Too Precious.

"Makers to his majesty" and finn ported" arc words that carry much weight to many minds. It is strange what a glory foreign label can cast upon a commonplace article. The fact of commodity having crossed the wa ter. however, is not taken quite so se- riously today as 1t was some fifty or sixty years ago. Nj. c. D. Silsbee gives an instance in her "A Half Cen tury Tn Salem"
 Miss Ann NJ. Rust was one of the two milliners. She had q large collec- tion of f1nery, shelves full of handsome ribbons and glass showcases of rich embroideries, besides the inevitable bonnets. Once she imported a quan- tity of exquisite French caps. The strings were somewhat crushed in the transit across the ocean. The caps were quickly disposed of. An aunt bought one, and Miss Rust innocently observed that a "warm iron would make the creases all right"
 "What" indignantly exclaimed the aunt. "Smooth 2 crease made in Paris: No indeed: never"
