"How can I have a pretty black lace gown," asked a perplexed woman, "without paying for it?" The question is a difficult one, but may be answered by suggesting a substitute.
There are cheap net laces, which make up beautifully, and there come imitation Irish crochet laces in dull black that look precisely like the real. A net gown is not difficult to make by hand and the lace is easily applied. An afterward one has only to add the touch of blue and the gown is complete. For a sash one can purchase the inexpensive and glossy blue Liberty, which ties without wrinkling.
