Importance, but we use the greatest possible
care that the graduating shall be exceedingly
accurate, In addition to manufacturing from
the best quality of raw silk, the evenness OF
thread and beauty of finish of the manufactured
article will not, we think, be soon surpassed .
Each spool of silk manufactured by us, of any
particular size or letter irrespective of weight,
