"VBdaaTaadBMaaBBr ai TaWaY f TJ""C Two Useful Coats THE COAT Is an Inverness, and could be made in cloth, serge or tweed, lined or not, as preferred. It Is very plainly made, having only stitching as a finish at the edges. The fronts are double-breasted; buttons covered in the material form the fas tenings. Toque ol black pan. trimmed with a rosette ct gold tissue, and two pheas ants' feathers. Materials required: Four and one half yards -IS inches wide, sis buttons, four yards ot silk for lining the waist TO MATCH CLOTH DRESS This simple bodice Is made with two tucks on eac'i shoulder, and lightly braided at the edges. The prettily shaped yoke is of coarse filet net to match color of material; it is braided at the edges. Cuffs are made of the net set to material bands at the elbow, to which the sleeve is gathered. But tons and braid loops form further trimming. Materials required: IV yard cloth 48 inches wide, one dozen buttons, one dozen yards braid. DESIGNED FOR TOILET TABLE Pincushion of the Latest Design Formed of Mattress-Shaprd Cush ions Prettily Decorated. A pincushion that is dainty yet ser viceable is one of the mattress-shaped cushions four an a half inches wide by six inches long. This is stuffed with wool or bran and covered with satin, or satine. if cost is an item. The outer cover is made from two pieces of heavy linen with a narrow hemstitched hem running entirely around it. The pieces finished fit eas ily on the top and bottom of the cushion. The inner parts of the linen are then decorated with tiny squares of filet or Cluny lace, with a design of leaves and scrolls in satin stitch and eyelet embroidery spreading around each bit of lace. The section intended for the top has a more elaborate design than the bottom piece. The upper and lower section are joined by lace insertion just the width of the sides of the pincushion. This is overcast to the edges all around. One end is left open to slip in the A New Bracelet A new bracelet which is attracting I considerable attention among women is a bant of gold from a half-inch to an inch in width It is either heavily en graved or bears a pattern in black or colored caamcl. As a matter of fact, the bracelet is not new. being similar to a style worn many years ago by our grandparents. In keeping ribbons, do not place odds and end: in an indiscriminate mass in a box. Have either different boxes or envelopes for the different colors, and they will be compact and easily managed. Plaited Ruffles. The lingerie ruffle on the last French petticoats and on the pantalon combi nations re nc longer invariably gath ered to the beading which joins them to the garment Plaits frequently are substituted for the old gathers. They are laid regular ly or in buccb plaits and, again, in pairs; and since the plaits are very shallow the fiounca requires only the isuai amount of material cr a very ittle more. The material is never measured three times round the space. fcv v ' a twflf' Sal A f f On the right we show a very useful motor coat, made in heavy blanket serge, with a panel down both back and front, set on with a wide wrapped scam; the fastening is at the left side of front The collar is made so that it can turn up or down, and the sleeves are set to wide turn-back cuffs, so pop ular just now Motor bennet of gauged silk to match color of coat. .Materials required: Six yards 4G inches wide, one dozen buttons, three yards Viyella for lining to waist cushion and is lightly overcast when it is in place, or can be joined by tiny buttonholed loops on one edge and lace button on the lower side of the cover acriss one end. Such a cushion is more distinctive than the covers that lace on, yet wash es almost as easily. The insertion at the sides should match the lace inset at top and bottom. MAKES DAINTY HAT BRUSH One with Plain Back, Without Orna mentation, Best to be Fitted with French Louis Cover. For one of the daintiest hat brushes you can imngine. select a plain back of Irreproachable shape and no orna mentation whatever, and with good white bristles. Before covering the wooden back It way be very lightly rubbed with a fine sandpaper, to roughen the surface so that the glue will hold. iCow for the French Louis cover. This is made of corded silk of a deep cream, embroidered slightly with rib ton work in an oblong medallion de ig. The silk is so cut as to entirely co7?r the wooden back except on the bristle side, and when the paste is ap plied to the silk care should be taken that it docs not touch that part be neath the ribbon medallion, nor the top of the brush, but only, along the edge of the silk. Do not turn in the edge, but after the glue is dry, paste over it a narrow gold lace galloon. To- be as French as possible in ef fect, the creamy tone of the silk shculd be soft and old. the rococo em bro'dery of flowers should be soft in torn; and the galloon of a more bronze colr.riug. Fringe on Frocks. Tijy cotton fringes in cream or whitu are to be used upon some of the novelty cottons and linens for sumiLer frocks. They are those iden tical ones that come for bedroom up holstcy. The finest qualities among them are quite oelicate enough o use on linen scrims and hopsackingj. Some of the fringe- measuring but a scant inch in depth is woven of white and bhif cotton in a pattern which runs alo.ig the gimo which holds It in place. In others, the fringe re mains uncut, each thread being a loop. The French have u&ed tlitfse fringes for several seasons; just as they have used the tsny silk quality on chiffon and white radium silk. Veil Novelty. Have you seen some of the new veils that are being worn with the smart cavalier hats? They may easily be called freakish, as the meshes of filet net have huge flowers and butter flies in self colors. Thost of black are best style, though there is a new tan ei! with big conventiomj figures that is liked by the unconservjttive. A Simple Table Center. Russian crash is used in its rough est state for the library table center Just a square or circle is drawn jpon the big piece of material, and thei an other nearly a quarter of an inch in side of the first. This line is padded, anu n buttonholed with coarse linan floss : -ome rich color. Xoti.i : more, except to cut it out; no othe: -ra of decoration; just this line of n buttonholing; but when done in flaue color or a rich old blue it will be well worth the little time it occupied in making. Fur Hatpins Now. It seemed that French ingenuity had devised every sort of hatpin that could possibly be thought of; but now a new kind makes its appearance. This is the hatpin tipped with a pert little animal head of fur.. Tiny fox faces make these hatpins very attractive and they are used not only on the fur turbans, but on all hats trimmed with fur. Now also are monogram hatpins carved from wood and highly var nished and polished, when the carving has been completed. PORTABLE MACHINE FOR BORING POST HOLES Two Men and an Outfit Will Accomplish Work Gang of m. Dozen Men. Wltnout Usual Back Breaking Labor. HbbHKbOVHt aBaaaaaW?C55nS2iiSaa Machine Bores Post Holt The Interesting post-hole boring out fit shown in this illustration will make a hole uniform in size at top and bottom and of any depth to six feet. It consists of a boring machine, mounted on a truck in such a way that it can be wo?ked at either side or bark of the truck. The holes are made by a large auger, or chisel bit. operated by a gear working in a toothed shaft, which furnishes the tneana for raising or lowering it. The power is applied by two friction clutches, which permits this raising or kiHering of the auger without re versing its motion. The engine and gasoline tank are placed on the front part of the ma chine, in this way providing sufficient weight to balance the other end. and the iower is transmitted from the engin to the drive pulley by means of a belt The machine will dig holes In any kind of soil onto which the truck can be driven, cutting read ily tb-ough hardpan. shale and soft sands"one. Two men are required to operals it. The machine illustrated is provided with -a ten-horse-power engine and weighty about 2.500 pounds.

