ton, Chinese and Madeira embroi-
derles.
No linen embroidery covers the en-
tire ground OF the material, but leaves
spaces of the linen for a background
to the design.
There are interesting imported lin.
ems to be found in most establish
ments that are adapted to both kinds
of linen embroidery Besides the
Irish linen there are Spanish. Silesian
and Algerian linens for small stitches
and fine work, while the coarser lin.
ems of Cuba. Ceylon and Batavia are
used for bolder effects and coarser
stitchery, and Russian linens and the
different kinds OF canvas gives
stitches Of any desired size
Most OF these can be found in white
cream and ecru. and many OF the so
called art linens come in varied tones
of any given shade.
Though the old-time embroiderles
were rarely done on cotton goods we
think nothing of putting handsome
stltchery on cotton materials sheer
and Opaque It is better, however
to make such embroidery sketchy' as
the material is not worth fine work.

GIRLS HESITATE AT HUGGlNG
Goods Of California State University
Refuse to Fall Into Arms OF
Chorus Men-Wln Out.

Berkeley, Cal.-Seventeen co-eds oil
the senior class at the state university
broke up rehearsal on the stage OF
the Greek theater, declining to allow
male members of the class to put theiI
arms around them. The objection
of the senior girls followed an attempt
of Fred Carlisle, the coach, to have
the goods of the Baby Doll" chorus
of THE Hop King" the commence
ment week play OF the class, fall into
the arms of male chorus men at the
conclusion OF the dance.
Claiming that they were not ac
qualnted with the owners of the
arms, never having been introduced
to the men, the co-eds declined the
proposed first meeting familiarity.
Coach Carlisle and members Of
the cast attempted to smooth over
the strike of the co-eds, but they
remained obdurate and the scene
was temporarily dropped. The girls
say they came up to the exigencies
OF the production by appearing in
short dresses and the proposed IA
mlliarity was altogether lacking In
dignity. The feature will be drop
ped for the present unless Carlisle
Is able to bring the men and women
of the chorus closer together.

DOCTOR PRESCRlBES

was going to get some of the CutIcura
Remedies and give them a fair trial

unfraYed seaIIops.

Some housekeepers object to the
buttonholed scallop on embroidery be
cause II trays in washing. This can
be overcome in several ways. The
surest is to buttonhole second time
over the purled edge, when the seal
lop has been worked and cut out.
Another method is to run the out
line OF the scallop with machine
stitching before buttonholing. or IN
cutting leave a narrow margin and
turn back under the scallop and hem
to the material
II these are too much trouble, at
least wash the linen before cutting
out. The material shrinks and is much
less likely to fray. Where the entire
piece is not washed, the embroidered
edge can be dipped in lukewarm wa
ter for a few minutes, then ironed dry
and later cut out close to the purled
edge.

Makes Study Of vagrant and
Becomes One Himself.
Albert Clutterbuck, Charged With Beg
sing, Is Sent to Prison-Writes
Book on Methods of Mendl-
cants He Lived With.

London.-A document entitled The
Life OF a Beggar" was written In an
infirmary by Albert Clutterbuck, aged
30, who was charged with begging at
Marylebone police court.
Parts of this, based on what the
man heard and saw while living In
common lodging house, were read
aloud by Mr.. Paul Taylor, the magis-
arate, who described the document as
"most interesting"
"Of course most of you have heard
or know of Noting Dale, the home OF
beggars. When baby is born in this
noted district and gets to five or seven
years of age, 1t is taken out with
its mother and father and taught the
way to beg. Its mother takes 1t in
her arms and goes and molests ladies
and gentlemen for means to buy the
child some bread Their bread means
beer. and most people know that, but
they give to them to get rid OF
them.
when the child has been learning
in this way for about six years, 1t is
sent out with about six pairs of laces,
or a few matches, and with these 1t
continually molests ladies' and gentle
men and asks them to buy or give
u few coppers. 1t keeps going out
with these until about 16 or II, and
then leaves home to get married. BY
that time they know where to buy
their stock of ferns, flowers, laces and
matches, and where to borrow babies,
etc"
A description followed of the beg
gars' homes and their weekly 'feats,'
and the document then went on to de-
scribe the beggars summer holiday
which, 1t said, was the only time
when the beggar did any work. They
went on the road" to Kent, begging
all the way, and after working for
three or four weeks at fruit picking
they drew their money. spent 1t at
the nearest public house, and after
wards got a job at hop picking with

Much as we use linen nowadays, for
,ur table, our beds and our bodies, II
s not a new medium for embroidery.
{ is ages old, as for centuries linen
embroidery has been domestic In
lustry in foreign lands.
This old work is now being copied
widely and the special work belong

llzed Thus the old Spanish, Italian
ind Greek embroidery on the linen
vas chiefly done in one color-a pur.
pie red. A great variety OF colors
mixed with gold and silver thread Is
characteristic OF Oriental work.
A similar richness of coloring, but
generally without the gold and silver
.ouches, marks the Hungarian, Slay.
and Swedish peasant work. Old blue
'ed and yellow are the predominatlng
ones.
Much OF the italian embroidery OF
he sixteenth and seventeenth cen
uries was done on very fine linen
sometimes IN colors, but more often In
white, with intricate stltchery and
much cut and openwork The modern
girl, however. rarely has patience for
this exquisite stitchery of the olden
lines. Her work is more splashy and
ess beautiful
For this reason the quality OF the
linens used today are changed, the
threads being round and coarser, so
they can easily be counted to make
easier the copying Of the design. The
old embroideries. especially the ltal-
ian ones, were done on very fine linen.
In choosing a linen to embroider II
should be handkerchief. and without
much dressing. The threads should
be round, especially II any drawn
work is to be combined with the EN-
broldery. There are special art lin
ems for fancy work which are quite
distinct from the linens used for
sheets and pillow cases.
Unless you are sure you can detect
cotton threads and imperfect weaving
It is well to leave the selection OF
your linen for an elaborate piece OF
embroidery to saleswoman ip the
