Loom Tor Weaving Bags.

Today am going to tell you now
to make = simple loom on which you
can weave bags, small table runners
and foot-stool covers.
This loom 10 made OF an oblong
piece Of stiff cardboard-so stiff that
1t will not bend. To make a bag cut
this piece Of cardboard the exact
width you want the bag to be when
finished, and just twice as long. with
two additional inches in the length.
Use a sharp knife against a rulers
edge, in cutting 1t, rather than scis-
sors.
Now that you have an oblong strip
Of cardboard the next step is to rule
penciled line one inch above the
edge Of either end, parallel to the
edge. Holes are punched along these
two lines one-eighth Of an inch apart
"a thumb tack makes a good hole
puncher).
Now you must run linen threads nat
against one side of the cardboard.
from end to end, fastening this linen
warp" thread as follows:
How to warp" the cardboard loom
Take two large needles and thread
thread (this Is pulled out later. SO
it's color does not matter). The linen
warp thread should be in ball or on
a spool. Fasten the end of it into the
first hole in any corner OF the card
board loom. with large knot. Carry
straight to the opposite end of the
cardboard and put a loop Of IT into
the first hole at that end. catching
this loop of linen thread fast at the
back of the loom. by running the
needle with black shoe thread
= k,A 1on ho NH
entirely across the cardboard to the
second hole at that end; and here
catch a loop of the linen thread In
this second hole by means Of the other
needleful of black shoe thread. Con-
tinue like this till every hole In the
cardboard loom has loop OF linen en-
warp thread caught in it securely by
the black shoe thread. These warp
threads should not be stretched too
tightly across the cardboard-for
later on the cardboard loom Will be
folded over in the middle, and the
linen warp threads must be slack
enough to permit folding.
You must have an odd number OF
linen warp threads. Make the odd
thread by carrying the ball from the
last hole down the loom to the other
end and fastening 1t right In the
cardboard itself. Also sew the ends
of the two needlefuls Of black shoe
thread into the cardboard to hold
them fast.
Now double the cardboard. folding
1t at the center. so that the linen
warp threads are on the outside.
Fasten the, two ends together with a
paper clip or by sewing the edges to-
gether. Very heavy cardboard bends
with a cleaner edge If it is scored
first with a sharp knife; but this
scoring must, Of course, be done be-
for you put on the linen warp
threads).
The loom is now a square instead Of
an oblong. Silkateen or any heavy
silk thread-may be used for the
"weft" (that is. the threads that are
woven over and under each warp

long tall. but his fright didn't pre-
vent him from using his eyes in
search of hiding place. But look as
he would, he could see no place where
he would be safe from Reddy Fox.
1t was fortunate thing for the
little Mouse that there was a thick
patch of ferns right there, for under
these Reddy could not see him. Had
he been out in the open, Reddy would
have caught him in two jumps. But
in those ferns Reddy had to move by
hearing; He would hear the faint
sound of those running little feet and
then spring in that direction. Two
or three times he very nearly brought
his black paws down on that poor
little Mouse. Each time 1t seemed to
that little Mouse as If his heart would
jump right out of his mouth.
In just few minutes the little
of ferns. He couldn't turn back, for
Reddy Fox was right behind him. He
didn't hesitate. He ran out into the
open and straight over to a tall. dead
stub oAa tree. He lodged around it.
Then what do you think he did? He
ran right up that tall. dead stub.
Yes. sir. he did just that He never
had climbed anything like that be-
fore. He didn't know it was the right
thing to do. But he didn't hesitate
1t was his one chance for life and he
took it.
Up, up, up, climbed the little Wood
Mouse without once looking down.
He half expected to hear the claws of
this dreadful enemy coming up after
him. At last he reached the stub of
a broken branch. On this he stopped.
He had to. He was out of breath.
Also he was tired, for you know he
was only a young Wood Mouse, that
he was afraid that If he kept on he
wouldn't have strength enough to
cling to the tree and would fall
This was his first chance to look
down. At the foot of that tall dead
stub, looking up at him, was Reddy
Fox. Such look of disappointment
and anger as there was in Reddy's
eyes! That look alone told the little
Mouse that here was an enemy that
couldn't climb; In climbing that stub
he had done the only thing there was
to do. and it had been the right thing.
Then the little Wood Mouse remem-
bered something. He remembered
that his father, Whitefoot. had told
him that there were certain enemies
among these was Reddy Fox He
hadn't known that this was Reddy,
but now he guessed it. Little by lit
tie his heart seemed to go back where
1t belonged. Little chills no longer

was beginning to breathe more easily.
II fooled that fellow that time"
said the little Wood Mouse, quite as
if he had planned it all out before
hand. Then. because he was a very
young Wood Mouse, he leaned over
and grinned at Reddy Fox. Reddy
drew back his lips and showed all his
teeth, and the sight Of them was SO
dreadful that the little Mouse almost
lost his balance. But he didn't quite.
If he had lost his balance there would
be no more stories about this par
ticular little Mouse.

RACIAL oRIGIN-French.
1t would be hard to pick more
English sounding family name than
Pickett. Yet its origin is not English
at all, but French.
Those who bear the name Of Pickett,
however, can be sure of one thing
that the name has spent two or three
centuries in England before being
brought to this country, Tor while the
origin OF the name Is not English, its
spelling certainly is This points
very strongly to the probability that
1t was transplanted from France to
England at some period before the
spelling of names. and, indeed, Of

turiea And the name Of Pickett is
an example.
It comes from the French adjective
"picote." meaning pitted. as from
smallpox. AT the time Of the Norman
invasion family names had barely
begun to develop. and were confined
at first to the nobility. BY the time
such an adjective could have set
tied down into family name virtually
everybody had ceased speaking
French in England. Hence it must
have come over later. The pronunci-
alton Of picote," with the final
syllable "e" dropped, was very nat
urally represented by the spelling
Pickett. The surnames Pigott and
Pigot show every evidence OF having
developed in France, and of being
brought to England, or straight to
this country, at a later period.
