EMBROIDERY ON
 TOWEL ENDS

One of the newest things is the a jour embroidery on lhe ends of the eaels. This term is applied 10 any nmbroidery. wood carving or metal york which lets the light through. IL looks very much like punch work II a distance. but the threads are irawn be.ore being worked instead the new towels and linen generally it is combined with French embroid- some odd medieval figure or flower.
 Some of il is done on damask but the most of il is on the plain old fashioned fine linen The work is imported mostly from Saxony and Austria and is more effective than aFen the inset tilet
 The cheapest the easiest and the quickest way 10 decorate a towel is the old fashioned cross stitch
 II is q good idea to have designs of Fcar Initials iA cross stitch with the old fashioned rose buds running through it. as these are used inside the wreaths and also on the lace cloths and bath towels.
 It is customary to do towels ir pairs. anu tnIs saves Il great ueaI of time and thought not only in sewing but in buying.

dramatic pictorial represcntaf1ans O. big events transpiring under eHt' very noses.
 As an instance of the care taken to stick 10 facts, it Is interesting 3o know that the room in which Dete.e tive Burns appears in the first pat of the film is an exact duplication CT his New York office. The menner in which the dctectaphone is install cd is an accurate following of the method adopte! in actual practise The studio set used for the House of Representatives in Washin@ton re- quired what is said to he the lara- est stage ever used for motion picture production. and | was cor stmcted solely for few scenes in the final reel Ii is also interestna to note that ill the making of this picture last summer the players visited no less than five states for '4-' P'ti i''t'' VI sNN'AiiitH l'''4''i ~ tings. Incidentally il mas be men toned that expensive as the pro duction was, the total did not eqnAl the sum paid MT Burns for his first appearance In a motion picture.
 As for the story. il, too, Is based on facts Land swindlers as every body knows, have been genuine evil supported by powerful figures In Washington politics. They have meant suffering to the victims and disgrace to men high in public cs- tecm, jus as in this photoplay Even have been made more the outcome of condolences than would be likely III actual life. but their dramatic quality Is bout reflection of ac- counts read in newspapers.
 Very little acting Is required of Mr, Burns, whose place in the picture Is to appear precisely as he does in actual life. He behaves quite as naturally as though the camera was not focused on him. Alice Joyce deserves first mention in the sup porting company for finely judged performance of great sincerity and appeal She has beauty. polse, and a charming simplicity of mann ar Guy Coombs gives forceful inter- pretation of Gordon. and others Ill an efficient cast are Henry Hall am, Hal Clements. Marion Coop CT, and Kenean Buel, who merits great credit for his direction of the production-Mi Mirror.

 Every criminal leaves tra' !, through which he may be traced. There are no mysteries. and fail ti to o'idiu iHultdltS tll'it the matter has not been properly or thoroughly investigated These are the words of Detective William J. Burns as they appear over his oWl signature In The Exposure of the Land Swindlers. the three part Kalem picture to be released April l. This memorable little statement that says mystery is myth is the first arti- cle in the creed of the most as tonishng detective America has pro- duced; he has spent his life in prov ing it's value by the results of ac- tion, and out of the busy days he has taken time to illustrate the funda mentals of his creed in story that is half-truth, half-fiction and all-ab- sorplng
 In the romantic halo surrounding him, Detective Burns Is the twen tieth century Sherlock Holmes. To the public that reads Of his accon. plshments he has the irresistible fascination of the king of all flc- titious detectives. plus the fascina tion born of the knowledge that he is an actual being working among us What he has done reads like TO- nance. yet it is a page from the solid history of facts, and the nearer We come to facts the more We are moved.
