Figures and facts are given in todays
Herald indicating that local lumber
dealers anticipate an early upward
movement of lumber prices. They state
as a reason that the former abnormally
large supply of lumber has lately been
worked off at the lower prices, and that
the demand and supply will cause an
increase in the rates. The facts should
be sufficient to warrant those intending
to build to make their purchases at

IN THE NEW WORSTEDS,
Suggestion for Model for Wear in the
Early Autumn.

For early autumn wear a striking
model might be carried out in the
new striped worsted, the skirt being
laid in plaits all around the waist
line, with the front panel in one very
broad box plat. At the bottom there
is a fve-inch false" tuck, stitched on
as trimming. and appearing at the
top of this is fold of dull gray rib
bon velvet. A narrower fold Of the
dress material shows above the tuck,
and this, too, is piped with velvet.
The bodice is quite plain, but smart
ly SO. The neck is cut out in round ef-
feet, then revers of bronze silk stitch
ed with gray braid are set inside over
a yoke of all-over lace. The silk is a
grayish bronze and the combination is
unusually odd. Japanese sleeves droop
over the shoulder and have a deep
facing of the silk like the revers, and
the braid appears again on the sleeves.
Elbow puffs of the worsted finished
with cuff of heavy lace and braid
form the under sleeves.
A light satin felt hat accompanies
the dress. This is in bronze gray, TRIM
med with gray velvet roses and green
foliage. Parisiennes always affect the
very lightweight satin finished felts
early in August, although they are by
no means considered authoritative au-
tumn styles. If anything, they are
simply launched as trials.

FINE DAMASK LINEN
PLEA FOR THE HAND.LOOM
WEAvERS OF IRELAND.
Distinguishing Mark Would Show
Product Is the True Example of
This ExquisiteIy Beautiful
Fabric--Highiy Priced.

Writing in the National Printers
Journalist, Mr.. James White of Chi
cago has this to say on the subject of
Irish hand-woven linen damask:
This richest form into which flax is
woven was first introduced into Ire
land from continental countries at the
close of the seventeenth century by
Samuel Waring, who brought over a
colony of weavers and settled them in
what is now the village of Warnings
town, county Down. This village is
still the center of what is left of the
hand-loom industry.
Up to the present time there has
been no distinguishing mark used by
the weavers, that would inform the
purchaser whether the goods offered
for sale were hand or steam-power
woven, but just now the weavers are
endeavorirg to bring about a change,
and are asking the privilege of weav-
ing In each tablecloth and napkin, the
words, Irish Hand-Woven Linen
Damask," in small unobstrusive let
tiers in the margin. This reproduction
illustrates what they want:
The cause of this desired change is
the 1essened demand for their pro-
duct, as the steam or power-loom
goods have for over so years steadily
supplanted the hand-woven article.
1t was the hand-loom weavers of Ire.
land, who, by their untiring energy
and industry, created the sentiment
that surrounds Irish linen, that senti.
ment which always attaches to the
best of any hand-produced article,
whether 1t be engraving, printing,
sculpture, lace or other luxury of life.
The Cook County herald. [volume] (Grand Marais, Minn.) 1893-1909, 1907-11-09

business laws and rules, when buyer
will object to the proof of an articles
superiority being put in it at the point
of manufacture, and by the man who
by skill and hand-power made it.
Even with enough of a Icmand for
the marked goods to insure the weav.
ers' success, it will probably be Christ,
mas-time before the ladies of America
can have the opportunity of buying
sets of this priced fabric, which lasts
with care through several generations.
In the meantime, the weavers should
not be discouraged in their desire and
effort to be allowed to make their
han6iwork tell regarding itself-no
matter where displayed the truth,
the Whole truth and nothing but the
truth"
The Cook County herald. [volume] (Grand Marais, Minn.) 1893-1909, 1907-11-09

This sentiment has been used to the
limit in pushing the sale of power
loom damask all over the world, even,
It is said, to the extent of substitution,
the second-class machine article for
the superior hand-loom first.
AS this country takes more than
half of the Irish linen expectations, it
is advanced as an argument by the
power-loom people, in this matter, that
the buyers of the United States,
would, if told that they could not get
the hand-woven article without these
words, tell the Irish selling agent to
pack up his samples and get out.
This is strange situation in these
days of pure food, pure drug and pure
