line stitch is used for the simplest pos sible development of the pattern, it permits of great variety. For instance, the horizontal lines may be worked in a combination of alarming and stem stitches, or they may be run in straight lines, then couched. They are suitable for silk, wool, chenille, satin ribbon, glass or wooden beads. Outline Is the best stitches for the circles, whatever novelties one may design to introduce in working the verticle lines. The chain stitch is also effective for the straight lines, and, finding beads expensive, their effect may be reproduced by using French knots.
 The basket pattern is intended for household linens. The pattern SUD- .plies two bow-knot and basket de- signs which may be used to decorate the ends of a dresser scarf, corners or curtains or corners of a boudoir pill. low. French knots, lazy daisy, cut

Eeg5 for Meat,

Eggs are one of the most sat1sfac- tory meat substitutes, but like cheese are a concentrated food and a certain amount of bulk is needed to augment them. The simpler fo1ms, as plain scrambled eggs, plain shirred eggs and plain omelets are really only breakfast dishes, eggs when served for luncheon, supper Or dinner being pre- pared in more elaborate form However most of the Q recipes are really only
 variations of the simple methods of cooking and tend to decrease the ex- pense of tn, dish because they add bulk of a less costly nature. For example, poached eggs may be served in nests of rice, with grated
 cheese and finely minced chives spr in
 kled over the top. Or they may be served in tomato sauce, or on blair cheese sauce, in nests of cooked hom iny.
 Ramekin or shirred egg dishes ma! be ha1f-filled with highly-seasoned to
 mato sauce; break an egg into each T season, dust with grated cheese, ant bake. Or for the tomato ss uce, sub stitute leftover creamed fish, add tn ) egg, season with minced chives, ant bake

 Along with serge, velvet is being prominently featured. Certainly there is no more elegant material for for mal or general wea&. The one-piece velveteens with fronts deeply cut out to exploit vests of varying shapes are individual in their charm and irres1s- tible in their appeal. The long mar | row vests seem to give greater dis | tinction to the open neck with high rolling collar, though there are many | frocks on which the collar is omitted entirely. There is no accounting for | the taste of women as regards neck finishings. Somo adore collars; oth-
 CTS cordially dislike them. This sea- son cream, biege and the softer tones of white sIch as oyster and almond are given preference ove. pure white,

Designers of dresses that home dressmakers can reproduce with the assurance of suc- cess, still cling to serge as the best material for combined service and style. Preference is given to the rich dark colors such as blue, brown, green and Burgundy. Black velvet, however, is frequently used and it forms a delightful background for vests, collars, revers, etc., of such light colors as cream, biege and white.

The neck is trimmed with deep collar which is gathered at the back, merg- | ing into one with the front of the | coat.

The Use of Cheese.

Full milk dairy cheese is one of our most valuable meat substitutes and should appear frequently on meatless days Supplemented by other bulky, inexpensive material, pound of this cheese is sufficient to prepare the main dish for luncheon or supper, foc family of six. Whether served raw or cooked it should always be used with a coarse food because the cneese is concentrated, and an acid, as a salad, or art fruit should appear III | the same menu.
 Cheese is more easily digested when cooked and as with all the muscle makers or protein foods, the cookery should be conducted at low tenn perature. All cooked cheese olsnes should contain little baking-sooa t< overcome the acidtty.

KLEBERC WELL NO. 2
WORK PROGRESSING
Ten-Inch Casing Set at Depth
of 1859 Feet-Not Try
ing to Save Gas

kINGSNILLE, Texas, March 90
Work is progressing rapidly on well
No. 2 for the Kleberg County Oil and
Gas company. Ten-inch casing was
set yesterday at depth of 1859 feet
There will be no effort made to con-
troll and save the gas in this well, as
was the case in the first well, but if
the gas can be held down they will
drill strictly for oil. Many are of the
opinion that oil will be found within
4 few hundred feet below the depth
Of the first well. which ended at 2l50
feet. The gas is being used for fuel
in drilling. The pressure of the gas in
well No. continues at nearly 900
pounds.
The officers of the Caprock Oil
Association, who have a derrick and
other supplies located about a mile
away from the Kleberg County Oil
and gas Company wells, state that
their rig has been purchased and is
now rolling and expected to arrive
any day.
There is some activity in leases in
Kleberg county and the following
named companies show from the rec
ords to have holdings: Empire Gas
and Fuel company, Kleberg County
Oil and Gas company, international
Petroleum company, Caprock Oil As
sociation, Henry A. Guffey, Foster
Brown Oil and Gas Syndicate, Kle-
valla Oil and Gas company, Texas
Midland Petroleum company, Nee-No-
She Oil company, Texas-Kentucky Oil
company. 1t il also stated that the
General Oil company has obtained
leases and will drill Immediately.
