silk and fine linen, the
thirteen, lace; the fourteenth, ivory;
the fifteenth, crystal, and the TWEEN
tieth, china.
With the silver wedding it is custo-
mary for the hostess to added to her

from bringing some presents, bat 1t

too numerous, but with little in
genuity and careful thought the at
tendants at a cotton wedding should
be able to find quite few attractive
things. For instance. the dainty guest
bags filled with small cotton pads for
powdering the nose make pretty and
appropriate gifts. Anything in cot
