Wraps, i,

The magni6cance of our exhibit of
seal, elk and other wraps for ladies !
has even attracted the disinterested
attention of the press Of this city. |
The Inter Mountain of yesterday
made it the text Of some very appro-
pirate and fercible remarks relative
to the general prosperity OF this COM
munity, which we here quote: s.
/ "sands q Boyee' report trade un-
usually active and largely in. excess
Of what it was last fall, though there
has beeu no ,severe weather - yet to
stimulate the demand for winter
goods, They have done IAN unpre-
eedenteds business in ladies' wraps
during the present season, and they
are now receiving their second ship
nent in anticipation of the holiday
trade. They have sold double q
many seal wraps as during any
previous season, and y during the
present week they have received sew
eral of unusual, beauty and rfchn ess
which they advertise as having been
bought with special reference to the
approaching gift-making season, and
intimate that the ladies will under
stand the reference. The sale of so
many costly wraps by single firm
argues well for our general prosper
ity, the culture of our people, and
for the merit, Of the firm receiving
such liberal patronage. There is
probably no other community of the
same size in the world that can afford
to snend as much money for the lux
uries of dress as ttRds, nor none that
does it." '...
We thank the inter Mountain fol
the ffsttering notice, and as it was
gratuitous it was deserved. AS a
matter of fact, our stock of

How Imitation Pearls are Made.

aYou would hardly think, said
dealer in fancy goods, holding up I
sing Of glass beads as big as cherry,
ma ID imitation of pearls, "that to get
the pearl tint on each one Of those little
olobes that the lives of at least fifteen
beautiful fish had to be sacrificed, would
you But they do, though, and although
they are made in Venice, and that string
represents catch of nearly five hundred
fsh and the exhaustion of good many
cubic inches of glassblower's breath. ]
GIN sell it to you for quarter and make
fair profit
They've been turning out beads like
these in Venice ever since 1856. There
isa fish in the Adriatic they call the
bleak fish, but why bleak | can't say.
There is nothing bleak about its appear
snce Itisa graceful fish, with a glittering
amor Of silver scale They are more
prolific and swarm in larger schools than
herring. One day in 1856, a resident
Of Venice, Salvador Joaquin by
name, placed several of these fish
in small aquarium to observe their
habits After they had been confined il
the acquariau for some time, he noticed
that the water took on a pearly hue.
Believing that this was communicated by
the scales of she bleak fish, Joaquin
tired some experiments with them. lie
found that water could be so densely
charged with the tint from these scales
that glass on being dipped in it and then
allowed to dry had every appearance Of
pearl. He coated glass beads with the
liquid and they were readily taken foi
large pearls The colting would not
resist mu, friction, however, and soen
rubbed off the surface. Finding that a
great sale could be had for beads made
IN imitation of pearls if the coating could
De made permanent, Joaquin conceived
the idea of having the globes blown
nolIow and then fixing the fish scale
llquld to the inner surface This was a
success from the Start, and the glass
pearl bead business got its first boom.
IL requires the scales of four thousand
o'eak fish to make half a pint of the
l'earl liquid. They are simply removed
iom the fish, which are cheap as moss
6unkers and soaked in tepid water.
Nowadays a very small quantity of sal
ammonia and isinglass is added to the
,li4ud. 1t is introduced inside the bead
y small tube, and when it Is dry
ooating Of wax is run over it. Fortu
hately for the fish, the trade in thes
oeads, pretty and cheap as they are, >
not alarmingly large"
