FOR TH5 OLD FOLKS.
Useful Homemade 'regenta Foi
Grandpa and Grandmother.
An eyeglass eleauer is just the gift
for grandpa or grandmother, and even
the small child of the household will
be able without trouble to fashion one.
The case Is simply made of two pieces
of chamois cut In heart shape nnd bound
with half inch
ribbon. An eye
glass Is either
painted on one
side of the case
or done In out
line stitch with
embroidery silt
An inexpen

fans of graduated sizes held togetln
with thin wire.
Knitting needle caps are easily made
and, best recommendation perhaps, af
ford the children a chance of doing
something "their very- own selves" for
grandmother, who will find the caps
very useful In the summer when she
takes her knitting on the beach or in
the fields during the summer holidays.
Two new corks the size of those
used for wine bottles are required.
These must be cut down to about an
Inch in length and have the tops round
- ed off caplike. Cover them very neatly
and tightly with flannel or any soft
material and take care there Is no
Join over the flat end of the cork. Now
take a nice piece of fairly wide col
ored silk elastic about half an Inch
shorter In length than the knitting nee
dles you use most frequently and at
tach it at either end to the corks. Muke
the outside cover for the caps, which
can be any pretty material, Joining the
sides, turning In the raw edges at the
bottom and stitching down to the flan
nel. The top Is gathered up and finish
ed off with a pretty gold bead, and the
caps are completed, and very useful
they are as protection to the points of
the knitting needles.

Lively Interest Is Taken in Topics of
Regular Meeting.
Milwaukle Grange held their regu
lar meeting last Saturday. A good
sized crowd was in attendance and all
seomed to enjoy themselves. The reg
ular routine of business was . gone
through in the forenoon. This was
followed by one of those good old
Grunge dinners that has made Mil
waukie famous. A sooial hour was
spent after dinner and then the Grange
was called to order and the meetiug
hnuded over to the charge of the lec
turer. The roll was then called and
each member present responded by
giving a short talk on a subject which
had been assigned to him by the oap
tain of his side in the contest. This
proved to be the most mteresiing part
of the program and some really fine
talks were given. The best one of the
day was given uy one of the younger
members who spoke on the advantages
of running a large ranch as compared
with a small farm where truit and
vegetables are raised. .Other talks
were given on sncli subjects as "When
to Spray and What to Spray With,"
"Blackberry Pruning," "How to
Make Chickens LBy in the D'all,"
" II' w tn Keep the Boys Ilouie on the
Farm," etc. Also, to keep the pro
gram balHiiod some talks were given
in a lighter vein on such weighty sub
joots as "What I Know About a
Mule." "The Kight Kind of a Girl
tor a Wife." and "The Faults of
Women. " After roll oall Side "A"
was divided into two sections for a
discussion on the question, "Resolved,
That the government shall own and
control the railways" the negative
side winning out. The literary contest
only runs tor two more meetings now
and each side is trying hard to win
out and as a consequence the Grange
always has a good literary prorgam.
