SPECIMENS OF LACE
FROM THE PARIS EXPOSITION.
[Victorian Fashion]
"We give illustrations of two exquisitely beautiful
specimens of lace, lately displayed in the Paris Exposition, and which were unsurpassed by
any productions of the kind in that great hive of human industry. The first is a Black
Bayeux lace, the second, Point D'Alençon. They were exhibited by the Compagnie des
Indes,
represented by Messrs. Delisle, Frères, who had already received the decoration of the
Legion of Honor, and numerous medals for their exquisite lace manufacture."

Mourning and Funeral Usage
Learn about the
etiquette of mourning in the Victorian era. A heartless
wife who, instead of being grieved at the death of her
husband, is rejoiced at it, should be taught that society
will not respect her unless she pays to the memory of the
man whose name she bears
