PRETTY RIBBON CASE

DAINTY AND MOST USEFUL ACCESSORY FOR BOUDOIR. Work of Putting It Together Will Furrush Amusement fo- the Spare Hours Only Cardboard, Ribbon and Thread Required. Every one who keps a special roll of ribbon for her lingerie will like the little case illustrated. Ribbon frequently disappears just when it is wanted, but if nun 5 on the dressing table the owner will Ind that much time will be paved which might otherwise be spent In a fruitless search The rase wad made from two piece of white eardionru. Kaon piece was cut hiree Inches ;n diameter; an uf-h Iarr than ' which way to be The cardhoani pretty flowered ribb 4 of ribbon covered with a which was est Complete Case. peclally suitable, as it had running through it a gold shimmering thread. Two circular pieces of ribbon were cut out to cover each piece of cardboard, anc joined together by oversewing all round the edges. The roll of rose-colored ribbon was then inserted between the covers, and a hole pierced through the middle of the two latter and the roll of ribbon. A piece of ribbon was threaded through the holes and sewn securely 1o each cover. It was then joined at the top into a rosette. In the center of each cover a smaller RHtttte with ends was sewn to give a finishing touch. Should the worker wish to make nt of these for a present the color scheme of the owner's room should be taken into consideration. The case would look delightful covered with white linen, finished with blue or pink ribbon. The monogram of the ov.ner should be worked in the saroe color. In order that the linen rovers could be removed east. when totted, buttonholed eyelets should be wcrked at short distances apart round the edges. A piece of ribbon should then be run through these and tied in a wee bow. Another holder which is very easy to make la contrived from half a yard of ribbon. The worker should choos- a wide weave of silk ribbon coveted with I pretty floral design To make he . case, the ribbon should be turned up about one third of the width, and caught at intervals of three or four inches with I neat fagoting stitch to form pockets. The hems on ettfetr side should be finished in the same way. The worker should next take WMBfl SPRING SHOE STYLES READY Buttons and a Tendency to Low Heels Promise to Be the Features of Coming Seascn. Long before a woman buys her fall hoes the makers have planned the styles for the following spring - so far in advance of fashion is the wholesale trade Itumors are that nothing but button shoes will be worn next spring, that patent and kid leathers w'll be used mostly a:id that heels hav a tendency to be very low This doe- not mean that there will be a craze for the almost heelless shoes of the summer just gone far from it The newest heel will be a low Ixui Instead of the Cuban we have known. For girls the little heel ill be good and for outing ear, the beeile- rubber soled low shoe w ill be a popular next summer as it has been. Turned sole shoes will be Pied extensively and such tans as will be seen will be in dark shades light tan only in outing styles. Moreover, for dress wear, makers prd.v ? a voKut of fancy shoe;; that is. black or dark tan vamps, with colored suede up th'se to match the gown or suit, if preferred. Speaking of rubber-soled shoes, they -were a boon in that they were soft and Isilllil but ihoy were heavy to the foot, and some say too heating for comfort There is just out on the market, and will soon be purchasable in shoe stores, a new sole leather tanned by a bperial process that makes it as flexible as ntbbtr ytt lißht in weight. Kor women with sensitive feet this be s real boon

stiff white cardboard, and cut Into four pieces In the shape of the pockets already made. These pieces of cardboard should be slightly smaller than the pockets, otherwise they will not fit in easily when wound with ribbon. Some pretty lingerie ribbons should next be chosen, and a different color wound round each cardboard and ar ranged In the various pockets. To complete this case, the worker should add a tiny pair of scissors to one end of the case. These should b attached by means of a narrow piece of ribbon. At the other end a bodkin should be fastened in the same manner, and slipped into a narrow pocket, n.UUU J V. - .11 a r 1

