 Twelve thousand hours were re- quired in workmanship, for the veil contains not less than 120O0,0 points. It displays the almost unknown art of light and shade, difficult effect and one of rare beauty. It solves for the first time, perhaps. the ques- ton of perspective. The entire piece weighs but four and one-half ounces. In the center of the veil are the Belgian arms, and in the four corners of the central panel the arms of the cities of Ypres. Newport, Poperinghe and Furnes. The four side panels represent the industries of weaving, fishing. hop picking and dairying.

For centuries the basket maker has been a picturesque sight in old Naples where the trade runs in the same fam fly for generations. The basket maker Is omnipresent, either plating or sell ing his wares in every direction. for in no other city under the sun are they used for so many purposes. from cradles for babies to fish receptacles. and a covering for wine bottles. The artist splits his wicker deftly with a long-bladed knife and proceeds to weave watertight baskets by hand. as only his strong fingers can fashion them. Not one, but many day are his "stint" and when they are mound ed about him at nightfall he gives a sigh of satisfaction and loads his cart for the morrow Or possibly It is his own back which must be bent to the burden. If so, he appears like an animated basket-rack as he sallies forth to the tune of Santa Lucia" Later. one can easily imagine that there is a ventriloquist hidden away in the depths of the baskets. calling his ware.
