OF course, league members OF the

may be presumed that none Of these
legislators has any assurance from any
source that under senate bill 157 the
newspaper IN which he is interested
will be selected as the official newspa-

The materials are Of soft texture.
There are velours de lame and silk
duvetyns which rival the handsomest
qualities of velvet. There are beauti-
fully woven English tweeds and Scotch

these cloths assure us that they will
"wear like iron," and that, indeed, is
true.
As for colors in these coat stuffs,
they range over the whole gamut. The

signers have made most interesting
combinations of plalds and plain ma

which have come into favor not only
for deep collars and cuffs used on
coats and suits Of wooden materials
but also for whole coats. The ermine
coats for evening are more beautiful
than ever and those Of sable rival the
nantes Of queens. Goat skin, long
and silky, has been dyed and used for
fur trimming. The favorite shade is
gray.
The wraps for evening indulge in
color to the last degree, and it is here
that the metal brocades and the vel
vet brocades are used to their best
advantage. The wraps are cut out
of long cquare pieces and little or no
shaping is given to them. All Of their

To make it: Procure a piece Of

linen. and should be roomy; they are
bound at the edges with colored braid.

With wooden cord to match the braid.
For hanging the pockets upon the

the nature shown in sketch A, and
screw them on at the back of the
board in the positions shown in

Suitable hooks, with screws for fas-
tening them on, can be obtained for a

lect large enough hooks to slip easily
over the bed-rail.
The pockets should be large enough
to hold book or magazine, and
