LABOR DAY.

Labor day Is a holiday set aside for the benefit of the workingman, day for the giving of increased attention tol the dignity and importance of labor. In its observance there has been many changes. There was the time of big parades. from which in fact the holiday developed and there have been the days when important leaders have addressed large gatherings at labor picnics and centers. Changes have taken placa in connection with the observance of Labor. day quite the same as with others It is a aday which the great bulk of people use for recreation purposes, but condi- tions at the present time are such that there cannot fail to be. more or less thought directed to the developments without the circles of labor and partic- ularly organized labor, since it is CT ganized labor and Labor day thas are so closely associated.
 Not all that has been done within or ganized labor circles has received the endorsement of all organized labor There are elements which are subject to no limit and no regulation. They are inclined to believe that whatever
 
 less of conditions and that they are jus tifed in reserting to all kinds of vio- lence in order to reach the goal. This can never get the sanction of sound leadership or the support of the rank and file. It represents an element which hurts rather than helps the or ganization to which it is attached.
 Likewise there is an insistence upon class supremacy and the right to inter- feTe with the life of the nation until it is recognized. It is to be realized that organization does not bar those outside of it from the right to work and make a l living, and that there is no right to main, murder and destroy just because | others are willing to earn their living. The resort to violence has no justihca- 1 ton. Likewise on Labor day time might well be devoted to the considera- ton of the fact that regardless of what the dispute may be bAtween labor and capital it is to be realized that the pup I Sic has right to be considered and that labor, both organized and unorganized forms a considerable part of the public

MARKING YouR. LINEM

All the household linen should be carefully and plainly marked. This IS most important where the household washing goes to a big laundry, for a personal mark as well as the laundry mark is a double safeguard against loss.
 There are different methods of do- ing this of course the most artistic, but unfortunately the most expen- sive way is to have the initials or monogram embroidered on the linen. Most of the big linen shops will un- dertake to do this or if you are clev- CT yourself it can be done at home.
 Marking ink is the more ordinary method, and this can be done at home with good waterproof ink, or many shops do it free of charge when the goods are bought. It should go in the top left hand corner, and,sin addition to the name, it is a good plan to mark the numbers of the set; thus the articles can be used in rotation and the wear capitalized.
 Ready made letting looks very at. traetive if the name is carried out ir pretty style and the strip of tapt is easily and inVisibly sewn to tht linen.
 The linen must be well kept to wea1 well. The cupboard where it is stored should be dry and airy, and preferab bl. on an inside wall. Linen rots and mil dews very quickly under the influenc
 ef damp. The shelves are best O wood with spaces between the spar ! in order to allow a free passage 0
 air. They should be large enough t
 take bed and table linen largely fold l ed, and little space to spare. Fac
 kind should have a shelf to itseli 1 and things that are not very oftel
 used should be wrapped up in ol
 muslin or kitchen paper.

WHEN CUTTING OUT A DRESS

Always spread all the pattern on the material before attempting to cut any of it out. In this way material may be economised and the best re- suits obtained.
 If very elaborate pattern is cho- sen for special dress it is well worth while to make it up in some cheap cotton material, the very cheapest will do, so that any alteration may be made before the costly material is touched. Where pennies are con- sideration this will prove a great saw ing.
 Weight the pattern down on the material so that it does not nrove while cutting.
 A good plan is to chalk a line around the pattern before cutting, using a tailor's white chalk. The ed ges will be more clearly cut and the ''turnings in'' clearly defined.

POPCORN

Popcorn usually is popped to be eaten at once, or it may be made into popcorn balls, eraekerjack or other forms of popcorn confection. A com mon way of preparing it is by pop ping and spriRkling . it with salt or adding salt and melted butter. Some times the popped corn is eaten with milk and sugar, like a breakfast food.
 The parched, unpopped kernels when ground like coffee make good break fast food to be eaten with cream and sugar or for boiling with water and serving ike oatmeal. Some popcorn sellers make a tasty preparation by popping the corn in melted butter and lard, with salt added. Instead of butter and lard it may be popped ia corn oil or peanut oil

TO TEST cocoANUT

Irf selecting the kind of cocoanut you are going to use regularly in your home you should exercise the same care that you show in choosing milk, butter, eggs or any of the other foods your household needs.
 The best prepared eoeoanut consists largely of long shreds. It does not consist much of the tiny bits of CO., coanut. It should not be absolutely dry, but it should not contain exces- sive moisture. for in that case you will be paying for what after all is plain water

SEWING MACHINE

Fhs sewing machine is certain to need at least 8 yearly overlapping. Be sure to use only fine quality of machine oil for this, and too little is better than too much, as dust will collect on the parts and clog the bearings. Run the machine a few minutes on white cloth after oiling to be sure that the surplus oil is re- moved.

CROSS PATch

One of the seasons most agreeable
 and HlSeable sport fabrics makes it's appearance under the name of cross
 patch. In making its entry at this late date it may well be lilxened to a
 dsrk horse, for it's novelty appeal
 promises it's extensive showing for mid summer sport garments. It is en- tirely different from anything so far introduced, and, in contradiction to it's soft yarn surface, it is one of the coolest and most porous of textures.
 This fabric is a yarn-faced and cot ton backed product that is worked on a Battenberg lace idea, but the ground of cotton thread which is the founda- tion, is left intact and gives the open porous effect that chara cteri4es the cloth and makes it's appearance be- tween the patches of it's yarn surface.
 Cross patch is an ideal fabric for beach capes and for the color effect most desired in sleeveless sport coats nothing could be more suitable. as it has practically no weight and it's open texture promises the greatest comfort
 even on the warmest days. The yarn surface of cross patch is sweater like in effect, but coming in a fabric ii may be modelled in interesting slip over blouses and sweater ideas that exceed in novelty anything that an entirely knitted garment may achiece

BY drawing the picture for their audi

suffer in giving comfort to the little ones

not impress us so much as an instance of
supernatural wisdom as a striking drama
