THE LACE OF VENICE.

ed by Queen Marguerite.
The lace of Venice has been celebrat-
ed for many centuries. 1t was made
originally by nuns within the walls
Of converts for ecclesiastical garments.
Then, with the fall of the Venetian
republic. the converts were closed and
the lace industry ceased to exist for
an entire century.
In 1870 the Princess Margherita. aft
erward queen Of Italy. took measures
to revive 1t. especially as means of
providing employment for Venetian
women. At present there are several
schools. subsidized by the government.
In which the art is taught.
The pupils are women Of all ages.
Each sits on low stool and holds
plump. square cushion in her lap. On
this cushion is pinned strip Of paper
marked with the pattern to be follow
ed. and into this pattern the nimble
fingered worker sticks glass headed
pins. about which she twists her
threads From twenty to fifty shuttles
depend from all sides Of the cushion.
and these are thrown across and back
with the rapidity Of typist handling
the keys of her machine. seae
The process looks, SO, simple that It
looks like play. but the lace produced
represents thousands Of dollars. The
simple laces grow rapidly under the
dexterous fingers Of the women. but
the exquisite rose point and other SINH
lar sorts are evolved much more slow
