rure, and perhaps tell you it's value as
well. But she has very little knowledge
OF the comparative value of her lace
tiounces and capes. She calls one piece
Mechlin and another Valenciennes.
She talks readily enough of the Venetian
rose and 'guipure Espagnol,' but on the
whole all lace worth having is roughly
described by her as point If the name
of a place is added it is usually wrong,
being often only conjectural. For this
and other similar reasons there is no
fabric of the kind which derives its mar
ket value from its beauty. There is no
other art production which stands SO
much on its own merits. If a work
woman at Honiton could make a piece of
lace as beautiful as some designed and
worked some 200 years ago in Italy, she
could get as much for it, modern though
it be, as the older work would fetch.
Really fine lace can only be produced
at an expenditure of time, trouble, eye
sight, and actual skill and talent which
give it, ancient or modern, value apart.
There is nothing but the expense to pre-
vent our seeing better lace now than has
ever been seen before; and, though it is
not at all likely, it is quite evident that a
few worthy specimens of what ladies
can do who have taste and leisure will
go down to posterity from the lace-mak-
ers of the present day"

Dot was so frightened when she had
read this that she tumbled down off the
chair on TO the floor.
Her mother heard the noise and came
running up.
Has grandma gone?" were Dots first
words.
"Grandma has not been here" said
her mother, taking her on her lap.
Then Dot sobbed out her story; and
her mother smiled as she said:
&c think my little girl has been asleep
and dreaming"

in delight. ''Ohl I'm SO glad cause l

no things in my letter. So, mamma, if
you'll give me clean piece of paper I'll
write ink into it, and I'll tell grandma
that do like dreams when you find out
they are not true"
In few moments Dot was busily labor
ing away at the fresh letter; and when it
was all done and sealed and sent through
the mail. and grandma opened and read
it, she smiled SO many times and kissed
the crooked little words so fOndly that,
if Dot had seen her, she would have
thought that if any of her thinks" had