neu Miuuiu ue an wea ior wnec ; making the ribbon pockets. A piece of ribbon should be sewn on the back, so as to tie the case to- I gether when folded. A case of this description would take up very little room in a drawer or box, for It has the appearance of a cardcase when folded. DESIGNS FOR SACHET CAPS Selection of Material an Imposant Thing for This Latest Very Popular Fancy. Shoiild be of handkerchief linen or nainsook, the heavier the better, for the odor of the sachet must be safely confined within the caps dainty limits; it wouid escape through a thin material. Cut from the goods a round piec' about 16 inches across and mark out the edges with a thimble and pencil for scallops. Buttonhole the scallops and edge with a narrow Valenciennes lace to relieve the somewhat heavy appearance of the cap. Run a narrow casing about an inch and a quarter above the scallops for th elastic. In the center work a solid design in white punch work, for eyelets would permit the odor of the sachet to escape. Make a flat, threeinch square sachet bag of the material used la the cap (nainsoon or handkerchief linen will be heavy enough, a th n layer of cotton and plenty of sachet, and baste It. to the inside of the cap right under the center design. Use a basting stitch, with very tiny stitches on the outside and large ones inside, so that the bastings will not be conspicuously prominent on the outside. Place a twisted ribbon about the cap over the elastic casing and a BSBall ribbon bow in the exact center to the scalloped edge. The sachet cap is then ready for "business." Worn for an hour or so the cap will impart a delightful. If somewhat fleeting, fragrance to the tresses, but worn overnight the perfume will sometimes cling to the hair for several days. LOVELY PICTURE HAT A large black picture hat which is such a becoming shape is edged with skunk and garnished with a beautiful double paradise plume. Novelty in Combs. A hinged comb is another odd idea just introduced. The top of most COttbfl so far stands up in a line with the teeth and stands out from the hair. This way the top is hinged, and when im- v'muii i iiiirru 111 int nan uu lop bends down flat against the head. It comes in plain amber or fancy rhiaestone effect. In the evening slippers, beyond Um fact that black satin will be very popular and the colors will run to vivid tones, there will be little change. Vamps will be slight!) longer and the general use of rich, metallic brocadej on gowns will be extended to slippers as well. The Knitted Hat. Righ: in line with the soft crowns and the millinery that nestles about the coiffure and frames the face instead of just sitting on the head as Was at one time the mode, we now have the knitted hat. Instead of making the best of a Tara-o'-Shanter. v, hether it was becoming or not, the sporting hat of this season will be made to simulate all the fashionable millinery in the tailored styles. They are so comfortable and chic in appearance that they will be used for any knockabout wear. Many pretty ones are displayed with the misses and children's school millinery. The matron or young woman may have as rich a hat as she desires. They are made in silks and chenilles, besides ratines wools and cottons, all admitting of a touch of stylish trimming. Girdle Tunics. A clever way to bring into style a last ear s dres is to add one of these girdle tunics They are made of velvet, wrapped high around the figure with a bow and sash ends at the back with a full and accordion plaited tunic attached The tunic Is made of satin In, blau k and various colors to match a contrast to the gown, the velvet girdle as a rule is black, and lined with the satin, the color of th.- tunic, which thorn Ka th way of pipings and little tabs

The light dessert should always follow'a heavy dinner, and vice versa. Frozen rice pudding Is a delicious and nourishing winter dessert. Knives are cleaned more easily and thoroughly with soda added to the scouring brick. Minced beets, potatoes and cucumbers served with mayonnaise make a good salad. A little borax, dissolved in warm water, will help to keep the children's teeth dean and sound. A hot water platter is a boon to the housewife whose "men folks" are frequently late for dinner. Haked apples are delicious with thir cores filled with orange marmalade or chopped nuts and sugar. An ordinary piece of mince pie is said to be the equal in food value to a piece of beef, a slice of bread and a potato. ;A11 cdors end here" is th- inflexible rule of charcoal. If the charcoal Is made red-hot and then cooled before uains Its virtues are increased.

