An
excerpt:
"Artificial flowers are obviously better for wearing
than real flowers, for they do not fade. Paris has taught us to understand and
appreciate this particular branch of the flower-maker's art...I hope to show
readers how the flowers are made and,
if their study of flower reproduction gives them as much pleasure
as it has given the writer, they have much happiness in
store..."
