IN PLACE OF FILET CROCHET
Substitute Which May Be Made at
Home and Represents Great Saving
In Time invented.

There are a great many people who
admire filet crochet, yet they have
ne .hSr the time nor the patience to
make it, nor the means necessary for
buying the real article. 1t is for just
such people as the ones described that
this clever substitute has been invent
ed. 1t is a substitute which may be
made at home, and 1t may still be
classed under the general head of cro-
chet, but it represents such a tremend-
Gus saving in time, that it is worthy of
serious consideration.
This pattern filet is built I'D on a
plain crOcheted mesh like the genuine
lace; the only difference is that in the
actual crOcheting the smock of the lace
is ignored and just the open mesh is
made. After the foundation has been
completed the desired motif or design
is cut from linen or some finer material,
placed under the lace, and darned in
place with an over-and-over stitch. In
this way the pattern is IN a way ap-

and gives an exact imitation of the GRO

1t is easily seen that this device will
work best If rather plain patterns are
used. For instance, stripes of the lace
which require lettering, such as laun-
dry bags, baby pillows or coverlets,
or slumber pillows and the like, prove
very successful treated this way. This
is because the letters have compare
lively straight edges and may be cas-
lily and distinctly darned in place.
A very attractive cover for a card
table is made with three darned-in

Housekeepers Can Save
5000. 100000 on Food

In these days when the high cost of lv-

should be overlooked. One of the most
fragrant and the most easily prevented, is
the destruction of food by rats. One rat

food and property in a single night, and

the value of foodstuffs destroyed annually
by these pests. EXterminate them with
