1t goes without saying that bags OF
all sorts are among those gifts that
are always welcome. There are many
new ones this year made OF coarse
canvas, or unbleached linen and
trimmed with narrow satin ribbon
and ribbon flowers. Baby ribbon may
be drawn through the interstices of
the canvas. Drawing threads out of
either the canvas OF linen makes II
possible to weave wider ribbons over
and under the remaining threads, In
borders or ornaments. Flowers cut
from cotton or linen, in various col
ors, are applied to the linen bags and
buttonholed along their edges with
cotton floss or yarn. A case for hold

were not especially pleased to be
treated like a pair OF Indians, but

the women inquired: "Mr. Beldler,
are you married."
"Yes," replied "X."

The other story seeks TO justify
Bohnson's act. A Cheyenne chief had
ksided and burned Johnson's camp
while he was away on q trapping ex-
pedision. When he returned and saw
khe ruina, he swore that he would
ktll the Cheyenne and eat his liver.
