The celebrity with which under mod

record of 30,0OO,OOO cubic yards of OK
cavation may be reached without re-
quirlng greater output per shovel or
greater speed in working than has al.

the statement that ut this rate of

Paraguay should be rich and pros.

of Uruguay and 1t has many natural
sources of wealth. as in Its immense

Of government is plumber and who
often defy the central administration

prodigious sums abroad. largely In

meeting their obligations. And, more
over, many municipalities are head
over heels in debt. These are the sict

The Result of the Genius of Darbnrn
Uttmnn OF Snxony.
A little known example Of inventive
genius IN woman is that afforded by
Barbara Uttman of SaXony md her
point lace SO long In fashionable use all
over the world. She invented tho proc
css and apparatus for manufacturing;
this beautiful hundiworls. which has
since given employment to millions of
operators and which, in Its line, has
never been cxcelled. The apparatus
looks like long pincushion brlstling
with pins arranged to outline the pat
tern or design. The operator manages
from ten to fifty peculiar spools, allow
Ing the thread to feed over the pins al
ternately until the design is completed.
The spools or bobbins are purposely Of
different colors, so as to be easily dis
tinguishable. The process is slow and
difficult to learn. Miss Uttmnn found
cd schools where thousands learned It.
Since her time, when inventive ability
was rnrc even among men, her ideds
have been Incorporated in the construc
tion Of machinery by which the lace Is
produced at wonderful lower rates, and
yet Barbara Uttmans lace still sur
passes all. London Queen.
