PAGE EIGHT THE BEMIDJ 1 DAILY PIONEER SATURDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 13, 1919 BEADED BAG EASY TO MAV Popular Convenience Any Woman Handy With Needle Can Pro- duce at Home. This bag is quite novel in shape and very easy to make if instructions are carefully followed. To make: Cut out two pieces of satin to shape of diagram 1 and one plece same shape as diagram 2, al- ways allowing sufficient satin for one- half inch turnings, the size of the bag to be according to purpose it is re-| quired for. Now cut out another plece shape of design 2, only in fine Home-Made Beaded Bag. black muslin without turnings; this place on wrong side of satin of same shape, and turn over and tack down turnings. The bag is lined with soft, silk moire or crepe-de-chine. Cut as in the satin two pieces of shape of dia- gram 1 and one piece shape of dia- gram No. 2, all with turnings. Join pleces of satin shape of dia- gram 1 together round edge, leaving top unsewn; repeat same with silk, turn out satin and press, but leave silk wrong side; this place inside satin and tack round top to keep it in place while gathering it. Take the lining for handle and turn in edges, and place wrong side to same of satin, and slip-stitch every- where except at bottom; place gath- ered part in between satin and lining, and regulate fullness. Beads of any kind and color may be used, jet or gold looking particularly well. Sew on at Intervals round panel on top of gathers, and work de- sign on front. The bottom is finished with a tassel mede of the same beads. DRESSING THE YOUNG GIRLS Problem Satisfactorily Solved by Use of Vaivets, Taffeta, Velveteen and Serge Fabrics. Velvet 18 much used in the develop- ment of suits and dresses for the young gir] this season. Sometimes plaid taffeta is combined with velvet or velveteen in g little frock, and again the dress {® emtirely of the velvet, trimmed possibly in heavy wool em- broidery in vividly contrasting colors. A smart little afternoon frock re- cently shown for a girl of twelve was of navy satin, made on Russian blouse lines and trimmed only with collar and .wide cuffs of embroidered white georgette. For school wear, the regulation dress of navy serge vies for favor with the outfit consisting of separate skirt of plaid or plain worsted to be worn with ‘a middy or smock of white jean, or with a frilly blouse of Swiss, lawn, or crepe de chine. One unusual outfit for a little girl, recently shown, consisted of frock, cape, and tam-o-shanter of Scotch plaid. The frock was-cut low in the neck and wae sleeveless. With it was worn a white, long sleeved blouse. FRINGE AS DRESS TRIMMING Decoration Promises to Be Feature of Winter Frock—Jet Is Prime Favorite. Style authorities continue to flirt with fringe in the general lineup of dress trimmings. Many smart winter frocks will feature this type of decora- | tion and the greatest possible variety of fringes is shown." Jet is a prime favorite both for daytime and evening dress trimming. Silk fringes of all sorts are used, and one of the very new fancies is for fringe made of very narrow ribbon. The ribbon may be satin, faille or velvet, according to choice, and it may be as wide or as narrow as the individual taste dic- tates. Ribbon fringe may be bought | by the yard at the dress trimming counters in most of the big shops, but making it at home of ribbon that ex- actly matches the dress it is to trim is a very simple matter. Make Your Own Dress Trimmings. Dress trimmings that are economical but pretty and up to the minute in style can be made at home by any woman who wants smart but inexpen- sive trimming for her dress. Good color combinations and rather coarse embroidery stitches compose many of the newest and most effective trim- mings. Some suggestions for the home needlewoman are given: Long ‘and short stitch done with embroidery silk sets off a- silk .dress that is TOLEDO FOLK RIDE IN BUSES OR WALK NOWADAYS Usderwood Andarwond \ Citizens of Toledo, 0., either walk or ride in buses at 10 to 25 cents a ride these days, for they have no street car service. the state.

Andrew’s night make their way for mischief into every house whose doors and windows are not anointed with garlic, the scent of that plant belng intolerable to the ghostly nostrils. The Moroi are the spirits of unbaptized babes, crying for their mothers’ breasts and not to be appeased save by sprinkling their graves with holy water for seven years. Out of His Reach.
