Some Ideas Gleaned From Eastern Papers. the A combination sewing apron and work bag Is a very useful article It folds In such a manner as to look simply like a fancy bag when carried. If obliged to buy children's under wear, it is a good plan to get the perfectly plain garments and put on lace or embroidery ruffles at home. The white petticoats to be found in the shops this season are so elaborate and pretty that ladies are buying them quite as much for wear with dainty matinees in their rooms as to wear beneath their dressy gowns. Black Neopolitan straw, black vel vet ribbon, and a handsome black feather are the component parts of a hat that will appropriately accom pany any summer gown. The pale blue and white combina tion is very effective this season. A charming white linen costume has light blue satin ribbon belt, collar, and hat trimming. Another touch ot blue might be the button centers •sur rounded with narrow white lace frills, which is a new and popular mode of trimming. All-white summer gowns seem to be the most satisfactory on the whole because they launder so well, but the many pretty colored materials are too great a temptation to be withstood by the average girl or woman, and with a little care in washing will look well for a couple of seasons. Colored articles should be washed in warm, not hot, soapy water containing salt, and then rinsed in cold water con taining a little vinegar. Of course everybody knows that colored articles should be dried in the shade and ironed on the wrong side. At Auburn North Dakota home talent gave a play called "Leap Year in the Village with one Gentleman". It was. a very successful affair and well at tended.

New York April 14:—There has been for the past few weeks a very useful occupation steadily gaining ground as- a very fashionable one. It is the gentle art of fine needlework. Not the nerve-destroying, digestion disturber of the hotel veranda, which a famous physician has so strenuously denounced),—not that, but the fem inine and:usefu) occupation of the hand embroidered muslin shirt waist, collar and cuff sets, linen four-in-hands, corset covens,- etc. It is-now the favorite recreation of our society girls to either accumulate for themselves ravishing articles of their own dainty design and make, or else to favor some girl friend or bride to-be with gifts ln this line. Oae young woman'had just completed a dozen exquisitely hemstitched hand kerchiefs with embroidered mon ogram, In the corners. Another Indust rious young matron has been mak ing numerous lovely collar, and cuff sets,, not only for her own use but. as she says, "to lend to her friends." To make these easily and prettilv one should watch the handkerchief counters and capture the odd and dainty bargains so often to be found there. Take two corners of the hand kerchief for cuffs and the rest for the collar, with middle strips for the bands to hold them. Or fashion them as fancy and the fertile feminine mind pleases. Plain hemstitched handker chiefs when fine enough can be cut and used in this way, and a fine Val enciennes edge added with good effect. Of course to carry out the hand-work idea it Is necessary to put all the stitches In with the thimble finger, but it is much easier and quicker to put the staying bands OIL by machine. There is still another way, to stitch the band on first time by machine and hem It over by hand. Some of these handkerchiefs are em broldered In colors and are extremely pretty with a Dlaln white waist There is a French blue for this kind of em broidery, very dainty and thoroughly washable. Of the larger pieces of needle-work In vogue the lingerie blouse Is the most pretentious. Some of these are of linen. The Dattern worked on them is solid and heavy in handsome designs of flowers, both natural and convent tonal. Very modiste waists are of pale ecru batiste lavishly decorated with white embroidery and white lace. Floral designs rule. Whole dresses are made of this ecru batiste, the skirt having embroidered bands to match the waist. Sometimes these gowns have a fetching touch given by pale blue, pink lilac or green chiffon rib bons at belt and bust, or about the neck, and as a finish to the elbow sleeves. Other separate waists are made of woollen lace insertions put together with fancy stitches in colored silks. A course ecru linen waist was seen splashed with spider web designs in black silk and with linen covered buttons embroidered in black. More elaborate than any of those *1'A $ y*- NiW.Wf To return, however, to the simple needlework fad of the oresent moment, there ia- anew combination of dotted and plain muslin used for the summer white dress which Is novel and pretty and admits of much skilful needle work in the way of tucks and inser tions. For the homemade underwear the handkerchief is the favorite material. Two or three can be put together for exquisite corset'covers and the dress ing sacques of plain, hemstitched hankerchief put together with, lace in insertions and edges are dreams of daintiness and beauty. As for pattern they shape themselves in a skilful hand, but there are patternS tnany and varied to be found in any pattern store. ^om« of the more ambitious little needle women are embroidering par asol covers. There is for the trained hand a charming decoration for the summer parasol In the painted spray of- roaes, or wreath of green leaves or lilacs or whatever bloom preferred, laid with the brush .upon-'the parasol divisions. The prettiest and most be coming parasol a woman: can carry, however,. Is the white silk. It 1b in variably becoming, having a wonder fully clearing effect upon the-oomplex iOn An effective white shade of this kind was decorated at the top with a white chiffon ribbon bow and ends,, with a smaller bow to match the handle just above the hand. It is pro phesied that the small hats this sea son will call for small parasols and it is true that many- of the carriage parasols? imported are exceedingly small and some really- resemble a sunflower In shape and circumference. In Paris these are called the'sun flower pattern. They are made of dainty silk and lace perched on along slender stem. Some of them have a splinter of amber set ln the stem, am ber being worn and used by fashion able folks this season In many forms and ways. Contrasting colors are extremely fashionable this- year,, the dominant gown color being only touched up by the contrasting one, hence great care is required not to overstep, toe bound aries. The following, touch-up colors will assist those who wish information on that point. Pale blue dominating touch-up- with: moss green. To red ln a deep rich shade give a touch-up of iron. gray. With yellows, use a dull shade of blue—a watery blue. Other yellows require a dull gold shade. Other yellows are best with white. Mauve falls in with flesh, pink, or with pale blue. Touch up Cigar and wood browns with yellow,, orange or amber. It is the tints of the colors, quite aa much as the colors themselves that are all important —Estelle, ABDITIONAL UXIVEBSITY TRACK HEN TO TRAIN. Next Week the Sprinters "Will Get Ont for Regular Exercise. On account of the disagreeable weather, track work has received quite a setback. Next week, how ever, it will begin in earnest, as the meet with Brookings is not very many weeks distant. The runners will be seriously handicapped until the track can be put in condition. A splendid start was made last fall and it will not require much more work to put it in shape for practice. There promises to be no lack of candidates in the distance runs this year and some of the new men will make a strong bid for places before the season is over.
