Warsaw. Nov. 22.--Negotiations
looking to permanent peace between

Shoddy.

The public IL getting all fused up
over shoddy and not without a good
deal of reason, but the facts and the
remedy are not so simple as they are
assumed to be, SO that the favorite
expedient of applying TO Congress for
relief from every i'll nay not be as
satisfactory as anticipated.
II seems to be the popular impress
sion that all shoddy is bad and its use
should be made difficult if not impos q
sible, at least opprobrious. while all
virgin wool is good and much TO be lie
sired.
The facts are that the value Of wool
for all textile purposes depends upon
the length Of staple and the strength
Of fibre. and sometimes. of course, upon
the lustre and degree of fineness, but
that is quite beside the point at Is
sue.
This being the case, there is a vast
difference between virgin woods. even
between different portions of the same
fleece. Some sheep have a fibre that
is long, strong and lustrous and all
wool that comes from the back and
sides is better than that from the
fianks, belly or neck.
Again, if the sheep has been sick or
If for a time il suffered from lack of
proper feed or other cause. that unfor-
tunate incident will be attended by a
weak spot in the fibre which was grown
at that particular time. There are.
therefore, virgin wools and virgin
woods.
II is the same with shoddy. Its val
ne depends upon the grade Of virgin
wool from which il was made. The
term has been made invidious in the
public mind by evil associations: the
expression "old rags" for example, be-
ing played mp in such a way as to
damn everything but virgin wool and
to give that q clean bill Of health,
whatever its grade or quality.
The fact Is that shoddy is a general
term for reworked wool. so there is
good shoddy and bad shoddy, Just as
there are good and had virgin woods.
and the other fac, Is that long staple
and strong fibre wool Is too valuable

woods should be used over and over
again. and there is no justification in
speaking Of all discarded fabrics as old
rays in such way as TO suggest filth
and unfitness.
The general situation Is, therefore,
that some shoddv is better than the
lower grades 81 virgin wool. and that :

prettier than a scooped out pumpkin,

there are a number of children in the

of the pumpkin veritable Cinderella

doors in the side, fastening them on
with adhesive paper hinges, so they
will stand open. Hollow out a little
seat for the coachman, and use choc-
