when ncp,iics inhabited the Earth

At different epochs during the tim
known az the secondary period tie sur
face of the earth seems to have been
so predominantly peopled with reptile
life that IL has been called 'the age
Of reptiles" The huge iguanodons
staIked or leaped about in the wealds
of Sussex and Hampshire. OF these
Iguanodons marve.ously complete skel-
etons are to be seen amounted In atti
tudes Of lifpi in the Royal museum Of
Brussels-a sight in itself sufficient to
induce Il visit to that capital. Other
smaller reptiles browsed on the foliage
of the then existing plains and were
pursued and preyed upon by fell rep
titan monsters Of various kinds. The
sea also swarmed with reptiles Och
%thyosaurh as aquatic as the whales
and dolphins Of our own day. And no
only were the earth and seas thus peO
pied. but there were flying reptiles of
different kinds and sizes, known as
pterodactyls.

voice, with an emphasis that was as

SILK DRESSES OF TIN.
Nearly rs Per Cent Of the so-ca'Ied
Silk Is Tin, Pure and Simple.

Nearly rs Per Cent Of the So-caIted
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
shutting tin for vegetable weighing
substances originated in Germany.
The vegetable matters were no detri-
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 tannic acid, etc. To-day by the
substitution of tin, 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 parts are tin and
dye"
Any woman can test for herself
whether the silk she is buying is tin
weighted. Let her hold some threads
in a flame, and the genuine will leave
an ash resembling that of wool when
burned, with no traces of flament,
while the tin weighted simply loses
it's color and tenacity, each thread re-
naming distinct in thin wire gauze.
