HAD BROUGHT PAS PRAYERS
Lad Conveyed Substantial Comforts for the Family of the Af-

Once upon time sickness came to the family of the poorly paid pastor of country church. It was winter and the pastor was in financial straits A number of his flock decided to meet at his house and offer prayers for the speedy recovery of the sick ones and for material blessings upon the pas tors family. While one of the dea- cons was offering a fervent prayer for blessings upon the pastors household there was a loud knock at the door When the door was opened a stout farmer boy was seen, wrapped up comfortably. What do you want, boy" asked one of the elders. I've brought pas prayers" replied the boy Brought pas prayers? What do you mean?" Yep, brought his prayers, an they're out in the wagon. Just help me, an we'll get 'em in" In- vestigation disclosed the fact that pas prayers consisted of potatoes, flour, bacon, cornmeal turnips, ap- ples, warm clothing, and a lot of jel- lies for the sick ones. The prayer meeting adjourned in short order.- Omaha World-Herald.

BUTTERFLY DESIGN HAS ALWAYS
 4 BEAUTIFUL EFFECT.
Worked With Simple Lace Stitch This May Be Said to Make an Ideal ecoration-Directions
 for Making.

A beautiful effect of handmade lace can be obtained by working de- signs with a simple lace stitch.
 This stitch is quite easy 10 learn, and is quickly worked. For the deco ration of tcacloths, doilies, table runners and cushion covers this is an ideal decoration.
 Various motifs can be worked in this style, and one that works out par ticularly well is butterfly. which can be had on transfers, in various posi- tIons and sizes. For many purposes, just a butterfly placed in one corner of the article is sufficient decoration, and when this embroidery is em- pIoyed there is usually no need to put lace around the cloth.
 To work transfer the butterfly on the material, and work the outlines of it with ordinary buttonhole stitch; thus four wings of the butterfly will
The log cabin Democrat., 1916-05-01

become four shapes, the body and head are worked with satin stitch well padded, and the feelers with tiny oyer-and-over stitches.
 To begin the lace work, start on one wing; first of all buttonhole two stitches into the buttonholing done, take very firm hold Then, work ing from left to right, make two more buttonhole stitches; now work from right to left, make two buttonhole stitches into the thread connecting the stitch groups, but only sew into the material itself at the end of the row.
 Each row can increase or decrease, according to the shape to be filled in, but the material must not be sewed ; into except as stated.
 The last row of the shape is worked into the buttonhole round material like the first row.
 This lacework is a surface from under which the material can be cut away. and the pattern looks like lace let in.
 Some of the holes should be worked over and over to represent the spots on the butterfy's wings.
 The necessity for buttonholng round the shape will now be seen; it keeps the pattern firm. The material underneath the lacework must be cut away most carefully so that the out line is not cut into.
 The embroidery can be worked on linen. damask. lawn. silk. etc, it is very strong and washes beautifully. The idea need not be limited to white; the butterflies or other de- signs look beautifully worked in col ored silks on buff colored linen

Kills Kitchen Odors.

One of the most useful applications of electricity about the household is a motor-driven exhaust fan for the kitch- en. Attempt to ventilate this room by opening windows and doors is bound to fail, especially in the winter time. Without ventilator the odors from cooking will penetrate the entire house and finger in the rooms hong after the meal itself is gone. The motOrdriven fan consists, as the name suggests, of a small motor at tached to a powerful fan in an upper pane of a window, near the range. The device is mounted well toward the top of the room The motor is attached to the lighting circuit and provided with a suitable snap switch for start ing and stopping it. During the oper- ation of cooking the switch is turned, and the fan forces out steady stream of air, carrying with it all smoke, gases and objectionable odors.
