ed by chance smear of paint"
Having wondered about it myself,
decided to sift the problem and while
relieving my own mind, put yours a,
rest too.
1T is very simple was told by an
artist who has reaped a harvest from
the vogue for hand-painted decoration
on clothes. Care, much care, is nee
essary. Why is any work of tar not
smudgedy' he shrugged. This is true.
Carefulness is an important factor in
painting on fabric, but found out that
the worker is aided to success by a
trick of the trade"
A rim of hot beeswax is applied
around the edge of the design to be
painted, making protective little fence
around the area that is to blossom later
with rare flowers and birds. After
the painting is finished, the wax is re-
moved with gasoline. The stems of
flowers, for instance, and other un-
shaded parts of the design are put in
with sweeping strokes of soft, col
ored pencil that gives the effect Of
paint.
1t is just as the artist said, "a mat
ter of care He might have added
that a dash of technique also helps to
make the flowers ana quaint little fig
ures on painted fabrics behave as they
should.
Not only flowers, animals and fan
tastic figures are brought into the
scheme of painted decoration, but land
scapes that include all of these, and a
pagoda or two to boot, are pressed into
service to achieve novelty. This quaint
idea has been seized upon by the art
list who painted the creation pictured
herewith.
A very slip, wrappy afternoon coat
of white slid is startlingly decorated
with a Chinese pattern in soft greens
and browns mingled with warm tones
of cream and red. The Chinese pa
CODA motif not only appears upon the
skirt and sleeves of the coat but the
hat too has a similarly decorated scarf
swathed about the crown. A luxuri-
Gus collar and border of white fox add
the last touch of extravagant trimming
to the ensemble.
The outfit pictured is rather ex.
IRENE expression of the vogue for hand
painted things. To be sure, it is sim
ply a novelty and / doubt if there are
many girls who would care to pay the
price of a dozen coats for the priv
lege of wearing this one.
Just now, however, a painted scarf
or a frock showing a touch of painted
work appears frequently. Some OF
them are quite lovely too. The dis
Greet designs are often charming, but
when it comes to trailing floral de-
sign on a frock, watch out. Unless
you have undeniable chic, do not at
tempt to wear it, for it is apt to give
one a bedraggled, untidy appearance,
If you are sure you possess that elu-
sive charm, you are safe in choosing
almost anything, and lovely painted
creation could only accentuate that ap-
pealing quality in your makeup.

COURT Ex0NERATES
DR.. CHARLES HUNT
Dismissed Disorderly Conduct
Charge Against Physician Who
Rebuked Policemen. .-

Standing room only marked a hear
ing in the District of Columbia
branch of the Police Court today in
the case of DR.. Charles Hunt, 1904
New Hampshire avenue northwest,
on a charge of disorderly conduct.
DR. Hunt had been arrested on Penn
sylyania avenue. after having pro-
tested to two policemen, remonstrat-
ing with them for their treatment of
a drunken man, charging the officers
with beating their prisoner without
cause.
The police department was largely
represented among the spectators. DR.
Hunt appeared with three witnesses
to show that the only offense he had
committed was to make a protest
against the cruel and brutal treat
ment, as he charged. of the officers
to their prisoner.
Judge Mcmahon. hearing the case
dismissed it, after saying that even
the witnesses of the government had
clearly shown that DIR. Hunt had only
protested against the alleged brutal
treatment of the policemen TO their
prisoner and did not constitute a
case of disorderly conduct, and that
others in the crowd at the time had
made similar protests. DIR. Hunt tes-
tilted that he was roughly handled by
Policeman j. X. Milstead and later,
when arrested by Policeman D. W.
Rosser, was again roughly handled.
DR.. Hunt has placed the whole mat
ter before Police Commissioner Oys-
ter, and will, it is said, make charges
against Policeman Milstead for as
saulting him.

Barney Hanley, who has been min

Is reported to have struck good look

For fifty years prospectors have from
time to time found small pockets of
ore In the hills north of the river on
Beaver creek and Steuben, but no

1t is, Of course, within the bounds of
possibility that Mr.. Hanley has found
something here. Quite a number of
claims are being staked out in the
vicinity of the strike by those who
can get up the creek.
1t is reported that the crew working
