Suftlclcut to say that nnwhero Is there

there are eighty toaehorn employed,

Mr. Adlcr, n wldc-awako business man

"On July 2Cth wo estimated our crop

A year later, however, a factory was
Blurted in Provldcnco, R. I., and with

Sturch wero used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, it is usually neces

beauty and fineness ot tho fabric is
hlddon behind a pasto of varying
thickness, which not only destroys tho
appearance, but also affects tho wear

Deflnnco Sturch, ns It can bo applied
