They Are Light and Flexible, a Most Excellent Thing In Millinery--Any One Who Has Made Macrame Can Easily Master the Art. If you wish to be in the swim this summer you must master the dainty art of making raffia lace hats. You will then have the pleasure of bestowthe gracious favor of teaching oththe cunning art, and she who can do this is always a social favorite. Raffia lace hats are the choicest things in headgear that ingenuity has ever devised out of a vegetable fiber that is, from ant sort of straw--and as the labor of making them restricts the practice of the art only a few are offor sale, prices are kept very high, and the style remains exclusive. The hats are so attractive that their possession is coveted the moment femieyes rest upon the charming creaMoreover, they are not difficult to make. A great charm of all raffia hats, whether braid or lace, is their lightand flexibility. They are probably

THE CROWN IN PROCESS OF MAKING. the lightest hats worn. A pound of the fiber will make three or four braided hats or a half dozen lace ones. The fine braid hats, woven in four or six strands and sewed with the fiber, are very satisfactory either for shopand traveling or for shade hats, while the lace ones are extremely smart and elegant or picturesque, according to their pattern, shape, style of trimming and also, an important facthe amount of labor put into their making, for there are exquisitely fine lace hats and others. Any one who has ever made macrame lace--that cord abomination that prein the days of millinery house decoration--can easily master the art of raffia lace hat making, for the knots and network are copied and the patadapted from it. The hat is begun in the center of the crown. Select eight long, even, well matched strands of raffia, take the kinks out by pulling them over the thumb nail or a dull bladed paper cutdouble seven of the strands and tie them around the middle of the eighth strand by drawing the ends through the loop made by doubling.

Slip the knots as closely together as possible, then tie the ends of the eighth, or foundation, strand firmly, making as small a ring as you can.

HAT WITH RAISED CROWN. These strands form the eight midribs of the starlike pattern, as seen in the illustration of an unfinished hat. Upon every one, holding the doubled strands together, seven long fibers are knotted in a double knot. With these strands the whole pattern is developed. Beyond the center star of the crown the patterns are varied, according to the taste and ingenuity of the worker. Deftness of touch and manipulation, together with a natural love for painsimpart a beauty to the work that immediately distinguishes it from its fellows.

When You go Visiting. Do not stay too long. It is a great thing to break into the life of any fameven for a few days. Pay no attention to requests to stay longer, however sincere they seem. Set a time to go when you arrive and stick to it. Conform absolutely to the household arrangements, especially as to the hours of rising, going to meals and retiring. Be ready in ample time for drives or excursions. Carry with you all requisite toilet supplies, that you may not be obliged to mortify your hostess by pointing out possible deficiencies in the room you occupy, such as a clothesbrusb, the article most commonly lacking. It is almost always wise in the middie of your visit to go off somewhere by yourself for a day, to rest your entertainers.

If you have ever tried to make A balky horse get up and shake His hoofs and trot off down the way If you have ever tried, I say, Right out upon the public pike Why, then you know what trouble' like And six or eight kinds of distress Without me telling you, I guess. Bill Jones sat in his shaky cart And waited for the horse to start. Bill was a patient man, and thus He smoked his pipe and didn't cuss, But sat at ease and quite resigned Until the horse should change his mind, And all the neighbors gathered round And offered him advice profound. "Get some old leaves," said Sleepy Jim, "And build a fire under him. Then when the flames begin to smart He'll think it's up to him to start. I knew a man up on the crick Who tried it and pronounced it slick. That horse he shot off like Sam Patch. Say, try it, Bill. Who has a match?" Tom Burns said Jim had lots to learn, He 'lowed the horse would stand and burn. He says: "I know a better way.

Jest go and get a bunch of hay, And when he takes a bite or so The balking he'll forgit and go. And If there ain't no hay in sight A peck of oats will do all right." Joe Hall suggested: "Twist his tail. That works when other methods fail." And several other rubber necks Said they would just let out his checks. Says Bill, a twinkle in his eye: "I'm much obliged, friends, but good by. I was jest waiting fer my pap. Get in, dad. So long, boys. Gitap!
