Easily Made Collars.

/ MUAINT collar and cuff sets are made
w from embroidered handkerchiefs
One side. with a corner forming each
end. is cut Off two and a half inches
deep for the collar, and each Of the
other points make a cuff four inches
deep. Then take val lace about an
inch wide and ease it instead of full
ing it around the hens. Too much
fullness makes the lace turn back on
the cuff and roll up in anything but a
pretty fashion.
White embroidered handkerchiefs
make dainty sets, the kind that may be
worn with any color or with white
equally well. but those with bits of
color introduced into the work have a
style about them that Is very attrac-
tive. There are those with tiny flowers
done in an effective blue. All the rest
Of the embroidery is done in white.
The same idea is carried out in red or
violet. The sets are not only easy to
make, but are easy to do up, and II
you iron the lace while it is still wet

purpose. In the center of each scallop

chief around the neck and trim away a
very little of the linen at the back and

front points. bind the cut edge with q
narrow straight strip of linen, and with

to match may be added by cutting a
duplicate handkerchief diagonally in
half and binding the raw edges.
Pretty collars are made with the old
fashioned rtckrack braid. formed into
Dutch collar shapes. They are stitched
together and made into large stars or

WHEN THE GREEKS BRING GIFTS
(Goldfield NeWsl

The report that Mr. Bryan will be
one of solid Wilson delegation from
Nebraska to the st. Louis conven-
ton" was hardly in the nature of re-
assuring news to the friends of the
president And some of them are say
ing so. 1t is unlikely that Mr. Bryan
could have been chosen, even In his
own state, as an anti-Wilson delegate
The friends of the president are re-
calling with certain misgivings the
fact that four years ago Mr.. Bryan
was one of solid Clark delegation
from Nebraska to the convention
which met at Baltimore. They recall
that the instructions which Mr.. BRYAN
carried from his constituents were
treated as scrap of paper" and
that he utilized every influence at his
command to encompass the defeat of
the very candidate he was pledged to
support, a pledge he accepted when
he accepted his credentials.

also chooses to be a village, but has
10000 people or more, and an indus

ton. Maybe its enlightenment came
as a consequence of the Indian lid
there are no saloons now at Hibbing
and 1t is crime to have or give away
liquor there. But that is outside the
question.
The fact is, that to celebrate their
recent victory, Mayor Power and the
council provided for the children of
the village, all the ice cream, nuts and
candy they could eat They expressed,
in this way, their own satisfaction and
their thanks to friend and enemy. Here
all the youngsters of all the voters
shared alike in the celebration.
Under the older custom only those
who voted right would have had their
reward But that is minor part of
the difference that was beyond doubt
as gratifying to all the elders as to the
children and successful officials. The
major part was in thousands of happy,
exultant children, instead of in the
hundreds of drunken fathers.
1t was in a town of homes made
happier, instead of town with hun
dreds of homes made more desolate
and wretched; possibly some of them
with wives and children abused by
men made brutes because elected off,

Of the honor given them.

AGAIN THE SPOKANE SPIRIT.

The most notable achievement of the
late mining convention at Spo
kane seems to have been the inau-
guration of plan to move the state
school of mines of the state of
Washington from Pullman to Spokane.
OF course, this is matter that does
not concern the people of Idaho except
to the extent of confirming their
judgment of the controlling motives
back of the Spokane spirit. Long ex-
perience has given the people of the
Occur d'Alene mining district a clear
insight into the ways of Spokane
hence a call for a Northwest Mining
convention in that city means moth
ing more than an effort to divert a
little transient money into Spokane
and afford an opportunity to the emin-
ent mining men of Spokane to speak,
men who are engaged in extensive
mining operations about the hotel lob
bies and clubs. 1t was observed that
Occur d'Alene miners were conspicu-
Gus by their absence. They are wise
to Spokane, besides they are very
busy mining real ore But about the
Pullman school of mines, we are un-
able to understand why this scheme
to move it to Spokane did not include
the Idaho school of mines at Moscow
1t is only ten miles from Pullman and
the imaginary line between should not |
prove a serious barrier to the Spokane |
spirit.

privileged to disregard instructions or
pledges is notorious, and it is therefore
not to be doubted that if he sees an
opportunity to ditch President Wilson
at st. Louis to his own advantage, as
he ditched Champ Clark at Baltimore,
his new instructions will be no more
binding than were those he carried to
Baltimore. In the same pocket with
his new instructions he will carry a
grudge, and he is about the most eff
fective self-advertiser that ever occu-
pied the lecture platform. That he
will let the st. Louis convention pass
without some sensational and spectac-
ular stunt is unbelievable. Some
friends of the administration recall
the old admonition, Beware Of Greeks
