Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. T 0 one suggestion, not accepted, we wish to refer, it is that our Irish flax threads be made in Shaded colors for crocheting, as is done with cotton threads. We do not feel that this would be desir able. There is nothing atall artistic in these productions of shaded thread, indeed, to the cultivated eye they possess an abnormal ugliness. After laundering, such work is not even presentable, and the readiness with which cotton is known to soil renders its life re markably ephemeral. As a lady of taste remarked in our hearing not long ago, It Will not look nice, even while one is working on it, which is very true.
