j Darning Materials
Some strips of ribbon thin card
board and narrow lace ribbon are the

the length should be nine inches an
inch and of half extra being allowed
for every extra paper
The first thing to do is to miter one
end and make an inch hem at the
other with silk of the same shade
used for stitching
Now fold a third of the silk up as
suggested by the diagram and stitch
at intervals to form pockets for the
papers of needles
The top of the ribbon is now folded
over and pressed with a fairly hot
iron When the needles have been
put In the case can be folded up the
ribbon cut into six lengths and sewn
on as fasteners and tied In pretty
bows
The case for darning materials is
so fashioned that the flap takes the
needles and the pockets and casings
hold the cards and skeins of mending
wool
Linen is the best material to use
and cannot be beaten for hard wear
while no more suitable binding can be
found than woolen braid Two pieces
of the linen measuring eight inches
PLANS AN IDEAL SICKROOM
All Modern Hygienic Requirements
Are Observed In Young Wom
ans New House
When a house Is to be built the fam
ily devotes months of thought to plan
ning the billiard room the music room
and all sorts of hat and shoe closets
but seldom do we hear of a house no
matter how pretentious with a room
specially planned for sickness The
result of this neglect is that many
a mild case which could just as well
be cared for at home by a competent
nurse if she has the proper facilities
has to be sent to the hospitaL A far
seeing young woman who Is at pres
ent superintending the erection of a
house has planned a sickroom on the
third floor This room Is to be a spa
cious place with southern exposure
thus insuring good ventilation and
plenty of sunshine It will have pol
ished floors and walls of hard plaster
tinted or painted a soft green which
Is restful to the eyes and this finish
will be such as to permit a thorough
washing of the walls after an infec
tious disease The corners will all
be rounded so as to provide no hid
ing places for germs The room will
naturally be furnished in a simple
sanitary way There will be an Iron
bed with a similar cot for the nurse
a white dresser a white enamel table
and two or three white chairs Pic
tures and draperies will be banned
and there will be no unnecessaries
whatever Adjoining the room will be
a bathroom and in an adjacent closet
the doctor and nurse will be able to
find all sorts of pitchers jars basins
measuring glasses thermometers hot
water bags bandages gauze plain
towels green soap and disinfectants
hoops as Gifts
Among the new -wedding presents
are embroidery hoops the outer one
of silver the inner one of satin wood
These make unique gifts to the girl
-who does any kind of embroidery dur
ing the leisure summer hours

by six are first cut and neatly
stitched together Two pieces are the
only other lengths required one
measuring six inches in length and
four In depth the other measuring
five inches by four
The larger of these two pieces is
stitched to the foundation along the
bottom and up the sides as far as it
reaches to form pockets for the cards
of darning wool and is divided In
the middle with a row of feather
stitching
The other piece Is folded and
creased down and stitched at the
creases and two ends so as to form
slots for the skeins of wool to be
slipped through The piece of linen
which forms a flap and folds over the
case can be padded with a little cotton-wool
and six darning needles
stuck through Dress fasteners one
at each end of the flap are used to
keep the casoshut
A very pretty bag for thimbles can
be made from odd pieces of silk and
some roundB of cardboard Two oi
the latter of the size of a two shilling
piece are cut and covered with round
of silk Ribbon or a strip of sllfc
measuring about three inches it
length and five In width is next re
quired and hemmed at both ends Th
wide sides are whipped with strong
silk and sewn round the covered card
board one at each end care being
taken that the hemmed sides overlap
each other a tiny piece Buttons and
loops sewn along the hem close tb
little case when the thimbles hav
been placed inside
If It is necessary to make the case
more elaborate this is easily accom
plished by the addition of flowers or a
conventional design worked in em
broidery silks before the silk is sewn
to the rounds of cardboard at the
ends and instead of buttons and loops
strips of ribbon can be used and tied
Into little bows
The case suggested mide on a mucb
larrer scale does admirably for odd
spools of silk or cotton and will keep
them from becoming dirty and entan
gled
Scarfs Match Parasol
Many of those fascinating sun
shades are matched by filmy scarfs A
parasol of black chantijly over whit
chiffon for instance has a scarf ol
chantiily with touches of rose em
broidery to match a similar decoration
which borders the mechlin lace frills
with which the parasol Is finished
A parasol of white peau de soie made
over a gilded frame with a handle of
ivory and gilt has a scarf of white
chiffon with the ends gathered Into
clusters of white ribbon roses A
purple parasol with a lining of shirred
white chiffon and a carved ivory han
dle has a wrap of shaded purple lav
ender and white chiffon
Soft Cotton for Dresses
The great vogue of soft materials
transparencies etc through the win
ter has brought about the use of cot
ton materials without starch such ai
voile marquisette and mercerized bat
iste for summer lingerie
The really smart lingerie dresses
and waists of 1911 will launder with
out starch
CREPE DE CHINE WiST
This dainty waist Is of pink crepe dv
chine elaborately trimmed with i
cord embroidery and a heavy silk em
broidery
The girdle Is of black satin fast

