One of the first things shown me was
twenty yards Of embroidered satin. Just
completed and intended for court dress
for Lady Lillian Wemyss, the daughter OF
the Duke of Winchester. The satin ia
pale yellow and is embroidered in large
feurS-de- lis of the conventional pattern
rhe fettrs-de-lis are fully five inches the
longest way. They are outlined in gold
thread and filled in with pure yellow silk,
intermingled with threads of gold. The
pattern is of Lady Lilian's choosing, the
feUrS-de-Iis, or lily, being her name flower
Another court dress already made up for
Lady Henry Grosveuor is OF white satin
embroidered with slender garlaads OF
flowers, tied with true lovers knots
wrought in blue. There are twenty-six
yards of this embroidery. It has all the
effect OF old brocade, and is made up for a
petucost of pale blue.
Two sets Of window curtains have been
made at this school for her royal highness,
the Princess of Wales. They are IN crewel
work on foundation Of heavy hand
woven linen, one set in blue, the other in
crimson. The princess chose her own pat
tern-a pomegranate pattern, which has
been photographed for this paper.
A similar set of curtains in crewels was
made for the Princess Louise, Marchioness
OF LOrne, TO be used on her yacht
Lady Henry Grosvenor is very clever at
designing. The pOmegranate pattern is
hers, so is what is called in the school, the
poppy pattern" and the Croil pattern"
the latter an adaptation from some an
cient mbroidery brought to light in Croil,
an old royal borough further east on the
Firth.
and this brings me to speciality Of thls
school-the restoration Of ancient needle
work, also adaptation from it. A good ex-
ample of the latter are the curtains OF
dark green velvet, embroidered with the
thistle Of Scotland, and adapted from
piece of work done by Mary, Queen OF
Scots.
The thistIes are of life-size, and are OF
white linen satin twill, apDliqued and
edged with pure gold cord expressly made
for this work The veining of the leaves,
the outlines of the stems, are of this gold
cord, and the thistles are netted with the
same rich material. The curtains Will be
lined with white silk and are edged with
heavy gold cord. They are for Wemyss
castle, and there seems a certain appro-
priateness In this adaptation from Mary
Stuart's needlework, going to the castle
which is so identified with her memory.
The girls were engaged, when i Was
there, on a piece of work which shows
what may be done IN the way of restoration
of ancient needlework. Theyiwere trans
ferring' a quantity Of heavy, rich, old
crewel work II had been sewed on chairs
and touches until the foundation fabric
was a mass of rags. They were transfer

taking shape as a handsome coverlet. So
that without examining the wrong side,

The idea of this school was first sug-
gested TO Lady Henry Grosvenor-fheu
Miss Wemyss-at the opening Of the Roy
School OF Needlework at Kensington. Mrs.
Webster was then doing plain needleworl1
at the castle, aud was 'without exbep-
tion," said Lady Henry Grosvennr 10 me.
''the most exquisite of needlewomen"
She felt quite sure that with her perfect
command of her needle Mrs Webster
could with practice become as expert at
EN- broideriss as she was at plain hemming
and stitching.
The school is on the part of the estate
known as Coal Town in East Wemyss
All the pupils belong to this aud neighbor-
ing villages, and all are daughters of
miners. They enter at the age of II after
completing the required standards at the
Board school. The apprenticeship is for
six months. Alter that they stay on and
have wages or else take service The ap-
prentlces have no difficulty in securing
goon situations as their skill in needlework
adds greatly to their desirabi.ity as ladses'
maids. Many of them, of course, marry IN
time and carry the habits of precision and
thoroughness they have acquired under
Mrs. Webster's training into their homes.
The placing of the school in the coal
district was well considered plan; the
hope was to help solve the problem Of pro-
viding work for cOttegers in their own
homes, which is now occupying the minds
of so many thoughtful English and Scotch
women.
The largest number yet employed at one
time is thirty-six. Some of the girls have
been connected with the school ten or
twelve years. l am told Mrs. Webster is
remarkably successful in quickly training
her pupils. ~ like to see piece of WORK

the board and near enough the edge TO
form a border, draw some conventional
design; now remove the board and on the
cnamois couch all the outlines you have
drawn with heavy Japanese gold thread
Cover the board. Then cut smaller piece
OF board TO make pocket for cards as
shown in the illustration, and cover IL with
chamois on which may be couched a
similar border in gold; also across the
centre the word "Postals'' in quaint, ir
regular letters
Line the back of the smaller board with
dark red watered silk, then hold it firmly
In It's place on the larger board and drive
through the two brass nails with orna-
mental heads, clinching them on the under
side; or the edges of two sections may be
sewn together with red silk. If the brass
nails are used they will give sufficient
decoration except along the open edge of
the pocket. Paste neatly over the back
either silk or heavy red watered
paper. To the under side of each corner
overland with red silk very neatly small
triangle of the chamois. Cut several
sheets OF red or yellow plotting paper the
necessary size and slip them under the
corners which will hold them fast, and in
the pocket put all the postals it will hold
You may be sure this gift will please the
special masculine critic for whom it is
designed, and whose monogram may be
worked in the gold thread in one of the
upper corners over the postal card pocket.

skin. Cover the boards in the usual man
ner, only place them vertically one below
the other. instead of side by side.
When that part Of the work is done and
the paste is quite dry, arrange upon the
chamois fine delicate ferns or grasses as
the illustration indicates. Stick pins, here
and there, through the fronds into the
frame to hold them firmly in their places,
and then with olive dye paint, spatter over
the surface that is left exposed. To do this
neatly, put On first of all pair of loose
gloves that your fingers may be free
to move and at the same time be
protected from stain. Then dip a tooth
brush lightly in the dye and pass it gently
back and forth over the teeth of fine
comb till the spray is spsttered over all the
frame. Let it become perfectly dry. Then
with care remove the pins and ferns when
you will find their outline in tender green
on a background of darker tone. Attach
a ribbon to the upper edge by which to
hang it, and when that last step is taken
you will have completed as charming a
frame as will be given this Christmas
