A BOON TO THE BLIND.

Miss Stockman's Newly Invented Patterns
...... o.<'chlmAus Newy InvenJed patterns
Likely to Be Very Useful.
Miss Marie Stockman of Germany,
who is said to be now in this country,
has recently patented a series of printed
designs in raised, type, by means OF
which workers who are blind are en-
abled readily to count the stitches and
to determine the. colors needed for any
special pattern. In fact, these designs
are much the same as, those with which
we are familiar in Berlin wool work,
cross and Gobelin stitches. the small
blocks forming the design being raised
and nodded in various ways to mark the
varieties in color. IF canvas in one of
its many forms be chosen, or any other
material having q raised thread which
the worker can count by sliding the fin
ger or needle across it, an intelligent
person will, with little preliminary
guidance, soon be able to work cross,
fat, long and short, tassel and Gobelin
stitches with due attention to colors and
shades Of color. It will then be open to
her to make borders suitable for por-
there's, mantelpieces. besides cushions,
rugs and smaller articles of many sorts.
Hitherto, though many Of the blind
seem to have an extra sense to enable
them to distinguish color by the feel of
the woods and silks, they can only work
with the teacher at hand to tell them
the number Of stitches to be worked
with each tint, and the introduction of
these raised patterns should prove q
great help

Up to Date Jewelry.

If you want to be particularly up to
date in the matter of gems and jewelry,
hunt up those that fashion has frowned
upon for some time. The latest London
fancy is this turquoise, although blond
women of all ATTITUDES and longitudes
may well welcome it's revival. There is
no other stone that is so becoming to
the blue eyed, blond haired and fair
skinned as the turquoise. 1t is. how
ever, only at it's best when surrounded
with diamonds. Another stone that has
recently returned to favor is the anne
thyst. 1t is the fancy of the hour to set
this just as it was in our grandmoth-
ers' tipe-rather deliberately, and with
plenty Of pearls and other accessories.
