NOVELTY IN CENTERPlECES.

cry Hoops - They Are Made of
French Oicloth, Which Is Used as
Foundation Stretcher.
Now is the time to do some advance
work for Christmas
The new designs in art needlework
are practical. The materials are wash
able and durable, and the most promi-
nent stitches are those which require
the least labor. The busy woman of to-
day likes designs which quickly and
easily give effective results.
Linens and crashes in white and nat
ural tones are seen in centerpieceS,
dresser scarfs and pillow covers.
Dresser scarfs and pin cushions in
white pique have scalloped edges and
embroidery done in color.
Coronation and Torpedo Braids.
Coronation braid is used in combina-
ton with torpedo braid. Some pretty
effects are in daisy designs, with the
centerS worked in color in long and
short stitch outlined with torpedo
braid
Darning. or Persian embroidery as it
is called, is given quite slant, produc-
| ing a decidedly new appearance. The
| designs and colors are in Persian eff
| fects, and the darning stitch is worked
| over n tinted background. Many of the
| pillow covers, table runners and dress
| er scarfS are good limitations of Per

Given the freedom we possess the
result is invariably the same-they
cannot protect themselves against

the wiIes of men.
But It is our independence that has

l know of one of them. She was
a stenographer in Mexico and came
to this country. She received here
what is the equivalent of $50 in Mex
leo, yet she was always in debt and
never could get out Of it. She bought
extravagant clothes in an effort to
dress like other women, not necessar-
lily. the women with whom she
worked, but the women she saw on
the streets.
Again, our lives require 80 much

The same thing prevails in the
gown section. A saleswoman l

that her gowns never cost less than
$40 and $35.
Perhaps Madame will say that that

changed from Dreamwold to Samoset- on
Lake Lamoille, owing to the fact that a
certain prominent place near Boston goes
by the name of Dreamwold The new
name is particularly applicable since the
cottages are all named after the Pill
grims, and the name of the Indian who
welcomed them at Plymouth was Samo-
set. Tan bark walks and drives have
been built to every cottage and a club
house has been added. The last cottage
has been rented for the summer, going
