PRETTY AND USEFUL TRAY

the right and scored across at the
points indicated by the dotted line 1t
is. however, a good plan prior to cut
ting out the card to cut out rough
pattern in fairly stiff paper and bend
it into shape. The card is covered
on one side with pale pink sateen,
and on the other with thin white silk,
upon which the floral design shown
has been embroidered. The materials
are sewed together at the edges and
must also be tackled down to the card
at the places where it has been scored
across.
The four flaps are then bent up
wards until the edges meet at the cor
ners of the tray, when they are Sc
curely sewed together with white silk.
The upper edges of the tray are bound
with narrow green ribbon, and in doing
this holes should be first pierced in
the cord for the needle and thread to
pass through.
The center portion OF the design
which appears upon each side of the
tray is worked with silk in two shades
of pink, and the leaves in various
shades of green.

DESIGNERS ARE PUTTING FOR
WARD MANY NEW EFFECTS.
Skirts and Jackets of Different Fab
RIGS Seen Among the Certainties of
the Season-EVening Frocks
of silver Tissue.

The mingling of striped silk and
plain blue serge promises to be a
popular feature for the coming sea-
son. A handful of straws point to the
fact that we will wear skirts and
jackets of different fabrics on the
street, and the favorite choice for the
skirt will be striped or checked, heavy
silk. The stripes, mind you, run around
the figure more often than they do
up and down.
This same idea is followed out in
evening gowns, for skirts and bodices
do not match in material, even if they
do in color All winter we have worn
the bodices of gauze, and now it is
supplanted by bodices of silk, heavily
embroidered in silver.
There are onepiece frocks to be
worn on the street either in the morn
ing or the afternoon, that also show
the fashion for the mingling of two
materials. A blue faille skirt with a
bodice of gaberdine is used for one

Forzane; the model has evidently lain
fallow in the brains of the de-
signers and has been brought out
again for the spring.
In it's present form it gains a touch
of novelty by being made of two ma
terials that are in sharper contrast
than the materials used two years
ago.
After Doucet launched his remark
ably lovely evening frock of silver
tissue last November, America took
hold of the idea and exploited it, but
very few women would wear the
gown. Probably they were afraid of
the reputation that silver tissue has
of furnishing and turning black when
left to itself. And yet, after this gown
was launched, women took hold of the
idea of wearing colored, metal cloth
| frocks.
The production of this material was
triumph of the looms and of the
master weavers. 1t was foisted upon
the public without much heralding
and it became easily the foremost
fabric of the month. Happily, it has
not been dyed in brilliant coors; il

SlINCSBYCASE IS
BEFORE BRITISH
COURTO OF APPEAL
Child Substitution Case Or
iginating at San Francisco
Is Argued-Big Estate Is
Involved.

London, Jan. 17.-Sir Edward Car
son, the celebrated Irish leader and
lawyer, who recently refused the post
of attorney general OF Great Britain,
appeared before the court of appeal
today to argue on the appeal in the
Slingsby case. This case, which orig
mated in San Francisco, has become
known as one of the most remarkable
legitimacy cases to come before the
British courts in many years.
The case hinges on the legitimacy of
"Teddy" Slingsby, boy now about
four years old This boy Charles
Henry Reynard Sllngsby, late lieuten
ant in the royal navy. believes to be
his son, but other parties concerned
assert that Mrs. Slingsby gave birth
at San Francisco to dead child, and
that Teddy is the child of another
woman and was substituted.
The appeal in the case is from the
recent decision of the probate court
upholding the legitimacy of the child.
The probate court judge decided in
favor of Teddy because an artist
friend agreed with him that there was
n remarkable resemblance between
the boys ear and that of Mrs. Sings
by, who claims to be the mother De-
positions Of DR.. w. w. Fraser and
other residents of San Francisco, to
the effect that Mrs. Slingsby had not
been visited by tho stork, we're thrown
out by the court on the ground that
the persons making them were not
creditable witnesses
AT the trial of the case Mrs. Sings
by admitted that she had inserted in
a San Francisco paper, an advertise
ment for baby shortly before Teddy
was born. She denied, however, that
she had procured child in that way.
Mr.. Slingsby. who desires to estab-
lish the legitimacy of the boy as his
son, is in possession of the Slingsby
estates, near Knaresborough, in York =
shire, which date back to William the
Conqueror In the event of his death,
If he has a male heir. the estates pass
