CHENmLEDoTTEp vEILINGs.

Many varieties OF veilings were in
evident at the New York Horse show,
says the Dry Goods Economist but
chenille-dotted novelties were perhaps
in the lead. Dainty spring designs,
outlined in miniature chenille dots or
decorated in some odd fashion, were
especially prominent The part which
chenille-dOtted veilings played at this
fashionable gathering viii no doubt
be influential in boosting the already
fair demand for chenille dots in local
retail stores.

The Rich Fruit of Experience


1t was after, not before, great word-6re that fire
insurance was first started. A few prophets had
vainly warned and suggested but the London fire
swept that city to cinders IN 1866, and charity was
the only help for the sufferers. Then there began
a systematic search for the remedy The first
regular office for insurance against loss by fire was
established IN 1851, as a result of that fire, at the
backside of the Royal Exchange" Other COM
panies formed. At first each company went to
the tremendous expense of supplying its own fire
engines TO put out fires, and its patrons marked
their houses with distinguishing signs, many of
which may now be found On the stepping
stones of the unnecessary expenditures, the mis-
takes and lack of foresight of the early companies
our modem ones have risen. We belieDe OUR
companies rise highest and most firmly. It's
North your whic to find out why.
