THEY ARE SCARCE

ANNOUNCED THAT SILVER DOL.
LARS ARE TO BE SHY
IN THE SOUTH.

WASHINGTON, Sept 15.-The fail
ure Of congress to appropriate suffi-
Gent sum to pay for the transporta-
ton of the silver dollar has resulted
in a decided decrease in the circula-
lion OF the old cart wheel" This is
naturally especially noticeable in the
south and west, the only section OF
the country in which the silver dollar
has any considerable circulation.
For many years congress annually
appropriated a big sum to pay for the
shipment of all sorts Of silver money.
At the last session, however, it was
decided that 1t was no business OF the
government to pay for putting the sill
yer into circulation.
II was decided that the government
ought to accommodate the public in
the matter Of subsidiary coins and
100000 was appropriated for the pur-
pose, over half of which has already
been expended because of a curious
provision in the act, making it posi-
Bile that before the end of the year
there would be no shipments of small
coins no matter how great the demand
of business Of the public Treasury
officials believe that within few
years silver dollars will be as scarce
in the south as in the west.

manufacture was discontinued after the
Revolution and introduction Of machin-
cry. This lace was the favorite Of Queen
Marie Antoinette. Pillow lace il made In
two ways. In the first the pattern or
toile il made and tho brides or reseau
added later. To this class belong milan
csc, brussels and honiton.
The second method Is where the whole
lace is made with the same threads.
which form reseau and toile alike. To
this class belong al! italian peasant
Iaces. all French, all Flemish except
brussels. and all English except honi-
ton.
These various pillow laces may be dis
tinguished by the reseau, and all laces
made before 1900 must be classed as
either point or pillow. for not until after
that did machinery take q part.
Pillow lace Is said to have been made
first in Belgium. although Genoa also
claims the honor. In any instance. NAL
tese lace was copied from Genoa. which
was taken to the island OF Malta by
Lady Hamilton.
Valenciennes Is pillow lace. which
was not at first confined to the town of
: Valenclennes. for II was also made in
Belgium without the cordonet and with
a fancy mesh. But the French people
insisted that the pure mesh made with
four-plaited threads was the "vrai val
point, and the manufacture Of val
: ciennes lace was discontinued In Other
countries. So

earliest brussels point resembled allen
con with a cordonet of plain strands.
but the reseau was formed OF single
loops, while alencon was whipped at
the base. Point de gaze was on the
same order. only the toile was shaded
and dotted.
Point .acemaking is one Of the most
difficult arts. and this is more easily
realized when it is stated that a work.
er could only at best speed make one
third of an inch of founce width in a
week, and that it would take one wom-

But all lace ia not made with the nee
die. for some IL done on the pillow: that
is to say. with the bohbin. This method
also requires the parchment design,
which is fastened over oblong pillows
and held on the knees or on a stand.
The work Is done by means OF plating
and twisting threads along the lines
drawn in the parchment, and to the end
Of the threads are attached wooden
spools or bobbins. so that the worker
may the more easily handle them.
The distinction between pillow and
point lace lies mainly in the toile or de-
sign. which in point lace is composed Of
many buttonhole-s titehes. while in pile

goods. and it 10, therefore. more trans

The design is printed on parchm mt
and then priclled. as in venetian point.
but the parchment is only ten inches
long. The outline is then laid on in
two fiat threads. held in place by tiny
stitches, which go through the holes in
the foundation. This is the work of
one woman. The next worker fills In
the groundwork. or reseau. the next
buttonholes the design. and the last fin

and all that is left is the joining ogeth-
er of the pieces SO that the stitches will
be invisible. Working in this way it
took thirty-six women a year and a half
to make the founce for the .,edding
dress of the Empress Eugene.
Alencon was undoubtedly the finest of
the French point laces. although there
were many which need be touched on
but lightly.
Point d'argentan was made in Argen
tan, a little town near Alencon. The two
-iaces are frequently confused, but Ar
sentan only produced lace with brides or
cords, not reseau. Lille had twisted
mesh and a cordonet of UNFINISHED
thread, and blond was a sort OF darned
lace of silk. named from the color,

Partly Embroidered Doilies

TOR the woman who likes to en-
r. broider. yet does not care to take
the trouble to undertake large
and complicated task, sets Of doiiies
are on the market, prettily embroidered.
The design is filed in in white. and
when a colored stitch Is done around
the edge the effect is very good, and
the semi-lazy woman may sit ON her
porch and work away on a dozen of
these doilies. and when they are fin
ished she may proudly exclaim that
she has embroidered them, and her
friends will be none the wiser!
The old Dame Fashion of household
affairs has at last decided. after many
years of unsettled mind, that only two
sizes of doilies are necessary for the
table. The smallest, for glass meas
ures six inches in diameter, and the
plate doilies ten inches. while the GEN.
terpiece. of course. would be twenty
one or twenty-four inches. In this way
the right "a tic is maintained, and guests
with geometric minds may be instantly
satisfied. while otherwise they might
lose their appetites while puzzling over
the area occupied by the linen.

Easy Embroidery for
Dresses


IT AND embroidery is quite the most
RI desirable trimming one may
have. no matter what the cos
tune may be. and one of the very lat
est ideas is to have the dress made up
by the dressmaker. and when 1t is fin
ished the wearer puts in her idle mo-
ments decorating it in plain. but very
conspicuous. stitches. 1t was thus that
an eton dress was made. the under
blouse Of flet net. The jacket effect of
Copenhagen blue pongee was embroid-
cred In big flowers, one overlapping the
other. SO that 1t gave the effect of
huge and artistic bouquet and also a
great deal Of embroidery. while in real
ity there was very little. The petals
were embroidered In the long and short
stitch finished all round In a button
hole stitch. while the inside Of the flow
ers we're finished In French knots.
The floss was exactly the same shade
as the dress itself. and was of the
coarsest silk hber. so that 1t took not
very many stitches to finish the work.
and each stitch showed to the best ad-
vantage.
The same idea Is frequently carried
out in jumper dresses and guimpe
frocks. and II Is surprising how little
embroidery 1t takes to give the gown
that distinctive stamp Of elegance that
hand embroidery always adds.

they are all made with the hook in
