Goodness gracious, here comes Christmas again, And most of us, in spite of our resolutions of former years, in spite of the Society for Pre- vention of Useless Giving which we have more or less consciously joined, find that our Christmas lists are about as usual. After all, it is hard for those who have the time and abil- itv to make attractive gifts to refrain entirely from their fashioning. And it is really great fun to see just how far one can go on a little outlay of real money.
 have in mind one very clever girl, who, having moved to a distant city during the year, found herself rather put to it to make attractive gifts for her absent friends and relative. So she sat herself down in front of her trunk, hauled out an evening dress which she seldom wore, and firmly took the skirt off. This she pressed and renovated. Then she rummaged until she found a few pairs of long gloves of former gay days. These she cut off to make new gauntlet ones for street wear, and the tops she put with the satin underskirt.
 A few scraps of colored ribbon,
Bisbee daily review., 1921-12-15

breakfast caps with twelve yards of narrow lace to trim them. Picoted ruffles of the net really cost less than lace, however, and in that case the net will make three caps, the other being used for trimming Small chif- fon 6lowers, wired butterflies and shir red rihhon bow knots are ways of trimming.
 A luncheon set of cream colored crash would be very pretty hemstitch- ed in rose or delft blue thread. The luncheon cloth should have hem about two inches wide,. and the six napkins may be hemmed wide or mar row to suit the designer. Japanese hemstitching, which is double hem stitching split, is more effective than the regular kind, and also withstands laundering better. To explain more closely, one takes five or six threads when making the first round of stitches. The second time, instead of taking up the same threads. one takes half of one group and half of the next thus making a crossed effect, which is very pretty.
 Ordinary button molds, which cost only a few cents a dozen, may be enameled in black and combined with glass beads of bright color to make ornamental tassels for window shades or cushions. In case a long tasseI is desired, one of wool may be added to the bottom of the molds.
 Pincushions which sell for way ur wonder in the shops may be copied at home by using odd pieces of silk and velvet ribbon, flower or two of geor gette crepe and designs of colored beaded pins are used with marvellous effect
 Covers for the lower part of the canary's cage are made of pale gray china silk bound in black and tasseleo in wool of bright shades.

some green leaves and a bit or two of silver tinsel were made into flowers and pressed flat with warm iron. The glove tops were covered with en- velope folders of the satin and wreaths of the tiny flowers were put on the flaps. Result, twelve as dainty jewel cases as one could want; cost, nothing but the postage to send them. With the satin which was left, she made a few sachets for hat crowns. tackirg them with wool and working a cross-stitch nosegay in the center. This girl was not one with cleverer ideas than many who will read this article; her necessity simply helped her through.
 It is very good plan to stick to one kind of gift when making num- Der, for one can get a remnant Of goods which made up in different styles, will do for several gifts. For instance, suppose one decided to make a number of table runners. A bolt Of braid in dull gold, a short length of tapestry and a scrap of vel vet will cost but a few dollars, and from all of this can be made three or four stunning covers.

MEXICAN BOOZE
 FLOODING TEXAS

MEXICO CITY, Dec. 14-Thou- sands lof gallons of liquor are being spirited every month across the Rio Grande, almost under the noses of customs inspectors, and reshipped from Texas points to every part of dry" America
 Mexico City is the center of a vast underground smuggling organization employing hundreds of men, each with certain specialized tasks. Many booZe-runners are men of so- cial position and wealth. All ara we'll supplied with funds. The profits of some amount to $50,00O or $75,O00 a [ year.
 Sources of Supply
 There are three sources of booze supply here.
 The first is good American whisky which smugglers attempted to bring into Mexico before the United States went dry This liquor Was ceized and impounded.
 All is of good quality Some of + is Il years old!
 Agents here continually are induc- ing Mexican officials to release this liquor. A Il City are turning out American" liquor day and night. They nave copyrighted in Mexico the labels of well-known American liquor Drancs.
 Other breweries and distilleries are turning out limitations of French, British, Canadian, Scotch, Dutch and German drinks. They place on the bottles carefully counterfeited labels some of them brought from abroad. The third booze source is the eel lars of Mexican home-brewers who turn out synthetic, kill-at-sign. liquor made from mescal, tequila and ai- cohol.
 Sold on Commission
 After the booze has been made, 1t is bought by commission merchants. Theer are hundreds of these in Mex ico. They represent themselves as buyers for the interior trade. Tie , law. can't touch them.
 These commission merchants sup- ply the smugglers. But the liquor IS not sent in large quantities to the border-that would arouse suspicion. Instead it is sent to large warehouses at Monterey, San Luis PotoSi, Tor reon, Chihuahua, Durango and Gomez Polacio. D. From these points, the liquor is shipped to more than 40 border towns whence it can be gotten easily across the international line.
 How do they get the booze across? By wading the Rio Grande at shal- low points and placing it in the hands of accomplices on the other side. Or by putting the consignment n a boat and setting it adrift. The boat is picked up by smugglers op. erating from the American sIde.

