keeper. "The proprietor saw that l
had doubts about the quality of tea
that had been recommended, so he
darted back to the rear of the store.
/ expected him to return with cup
of steaming drink, but he brought a
small ash tray and a match instead.
He threw pinch of tea into the tray,
touched 1t with lighted match and
watched 1t burn. Then he applied
the same test to another brand of tea
that had claimed my half-hearted al
legiance. The first sample of tea
showed only small flake of ash, the
second three times as much.

A LMOST every woman in the
~ summer has bit of embroidery
4 y to pick up at odd moments. This
work becomes real pleasure
and at some summer resorts almost
a craze. Women work morning. noon
and night on some such dainty gar
ment or useful article as is sketched
on this page today.
The designs which are the most
lasting and the least affected by the
whims of fashion are those OF rather
simple lines. A bright woman can
make good livelihood by specializing
on some simple design, such as a
dainty handkerchief embroidered at
the corners. making her articles to
sell to some exclusive shop.
An embroidery designer, too, may
earn very good living in many ways.
She may design patterns for shirt
waists, for collars, belts and no end
of things which women insist on hay
ing embroidered at any cost. Every
mother, too, takes delight In seeing
her children daintily dressed, even to
the extent of neglecting herself, and

EGAN GETS MEDAL

rice Francis Egar. author. educator
and diplomatist. The award is made
for distinguished services to Catholic
literature and education.
For 20 years before his appoint
ment as the representative OF the Uni
ted States at the court of Denmark,
Dr. Egan was occupied as professor
of literature, and during that period
he found time to publish several i'm
portant works ON literary criticism
which are held in high esteem by uni
a novelist, but his claims to literary
distinction rest most on the verse
which he has written.
He has published several volumes
and Richard Watson Glider placed
him among the three best sonneteers
in English. Because of the literary
quality of his work and most of all be-
cause his themes are wholesome and
eleyating the trustees of the Univer-
sity of Notre Dame have selected DIR.
Egan as the recipient OF the Laetare
medal this year.
The medal takes its name from the
title given the fourth Sunday Of Lent,
the day when the announcement of
the award is always made. 1t cor
responds to the decoration of the
Golden Rose, which is conferred by
the pope every year on some member
of the nobility of Europe.
The medal is large disk of pure
gold, richly enameled, and bearing in
relief some design suited to the pro-
fession of the recipient. A motto in
Latin. Truth is mighty and shall pre-
vail" appears in black enamel sur
rounding the design. Accompanying
the medal is an address of award
painted on silk by some artist of re-
nown.
The Laetare medal was first given
in 1883. 1t was then conferred on the

Last autumn 1t became the top of
fashion to have ones gown draped
with Chantilly lace shawl. Carrots
were ransacked and heirlooms were
handed over by grandmothers to
young women. The shops themselves
did not offer the shawls. Probably
the manufacturer did not know there
was going to be such demand for
the article.
Now they do know it, and although
they have not turned out the real
shawls. the shops are offering yards
