NEW BUTTONS
FOR SPRING
Embroidered Buttons Decorated With Wreaths and SPRAYS
Of Fowers-Spked Buttons Novelty

Buttons for wear during the coming
spring are of beautiful materials and
are works of art, intended more for
decorative than for useful purposes. ,
Buttons vary as much In size, style
and materiais'as the gowns which they
trim, but there is very general fancy
for embroidered buttons to match the
trimming upon a gown.
Embroidered buttons are long and
oval or round, and come in many sizes
of these two shapes. The shape is Sc
iected more for the purpose of allowing
suitable space for the decorative fig
ure than anything else. A small wreath
with a tiny lowered or plain center
naturally looks best upon a round but
ton, while a spray of minute flowers
iE best shown upon an oblong button.
Some Of the larger oblong buttons have
a wreath border and spray center and
some Of the round buttons q large fiow-

the effect of bringing the other colors
into relief.
A woman could cover wooden Button
forms with scraps of her gown, and
quickly embroider a few tiny flowers
or dots In several colors upon the top.
The shapes are full and curved, not
fiat. Only buttons of heavy dress ma
terials are fiat, or some of the beaten
metal buttons.
Besides embroidered buttons i'm silk,
satin, linen and crepe and cross stitch,
French knot and Swedish stitched but
tons, there are all sorts of buttons
made Of real and imitation Jewels, Of
beaten gold, silver and gunmetal fig
ures of wrought brass and steel and
combinations Of brass and steel.
Many OF the new buttons look like
gold, silver or gunmental marbles, or
even colored stone marbles, decorated
upon the outside with a fancy frame
Of rhinestones or colored glass stones,
or with steel spikes or brass spikes.
The spikes are small and resemble the
big spiked balls seen on old armor.

Lieut.. Howe was such a splendid
shot that he could pace off twen-

dollar nineteen times out of twenty
with an old flint-lock. He was pres

and wrote to a friend. ANDRE was
dressed as neatly as if going to ball,
with his boots nicely polished. We

The old sword carried by Col.
Ezekiel Howe in the Concord fight
is one of the relics treasured by his
descendants. For many years it
hung upon the walls of the old Sud-
bury Inn, the "Wayside Inn," made
famous by Longfellow. over the
sword hung the Howe arms for nearly
one hundred and fifty years. or from
100. when David Howe built the
house, until about the middle of the
nineteenth century, when the place
passed out of the possession of the
Howe family.
"A kind of old hobgoblin hail." Long
fellow calls the place in his poem, and
he thus describes the Howe arms:
And in the parlor. fun in view,

With three wolves heads, and, for the

"You surprise mew cried Mrs. Pigeon.
3Why, with that high hat and polka
dot tie and standing collar and striped
trousers you look so much like man
that the ostrich will think you are a
man. Run along over there now like a
good husband and get me the feath-

I'll try" said Mr.. Pigeon, and Off he
went. He got up real close to the os-
trich and made dive for feather.
The ostrich turned his head and dealt
Mr.. Pigeon fearful whack with his
bill. The high hat was split clear in
two, and Mr.. Pigeon rolled over on the
ground in heap half senseless Then
Mr.. Ostrich walked away as if nothing
had happened.
"He didn't think / was a man." said
Mr.. Pigeon to his wife as she bathed
his head

should have told him you were a man.
