OMA Home Methods in Use of Applique BY MARY Applique work seems so simple that you may feel that you do not need any professional advice on the subject. But there is always a right way as well as & good-enough way to do everything, and so we have asked our dressmaker LITTLE GIRL'S DRESS OF WHITE COTTON VOILE IS TRIMMED WITH SQUARE APPLIQUES AND BANDS OF BLUE MATERIAL. | | friends to glve us & word or two of ad- | vice about the making and applying of appliques. “The home dressmaker should make use of the simplest forms in doing ap- plique work,” we were reminded, “be-| cause these simple forms are often the | most effective and may easily be put on evenly—and this is absolutely essen- tial if you want the work to look pro- fessional, So_tell the amateur to use | squares, circles or simple diamond shapes. She will have no trouble in cut- ting out the patterns, and will find many effective ways of using them.” The pattern, we are told, should al- ways be cut an eighth of an inch larger on all sides than the desired size of the finished applique. Be careful not to stretch or draw the material and baste in the edge very carefully. and then press on the wrong side before putting on _the material. The most effective way of sewing Today in Washington History BY DONALD A. CRAIG, September 19, 1861.—The hotels of Washington City are sgain swarming nightly with volunteer officers of the Union Army, in spite of Gen. McClel- lan’s general orders to the . contrary. The attention of the provost marshal, | Gen. Porter, was called today to this| condition, prevailing espeeially in the | halls of the local hotels from 8 until 11 o'clock each night. It has been suggested that unless Gen. McClelian’s order is obeyed miore liter ally and the officers. remain with their men, instead of seeking recreation | throughout the city, squads will be sent | out by the provost marshal every hour. and arrests of offending officers will be made. 3 Officers. on leave of absence will not be disturbed, but it is rumored that steps will be taken to bring charges against any general or Tegimental of- ficer wro grants “leave” to subordinate officers, to be spent in hanging around Washington bar rooms and hotel Joun; lace: 4 & foCiellan 1s striving to make & real Army from the thousands of vol- unteer soldiers who are flocking into the city, and who have, for the most part, never had an opportunity to fearn the meaning of military discipline Prince de Salm, the distinguished Prussian cavalry officer who recently tendered his services to the Govern- ment, has been appointed colonel of Young's Cavalry Regiment, now called the James Cameron Cavalry, Mr. Young, it will be remembered, was never ‘commissioned.

ON by, | - -FEATURES, Last Days of Famous Statesmen “Independence Forever,” the Deathbed Toast of John Adams. BY J. P. GLASS. John Adams had lived to the age of 91, and to the great experience of know= ing himself a former- President of the United States, the father of another President. But in the Spring of 1826, it was apparent to his relatives and friends at Quincy, Mass, that he was gtowing much feebler, It was the fiftieth year of the coun- | try’s independence and just as, at Monti- cello, in Virginia, the family of Thomas Jefferson wondered if he would survive until July 4, every one at Quiney hoped | | anxiously for the continued existence of | Mr. Adams ! Jefferson _had written the Declaration of Independence, but Adams, more than any one else, had been instrumental in its adoption. ' It was an inspiring thought that these two sponsors of independence might remain to celebrate the first half century of its existence. At Quincy it was at first believed that Mr. Adams would be able to take part in the local celebration. But as July approached it was apparent that he would_be too weak. On Friday, June 30, the person chosen to be the orator of the day walked | down to the home of Mr. Adams, | “As you will be unable to attend the celebration on -July 4,” he saild, “the | committze in charge hope that you will | give us a toast to be presented as com- | ing_from you." | ""The eves of the nonogenarian 1it up. He nodded his head. | “I will give you,” he said, “ Independ- | ence Forever!” | It is to be presumed that the visitor, | like many another Fourth of July orator, | placed more stress upon the volume of | words than their content. “will you not add something?” he queried. “Not a word,” said Mr. Adams. In- deed, those two words contained the |essence of his life, his character and | his work. On the morning of July 4, Mr. Adams still lived, but his breathing was difficuit. His physician, Dr. Holbrook, predicted he would not survive sunset. The exercises at Quincy were com- pleted. The banquet progressed and the -speaker of the day presented the -dying man’s toast. “Independence for- ever!” Shouts rent the air, but even 85 they reverberated, the soul of John Adams passed on. News of his death Tedched the hall just as the company was leaving. In his final hour, Mr. Adams’ thoughts turned to Jefferson, his great fellow worker in the. cause of freedom. The last words those at his bedside heard were: “Thomas Jefferson still survives.” But this was a mistake. He had out- lasted the Virginian by several nours. The singular coincidence of the death f Jefferson and Adams on the fiftieth Fourth,” sent an emotional wave over the United States greater and that caus- |ed by any public event. This emotion | was not so much of sadiness as of glory in two splendid, ripe careers. Kidney Stew. With & sharp knife cut one beet kidney into slices one-fourth inch in | thickness. Next séparate the meat from gristle and fat, theh cut the meat into very small pieces. Cover with cold | water, press the cut meat to squeeze | out the blood, then drain. Repeat the same process, then cover again with cold water and soak for two hours. Drain, cover with six cupfuls of boil- ing water, and simmer gently for one and one-half hours, or until the kidney is, tender and there are about three | cupfuls of liquid left. Set aside and | cool. Meanwhile,. combine four table~ | speontuls of ‘flour with enough of the cooled liquid to make a thin paste. Reheat the kidney mixture and add the flour paste gradually until the stew is the consistency of cream. Add one and one-half teaspoonfuls of salt, a little pepper and paprika, fhree tablespoon- uls of butter and bne d-cooked egg, minced coarsely with:a fork. Serve hot on toast or by itself with hash browned |or French fried potatoes. Date and Cheese Fil;ing. One-half package sandwich spread, | 8 to 8 dates, 2 tablespoons boiled dress- ing.
