s.Lk DRESSES OF TIN.
Nearly rs Per Cent Of the so.calIed

Nearly rs Per Cent Of the so.calIed
Silk Is Tin, Pure and Simple.
A Chicago chemist declares that Is
per cent of the so-called silk used for
skirts, blouses, and dresses is nothing
less than tin, pure and simple.
He asserts that the practice of sub
stituting tin for vegetable weighing
substances originated in Germany.
The vegetable matters were no Getri-
ment, though equal brilliancy of color
was not obtainable, and there was not
the same sheen and feel" when han
died as that produced by the real silk,
which has the rustic so pleasing to
ladies' ears. THE practice of the
DYER" he explains, Ito whose hands
the silk yarn is intrusted for dyeing
and weighing, is to boil it, and in so
doing he reduces every sixteen ounces
to twelve, thus eliminating the nat
ural gummy substance and the for
eign matter added for the purpose Of
spinning. The twelve ounces were
then brought to fourteen by the use
of fannie acid, etc. To-day by the
substitution of TIM the twelve ounces
are raised to sixteen ounces, or even
thirty ounces"
The proportion of weighing is
more than that in black silk" said a
manufacturer to whom this statement
was submitted. Frequently only one.
fourth of the woven material is real
silk. the other three nartS are fin and
dye"
Any woman can test for herself
whether the silk she is buying is tin
weighted Let her hold some threads
in flame, and the genuine will leave
an ash resembling that of wool when
burned, with no traces of filament,
while the tin weighted simply loses
its color and tenacity, each thread re-
naming distinct in a thin wire gauze.

Unto how many men each hour

Some gentle gift. some flower
That is the souls best offering!
Some happiness which we despise,
Some boon we toss aside forever
And only that our selfish eyes
Nav smile one minute on the giver.
How many of us count or treasure
The. little lives that perish thus
10 garner us q moments pleasure,
A Moments space to comfort US!
Blind. ever blind, we front the sun
And cannot see the angels near us,
Forget the tender duties done

All gifts of service we pass by;
All blessings love hath power to give
We scorn, o God, or we deny!
