Origin of Card PLAYING.

TRACING THE PASTEBoARDS INTO ANTIQUITY
AND TELLING SOMETHING ABOUT THEM
From the Boston Globe.
The best authorities incline to the belief that
cards, like chess, are an importation from the
east and that their origin is to be sought for in
the most remote antiquity. It must not be
imagined, however, that these very ancient
cards have much resemblance to those now in
use. They bore mysteriousy grouped emble-
NAUTICAL figures and were doubtless elnplOyed
rather for the iancied interpreta tion OF the will
specimens of the original cards, as first intro
duced into Europe by the gypsies, are in exist
ence, their sole representatives being what are
called tarOtO, which are still extant in SwitZer-
land and Germany and in some parts of a Isace
They are unknown, however, except as curiosi
ties. 1t is well-established fact that the am-
cestOrs OF the light-hngered All Sin were ac-
quainted with the use OF cards as early as A. d
1920.
Gaming and time-killing are not the only end
invented by the Able Gaultier for the puroose Of

magnificent Louis XIV. almost raised carl-n1av
ing to an institution of state. 1t was introduced
to the king and queen regent in 164S nv
Mazann, an Italian. The result can be i'm
agined. The example set by the palace spread
through all ranks. Outdoor games fell into
disrepute, men became unhealthier and more
ignorant and sad effect upon female morality
was perceptible. These are but u few of the in
etfecls observable in countries addicted to card
playing. 1t is doubtful ii anything in this pre-
sent century has SO adequately described the

Washington Letter in Boston Transcript
On Monday evening some of the women whom
Mrs. Potter SO shocked went to parties half
dressed. Some of the men who were SO red
with bushes over Mrs. Potter's reading also
went to the parties, and were not in the least
shocked by the display OF arms and waists
barred to the general gaze. One now no longer
says necks, for dresses are worn low this
winter that the exposure of anatomy is far be-
low the neck and shoulders. OF course they
are sleeveless and held on to the figure by the
narrOwest band or strap over the shoulder
often just wide enough for one row OF jet beads
In some instances nothing is left to the imagi-
nation by this absolute exposure. The worst of
it is there Is not even the excuse of vanity, Tor
some oil the lowest dresses are on scrawny forms
and some on stout ones which have shoulders
coarse and diDsy in fibre. heard a gentleman
say one evening at "a party, "Thank heaven! l
nave no daughters to bring out in low necks
and haf-cad; know l could not bear to see M v
daughters dressed like some OF the girls mere to-
night. Just look at that back for instance"
happened to know that the lady TO whom he
called my attention was a married woman and
quite old enough to be above the vanity of such
exposure. ''She is married" l said. He turned
In half-helpiess way and asked: SHOW can
her husband permit her to dress so indecentiy?
It's strong word, but 1t Is the right one to use
before all that show OF back and arms" A
guest at one of the White House official recep-
lions this season wrote to Il friend and said: IL
had beautiful time at the President s:reception
last night l was there an hour, and most of
the time looking at backs or shoulder blades"
