RIVAL IMPORTS,


That more and better a'etonnes
are an aftermath of the war 10 q
surprise to those who go shopping
for this goods. There are stories
in the improvements. IL one hai
time to teal them, OF how home
artists hitched their wagons to
stars when things were hardest to
get from Europe. Now, with the
results beginning to show quite
perceptibly, America is manufac-
turing as never before. Artists,
working madly in color. design,
weave and finish, have started to
produce a hundred variations in
this branch of cotton goods which
never before got out of the class
of exclusive importations. More
over, the new ones may hit prac-
tical needs better. perhaps, than
anything found among the old.
One of the processes our men
have mastered is the hand blocking
or block printing, little used on
this side of the water, and that
means more room for design, more
OF the handsome. large patterns so
desirable for sun parlors. where
there is little of finish or trim .ex-
cept for adorable birds, blossoms
and tropical vistas, with which Gre
tonnes transform bare walls of
brick. Such effects also meet best
the large willow furniture OF to-
day.
A limitless number Of colors Is
the reward of the hand method,
where formerly there were but
eleven machine printed colors pos
sibIe. including the light or medium
shades in which each color in print
is apt to repeat itself. So home
manufacturing may be looked to TO
turn sunrooms and country rooms
into hanging gardens or tropical
aviaries, all woven in rich relief
into backgrounds cunningly de-
signed for wall effects.
Prices are already becoming rea-
sonable. There is something within
the means of each pocketbook. In
less pretentious goods than the
han blocked one can see at once
what the home artist has accom-
plished. In all-over designs there
are those in which fruit and flow
ers spill out of delicate wicker
baskets and achieve such grace of
design and charm of color as
makes one look again and again.
Yet these and similar things are
occasionally seen at the same price
at which we formerly found prints
that were merely cheerful and
commonly pretty. Such goods. with
