center piece need not of necessity be
very large and a mat of twelve inches in
diameter of this style of work under a
simple of flowers or growing fern will
be very satisfactory for every day use. and
as it washes well need not be used a.
minute after its freshness is gone, for col
ored embroidery is apt to linger too long
in use owing to the precariousness of its
ever looking well after laundering.
There is a new embroidery called blind,
which | have only heard described, con-
sisting of featherstitching the design from
the back, making an almost dotted appear
ance on the front, said to be very effective.
An exhibit lately held here showed most
beautiful examples of art needlework in
many styles, which made the ordinary en-
broidery in bright silks seem gaudy and
tawdry in comparisons; only faded and half
tones of color were used and sharp con-
trasts were avoided, so that the results
were most artistic.

For instance, where colors were used, the
background would not be of dead white
whether of linen silk, but a cream or
ecru tint instead In one table cover the
blending of colors was exquisite, the ground
was linen of a deep cream shade, the pat
tern was IN all over wreathed design, car
ried out in pale violet, pastel blue and
soft rose color, with leaves and curvng
stems of olive, and powdered over the back
ground at equal distance irrespective of
the design, were large polkadots of olive.

which made it noticeable at once
Another feature of this exhibit was that
figured and brocaded silks were used as
backgrounds for embroidery. both in rib
bon work. of which there was a beauti-
full display, and also in fiat work

There seemed to be a revival of Queen

ground cotton much resembling loosely
woven unbleached muslin was used the
ground being darned in one direction and
the pattern in the opposite one, pale, faded
colors being used.
Cross stitch was also employed solid

plain green background for instance.
There was much beautiful Italian cut

Doilies and mats of this work are most
attractive and patterns and instruction can
be gotten in one of the shops here.

LOS ANGELES, May 19.-(Editor

in the city Of Los Angeles. There are
eight drug stores in this prohibition
city, which carry very complete lines
OF liquors, and which are not kept to
look at but are for sale
The advocates of the no-saloon ordi-
nance deny this is prohibition cleo
ton. While It is true thot the election
OH June is for the purpose Of closing
saloons only, the ultimate object, as
expressed by DR.. Chapman himself
and by the many ministers of the
gospel who are urging the voters of
this city to expel the saloons, is to
close up every place where liquors are
sold, either by manufactures, whole
saler or retailer. Should the saloons be
closed at the coming election CAM
paign will at once be started to ac-
complish the complete prohibition of
Los Angeles. Then will come the sad
awakening, and the voter for no-saloon
will realize too late how he was
hoodwinked.
Let us work together in the future
on the same broad lines of respecting
our neighbor's and fellow citizens
Ideas and not try to cram an obnoxious
law down his throat. In this way only
will we continue to advance our past

BELIEVES GIRL
WAS HYPNOTREO
LENA Brooches UNDER EVIL
SPELL
MAKES EXPLANATION
Recalls Numerous Incidents Supports
ing His Theory Of Hypnotic ln-
fluenee Of Mrs. Adler
Over Her

Hypnotism Is now thought to have
been the influence used by Mrs. Sophia
Adler to induce Lena Brooches sixteen
year-old daughter of A. Brooches, to
leave home last Wednesday, according
to statement made yesterday by the
missing girls father.
Since the girl left Los Angeles, the
father declares he las tried to think
OF every possible reason which his
daughter might have had for leaving
her home with Mrs. Adler. A number
of incidents, trifing in themselves,
have been recalled by him, which, he
says, have convinced him that the girl
was completely in the power of Mrs.
Adler, through hynotic influences.
A letter was received by Lizzie
Brooches on Friday evening, which had
been mailed by the missing girl at the
Niles postoffice. In this letter Lena
bids her youngest sister goodby and
tells her that no one need look for her,
as she has already signed a contract
with theatrical company and will be
on the stage for the next three years
She wrote that she felt she was old
enough to take care of herself and in
tended to do so. In conclusion, the
girl declared eternal hatred of her
eldest sister, Jenny, and her mother.
but did not once mention her fathers
name.
my wife saw Mrs. Adler dictate this
letter to my daughter Wednesday
morning" said Mr.. Brooches yesterday
afternoon. "She told me afterward
that Lena went into Mrs. Adler's house
the morning before she left. My wife
went to her neighbor's room to request
the girl to return home, and found her
sitting at table writing. When
asked by my wife what she was doing,
she answered nothing. but the paper

that this letter was dictated by that
woman and that my daughter was un-
der hypnotic spell at the time.
For several days before Lena dis
appeared she seemed to be very nerv-
Gus, and slept but little at night. At
times she was listless and her mind
seemed to be far away.
II believe nothing short of hypnotism
would cause Lena to leave her home"

HE WAS FAR GONE

Quit (and that is the reason why some
go back). he had as well remain at
home; for. if he had rather be drunk
than sober he can learn the habit just
as easily after being cured as he

take him little longer time to do so.
