buy and a great deal cheaper. 1t can
be made of ticking. muslin or calico.
Make tick like the covering to mat

and ends so it will make square
shaped tick when filed. Then fill 1t
with straw or cornhusks. Next make
cotton comforter, but make it lit
tie heavier than an ordinary COM
forter and knot it well. Lay the COM
forter on top Of the straw tick and
stitch both together around the edges.

1t has resulted for a woman to con-
struct a really satisfactory device for
ripping open seam, and this has been
done only recently by an inventive fe-
male of Utica, N. Y. The apparatus is
made somewhat on the lines of pair
of scissors with pivoted handles the
same as scissors, the difference being
in the disposition of the blades and
the cutting surfaces thereof. This will
be readily understood by consulting
the Illustration. The front portions of
the two blades are sharpened and as
the implement is pushed forward the
threads are cut and the seam opened
by the action of the blades as they are
operated by the fingers.