The Skirts of This Season
Though tue lines of the new skirts
are still scant the extremo tightness
to which we have become accustomed
is no longer the thing So cleverly have
the tailors concealed the plaits that
it is only until the skirt Is worn does
one see the advantage of the new
modes The swinging panel is thl
most popular method of using tha
plait while many of the new skirts
are also finished with inverted plaits
at the sides to give grace and ease
while walking
The two piece skirt is a new arrival
this season and it is chic indeed It
is cut with only front and back gore
buttoning at either side This model
is popular for the short outing skirt
In the dressy models one still sees
the tunic This is a graceful fash
ion which bids fair to remain with us
for some time to come

hydrates starches The two must
be mixed Fats to a more or less ex
tent can be found In every article
of food

health these warm days and preven
tion is better than cure with chickens
seeing that the best cure for a sick
fowl is death
If the hens are confined to a small
yard a portion of the yard sould be

Penal Code Sensible and Most Effec

ish Faults
Public opinion sways the child
horld Sometimes this opinion is creat
ed by what an Intelligent child has
learned through older people some
times it comes of the childrens own
reasoning And the child who falls
In the etiquette demanded from him
by his own world is punished in the
surest and severest way Public opin
ion is against him or his misdeed he
must remain on the outside until be
has proved his repentance There
may be a suggestion for older people
in this method of treating offenders
in their midst Punishment by the
familys ostracism may bring a rude
or indifferent mannered little person
to terms sooner than anything else
Emerson had a little daughter El

punished in the way that you or 1

told that something very dreadful had
happened in their family Ellen had
told a lie They must not romp or

FUL CURE OF PSORIASIS
I have been afflicted for twenty
years with an obstinate skin disease
called by some M Ds psoriasis and
others leprosy commencing on my
scalp and in spite of all I could do
with the help of the most skilful doc
tors it slowly but surely extended un
til a year ago this winter it covered
my entire person in the form of dry
scales For the last three years I have
been unable to do any labor and
suffering intensely all the time Every
morning there would be nearly a dust-
panful of scales taken from the sheet
on my bed some of them half as large
as the envelope containing this letter
In the latter part of winter my skin
commenced cracking open I tried
everything almost that could he
thought of without any relief The
12th of June I started West in hopes
I could reach the Hot Springs I
reached Detroit and was so low I
thought I should have to go to the
hospital but finally got as far as Lan
sing Mich where I had a sister liv
ing One Dr treated me about
two weeks but did me no good All
thought I had but a short time to live
I earnestly prayed to die Cracked
through the skin all over my back
across my ribs arms hands limbs
feet badly swollen toe nails came off
finger nails dead and hard as a bone
hair dead dry and lifeless as old
straw O my God how I did suffer
My sister wouldnt give up said
We will try Cuticura Some was ap
plied to one hand and arm Eureka
there was relief stopped the terrible
burning sensation from the word go
They immediately got Cuticura Re
