Heavy Embroidery.

Awkward Ncedlcwoman asks what
she can do to mako her embroidery
look well. II will draw and quicker.
She has tried all sorts OF ways with
out avail. Answer: Tho trouble Is
that you make your irst threads too
tight. Begin with "A great deal of care
and do not pull or draw the work.
Perfect accuracy Is learned only after
long practice. Indeed, II appears to be
impossible for some workers tn finish
a piece Of work without pickering It
all out of shape. Fine embroidery Is
best done over a hoop, which may be
had OF any dealer In fancy goods. Care
must be taken In putting the material
In the hoop that 1t Is no too much
wrinkled or creased. Almost all EN-
broidery Is improved by being pressed
with Il moderately warm iron.

W. q. NJ. writes for advice on the
following points: A woman who Is the
mother Of three daughters. n of
whom is dead. owns property to a con-
sid, rablc amount. She dies and leaves
by will her estate to the two living
daughters. leaving out the children OF
the daughter who died. Can the will
be broken In favor Of the g~randchild-
rem? But Il few months before her
death sho married and nothing IL left
to the husband. What car be doner
Answer, Such n problem would fur
nish Il hard nut for u good lawyer TO
crack. In some OF the states q hus-
band can inherit from the wife and no
law can prevent II. On general prin-
ciples all children must he provided for
In a will. II would appear to be an
easy matter to break "A will made un-
der such circumstances. but n doubt

band out Of his rights under the will.
