WOMAN’S PAGE. Written Filet Directions BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. AR EVANCGELINE o /AL <= s The woman who find it easier to follow written directions for filet crochet, than to take them directly from a printed pattern, can make her own directions from the picture if she will follow the rules given below. The work is extremely simple. Any woman can do it. Exact rules for taking off the rose and thistle design pictured today are also given. It will be noted that each quarter of ll’? design is identical, which simplifies the task, and 1t also exemplifies the method of work when lines are identical. Abbreviations should be used for the words as follows: Spaces are sp., blocks, bl.; stitches, chain, ch. The ‘words “repeat” an rn” are written in full. Stars indicate repeats, which are designated as “repeat from * to *,” or “from * to end of row.” ‘To take off directions, start one cor- ner of the pattern and write each stitch in a horizontal row as given, either in spaces or blocks. The latter are printed in solid black. It is ad- visable first to number each row in small figures at the end or beginning of each row. Then if an error occurs in any row you can immediately go over that row without having to com- pute which it is. Always count and set down at the top of the page the number of stitches in a horizontal row. ‘Unless the pattern is irregular in its outside outline each row must have precisely this number of stitches. They may be all blocks, all spaces, or & combination of spaces and blocks. Start to count every alternate row from the left to the right. So only will the design come out correctly. When a design is inclosed in a border of blocks finish each row with 3 ” It there is no border, and spaces are along the edges, write “ch. 3, turn.” These stitches are necessary as they form the beginning of stitches in the coming row. In order to follow lines quickly, lay @ ruler over the row just counted and write down the stitches in the next row. When all rows have been counted and written down as described, the pattern can be worked from the written directions. It is well to keep the print- ed design, as it is interesting to watch the design as the crocheting Wdtking directly from a printedpattern; the stitches (blocks and spaces) are croche as counted, instead of being written down. Many workers prefer this method, while others like to have the stitches set down. Directions for the rose and thistle design pictured today be set down in a few lines and w Put a star after the last written stitch before the vertical line dividing the horizontal rows, and write “repeat from star to beginning of row.” Do this to each NANCY PAGE Likes Glorified Bread Pudding. When Lois went to the bread box . She had had English mon- key, that entree made with bread, cheese, milk and eggs the day before, 80 that was out of the question. She had used every idea she had for toasted sandwiches. And now her query was ~—what next? She thumbed through the cook book and finally her eye lighted on bread row until the heavy horizontal line is reached. This comes at the row num- | bered 20. Start the next written row | numbered 21 with the words “repeat row 20 and each preceding row,to the beginning.” This finishes the design. The two halves of the design are iden- tical. Therefore, by crocheting the first half from the center to the start, | the design is perfected. ‘TueSday—Some recipes for cooking succulent vegetables. (Copyright, — . Sweetbreads a la King.

B-O- THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., MONDAY, A Sermon for Today BY REV. JONN R. GUNN, “For the bed is shorter than that & man can stretch himself on it, and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it."—Isalah, xxviii.20. | Amusing, but tragic, is the sacred cartoon drawn by the artist lsaiah of the ease-loving Ephraimites: bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it, and the covering too narrow to wrap himself in.” ‘Today, likewise, many fail in the quest for comfort, lying on uncomfort- able beds. There is the bed of self- indulgence. Luxurious furnishings and tial cars become the emblem of an ease-loving - age. But physical luxury will not satisfy souls born with spiritual g.;z’lncu which reveal a kinship with There is the bed of self-aggrandize- ment at the expense of others. Isalah's caricature fitted men who crushed the humble and oppressed the poor. Today self-aggrandizers vainly go on the same comfort quest. But a just God mocks their unholy attempt. The bed is too short and the covering oo narrow for peaceful Tepose. There is the uncomfortable bed of self-sufficiency. Money will not buy everything. Social registers will fail at the gate of Paradise. Those who ig- nore the spiritual element of life will sooner or later find themselves on a Testless couch. Another of these beds is self-righteous- ness. Many would form their own rules of conduct, making their own standards of ethics. As well might students be allowed to make their own muitiplica- tion tables. These tables do not admit of individual framing. Two times two are four everywhere. God's rules of righteousness are likewise universal. He who seeks rest elsewhere than in God's righteousness misses his quest by the diameter of worlds. So of all such beds. They fail to cover all man's needs. The only satis- fying comfort is found in the salvation of Him who sald, “Come unto me and ye shall find rest unto your souls.” MENU FOR A DAY, BREAKFAST.

T-H | an EASY IRONER an EASY WASHER Great Folks in Unguarded Moments Lord Brougham Takes a Nap BY J P. ONCE HE APPEARED RIDING IN A WHEELBARROW. Lord Brougham, the great lord chan- cellor of England, made his way to a foremost place in his coutnry’s counsels by his brains, but it was his wit and elever eccentricity that won him social success in a day when extravagant be- havior was an aid to introduction to high society in London. As a younk man he was, during one period, devoted to all kinds of osten- tatious luxury. He delighted to give grand dinners, when, imitating the an- clents, he perfumed his rooms, using so any rich and heavy odors that the atmosphere was suffocating. Guests would unceremoniously thrust up the windows to get air. He got safely past this period. which lasted only about eight months, but soon embarked on new follies. He took to smoking hookahs while taking his baths. One night, while intoxicated, he took to his hot bath and hookah. The result was that he fell asleep and was nearly drowned. Some one happened to look for him and found him with his mouth just out of the water, which was now cold. He gave up this practice at once. He attracted the most attention by the highly unusual wagers he made. He would bet that he would appear the race ground—where he knew all so- clety would see him—in the most bizarre ways. Once he appeared riding in a wheel- barrow. _On another occasion he rode in & coffin. Still another time he was| borne in a basket on a man’s shoulders. As he won all his bets, he soon found & lack of takers. But at that time his audacity had won him fame and ad- miration.

It is said that when he gave up the house, in 1834, when he retired from the chancellorship, he left it in & terrible condition. The bed rooms were | fithy, the furniture nearly all Tuined. and in the most unusual places the most unusual things were found hidden. For instance, kitchen candlesticks and black lead for the grates were dis- covered in the handsome satin cur- tains of the drawing room, Lord_Grey made a demand for dam- ages. Brougham insisted upon arbitra- tion and after & sum was decided upon, sent Grey a check £15 short of the amount, B ‘ Grey retyrned the check and Brougham then paid in full.

Jealousy, and com: petition breeds jealousy, is an ugly quality. Tt kills fove. It embitters soul of the child who labors under its evil spell, it kills joy. Better stay at the foot of the class than suffer jealousy. Try to teach children to play and work without an anxious, brooding eye on their mates. Teach them the joy of a good fight, & hard struggle, the effort to do one's best. To do that it is nee- essary that & child know success, Make that possible enotigh of the time o that he will not feel inferior to his com- panions, but do not press him to win always.

All of us share wi ver of joy or failure our fellows meet. is better to do so cheerfully. And never allow anybody to tease child so as to call out his jealousy, Teach him that he counts as he is. He is , or hetter, or best, in himself. Jealousy dwarfs the soul of its victim and renders him helpless. Put love in its place and the soul will expand.
