Observation-Disclosures

NO one fails to appreciate the charm
OF the lace-trimmed and fluffy night
dresses that make up the mass of
these garments. Always their pro-
ducers are presenting new designs
that captivate the eye with the dainty
combination OF ribbons and laces.
But there is another charm which be-
longs to the hand-embroidered gown
1t is the charm of elegance as well as
beauty. There is nothing quite equal
to find hand embroidery in expressing
q refinement of taste, in undergar.
ments and other lingerie.
The needlewoman who can do fine
work can provide herself with lingerie
Mt for a queen by virtue of her needle
craft. Or II she wishes to turn her
accomplishment to profit she NAV be
sure that an appreciative world is
ready to admire-and pay for-expert
needlework. No one should put a low
price on first-class hand embroidery
not time alone. but ability to do and
quality Of workmanship are to be con.
sidered in fixing its price.

Just how the modish girl manages
to achieve certain things is the ques-
ton that engages the attention Of
other girls and inspires the wonder
ment and awe of the sterner sex. How
does she get on tiny turban over the
mass OF fluffy hair which crowned her
head aforetime? Where has said hair
disappeared? How does she take on,
with the foolish little turban, a no

exactly but makes one look twice to
be sure of her identity? Some of these
questions can be answered and some
cannot, because the maid herself hard
ly knows how she manages.
Just now some of the new hair
dressing styles demand that the fore
head shall be uncovered and that SIM
plicity in the couture be made a
feature of its attraction. Some daring
souls have even gone to the extreme
OF combing the hair straight back

CHIEF FLYNN'S FIRE ESCAPE

William Flynn, the secret service
chief. used to have ambitions to be
an inventor. His taste ran toward
getting up a new-fangled fire escape
that would fold up when not in use
and not seriously mar the appearance
of building. He felt that IL he could
Just do something to save a few dis
tracted persons caught in burning
buildings he would not have lived in
vain. Being a resourceful person.
Flynn thought and thought about the
proposition until finally he got a plan
all worked out. He showed his draw
fngs to several friends, who declared
that 1t was thoroughly practical. All
that remained to be done was to have
the thing patented and then sit back
and reap the fortune that was his.
One afternoon he was strolling
across Brooklyn bridge on his way
to look at a piece of property he was
going to buy when the money began
to pour in from the new fire escape.
He CHANGED to glance across at a build.

SOME HELPFUL HINTS

Roses Of all kinds should be thor

manure and mulched with lawn cut

Liquid manure should be applied
only when the ground Is moist enough
to absorb 1t.
1t is fatal to some plants to fertilize
them with rich manure when the
ground Is very dry.
Never allow roses to remain on the
bush until the petals begin to fall.
