WOOL AND ITS USES

eeeeEeeEeEeEeEeEeeeee ad HEEP farmers, surely have a friend in need in a leading Wellington store, which has given over so large @ portion of its spacious premises to the interesting exhibition of wool and its uses. The display shows wool in its raw stages, in course of manufacture, and in a variety of finished materials. Methinks, some of the farmers themselves would open their eyes to see the wool they have handled transformed into such daintiness. "God helps those who help: themselves," and New Zealand women have here an excellent opportunity of helping themselves by investing, for both present and future needs, in the light woollen materials. The weights are light as well as heavy, beautiful in colouring and artistic in designs and many smart models give a lead as to the way in which they can be made up. Perhaps the prettiest of all the exhibits is the dainty cot, of which the trimmings, drapery and covers are entirely composed of the most fairy-like of Shetland shawls in palest blue and white.
