Two female tramps have just reached
Luzerne county, their birthplace, after
being on the road for nearly three
months. They Mted from Kansas
City, and the greater part of the distance
they Travelled in cattle cars. They be-
came tramps through force Of circum-
stances. They are sisters, and two years
ago married railroad men and went west.
One of the husbands died. and the other,
who proved a worthless fellow, soon
after disappeared. The sisters now
found themselves in the midst Of power
ty and among strangers. They could
not get along. and they pined for their
old home in Pennsylvania, but could not
raise the money to pay their fares.
One evening they hit upon the move.

tramping home. They deliberated long

this was tho only way they could ge

a marvellous example of old time
needlework has found its way into one
of the exchanges for women's work in
this city through the impecuniousness
of the family in which it has long been
cherished rs an heirloom.
1t is a piece Of the quilted work which
has become one OF the lost arts in these
days, and was the border Of a petticoat
worn by some richly clad German dame
$50 years ago. The strip is half a yard
in width and about three yards inlength.
1t consists Of two thieknesses of fine
white cotton with a soft interlining. 1t
is quilted all over with an exquisite
medley Of flowers, foliage and ara
besques. into which is wrought every va
riefy of stitch" known to expert needle
Ct #. In those days there no other
ornaments nor any devices for stamping.
The patient fingers that fashioned such
work also made their own designs. drew
them with n needle. free hand, as they
went along, and SO this petticoat border
was the work Of an artist as well as a
clever needle woman. The fabric is
stiff with stitches-thcre are billions OF
them-and the surface puts one in mind
of a piece Of fine repousse work in white
silver.
The woman who IS now compelled to
part with it has a pitiful story. She
and her husband in their advanced age
were forced by rererses to emigrate to
the far west, where in an unsettled eeun-
try, three days ride from q human habi-
tation, they took up a claim" The
wife, unused 10 hardship, finally lost heI
health, and in the hope Of regaining il
came east last autumn, leaving her nus
band alone. The severity Of the winter
killed all their stock, and the old mar
finally met with an accident that laid
him up with both legs broken. He Is
helpless and penniless and alone, andhis
wife is helpless and penniless here
unable to reach him. She had sold
everything available before she had made
up her mind to part with her ancestral
petticoat. Tt is a rare and interesting
piece of work and ought to lac in =
