Sgarf for New BY MARY Here is a scarf that you will want to maketo wear with your new evening dress or to give away less than three months hencefor Christmas. It is made of an oplong of georgette erepe or of chiffon--the size may suit yourself. Three-quarters of a yard wide, a yard and a half long, perhaps. Make it any size that suits your idea of what an evening scarf should be. The e founda! or chiffon—may be in light color. White, light gray, light pink or blue, or beige. Any of these shades or other My Neighbor Says: On entering the hall of your home, & visitor gets her first im- pression of the interior of your home.

If you are wearing it with a green frock, for instance, choose & very light green foundation and aye it with dark- er of green. light rose cn pink are good. On beige, shades of brown look well. Work out an attractive color scheme with ref- erence to the dress the scarf is to be worn with. Now dissolve some dye to make a light tone of the color you want. Gather the scarf in the hand in a fairly even band from end to end, about three inches in from each edge, and tie with two-inch-wide strips of coarse cctton cloth—an old sheet is excellent. At reg- ular intervals make three other bands by tying the material firmly. Now tip the scarf in the light dve. the moisture and let dry. Remove the middle tying rag and din again in a deeper tone of dye. Remove the two :de tying rags and dip in still deeper lye. rags. This will give you four shades— the strips in three shades and the foundation in another. You should then have the edge finished with machine picot and should the scarf carefully. You may have the picot edge put on before dyeing if you wish. Home in Good Taste BY SARA NILAND. Just how to trim chintz curtains and have them a little bit different from those which are usually trimmed with bands, ruffies or pleatings is sometimes a puzzle to the home furnisher, and she sets about to contrive an unusual effect. In the illustration is shown a window treatment which has cretonne draperies (which could also be chintz if desired) trimmed with bands of plain chintz, but in & very different manner from the ordinary flat band. Appliqued onto the flat band is a band with a point:d edge, with the points toward the outer edge of the curtain, the other edge of this band being ;t:n-;‘ht and even with the larger flat ground cretonne which has a pattern in which lime green and lilac are prom- inent, therefore these two shades were used for the trimming. The wide band is of the lime green and the pointed band is of the lilac. ‘The walls of this room are peach and the furniture lime green, lilac being used for the bedspread and furniture covering.

October 6, 1833, —In preparing fo sell to the Government Cool Spring, or, as it is sometimes known, Large Spring, John Howard Smith, it was learned to- day, will also convey the rights to the water arising on a farm which he ob- tained only a few days ago from Rich- ard Smith and Thomas Peter for the sum of $350. Negotiations for the sale of this water supply to the Government are confi- | deptly expected to be concluded before the end of next month, now that Mr. Smith has acquired the portion of the farm in guestion, thus protectig the sources of the water, which flows in a large stream. . The farm lies somewhat to the north- west of the Capitol and the stream flows in the general direction of the Capitol. Some persons have considered it feasible to pump the water from the nearest point to the Capitol for the use of Congress, and this consideration has doubtless entered into the purchase. | “Three springs on the farm of John S. Smith, in the same vicinity. have been found to furnish 7, 3 and 41, gal- lons of water per minute. 'These em- brace the principal headwaters of Tiber Creek, which forms a part of a tidal estuary of the Potomac River.a little distance west of the Capitol, after the water has come down over the hills to the north. | 1t has been proposed that the Gov- ernment acquire all of this water su ply and construct a reservoic, to receive | the water from these thrae and other nearby springs, about a mile from the | Capitol, at Logan’s pond, or the mill, near M street north. Anxious that the | Federal Government use the water on his farm, Mr. Smith has claimed it can | get a yield of 90 gallons per minute from the springs in the neighborhood Mr. Smith at this time specifically propeses to sell to the Government a | spring “known as Cool Spring, or Large | Spring, flowing, or rising out of his farm north of or near the boundary of the City of Washington, which farm he obtained from Richard Smith and Thomas - Peter by deed dated October 2, 1833.” This would give the Government rights to the spring and the wall around it. The sale seems a certainty. Fresh Ham Roast. ‘This may be roasted-with the bone in it or without. If with the bone, fill the cavity with a bread and onion dressing. Place the fresh ham in a roasting pan and dredge with flour and salt and pepper. Add one-fourth cup- ful of hot water and sear in a hot oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to moderate, allowing 30 minutes per pound after the first hour, add two cupfuls of sweet cider and baste the meat with it at intervals. If this is cooked away at the end of the second hour add anether two cupfuls of the cider, and when the meat is done make a sauce by thickening with flour. Serve with the meat. | Prices realized on Swift & Company sales of carcass beef in Washington. D. C., for week ending Saturday.