JNHf a STUDDING It is not a difficult problem to con struct hollow walls of concrete so the Inner air space is large enough to per mit of comfortable workhj. The ac companying design shows jow a wall may be readily built of tw& walls each three inches thick and at. air space between them of ten inch. The only trick is to get out the planic of the in ner form, and this is readily done when the inner studding of two by six inchs is beveled so that it may readily be twisted to loosen the pranking. It should not be struck but gently and evenly twisted, when it v.ill release the planking. The ties across the wall are best made of vitr.'ed paving brick, if they can be gotUa 12 or 14 inches long; if they can no", be had of that length the inner foi-j may be narrower. Wires which should be galvanized hold the outer studding together; these wires are cut and remain imbedded in the wall. If no paving b;ck are to be had good hand-burned -irain tiles may make the connection between the two walls, or short pieces m; iron rods, or even very heavy galvarcfed wires, say about Xo. 1 size, cut ani the ends bent over. Such a wall is uilt up a few feet at a time and alloved to set and harden somewhat before the in ner forms ure taken out and raised up. It will prove very coM-resistant and damp-resistant. The Isner sur face will be p'astered; the cuter sur face may be simply roughened a little with a tool made for that purpose or washed with the nroner acid to make it rough and of uniform surface, or it may also be plastered, though this SKUNK FARMING IS PROFITABLE Fairly Low Fence, witb Plank Under Bottom, Will Keep Tlietn in Enclosure Eat Almost Anything. My brother kept several skunks over one summer in order to learn their habits and possibly to grow some for their fur. Everything went well until he care lessly left a board leaning against tho fence from the inside and tbe skunks no sooner discovered this than they climbed up and dropped down from the top of tbe fence to the outside. A fairly low fence will inclose them if nothing is left leaning against it and a plank is put flat just under the ground clear around the fence. When the skunks undertake to dig out of the pen they go close to the of gine, is also on the market Two men and one machine will accomplish the work of a gang of a dozen men. with out the usual amount of back-breaking labor.

Midwinter gardening of vegetables is difficult and generally unsatisfac tory from a financial standpoint. Most of the money made In growing vege tables under glass is jjefoTe January 1 and after March 1. During January and February the fu-ol bill Is heavy, there is little sunshine, the leather is dark and cloudy much nt the time, the days arc short and p:ant frowth Is necessarily slow.

Skunks will eat scraps of bread, meat or almost any roljje from the table. They will also feit on almost any dead carcasses and vill do well in confinement and soo;i become quite tame. They 5ill not cause disagreeable odors if dogs are kept ctray and the one who cares for them is careful not to excite them. They may be kept at a profit, but I think there are many discourage ments which the keeper Id likely to meet with before they will yield much profit. Chickens by Natural Process. Most farmers raise chickens by the natural process, and that is all right so long as you do not care to raise more than, say, one hundred chickens; but when you get up into large num bers incubators are necessary. Fatal Course A matron who was visiting her for mer home city, and was under foil headway with the seemingly endless string of questions usual in such a case. "And your stater's daughter Violetr "Violet is married," the friend re plied. "Indeed! My!' How time does ly. Happily married. I trust?" "Ob. dear, no! My sister always hu mored her. you know," was the re sponse, "and the poor child was per mitted to marry the man she was In .ove with!" Sunday Magazine of tho Cleveland Leader. Meaning of Cemetery. It is not correct to say that "ceme tery" means the "city of the dead." The word is from the Greek "Koime terion." meaning sleeping place, not the place of the dead. There is nothing in the thinking that it was originally intended to convey the idea that the departed were really dead any more than there Is in tbe old Hebrew term for cemetery "Bethaim" the house of the living.
