Some sorts of embroidering is done on very
thin materials and for this purpose II will
be found that the use OF tissue paper is al
most indispensable. Before the material is
placed on the frame. hoop. or rings the tissue
paper is tasted to It attached to It with a
stray stitch OF very small size and each
knotted separately. so that they will appear
inconspicuous and not disturb the embroid-
erer In the course Of her work. This manner
of arrangement applies as well to silks as IT
does TO any OF the veil-Iike materials, the
6iaphanous qualities of which are required
in the scsrfs Of winter as well as for sum-
mer wear.
Every embroiderer knows that silks are
nigh unmanaseable and to keep II Of straight

A New Whim of Fashion
By HELEN BRANDT.

The FrenChW oman has turned her back
upon her diamonds and pearls for the time
being. They repose in the dim velvet and
morocco security OF her Jewel case. and not
even her pride in their beauty or becoming
ness can lure her into bringing them forth
TO glitter on her fingers and fash blue fire
in the Ioge OF the theater or the opera.
For the moment her affections are entirely
set on the semi-precious stone in its most
barbaric aspect
or these, the unquestioned favorite Of the
moment is Chinese amber
This is more like the clear amber than
the cloudy. and in some cases is Of tawry
reddish tint. while it is fashioned in the form
Of enormous chains. the beads of which grad
uate from the size Of a marble to that Of
pigeons egg. These globes OF yellow light.
which suggest crystallized sunbeams are in
terspersed here and there with great smooth
balls Of Jade. the opaque green OF which, in
the opinion Of most women. sets of the clear
golden brown OF the amber
Another fashionable fancy OF the moment
Is represented by the beads which are made
OF carved peachstones. These are also about
the size of the amber beads described above.

fumes Of magnolia musk and altar of roses

and three yards is by no means considered
out OF the way. The peachstones. however.
far more than the amber, require some colored
note to set them of. and a lovely effect IS
gained by huge polished beads of pink rock
crystal interspersed among them. with fine
silken cords In vivid blue Indian red. as
narrow as a thin Irvine, knotted between
them.
There Is, however. finish to these chains
which adds immensely 10 their charm. This
consists Of a great fat slab Of Jade. rock

workmanship, and has almost the effect 81

Sometimes 1t is carved in quaint cabalistic
figures or letters. or again. N the s!nlilitude
OF a goblin or prehistoric mascot. which
provides the pet fetish or lucky symbol Of
the wearer.
But even these chains of amber ard other
stones can hardly pit their popularity against
Jet
The immense favor with which black and
white is regarded in Paris has created
vogue. which almost amounts to a craze for
jet ornaments. Huge Jet pins are worn In
the hair which are composed Of a single
flower head with cut Jet petals and the inky
sparkle Of which makes a fascinating con-
trast TO golden or Titan red locks rolled
round the wearer's head There are. besides.
fi.Iets OF bisected cut jet beads. which are
adorned on one side with delicate spray Of
flowers or fern, and which make delightfHi
finish to evening dress.
The favorite Of all. however. is the let
crown. Women whose Jewel case is in some
thing the condition Of Mother Hubbard's
cupboard. and who have longsd in vain for
the luxury OF a diamond tiara, or even a
diamond hair ornament Of a more modest
description. are welcoming the vogue In ques-
ton. which puts fashionable tiara of the
moment we'll within the scope OF the lean
purse. The vogue is an immensely becoming
one and the ingenuity Of the creators Of
these Jet crowns has been taxed to the utter
most to produce as many and various de-
signs as there are in the realm Of the dia-
mond tiara itself and Of a delicacy and
daintiness equal to these.
One of the prettiest design, consist Of
double row Of miniature oyster shells. in
the center Of each OF which glistens and
glitters a simulated pearl fashioned Of Jet
cut into a dozen facets.

A HOSPITAL
To Be One Of The Improve
mentS OF A Better And
Bigger HOpkinSVille.

The Christian County Medical So
ciety met yesterday and the climax
to an otherwise interesting meeting
was the discussion of hospital for
Christian county.
This has been needed for long
time and has been talked many
times in our Society, resolutions
were passed yesterday that in sub
stance were,
That, it was a reflection on the
Medical Profession of our city, as
vel as upon our citizens that we
had no hospital.
Tha The only way to have one
was tu cooperate with each other
and the citzs,s and do everything
in our power to arouse the proper
enthusiasm and public sentiment for
a hospital.
That: Each and every member was
constituted committee to put his
shoulder to the wheel and do all in
bis power to accomplish this.
That: A committee of six be ap-
pointed to formulate plans for rails
ing the necessary funds to build
and equip hospital.
To confer with citizens, fraternal
orders, churches. pastors and all
organizations working for better
and bigger Christian county, and
HOpkinsvile.
To be prepared to furnish esti-
mates ON cost, maintenance, and
etc., of a first class Hospital ade-
uuate for the needs of the city.
This information to be gathered
and report to be made to the So
ciety at a call meeting, if necessary,
or at the regular monthly meeting
in May.
This committee was appointed
only after each member had agreed
that he would be an active member.
that they would meet no less than
once we ky, and that they would be
continu Ily on the job.
This committee met last evening
at 7:3D and spent two hours in plann
ing aid apportioning work to be
done by each member,
To day one body is visiting Hos
pital in city of like size as ours and
getting all the information possible
while all the others area doing some
special work on the proposition.
The: Slogan" adopted by this
committee is 1--WE must have
First Class Hospital in Hopkinsville.
The belief among the profession
is that a Hospital in this city will be
almost self sustaining. How often
has each and every citizen heard
his family physician deplore the fact
that we have no hospital; how many
of our citizens are suffering from
ailments that their family physician
could cure if he had properly ap-
pointed place in which to treat them,
and they are on account of the in
convenience, cost and the dread of
being away from home aid among
strangers, bearing them.
Other cities of our size have hos
pitfalls. and good ones too. They
have no better citizens than we. and
they are no more entitled to the good
things of this life than we are.
The city of Paducah, only a little
larger than we, spends SIS. 900 yearly
for her hospital; we need only a
small portion of that sum.
Now here is what We ask Of our
citizens; That Sou give this your
careful consideration; that when you
are approached on this subject that
you listen 70 it and consider the
proposition from every angle. and
oct according TO your best judgmen.
