I “THE ROSARY” FRIDAY NIGHT. “The Show Must Go On." So spoke Hazel Kelly, a member of “The Rosary" company, which is playing at the Bosse opera house Friday, December 4, when she recently 101 l through a trap door in the stage ! and so severely injured that site had i to be left behind at a local hospital I while her fellow players went on their I way, Hacel at one time played with : that good old drama. “Polly of the ! Circus,” and it was the words of the I heredne of that well known play that i she qu< , <1 tile words of Polly, who. injured during the performance, was left behind in a “tank” town to re- ] cover, while the tents and clowns and fellow performers proceeded on their ( way. “The show must go on!” Thus early in life is Hazel Kelly learning the bitter, intexorable rule of circus and theatrical life. “The show must go on.” We all know the thrilling of time worn incidents of the life of the professional entertainer, the clown j who cracks his time-worn jokes and plays his silly antics while his wife, lays dying: the young and gushing, heroine, who sings or tells of her love r and happiness, though on the table of | her dressing room lies a telegram annuncing the death of her mother: I the comedienne, who sets the house, rocking with mirth and then hastens ; away to the hospital to wa.it with dumb anguish through the last moments of the life of her dying child. “The show must go on.” “Only a I short time ago,” said Miss Kelly,] “they buried a man who in his way j played quite an important role. For > a few hours they closed the show that for years ho had frequently changed from comedy to tragedy. He died and the ‘show went on.' Today Morgan is only a memory where but t yesterday the whisper of his name ' was enough to start a panic or restore confidence in the financial world.”

Easily Made Christmas Novelties in Neckwear EAr'l- -<;> * .. x ih >■.' I . ■ i ; *** l ;r -'. .»-e£ «ffijaskSh. }. NECKWEAR and muff sets were never more fashionable«than they are just now, and they are among the easiest to make of home-made gifts. They confer both stylo and comfort upon their wearers to the joy of those who receive them. Neckpieces are simply straight lengths of velvet, plush or fur cloth, cut a quarter of a yard wide and a yard or more in length. They are lined with satin and gathered in at the ends, where a tasseled ornament makes the finish. They fasten about the neck with a hook and eye or slide. Crocheted, passamenterie or bead buckles and ornaments are used on them. Muffs are barrel-shaped and made over beds of down or wool batting. These bed* are bought ready made and are very cheap. Velvet coverings are usually gathered over them with ruffles at each end as shown in the picture. The muff and ruffles are lined with satin. Silk cords or strands of large black beads are fashionable this season for decorating these sets. Inexpensive Gifts in Collars ana Vestees _ -- r. -v* Hk I t > V- ! a -iß< A COLLAR and vestee in sheer orr"X gandie, to wear with tailored suits will bo welcomed by every woman and costs almost nothing but the time for making. The flaring collar is finished with hand-embroidered scallops or a band of fine narrow swiss embroidery, or lace, which extends down each side. The collar and vestee must be cut separately and joined at the neck line. The collar is wired to make it stand and flare correctly. A brilliant vestee, with collar and rovers of filmy lace, is pictured made □f brocaded velvet and shadow lace. The vestee is a band about the neck gradually widening to the waist line where it is trimmed into points. It fastens just above tho points with ! hooks and eyes, and here three small, ' fancy buttons are set on for ornament. A short ruffle of lace forms a flaring 1 collar which is supported with fine wires. The revers are made of straight pieces of lace draped in at each side and at the top in the neck line. Made as bright colored brocades this is one of the prettiest of novelties to be worn to embellish the blouse.

I ** Homemade Gifts Acceptable to Men 1 I S/ I < lA V // SELECTING gifts for one’s menfolks ’ is perplexing to the Christmas j Shopper; tbelr needs are few, com- i pared to those of women and children. | Men like gifts that add something to : their comfort and they like convenient ! things. They especially appreciate , gifts made by the donor, and this year, | there are some novelties for them | which are not difficult to make at ■ home. A basket, which will do either for a den or a bedroom, is made very easily. The materials selected for it depdnd upon the purposes for which it is to be used. If it is intended for a convenient receptacle for ties, collar buttons, pins, needles, thread and various odds and ends, it is to be made of cretonne, brown linen or figured silk and I finished with ribbon. But if for a den. to hold pipes, matches, cigars, tobacco, , etc., it is to be made of thin leather or I heavy silk and finished with silver or > gold braid and cord. A collar box covered with cretonne i and suspended bj ribbon hangers is a reliable gift sure of a welcome. A round pasteboard box of suitable size , is needed over which the covering is 1 stretched and either pasted or sewed. | For small remembrance tokens flat ■ sachets of crepe paper carrying lavender or spicy perfumes in an oblong bit | of cotton batting, are tied with narrow strips of ribbons. i Desk Sets for the | Office or Home j | iS ! :g,. : : . *.3 j ■ ,1 j AMONG the most, attractive of novel presents for inen are office or library sets coniictin,; of portfolio, letter box, waste ba ket, candle shades, etc. They are made of handsome wall paper designs pasted over foundations of he.ivy cardboard or Wood. A paper havjig abr i Liat I; and v. hite stripe with dark rod flowers, vaguely outlined o.i it, was u. d to . cover tho letter box and portfolio j shown in the illustration. The candle i ; shade is of dark red paper decorated i with a fancy gold braid pasted on. The ability to choose an attractive paper and paste it on neatly is about all that is required for making these sets. Leather effects, the tiffany papers, besides many artistic flowered patterns . are suited to the purpose and make useful and tasteful gifts that men ap- . preciate. t Tobacco Pouch and Dressing Case Bag - i —■ —• ■ ;;y • I | A TOBACCO pouch is made of foul ’A long, narrow triangles of leather l| or of a silky plush, sewed together. A U silk lining is made in tho saiw w... y and placed in the outer bag The edges; j along the top are blind st;idied to l| gether. The bag is 7'a ir.e’i, lone-, | each triangle 3% inches wide. A casing is stitched in the bag I 1 ,?, ■! inches from the top to accommodate I narrow elastic bands for drawing i strings. If the bag is to be hung up ribbon or cord suspenders aro sewed J at each side. ,
