q. Lppe is from Dresden. Germany:
where the china is made" as the blind
pedant would explain. The parenthetical
remark would be singularly applicable in
Herr LiDDe's case for china is a heredi
t2r.- trait with him. He could not resist
making china If he were so inclined, for
his ancestors were china makers from
dim dates when those who drank out of
stone mugs instead of pewter ladies had
to be content with stone indeed
and not the shell-like ware that
IS now world famous as Dresden
handicraft. So with Herr Lippe who
Knows more about the history Of china
than some people do about Greek myth
ology. One might sit down in the
knutsford by the hour and listen, fasci-
mated to the romance that Herr Lippe
Weaves goblin-like about the evolution of
our tea-cuDs. Perhaps no one else in
America but Herr Lippe and those who
read these lines. will know that there is
certain witchery about old ware turned
out in Dresden in the 18th century. 1t
was said that all the finest porcelain
baked in that town was bewitched- A
certain forest maiden was put to death
in some of the banks from whence the
clay was obtained. The girl was punished
for crime which her innocence betrayed
her into. After that persons in Dresden
who used cups made from those banks
declared that by rubbing the dampened
finger around the rim of the vessel, one
might hear the song of the maid Various
other stories were adrift as a consequence
Of this death.
At Herr Lippe's country seat near
Dresden is a cabinet of rich wood, con-
tainin- sample of every years manu-
facture since the time of Lippe & Son
began to fashion the tastes OF china
lovers in styles and qualities. Side by
side with the most delicate bss OF
modern porcelain, SO tnln that the sun
light steals through the texture, may be
seen the heavy stone ware of a century
ago, ornamented with those symbols that
mean so much TO the German heart.
