HOW TO TRANSFER PATTERNS
Simple Method Of ImprIntIns En-.
broidery Designs on Linen by the
Css Of Carbon Paper.

Several correspondents have asked
me to explain the method of transfer
ring the patterns given on this page
to linen or other material, for their
own use in embroidering The method
Is a simple one of carbon paper trans.
ference.
Put you linen down nat on a hard
table; over 1t place a sheet Of car.
bon paper large enough to cover the
design: over this the design itself.
Draw all over the design with a hard
pencil. or any sharp-pointed object
which will not cut the paper, and your
design will be transferred to the linen.
When the whole pattern is not given,
measure and repeat. until the design
is completed.
II you wish. you can dispense with
the carbon paper. Fasten your design
by pins or thumbtacks firmly to the
frame Of window, place your linen
over 1t and draw as before. A lighted
lampshade will do in the evening.
However. you must be very careful:
and the method will not work at all
If your linen is too thick for the de-
sign to shine through.-Exchange.

Of East India Don Luis was saved
from a like fate only to die miserably
later on. When 1t came the time for
Carlos a man made mad by conditions
drew a rifle on him In a public place.
One shot moved the crown from Car

1t on to Manuel. Father and son died
together that day.
Il spread out my cloak to protect
Louis Philippe after seeing my hus-
band stretched lifeless on the cush-

Amelie to the premier. Il saw a man
leveling a weapon at me, and thought
in that fateful moment that at least
my son would escape and that I would
die like a true Frenchwoman for my
adopted country and my son."
When the crown had passed to Man.

the secrecy Of her chamber in a pal

to Lisbon were infrequent, except
when she went with bowed head to
the vaults in the Cathedral of st. Vim

Now In Exile.
When the recent revolution burst
with sudden fury Amelie was on her
knees In prayer. The summons came
to her in her chamber to fly for her

her breast she had pinned the triple
decorations of the Order of the Christ.

of Saint Benoit of Aviz. which had
been bestowed upon her for heroism

Stranger things than this have come

Must Choose Carefully.

dray-haired women are prone 10
wear brown. choosing it as a quiet
dignified color suited to their years
But brown is distinctly young color,
or rather 1t takes a young-looking Per.
son to wear 1t well and 1t is extreme
ly unbecoming to gray hair. Black.
gray, mauve and some of the silvery
green's are the best colors for women
whose hair has turned gray.
Stout women have to be very care
ful In their selection of colors, for
light shades make them look larger,
while black. dark blue, green and
brown have 9 subduing effect on their
curves and contours. A woman who
Is excessively tall and thin should
avoid the very dark colors, especially
black. as they will saccentuate her
lines and give her a somewhat spec
trail ppearance.-The Delineator.

VALUE OF THE WATER PAIL


In the face Of all improvements that
have been made In fire fighting an
paratus, the fact remains that the or.
binary pail Of water. even at this
date. is considered to be one of the
most efficient means of extinguishing
fires In use.
Insurance statistics, indeed. show
that more fires are put out by water
pals than by all other appliances
combined. The only point that can
well be raised against them is that.
while they are generally provided
abundantly enough in places where
they are needed. an adequate supply
OF water Is likely to be wanting.
It Is true also In a measure that
even when the pals are kept full
they are often borrowed for some
other use and not returned; so that
often when most needed they are un.
available. As q way out Of this dim.
Guilty. II has been proposed to use
pals With round or conicd bottoms.
