An excerpt: "Rare indeed is the woman whose fingers do not linger lovingly on the beautiful beads which are so temptingly displayed on the counters of all the large stores. Rarer still is the one who does not secretly, if not openly, break that commandment which admonishes us not to covet, as her eyes wander from one basket to another filled with their treasures which vie with the colors of the rainbow...(at) This time it is the Indian work which is done on a hand loom that is attracting lovers of fancy work: and the handsome indeed in design and workmanship are the belts, sashes, fan, lorgnette, and watch-chains, purses, bracelets and fobs, which are woven on these looms."