SALTED NUTS MADE AT HUMt

Old Favorte for Afternoon and Evening Entertainments Need Not Be Expensive. Salted nuts are always acceptable as a part of the refreshments for afternoon and evening entertainments, aud as an adjunct to the simple home dinner as well as to the formal one. They are expensive when they are bought ready salted, and unless they ar bought of a reliable caterer they sometimes taste stale. They can be easily, Inexpensively and well made at home. Peanuts are appetizing and so much less expensive than almonds that it is a wonder they are not more often substituted for almonds. To salt them, buy unroasted peanuts which can be easily purchased from any street vender of peanuts. Shell them and remove the inside skins by letting them stand for a minute or so in boiling water, after which the skins may be removed between the thumb and forefinger. Leave them in the hot water only long enough to loosen the skins not long enough to wilt or cook the nuts. There are several ways of browning the nuts One way is to put two teaspoonfuls of olive oil It must be of good quality in a pan and roll the nuts in it. Then put them in a brisk oven and letvre them there until they are brown. Another way is to put a tablespoonful of oil in the bottom of a chafing dish, turn the heat full on. and drop in enough nuts at a time to cover the bottom of the pan. Keep the nuts moving over the flame until they have turned a delicate brown. Almonds, blanched and shelledr and pecans, carefully cracked but not blanched, can be salted in the same manner as peanuts. When they are brown, turn them in a paper and sprinkle them with salt. Let them cool before taking them from the paper, which absorbs the superfluous oil and makes them pleas;uiter to handle. KEEPS SPICE BOXES HANDY Shelves That Hang on the Inside of Cupboard Door the Latest Thing in Conveniences. To keep the spice boxes in a handy j place where they would be together and not behind the larger articles on j the cupboard shelves. I made a speShelf Will Hold All the Spice Boxes and Keep Them Handy. dal spice-box shelf, as shown, to hang on the inside of the cupboard door. The shelf swings out with the door is it opens, and is made of two brack: et ends to which a bottom board and front crosspiece is nailed. The size of the shelf and its capacity are only limited by the space on the door. Popjlar Mechanics. Norwegian Prune Pudding. One-half pound prunes, two cups cold water, one cup sugar, one-inch piece stick cinnamon, one-third cup boiling w ater, one-third cup cornstarch, one tablespoon lemon juice Pick over and wash prunes, then soak one hour it: cold water, and boil until soft; remove stones, obtain meat from stones and add to prunes. Then add sugar, cinnamon, boiling water, and simmer ten minutes Dilute cornstarch with enough cold water to pour easily, add to prune mixture and cook five minutes. Remove cinnamon, mold, then chill, and serve with cream. Cream Puffs. One cup boiling water, one-half cup melted butter, boiled together While boiling stir in one heaping cup of flour. As soon as it cools add four well-beaten eggs. Bake in greased gem pans in moderately hot oven about forty-five minutes. Cream for Filling One and onehalf pints milk heated to a boiling point in double boiler. Add one cup suar, two tablespoons cornstarch and two eggs beaten together. Cook until it thickens. You might flavor the cream with vanilla or lemon. Stale Bread Left-Overs. There is always great aste in bread as well. Stale bread can always be utilized. It may be dried out crushed to a powder for broading croquettes or veal chops or cutlets. Or else it may be soaked in milk and used for pudding. It is all these littlp economics which tend to reduce the cost of living and , make the business side of the kitchen a profitable Instead of an extravagant part of household management.

SPELLING STUCK THE JURY Point of Information They Wanted Involved No Great Legal Knowledge, if Judge Had It. Here Is one that was told at a tea given by Miss Geraldine Farrar, the singer, when one of the party referred to the judiciary and the peculiar cases that frequently come before the courts: "Some time ago there was a homicide case in a western court in which there was considerable doubt as to the guilt of the accused. The trial judge seemed to share the popular belief. M 'Gentlemen of the jury said he, in concluding his charge, 'if the evidence, in your minds, shows that pneumonia was the cause of the man's death, you cannot convict the prisoner.' "Whereat the Jury retired and in about ten minutes the constable returned and presented himself before the Judge. " 'Your honor,' he remarked, 'the gentlemen of the jury want some information.' " 'On what point of evidence?' asked the judge. " 'None, judge,' was the rejoinder of the constable. 'They want to know how to spell "pneumonia." ' " Philadelphia Telegraph.

As this procedure was not understood, and as Johnny looked too large for six ears, the conductor said. "I did not understand you. madam." Johnny grinned and spoke out proudly, "Don't you know that nine turned upside down is six?" The Whitewasher. Crawford What are the duties of a coroner?

No Cure for Cancer Yet. In his annual report Dr. E. F. Bashford, general superintendent of research in the laboratories of the Imperial cancer research fund, told the members of the society that during the past year there had been 12 claim to the discovery of a cure for cancer. All of these had been investigated and no justification for any one of these claims had been obtained. Doctor Baehford also said women were more liable to cancer than men. In England and Wales in 1910 the death rate from cancer was 856 per 1,000,000 for men and 1,070 for women. As the London Times says editorially in commenting upon this report: "The only reasonable expectation of curing cancer still rests upon its cook plete removal by the surgeon at the earliest possible time after It la diecovered."
