A Shock For Shaw.

Bernard Shaw some years ago met
q young lady at a dinner party who
said that she could read character
from writing. Mr.. Shaw denied belief
in her powers and said that at any
rate she could not read characters
from typewriting.
Now. it happened that the host had
Just got a typewriter, and the young
lady offered to be put to the test. The
machine was brought, and Mr.. Shaw,
picking out the letters n by one,
wrote his first name. Then he dis
covered that he had used only capital
letters. So, shifting to the lower case.
he wrote his last name.
Then he handed the result to his
companion. This was what she read:
"BERNARD shaw"
Its as plain as anything" she said.

Bead Necklace.

A most attractive and inexpensive
necklace which can be made by a girl
in an evening is of tiny gold beads
and baroque pearl medallions and
pendants.
There is a double string of the small
gold beads caught at regular intervals
with fiat, oval baroque pearl beads
about the size of a pea. At the mid
die of the string the lower strand is
heightened and festooned. 1t is held
to the upper string with a fat round
medallion of pearl.
Pendant beads are arranged on the
lower string. either three or five, as
one wishes. These may be bought at
the art needlework counters of all the
big shops and are of a soft, mellow
pearl color.
The beads are run on strong waxed
silk or surgeons thread, and the neck
lace is fastened with a tiny gold clasp.
Cut steel beads with gun metal pend
ants and medallions also make charm
ing necklaces.
