THE HOTEL SQUATTER

Los Angeles hotels banishng the lobby squatters,
boldly assailng ancient and widespread pest.
This type of deadbeat Los Angeles said to be usually
tourist who has inexpensive somewhere and eats
in the cafeerias and spends much of his remaining time
filling the comfortable chairs in the lobbies of good hotels
The hotels naturally want those chairs for their guests
who crowded out by the parasite squater So
tendans nruders with eagle eye and when they be-
too regular in their improbable patronage slip them
little printed cards requesting them to loaf elsewhere They
usually take the hint.
1t is bold step business that is timid about offend

Color Suggestions.

rs our garden going to be made up
of real old-fashioned flower beds with
all the colors massed together or is it
going TO be planned according to a
color scheme?" l asked.
There is no objection and much
beauty in old-fashioned flower beds of
many colors," said Mr.. Burbank, pro
vided certain unharmonious colors are
kept out of it or separated by foliage
and groups of white flowers"
Among these are magenta and
many shades of red, scarlet and Grim
son that clash with the more delicate
shades Of pink or lavender, and which
make too much noise when planted
with yellow and orange flowers"
ut is quite study to arrange COL
ors harmoniously in. a border or a
small garden and to consider at the
same time the seasons and succession
of bloom, isn't it" l remarked.
"All successful gardening requires
thought and study" answered Mr..
Burbank, "but the results will repay
the time, thought and work.
First. we must study the seasons
and from the plants selected for the
garden make one list for the Spring
blooming plants and another of the
Summer bloomers and a third of those

The shampoo must be thorough,
and should be done as often as neces-
sary. If the hair grows so oily that
a weekly washing is needed, then
shampoo once a week, but treat the
scalp with tonics and massage, so that
the super-oily condition is overcome.
If the hair is very dry so that you
have no guide when to shampoo, do
it once in three weeks, and give the
scalp an oil rub a day or so before.
Short hair needs more frequent sham
pooing than long.

For such an astringent, mix to-

to be real light, Peter reached the
dear Old Briar Patch, he sat around
outside for q while. He was trying
to think up excuses. Somehow he
didn't want to face little Mrs. Peter.
He knew just what she would say,
and he didn't want to hear it, That
truth. You know the truth isn't pleas
ant to listen to sometimes.
So Peter sat just at the entrance to
one of his private little paths into the
dear Old Briar Patch and scratched a
long ear with a long hind foot until
il was a wonder he didn't scratch tRat
long ear off. But with all this
scratching he couldn't scratch a sin
gle good excuse into that funny head
of his. He was so occupied that he
failed to see or hear any one ap,
preaching, with the result that he
was startled into making a long jump
by a voice close to him.
"Oh, Peter" said the voice. II have
such a wonderful surprise for your

turned and led the way into the dear
Old Briar Patch.
Of course Peter followed. He was
so surprised at not being scolded that

she doesn't seem to know that I've
been away" he muttered to himself.
NOW L wonder why. She acts just
as If she hadn't missed me- I'll have
to look into this. Yes, sir, I'll have to
look into this. If she hasn't been
lonesome and missed me 1 want to
know why. 1 don't like it,
Could you have overheard Peter you
would have thought him actually dis
appointed at not being scolded, and
at not having to give an account of
what he had been doing and where he
had been. You would so. But little
Mrs. Peter appeared not to notice that
Peter was grumpy and a little out of
sorts. She led the way to a certain
place in the very heart of the dear
Old Briar Patch.
"Shh," whispered little Mrs Peter.
Don't make a noise, Peter" Then
she lifted covering of dry grass, and
there in snug and comfortable nest
lined with fur from her own breast
lay six little pink babies with their
eyes tightly closed, not sign of a
fur coat on them
Aren't Sthey perfectly lovely, Pc
ter?" sighed little Mrs. Peter. Aren't
they the loveliest babies you ever
saw? I'm SO proud of them 1 don't
know what to do. Aren't you proud
of them, Peter?'
Now what could Peter say? His
honest opinion was that they were
the homeliest babies he had ever laid
his eyes on. But he knew it wouldn't
do to say so. Goodness no. What do
you think he did say? He said,
Whose are they, my dear?''
why they are yours; yours and
mine, stupidr' replied little Mrs.
Peter. Aren't they just too lovely
for anything?''
They must be, my dear, as long as
they are yours replied Mr.. Peter,
which, when you think of it, was a
very clever thing for him to say.

