Meets With Mrs. Sims. The Baptist married ladies of Mrs. L. J. Sims' Sunday school class will have their class meeting at the home of Mrs. L. J. Sims, Peachtree street, on Tuesday afternoon at 3 o'clock. The meeting was to have been on Friday afternoon, but as the Chau- taugqua will be in session at that time, Mrs. Sims has arranged to have them meet Tuesday afternoon at 3 o'clock. All ladies are most cordially in- vited, and it is hoped that a large crowd will attend this meeting. L] . . Progressive Epworth League. The following is from Miss Grace Townsend's note to the Tampa Tri- bane: There is a very prozressive Ep- worth League in Lakeland, and from the Lakeland News it is seen that these eMthodist workers have a read- ing circle. It meets at the homes ol jmembers and after some choice lit- erary thoughts brought out for the intellectnal profit of the Leaguers, {the ave a lunch and a social time. { Why not has il ¢ cireles among the Endeavorers .also imitate these Lakeland young people by giving the editor of their “home paper” a chance to tell what they are doing? . . . Silver Tea Wednesday Evening. Valentine Day is approaching and this time-honored festival will be delightfully celebrated by the ladies of the Guild of All Saints Episcopal church, who will give a Silver Tea that evenin .t the home of Mrs. Os- car M. Eaton orner of Massachusetts avenue and « ige street, This spacious home will be deco- rated with hearts and other symbols of the occasion, and a very interest- ing program will be rendered. The public is cordially invited to attend and especially are the strangers in- vited. All will be cordially welcom- ed and will be entertained most d lightfully. . . - A Happy Home. A man who has made a happy matter what he has not done in the way of achieving wealth and honor; if he has done that hLe is a grand suc- cess. If he has not done that, and it is his own fault, though he be the highest in the land, he is_a mo:t pitiable failure. We wonder how many men in a mad pursuit of gold, which characterizes the age, realize that there is no fortune which can be left to their families as great as the memory of a happy home. Alarge audience will no doubt be "I present this evening at the llerron which he will deliver for the benefit, Dr. Piner, since leaving Lakeland, | DRAPING THE WINDOW' 1y 0,5 pHoTocRAPHS NEED NOT 3E CONSIDERZD MUCH O A PROBLEM. JSo Many Materials to Select From That the Task Is Now Compara- tively Easy—Some Conven. tional Designs, To drape windows artistically and not exclude any of the very necessary [ isht often becomes a serious prob- | lem. So many inexpensive yet exceed- v attractive materials are dis- | ed that the task beconics com- paratively easy. For the nursery windows there are wny appropriate designs, depicting enes froim N wnd, 1, from " crash, t piccees form the sidese 6 by & valance across the top of the window. The curtains are hung from a narrow brass rod. To prevent the dust from collecting, they are hung without a heading. Any soft, ncutral coloring is at- tractive for the stenciling. Old delrt- blue against a rich cream background would be charming. Ofttimes the window is narrow and we desire to have it appear wider. The straight curtains hung from the sides have this tendency. The curtain may start from the very edge of the window frame and extend beyond the width of the dra- pery. This gives an added width of a foot or less, as desired. The conventional design of blocks may either be stenciled at home or purchased at the shops. A mnarrow rod of brass is used and the draperies are hung from small brass rings. This makes a dainty, simple dressing for the mnariow win- dow. It is oiten difficult to treat the lat- ticed window eftectively. Perhaps this suggestion will prove a help, The window in ftself 18 a decorative fca- e ture, therefore the draperies should | be plain. Soft curtains of swiss or | muslin edged with a tiny ruffle of the | same make a quaint, pretty fiolsh tor | the latticed window, They are usually caught back with a cord or narrow band of the same material. i Another suggestion for the plain ! window is to have the draperies ex- | tend twelve or fourteen inches below the sill. A valance joins them at the | top. { The narrow rod may be of brass or painted wood. The curtains are hung from small brass rings. | Pretty French cretonnes or popling | make attractive draperies. Plain col- | jmny be carefully cut out and ap- pliqued on the curtains. For those who do not care to make the draperies, be bad at the shops. These curtains launder beautifully, | | and are thoroughly practical from | every point of view.

From Materia's MNearly Always i Avallable, In the first sketch we show a rhoio—‘ graph frame, for the front part of which the lid of a cigar box has been used. In making it, in the first place, an exact oval should be drawn with a pencil in the center of the wood, and the diagram on the right-hand side il 'lustrmm a simple way in which this {may he done, Two pins are firmly fixed into the wood at points A and A, and then a piece of thin string or | thick cotton is very loosely tied round | them, The point of the penefl () is | Placed just inside the strine, and | then the oval can be made by using it | what in the manner of a com- | T o and ghape of the oval | rned by the mee the | wre placed ap ad also | h of the str 1! ! an exact oval s of drawi one | know, the wood he Led tho s | cut out in a fow moments with a fret.

That side which is to form the | front of the frame Is covered with a thin laver of cotton wool, and then smoothly covered with silk fastened | on at the back with glue or other ad- { hesive, Prior to doing thls, however, been mark the simple little floral design shown should be worked upon the material in colored silks. The support at the back is merely a wedge-shaped picce of wood, hinged on at the top with a plece of material, and should be fur- nished inside with a short plece of tape to prevent it opening too far.

A new kind of embroidery is the rage for smart street or house gowns. It is done with ribousine, which is | like the gulmpe used In the old-fash- foned mourning fringes, but can now be bought by the yard and in any color to be drawn into many turnings by the deft embrolderer. The stitch most in vogue 18 the Russian cross- stitch somewhat, but done in gradu- ated rizes to glve more exprersion to the design. It is especlally good {on cloth, and as it lles perfectly flat, has taken tho place of elahorate ibrnidlng. It may also be used In combination with a flat sllk braid, a | plaln one being preferable.

Green and brown scem to be favorite colors in , these, sometimes combined, as in a model having an upper part of green chiffon over a hand of the brown and over gold and brown appligne banding. The same color scheme is carried out in a model of satin, a single green satin rever bordered with brown fringe, appear ing on a brown satin hlouse. Preparations for Shocks.
