N tlie last couple of years the hand em ­
broidery craze has been spreading un­
til now every woman who cares to
make a good appearance, without being ex­
travagant, appreciates these dainty little
touches to her garments which hand em­
broidery adds. The work itself is very fas-
cinating, and many a dull and tedious hour
during the winter months can be spent very
profitably on this kind of work, and any
one can render themselves proficient in this
kind of needle craft with due persistence
and a little time. No wardrobe is complete
nowadays without one or two pieces of
clothing bearing this evidence of daintiness,
and to make everything as simple as pos­
sible we are offering our readers of this
page a pattern which can be very easily
transferred to any kind of fabric or wood,
and which should appeal to every economi­
cal woman, in the fact that it would make a
clear, clean-cut pattern twelve or more
times. We will be pleased to furnish our
readers with these patterns for the sum of
ten cents in stamps or coin, and would be
glad to have them give it a try-out and see
if it is not the most convenient they have
ever used, as well as the most economical.

The Pleiades and Hyades
Written lor this Magazine,
HEN you look at the Eastern
sky in the early evening in No­
vember you will notice a small
group of stars covering a space a little
greater than that occupied by the new
moon. All are intensely white, but they
are of low magnitude for the most part
and seem to shine through a kind of veil
of suffused light. There are six stars
readily visible to the naked eye on a
clear night. Persons of exceptionally
good eyesight may see from one to five
more. There is an ancient legend which
was current among the Greeks that the
Pleiades were seven sisters, who for their
goodness and beauty were placed among
the stars. One of them, however, loved
a mortal and. in consequence, retired
abashed from view. Hence, no more than
six afterward were visible. How this le­
gend originated would require more space
for discussion than may be given here.
It is enough to say that those persons
who declare that they can sec the seventh
star are by no means agreed as to which
is the star of the several hovering on the
edge of naked-eye visibility. They often
still are called the Seven Sisters. A good
opera glass will show about twenty stars.
W
One star, brighter than the rest, is named
Alcyone.
A small telescope wilt show additional
stars, until, in the great observatory tele­
scopes, no less than two thousand are to
be seen. Observations begun more than
sixty years ago and patiently followed,
showed, when about fifty years had passed,
that there was an actual association among
the stars, that is, that they are revolving
about each other. The displacement was
of the scry slightest after those years, so
slight, in fact, that it could not be meas­
ured. answering to what is called, in
chemistry, a trace. It is clear from this
that the evolution must take a vast period
of time, numbering tens of thousands of
years. When w-e reflect further on the
giant masses of these distant suns and re­
flect that even at a distance of thousands
of millions from each other, the revolu­
tionary- movements must be many miles a
second, we may gain some idea of tlie stu­
pendous scale on w hich is constructed this
object which glitters as an ornament to
our autumn skies. Tlie whole gronp, or
at least a great part of it. is wrapped in
glowing hydrogen. The name Pleiades,
notwithstanding the pretty legend, is de­
rived from Greek pteion "sail," from the
fact that tlie easily recognized group was
of great use to the sailors in those days
before the magnetic compass. From the
earliest days they were noted and many
religious observance- marked their appear­
ance in the evening sky. The Hallowe'en
observances and, stranger still, the date
ive have chosen for our November elec­
tions, may be traced to the ancient regard
for tit" Pleiades.
The Pleiades belong to the constella­
tion Tarns, the second constellation of
the zodiac. Following them, at about an
hour's interval, is the sister group, known
as the Hyades. This is a V-shaped figttr
having at the end of one arm the gre
red star Aldebaran. The Hyades were
sisters of the Pleiades, according to the
ancient legend, and were foster-mothers
to Bacchus, after the death of his own
mother. Aldebaran is receding from its
at the rate of thirty miles a second, but
being already more than a hundred mil­
lion miles away from us, its rate of reces­
sion will not make any difference in ap­
pearance for very many thousands of
years. The star next to Aldebaran is one
of those rarities, a naked-eye double.
That is, it appears as a single star on or­
dinary occasions, but on exceptionally
clear nights it is shown as a pair of glit­
tering stars very close together
The
whole group is extremely beautiful and
interesting and well repays study