PORTLAND OKEHS SP EC|AL TAXES FOR WORLD FA|R
Approval of State Is Asked For S3,O00, ,OOO Levy to
 Support Exposition

PORTLAND, Ore, Portland has ac- complished the first step in plans for the holding of a worlds fair here in endorsement by the voters Of a S2.0OO,G00 tax levy to be spread over three vears-and attention is now 1i- rected to the second effort in the fi- nancing of the project, approval by ! tho people of the state of a S3, 900 900 taY. which added to the amount Port land will raise and $1.000 900 to be obtained by public subscription will complete the financing
 A statewide election will be neces- sary to get sanction for the S300O. 900 tax, and this will not be held until the primary next May. In the meantime the state legislature in special session will be called upon to submit this pro posal formally to the people. Pending the final approval of finan- cial plans the working out of details of the exposition are held in tentative shape. Committees of representative citizens of Portland and the state, , however, have general plans in view which will be put into execution as soon as definite deci>eon has been made by the state. to support the pro- ject.
 Accepting the exposition as a virtu- al certainty, various sections of Port land have engaged in a spirited rival ry for the location of the fair. A half dozen or more available sites have been offered, and the committee in charge has issued a auestionnaire i'm tended to develop all facts concern ing each proposed location, and care full consideration will be given each before site is selected.
 The fair, officially designated as The Atlantic-Pacific Highways and Electrical Exposition, was projected to celebrate completion of transconti- mental highways and the centennial of the invention of the 'electro-magnet

HALT RUSH FUR
 GERMAN GOODS

COBLENZ, Germany, Dec. IA. - German newspapers for weeks have been waging a campaign of protest against what is termed the selling out of Germany to foreigners who have invaded the country to purchase goods since the mark began it's sharp decline early in October.
 The mark has fallen in value much faster than the prices advanced and, as a consequence, thousands of spec ulators have been attracted to Ger many to take advantage of the situa- tion
 In the occupied area the influx of foreigners became so great within q few days that the allied authorities soon decided that some concerted ac- tion was necessary to protect the res- idents.
 Order Blocks Purchases
 The president of the Rhineland pro vince, acting under direction of the Inter-Allied Rhineland High Commis- sion, issued decree prohibiting pur- chase of merchandise by foreigners not actually residing within the ter ritory of occupation. This order does not affect members of the allied mili- tary forces, the Rhineland commits sion nor other foreigners who were in the occupied area on legitimate business.
 Officials deemed chat this step to- ward trade regulation was necessary to prevent retailers from selling all their stocks to foreigners taking ad- vantage of the low rate of exchange on foreign currencies at a time when the price on goods in the German stores had not been advanced, or at least not marked up in comparison with the depreciation of the German money.
 U. S. Stores UndersoId
 For days, buyers poured into the Rhinedand on every train and by au- tomobile from Holland, Belgium, Lux embourg and other nearby countries and business in the stores of Coblenz, Cologne and Aix-la-Chapelle flourish ed as it never had before. The for eigners bought everything on sale and in whatever quantity could be arrang- ed with the retailer. This abnormal demand for goods continued for days and reached such a stage at times that storekeepers found it necessary to close their doors, because of the crowds, or because the shelves were empty. Clerks worked 16 and IS hours a day trying to keep up with the demand.
 Many articles of American manurac ture are on sale in CoblenZ stores at retail prices much lower than in the United States, taking :n,p considera- tion the rate of exchange. It is ex- plained here that these goods came from surplus army stocks in France which at various times since the arm istice have been disposed of by the United States liquidation commission to Germans and merchants of various other countries

Success in raising hogs depends on
two things-wen-bred stock, both
sows and sires. and proper housing.
Well-bred stock is plentiful. and no
farmer in these days of better farm
live stock can afford to breed or raise
scrubs" In every community, espe-
cially in the so-called corn belt
states, hogs are one of the principal
farm products, and high-bred, if not
registered purebred sires, are availa-
Bile. With a start Of one or two we'll
bred sOws and the service of a pure
bred boar, careful management will
insure good profit in hog raising.
The second essential-good houses
is just as available as good breeding
stock. During the last ten or more
years, architects who have made a
careful study of the needs of farm ami
mails have designed, and local con-
tractors ehave erected, thousands of
buildings-barns, hog houses and
chicken hOuses-that provide the live
stock with houses where they can be
kept at the highest state of productive
ty and in the best of health.
The product that farmers turn into
cash with their hogs is flesh. Both
can be obtained with scrub" stock,
but the cost is prohibitive. About the

Dice Gaming Ancient Sport.

Gaming with dice and cards has pre-.
vailed from the earliest times. We
do not read of gambling houses in the
classic literature of Greece, but there
can be no doubt that the vice was very
widely practiced in private houses. In
Rome, under the emperors. gambling
prevailed extensively. Augustus and
most of the succeeding sovereigns were
passionately fond Of the dice. and the
Emperor Claudius wrote a book on the
subject. Roman would transport
to a gambling resort his whole fortune
coins, papers and chattels-and.
after losing all. would even seize the
cloaks of his slaves to stake on a
change of luck.
