Because samplers fit in m weU with r** furniture of the periedror perhaps hocauae *o many of*the old onea treat*- ured In“this country are the handi­ work of early American homewlves, they have come to be regarded as "colonial.*- The fact Is, however, that together with other manners and cus­ toms samplers were simply trans­ planted from the other side, brought hy the Industrious women who found In their exquisite stitching the .self- expression for which colonial life nf-. forded scant outlet. The earliest known sampler Is one dated 1C4S which Is now In a museum 1°.London, it is elaborately embroid­ ered In the needle-point and gros- polnt which are today so popular with the woman of fashion for decorating her hand bag and 'other accessories, It Is to the sampler, incidentally, that the modern petit-point and gros-polnt are said to owe their origin, How this strip of embroidery came to he named a "sampler" Is by no means the least Interesting part of Its story. We learn that the craze for fliie needlework In the Seventeenth cen­ tury was met with a-great scarcity and costliness qf books of pattern. Therefore, designs were worked onto pieces of materials which were'called "samplers.” , '. v (Copyright) • ' ' Daphne and the Doll* By DOROTHY DOUGLAS (Copyright.} FOR THE GOOSE- I F T H E la st a p p le (a sou r, th e w h ole b o x w a s spur. 0 ,A womau oughta be allowed to be­ gin countin’ her age from the day she was first kissed.

T. MAXEY * O SSS*S***X*S8 WMU Borvtco A City Hall Extraordinary P hiladelphia is a big city. Obvi­ ously a big city ball was needed to care for its affairs. Accordingly, work was begun In the •arty seventies, at the cross-roads of Broad and Market streets, on a mon­ strous structure which has proved to be the most strikingly outstanding dvic building In all 'America. Built of Massachusetts marble on a granite base, It is rich In exterior dec­ oration, Constructed in the form of a great hollow square, It has a very targe central court. Including this Court, it occupies about six and one- half acres, of ground. The design is such that while It ap­ pears to be but four stories In height, the interior Is divided Into eight floors, composing some fourteen and one-half acres of floor space, which Is cut up into more than five hundred f&omar, Its nlneiy-foot-blgh walla*are sur- mouatsd by entrance pavilions which are flanked by corner pavilions. A great central tower rises out of the court. This tower is ninety feet square at the base and Is crowned by a thirty-seven-foot statue of William pans—the fonndef of the city, making the maximum height, some say, about «ve hundred and forty-eight feet. Fear giant clock dials, having min­ ute heads eleven feet long and weigh- tug upwards of two hundred pounds sack, tell the lime to passers by.

The act was a very ordinary one for 1Daphneusuallywentinto the tea-room I at midday. | To Vantyne, who saw her Crum the ; table where ha was lunching, it^meaat ! a sadden sense of elation. - ^Daphne’s hair was the color of cop­ per in the firelight and her entire cos­ tume, even to th* low heels of her exquisite shoes, was of the identical shade-pure, unblemished copper. “Why on esrth can’t more glrla know what they look well In?** mused Vantyne, and while Daphne studied her menn his heart thumped for he caught sight of an enormous topaz on her engagement linger, He followed her out when she left the tea-room because he felt that he absolutely must watch where she went; —it seemed the most vital thing lit life—that he should know something more of this wonder girl. He aaw her stop for a memeat In front of a toy shop and an amused smile, flitted across her lips at something she saw, A second later altqhad vanished Into one of the great buildings that bouse, for one thing,, the exquisite premises of "Lewis,”' a name to conjure -up dreams of loveliness^ to the feminine heart and nightmares of bills to the maflcollne mind. In the center,of the window was a doll dressed In the exact costume that the girl herself was wearing. There war* other dainty dresses for dolls, all extremely artlsfio. Vantyne went forthwith into the Bhop and demanded to gee the do!) In the window... “The one. dressed in brown," bemadded-feeling frightfully embarrassed since he had never bought a doll In hla. life. Then, because the girl aervtng him was’ young and happy like, himself, ha . sked all about the doll and was told that a young lady of.the staff of Lewis designed the costumes after those of Lewis. "We have the sole right to the dresses Miss Watersoa makes,” the girl added, not without a touch of pride. "Would It be possibly for me to In­ terview the young lady! I would like a lot of dolls, like this, for—er—my nieces,” Vantyne was not too good at fabrication and stumbled a bit “The business would go through you, of course” he supplemented. Vantyne unconsciously selected his most uti-ocious tie and sallied to the address of MisS' Waterson that very evening. When Daphne entered the boarding- ' house lounge and saw her caller, H. Vantyne, a queer little smile came Into her eyes. Much lay behind that smile, but Vantyne was not to know about if- just then. He was so consumed with the joy of seeing her again that lie almost tors got the ruse that bad brought about the meeting, 1 . - "Miss Waterson,” 1he said, *T have come to you on a matter of business apd hope you wilt pardon the liberty, i got your address from the toy .shoi>—r” “Oil,” laughed Daphne as she seated herself beside him, “then you have seen iny dolls. Lewis, one of whose mannequins I am, Is good enough to let me,copy tunny of his dresses and gives tne nil the materials to do it with. You like them, do you?” ' “ Like isn’t the word,” laughed Vantyne. ‘‘I waited to' know if yoU would-be so good’ os to make dozens of them for my nieces and nephews?” “Nephews don’t play with dolls,” said Daphne, "But—how old are all these nieces and what size dolls would you want?” Vantyne was completely lost among Ills various nieces and the amber of Daphne’s eyes. “Oh, all sizes,” he told her and grinned boyishly. Daph­ ne, too, smiled with much understand­ ing. “Well, If you like to select the dolls 1will be only too glad to dress tbera. 1 love the work and it helps my in­ come a whole lot. 1send a good deal back to my folks, out West, "Would you be likely to help dm buy the dolls—you see I don’t quite know the type most suitable for dress­ ing—besides I never bought a doll in ray life except one.” “Do you mean to tell me," asked Daphne accusingly, "that with those scores of little nieces you have never bought any one of them a doll?” I always got them parasols and tea-sets and—a—Jumping ropes,” Vantyne stammered. "But I intend giving them dolls from now on—that Is if I can come along from time to time and see that the work is going on in a satisfactory way.” He paused white Daphne tried desperately not to laugh, "I could' send them from time to time for your inspection,” she said, “It Would save you the trouble of—” "I don’t want to be saved tb* trouble of coming,” said Vantyne. “Your tie,” said Daphne suddenly and with released laughter, “is even worse than the one you had In the tea-room at lunch and I don’t believe you have a niece In the world,” “I haven’t,” said Vantyhe, and when Daplme swiftly lowered her eyelids he had the Joy of noticing that th* ring she wore on her engagement Unger was a lovely sapphire.