Butterflies have been favorite mo-
tifs for needlework patterns for CEN
turies. In far-off centuries the Chi
nese used this dainty little f1uttering
insect with its gorgeous wings as a
motif to be wrought with painstaking
care into borders or rugs. These de-
signs are frequently so conventional
iZed that one not familiar with rug
motifs would scarcely recognize them
as the lithesome creatures that seem
to float on the wings of the wind
through meadows and fields. Some
times the motifs are mere outlines
and again the contours are carried out
in solid colors, but they are never
given the realism found in silken en-
broideries.
1t is when needlework assumes the
beauty of brilliant colors blended to-
gether in one unbroken mass of deli
cate stitches that the true splendor of
butterflies wings in actual hues can
be initiated. To do such embroidery
is a work to take the skill of the fin
est needlewoman, and one that may
well battle the amateur embroidery
worker. Not only must stitches be
true and of the finest, but color har-
monies must be appreciated in all
their delicacy of melting shades that
drift from one hue to another Also
the needlewoman must know just
when to strike the note of sharp con-
trast seen in the nothing of butter
flies. One of these winged creatures,
done with absolute accuracy in
threads of finest silk, is a work that
any embroiderer may well be proud to
have to her credit.
Beauty Caught in Meshes.

IN THE GARDEN WITH BURBANK


through the year. Some gardens make
a wonderful display in the Spring, but
are dull and lifeless all through the
Summer, although each month has its
blooming plants"
II think a small garden" I inter
Jected, lis all the more satisfactory if
carefully planned, as everything is so
close together; there are no masses of
green or distances to help out any
mistakes"
Simplicity and restfulness must be
kept in mind" said Mr.. Burbank,
and we might take our Spring bloom
ing plants first.
The plants themselves should be
selected first and then If they bloom
in more than one color. and desired
hue may be chosen which will har.
monize with the color scheme.
This is partial list which may be
extended for more extensive garden

let's (purple). violas Cblue and yellow.

And for the shrubs the yellow for.

anese dwarf fruit trees, apples
peaches and cherries. in pink and
white, with the pink hawthornes, the
towering currants, the white spireas
the white and pink weigelias and the
white snowballs and mock orange
ITO this list might be added peonies
and some of the early blooming iris
and from 1t we might make very hap.
by combinations for a spring garden
as there are no clashing colors in
early spring and all the flowers and
bulbs and early shrubs would be on
friendly terms.
"One might possibly separate the
gorgeous red tulips from the rest of
the family and plant them with blue
forget-me-nots or with white flowers
and so keep peace in the garden fam

fashions is usually forecast. But no
one could have foreseen then the ex.
tent Of their present appeal to we'll
dressed women.
One reason for their appeal to the
conservative woman of good taste is
that coat Of this description can be
worn correctly for a topcoat over a
sport frock with sport accessories or
as a covering for the dainty afternoon
frock. For informal evening wear in
summer such a coat Is also appro-
PIRATE.
The sketch shows a white flannel
coat worn over white crepe de chine
sport frock. A green tie finishes the
frock and green flower gives dis
tinction to the jaunty white cane car
ried as an accessory. Green and
white checkered Isle sport stockings
further add a touch of verdancy to the
ensemble.
Flannel is a favorite material for
the white coats, but they are also
round in silk crepes and faille as well
as in white kasha, cheviot, twill and
other ribbed woolen materials. There
are. to be sure. white coats with the
wide banding of fur around the hem
that is so characteristic of coats this
season, but a large proportion OF these
coats are of a too severely tailored
species to permit this.
One young woman who is known
among her friends as quite expert at
keeping very complete wardrobe on
what the women's magazine editors
politely call a limited income" con.
siders the white coat decidedly good
investment. To be sure, she agrees,
it may be a passing fad. out OF style
by another Sumer, but at small cost
the white coat can be dyed in another
year to play quite a different role in
next Summers wardrobe.

so many various uses to which the
butterfly motif can be put that to
enumerate all of them would be some
thing of a task.
Choice Design.
The design that has been especially
made for readers of this paper is the
embodiment of grace. The care with
which the wings have been developed,
the body traced and the antennae in.
dicated leave nothing to be desired in
the matter of lightness. The butterfly
seems to float and drift through the
interstices of the mesh. No color is
required to make one realize it's
beauty. There is no doubt but others
beside those who requested a butterfly
design will be eager to include the
motif among their collection of filet
crochet designs.
