Origin Of Lace Making.

A romantic legend is still current
among the peasants OF Europe con-
corning the origin of lace. AS the
story goes. lover who could offer his
betrothed no costly gift one day
brought to her leaf which he had
plucked in the forest
She accepted it as true token of
love and preserved 1t with care. In
time the lover went away-to the wars
perhaps-and never returned.
The maiden priced the leaf then as
sacred treasure. and when she found
only the delicate veining left of her
keepsake she took needle and thread
and tried to copy the fairylike web.
And thus was made the first bit Of
real lace.-The Craftsman.

ly, didn't I go to church with you

Peeved. that was exactly four
months ago. and the minister inquiries
for you almost every week"
VERY good of him, I'm sure, "
grumbled Mr.. Peeved. but you ought
to know better than to ask me to go.
You know that close church air always
makes me sick"
You always say It does. anyhow, but

planned Mrs. Peeved. Lots Of the
ladies bring their husbands every Sun
day. and they seem to enjoy IT, too"
The Iadies?''
NO, the husbands. I'm sure there's
nothing so terrible about church"
''I didn't say there was. As far as
appreciating a good sermon and all that
goes, I f1atter myself I'm as capable as
the next man. But-but that close air
, makes me i'll. as I've told you before.
and that's all there is to 1t. l won't
go, and that's the end of it."
There was a lengthy pause.
'Dr. Hoodmac certainly Is an ener-
getic minister" remarked Mrs Peeved
finally. Hes been7been making q
tour of burlesque houses all this week,
and next Sunday he's going to expose
Z all the evils he saw in them right from
the pulpit"
There was another pause.
DO you know petty" observed Mr..
Peeved. -"I think the tendency to be-
come i'll in close atmospheres Is grad
ually leaving me. 1 think I'll go to
church with you next Sunday just Sas
an experiment"
Mrs. Peeved said nothing, but
breathed a mental prayer that in the
eyes of heaven her lie was justified.
! adding sort of mental postscript that
the minister would help her out by at
least mentioning the perniciousness Of
burlesque shows.

we are having special writers towed
