Common Fabrics; How
Thev Get Their Names

Every one knows what blanket is.
but how many know that it got it's
name from Thomas Blanket, a famous
clothier. who made blankets in Eng
land about the year 1910?
And did you know that shawls first
were made for floor coverings? Sala
is the Sanskrit word for floor, and that
is where we get the name shawl.
Bandanna is from the Indian word
bandanna. meaning to bind or tie. You
see. the cloth is tied into knots when
dipped into the dye, and this is what
gives the clouded effect seen in the
original bandanna handkerchief.
Foulard was originally made for
handkerchiefs only, and the name is
French for 'silk handkerchiefs."
We have all heard the masculine ex-
preston ito go down into his jeans
when what is meant is that he pro-
duces the money. Now, the word
"ieens" has a still closer connection
with money. 1t is the name for a
Genoese coin. and in selling cloth, 1t
was customary to say, $50 much for
one iean." That is how the name came
to be applied to the familiar coarse
wooden fabric used for mems clothing.
Monte. or mummy, plain weave OF
faxen or linen yarn, was originally the
winding sheet or shroud Of Egyptian
mummifed dead.
Tweed, that familiar. rough. unfin-
ished fabric Of cotton and wool, usual

shades is so called because 1t was
originally the product of weavers on
the banks of the river Tweed in Scot
land.
Many women have wondered just
what name velvet really meant. The

Tailored Coats Have Plain

It hardly seems right to talk about
suits this spring. Even tailored suits
Of mems wear material are made up of
coats and frocks. They are more than
suits. They are ensembles, in several
types, two-piece or three-piece, the
outer garment being generally coat,
but sometimes a cape.

Canadian Drygoodsman says: Almost

sembles are long. By long | mean

All long coats have one feature in
common, the backs are straight and
close to The figure. In the great ma
jority of cases it is a plain unbroken
back line. However, there is one ex-
ception, the tailored notch collar coat
with a belt just across the back like
a mans overcoat. Coats Of this de-
scription are made up in suits and

piled to wide range of satin-faced vel

Pique is French for quilting" Orig
inally it was applied to cloth woven
in diamond-shaped designs to initiate
quilting. When used to designate our
familiar corded cloth the name is real
ly a misnomer. Chenille is French for

the well-known cloth with the fuzzy,
fluffy face. the name is most appropri-
ate. Chenille is used sometimes for
dress goods, but more generally for
curtains and table throws.

ultra-smart simplicity.
This superior type of costume, sucn

that only the best of materials be USED

Considering that ones ensemble suit

is used to form the yokes of tiny

Another popular application Of smOck-

Sometimes outline stitch is used to

most of the aroma and taste to de-
velop without an excess Of tannin,
which makes the tea astringent.
When using English breakfast or
China cUngou tea, one level teaspoon to
each cup Of water Is satisfactory. A
fve-mtnute brewing gives more body,
but the three-minute brewing makes
more delicate cup Of tea. China con-
gou has less tannin than the green
teas and less than the India and Cey-

Tea should never be boiled. After
straining off the leaves, the pot should
be kept hot in a tea cosey. Tea served
with cream should be stronger than
tea served with lemon.
