CELEBRATED FOR ITS LACE
Years as Center Of That Par
ticuIar Industry.

The lace of Venice has been cele-
brated 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, af-
terward queen of Italy, took measures
to revive it, 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, into which
the Eimble-fngered worker sticks
glass beaded 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.
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 poil.t and other SIM
liar sorts are evolved much more
slowly.

THE EASY WAY.

PrOgression's road is never straight.
1t winds and counter-winds along the
shores of the sea of life, crosses noun
famous obstacles, goes down deep into
the valleys of despair, and also enters
the easy-going plains of the least re-
slstance.
Since the day of creation men have
hunted for the easy way, the short
cut, the smooth, straight highway, that
they might travel the shortest path
leading to accomplishment. Some OF
them have arrived at their destina-
ton, aided by what we call luck, for
the want of better name for it; but
men, as they run, win because they
have the strength and the ambition to
overcome obstacles, to leap over hand
leaps, to reach their goal, irrespective
of the barriers of the road.
have followed the careers OF
many men of mark, those who occupy
places of honor and of responsibility,
and not one of them has reached his
destination over the easy way.
That which comes to you unsought,
unstriven for, gives you neither pleas
ure nor satisfaction, for you have not
earned it, you have done nothing to
get it.
An earned dollar is worth more to
you than 100 dropped into your beg
ging hand:
When you get that which you strug-
gle to obtain, it is yours, all yours.
and you have a right to be proud OF
it, partly because it was not given
to you, and partly because you won on
hard battlefield against strong and
valiant enemy.
Forget that there is an easy way,
partly because you are unfortunate if
you find it, largely because it is sci,
dom to be found
Thousands Of men struggle harder
hunting for the easy way than dc
those who armor themselves for the
worlds battle, get out into the open
field, and are willing to fight for fame
If you would amount to anything, if
you would be satisfied when you reach
your goal, determine to earn what you
receive, to obtain it by hard and per.
sistent struggle.
Place no dependence upon luck. II
you meet it on the road, do not re-
fuse to recognize it; but make it
your slave, not your master
If you work, you may accomplish;
If you don't, you will remain in the
ranks, unless unreliable chance takes
you by the hand and makes pauper
of you.
So seldom does the easy way ap-
pear that we may consistently claim
that there is no easy way; but, even
if there were, l should advise you,
young man and young woman, to re-
fuse to travel upon it, though it ap-
peared to lead to accomplishment.
Success is not measured by what it
is, but what was done to get it.
That which is thrust upon you,
which accidentally arrives, even
though it may be excessive wealth
or fame, is not founded upon that
stable foundation which is likely to
endure in business or in any other
department of the worlds work.
All that is worth having is worth
working for.
There is NO easy way.

MADE FROM LEMON GRASS
Valuable Oil That Contains an Extra.

Comes From India.

There is a valuable oil made from
lemon grass. Its chief commercial CEN
ter is Trivandrum, in Travancore,
state in southern India. Obscurity pre-
walls as to the botanical sources of
eastern Indian lemon grass oils, but
they are generally stated to be derived
from Cymbopogon citratus and Gym
bopogon tleXuoSuS. The former is a ma
tive of Bengal and is largely cultivated
all over India, but the oil distilled in
the Malabar coast is derived principal
ly from Cymbopogon tiexuosus. This
plant grows plentifuIly in Travancore,
especially on the slopes of the noun
lains to the north of Anjengo. The

countryside is dotted all over with fur
naces and stills. During July, August,
September and October operations are
continually maintained, but there
would appear to be no second crop. In
lew CdSeS LuIOpCduS nave eStdD-
Iished distiReries on an improved plan.
The Moplas (native gatherers) are
said to recognize q forms of the wild
plant, of which five only are of COM
mercial value and one is cultivated
and never flowers. The most interest
ing feature of the lemon grass Oil is
the large PERCENTAGE Of citral that it
contains. This has been variously
stated at 70 to 80 per cent, and infe
rior or adulterated samples 40 to 50
per cent. 1t is employed in the manu-
facture of artificial perfumes, such as
. the violet, known as ionone, and like
all the grass oils is utilized mainly in
perfuming soaps. An important use to
which it is applied in the United States
is in the preparation of furniture pol
ish. The production of lemon grass
oil in South India on a commercial
scale is an industry of comparatively
recent growth.

Commerce got busy Saturday with the
war department relative to the local
guard company. Twenty Ave OF its
members are suffering from serious
colds bordering on pneumonia. The
boys have insufficient equipment, their
blankets are worn and wet, the tents
wearing out, the buildings at Camp
Selmore inadequate for the needs Of
the young men.
Two kilograms went into the central
division, Chicago, giving exactly the
situation here. To date no one has
been able to quite figure out just what
was going to become Of the local com
pany. Conversations were held with
General Logan In. Des Moines. The doc
tor in charge Of the camp also wired
the situation from his viewpoint.
Messages are going to be sent to
Chicago until the war department
takes cognizance of the fact that there
is guard company here, that equip
ment is required, and that the b. VS.
desire to get into the game without
any more delay. In the meantime the
armory will be fitted up and the boys
given sleeping quarters there.
