 There is an effect produced by this handiwork no -machine-made trim ming. no matter how beautiful, can show.
 Scalloped edges appear upon almost every article in the wardrobe. Wide scallops and narrow ones with but tonholed. edges are extremely effec- tive.
 Covered buttons may be embroider ed in a great variety of designs to adorn the gown of linen or voile.
 Crocheted buttons add a pretty touch to the lingerie frock, and they are not difficult to make.

Drugged and Robbed

After being drugged and robbed, Caleb Wixson, an inmate of the Sol- diers' Home, was left in Stamford Saturday afternoon and was found Sunday morning in a poor physical condition. He was taken to the Stam- ford hospital and died Monday after noon. Mr. Wilson received his pen ion last week and was celebrating a little. He was touched for almost the entire sum and left under a tree, where he was later found. The de- ceased was seventy-two years of age.
 Transfer Causes Criticism
 A no-license campaign has been started in Stamford with vigor as a result of the action of the county com- misisoners in deciding to transfer a liquor license from a State street place to a water side location. The transfer was fought. stubbornly on the ground that the 6roposed location prominent citizens took part in the hearings and the action of the com missioners is said to have come as a surprise. The no-license campaign ar gument put forward now is that if the city should go no-license for one year it would decrease by 80 per cent, the number of saloons under the new license law.
 Killed on Track
 John Weyerhauser was killed We'd nesday, at Noroton, when he was struck by the 7:5s west bound train. At the time of the accident he was walking the tracks. It is believed that he did not see the train in time to avoid being struck. His head was crushed and the body badly mangled.
