CRITICAL FIoWezS.

Fashion Is responsible for many in
ventions, This is the case with the
manufacture of artificial flowers, for
their demand was due to a caprice of
fashion. In Italy during festival time
it was decreed that flowers should be
Worn in and out of their season, and
that their color should be retained.
Many plans fer solving the problem
" ere brought forward. and at last some
one hit upon the idea of making them
o. various materials which would re-
se4nbe the real flowers. Later, in the
Middle Ages, the artificial so far super
seeded the natural that both men and
women decked their heads with ir.lita-
tion flowers of cambric, glass paper,
wax, and metal. The mos beautiful
artificial blossoms are made in Paris,
and their making is one of the chief in
duStries of that city.
