MAKING ARTIFICIAL LACE

Mechanism and chemistry combined
have furnished France with a new
product artificial lace. The general
public has heard little about il, but
the lace manufacturers of Lyons, Ca
lais and Caudry have for some time
past been much perturbed over this
unexpected competition, to which they
will have to submit.
Artificial lace is in effect a manu-
facture of a very simple nature.
There is no weaving employed in It's
production. The machine consists in
its essential parts of a receptacle con-
tanning a cupro-ammoniacal solution
of cellulose, a metallic cylinder upon
which is engraved the negative OF
the design and a coagulation vat.
A rotary motion is given to the cyl
inder, over which flows the solution,
which, entering the interstices of the
engraved pattern. fixes itself immedi-
tely in the coagulative liquid, out or
which emerges the texture ready to
be dyed and dressed.
Artificial lace has beautiful ap-
pearance. 1t is homogeneous and un-
alterable; will wear better and is less
combustible than ordinary lace. Wa
ter does not affect IT, Any desired
pattern can be obtained by engraving
a new cylinder.

The Democrats, Republicans and
