of Commerce baa appro* i mately fixed the whan tte collar parted from the ahirt and the one article of masculine wear became twain. The historic event occurred in 1825 and »»i due to the reflection of a Troy woman at the wash tub that "shirts stay clean longer that collars."- To think was to act, and the home made invention was 1 toon popularized by a retired minister 3 who put eeparfe collars and cuffs, on the r market in 1828. Will there be no memorial tablet in 3 Troy io tke humble founder of its great 1 industry t She cut the Gordian knot ' and emancipated laundry work far all 1 titae. To her revolutionary Idea may be ' traced the growth of an output of collars c amounting to $17300,000 annually, of 1 which 80.46 per cent, as we learn from 1 the department's figures, "come from ' Troy." ' c> ' Certainly the collar metropolis should be grateful to its womb benefactor, ' whose very name is lost to fame.' Will not organized femanism seek to rescue it from oblivion! Though mute and in- 1 glorious, she was yet a pioneer whose 1 invention gave her sex a new vocation 1 while freeing it from the trammels of ' the wash tub.— New York Evening | world.
