The pattern will be transferred with
out difficulty.
Sural tha way la easy.
Thimble and Needje
WHAT kind of thimble do yoa
veer
Too much care cannot M
given In tba selection of a tblmbla.
Inflammation and often very aor apota

lessly chosoa tblmblar a cheap IU or
one' that la th leaat bit rough at tha
dgt.
silver tblmblea ara tha Met, but
for Ihoa that cannot have on,
choose ateel or celluloid thimble.
Be careful that It la large enough to
fit tha finger without pressing It too
tightly either on th tip or around
tbe edge. Good work cannot be dona
with a thimble that la uncomfortable.
Many women use an ordinary em
broidery needle when embroidering
with allk. Thia la Incorrect, for it
la sure to roughen the silk and make
the work untidy. Use a' long-eyed
embroidery needle. Number I or 10
Is best for fllo silk, which la used
on llnena, lawna and fine cloth.
For heavy llnena us No. ( and for
butcher's linen No. T. Alao use No.

Use French knots . In the little ovale

ver threads are also employed In-thia '
werk, fnaklng. mast a active ulnunlAsT

Pearl beads, glass beads and all sorts
of Imitation Jewels are used In the deco
ration. The groundwork Is given -a
damascened effect by darning In irreg
ular lines with strands of colored floss.

A Linen gedspread
IF TOU hays'" fallen heir to one of
tha large homespun linen sheets
that once belonged to your mother
and to her mother before her, why not
ymake yourself a handaome bedspread
that will be valuable cot only for tta
beauty, but also as a family heirloom
and keepsake?
There ar women who nave the eld
Unc.n aheeu carefully laid away In Uasua
paper; they are brought out only on
state occasions and are then wrapped
In lavender and put back in their hid-
. Ing place to grow yellow with age.
. Hava the sheet stamped all tba way
. around the edge with soma attractive
floral design, or you can mark It your
self by drawing faint circles with
hard lead pencil, outlining1 a dinner
plat and around th circle sketching a,
leaf or floral pattern.
It you do th marking; yourself, be
aure to stretch th linen carefully over
the table . or lapboard,', holding It In
place with ,plns or thumbtacks. Measure
carefully the distance between the circles 1
and tbe number of incbe from tbe hem, '
tsklng care that th design .Is perfectly
even. Outline the design or embroider
It with linen thread, finish tha edge with '
wide lace or hemstitch It all the way
. around and you will have a spread that'
will laat for years and also M a Joy to
you and tM envy of your friends.
Side-Pleated Frills .
SHIRTWAIST frills that aia pleatei
Into a band that 1 tacked inside
the blouse opening are a great
trouble unless you hava a maid to hasta
down each pleat hefor th frill goes to
he laundry, . ,
Tou can make your own frills by run.
nlng small horlaontal tucks, in Una cam
brie, lawn or linen, 1ft inches from, tha
border of lace or embroidery,
Ftrs cut th frill three times as Jons;
aa your blouse from neck to waist line,
then hem the edge and sew-on a lac
edging. Tou can run-... row of Insertioa
tnolde this If you wish, and then tuck
In quarter-lnoh tuck horizontally all th
way down. Bind with a narrow pieca
of material.
Thia way will be found far less trouble
to iron, for th pleats can be laid as
you press them, and when the frill is
attached to the blouse It will fall in
; graceful ruffle on one aide.
; Irish Centerpieces
OF ALL the different styles of em
broidery on centerpieces, dollies
and lunch cloths, irloh embroid
ery la the most serviceable. It will
stand twice tha wear and tear that any
other kind will endure, and after years
of use will look as fresh and well a
when It. was new. The work is :ellt .;y

the padding often being done with t. r
blta of 'raw cotton or ee filled in i
darning thread. Over this the imdf
