THE NEWEST THINGS
IN BRIDGE CLOTHS
BY Laura A. kirkman.

For the sake of my readers who do
fancy work land l am sure that is q
large percentage / nm publishing
suggestions for the making Of pretty
ca rd-table covers.
Women card players OF today have
universally accepted black sateen as the
ideal cover for their bridge tables.
Such cover not only throws the cards
fout in sharp relief, but also saves much
laundering. | have recently seen covers
made as follows:
Indian Design Card-Table Cover:
The piete of black sateen which made
this coter was yard square, with the
edges turned under in a narrow hem
Conn letely around this hemmed edge.
ran three rows of worsted stitching,
| the top row being of sage green, the
| middle row Of dark red and the low
est row of tan worsted. The rows were
near together and consisted simply of
| long, bold stitches in and out OF the
goods. In each of the four corners was
the following decoration: Three small
Swastika designs done in beadwork-
one Swastika of tan, one of sage green
| and one of dark red The beads were
placed close together and sewed on the
cloth one by one, so as to form solid
mass in each of the four arms OF the
Swastika design. The red Swastika
design was placed across the extreme
corner, with the green and tan ones
above it. On the extreme tip of each
corner of the cloth. hung tassel form
ed of strung beads in double loops
one loop all of red beads, one all of
tan, and one all of sage green. These
long bead-loops ran through a large
wooden bead (which was placed about
halfway up the loop.
Persian Design Card-Table Cloth:
The plain black sateen cloth was made
exactly like the one just, described, ex-
cept that Mt each corner, concealed in
the hem, was a round lead weight such
as are used in the hens Of tailored suit
coats. The black cloth was decorated
as follows: Embroidery silk, in the
three colors seen so constantly in Per-
sian rugs-coral pink, pale blue and
jade grecn--was used directly around

eye when they climb up on a surgeons
table to be cut TO pieces.
A woman will love a man because he is
strong and dominant, and can conquer
the world, and compel success, and she
will adore another man who Ape ais to
every fiber of the motherhood in her by
his weakness and helplessness.
A woman will love alman because he is
q moneyfmaker, and can swathe her in
luxury, and she will ycarn after the man
who is dreamer who could not give her
carfare, but can quote poetry like an
angel
And so it goes. OF course, it may be
said that those who have many loves
have no great loves, and that the affec-
ton that is spread over so much xsenti-
mental bread buffers it pretty thinly
True. But it is life.
Occasionally, there is the grand pas
sion where there is no division of love;
where the one man and theione woman,
whom fate destined for mates, meet each
other. They find in each other all that
they desire, body and soul. There is
with them but the one love.
They do not have TO love on the IN
stallment plan, as the balance of us.
But the majority Of us are no more cap
able of the grand passion than we are OF
singing in grand opera, not do we find
many people whose attractions justify
any overwhelming devotion. Which is
perhaps just as well, for every great love
has in ii the elements of great tragedy
and we, at least, escape that with oul
passing affections.
And for any love let us be duly thank.
