An EXQUISITE Material.

For muslins only this lace has been de-
signed, and it's foundation is a coarse
cream cotton net of Fedora or Brussels
weave. On the net is applied, in wreaths,
garlands or bouquets, a design of flowers
cut from printed lawn or organdie. Some
times a few stitches of embroidery are
added here and there, or a scrap Of lace
is woven in to complete a desired effect
With a little skill any woman can herself
make deep flounces, panels, revers or

with brown topaz incrustatons glttering

turned her head At her waist she wore a
large gold hook, handsomely ornamented
with tiny jewels From this were suspend

NOT THE SANDWICH ISLANDS.

Not a few papers on the mainland
of the United States persist in calling
Hawaii the Sandwich Islands" Why
they will persist in this English mis-
homer II is haro 20 understand. Ha-
waiian Islands is the official name
given to the group as Professor Alex
ander says from the largest island Of
the group. Captain Cook called them
the Sandwich Islands" after his pat
ron the Earl of Sandwich, but there
is nothing in the career of that gam
bier and proligate that should entitle
his Memory to be preserved by giving
his name TO these Islands. 1t is quite
honor enough to such a man that the
sandwich OF eating station fame 10
named for him. II was said Of him
during his lifetime that he was,
TOO infamous to have friend;
Too bad for had men to commend,
Or good to mention"
The story of the naming Of the
sandwich is thus told: John Mon
tagu, a member of the cabinets of Sir
Robert waipole and Lord North. was
a skillful diplomat and an astute
statesman, but he combined with
those qualities. dissolute personal
character. He was an inveterate
gambler. and while at Baln found him
self far too busy TO leave the card
room for his dinner. When, during
the excitement OF winning or losing
hunger asserted itself, he had the
serving man bring him a slice of beef
between two pieces of bread. This
munched without allowing his atten.
ton TO wander from the cards. Evi
IDENTIFY he was not the only man there
who begrudged time spent away
from the gaming tables. for others
soon adopted his idea and called for
a-well, they didn't know exactly
what to call for. so they named it IN
honor of its introducer. who, be
sides being John Montagu, was Ear
of. and therefore Lord. Sandwich.
Very naturally the people Of the
Hawaiian Islands resent the attempt
to fasten on their Paradise Of the
Pacific" the name of this dissolute
roue and gambler
