Brilliant and Durable Material Much

Brilliant and Durable Material Much
In Demand.
If thistles cannot grow flgs, cotton
evidently can grow silk It has been
found that brilliant threads Of silk
like appearance can be produced from
cellulose. The best material for the
purpose Is said to be carded cotton
The artificial product is OF an even
white color, Of silky touch. and when
pressed together has some of the
characteristic crackle Of genuine silk,
Thich I'D tgilllancy It much excels.
For trimmings It is gaid to be pre-
ferred to the natural silk, while for
embroidery II is ideal. the luster add
ing much to the appearance. In hats
1t may be made TO taTe the place Of
straw with good results. II forms an
excellent imitation Of human hair. as
soft as the natural growth and not TO
be distinguished therefrom. IL Is also
cleaner and cheaper. There appears
to be an increasing demand for the
artificial silks even in silk-producing
countries. Germany ard France lead
in It's manufacture.

OF the new king OF Norway's new
name. a Norwegian authority writes;
"The genuine form Of the name IS

himself. by deeds Of arms, into the
position Of konungr, king, which,

-ungr being a SUNK indicative Of des.

Accordingly. the name Hakon
meant originally the high one Of the
Kin. and must have been a title for
prince. a king. before It assumed
the exclusive character Of a proper
personal name, The old Norwegian
pronunciation Of the a. in ia seems
to have come close to the sound Of

course Of time It has broadened into

Paris. Jan. 1s.--The Combes min
istry presented its resignation to
President Loubet this morning. and the
president accepted it, but asked the
ministers to individually carry on their
functions until the new cabinet Is
formed.
M. Combes, in his letter of resigna-
tion. reviews his course during the last
eighteen months, and says he has been
attacked by an ambitious and impa-
tient coalition Of clericals and nation
alists which obstructed the work of the
majority and adds:
II have struggled foot by foot
against their maneuvers. My person
al sentiments are to struggle still, be-
lieving that republican France is with
me. But it is easy to recognize that
I may be put in the minority at any
moment upon some comparatively
minor incident, thus risking injury to
the general policy of the government"
The letter points out that the mator-
ity, altho reduced, is still majority.
and that therefore, the past policy of
the ministry should continue to govern
the Forthcoming ministry and closes
with the expression of faith in ulti-
mate triumph of the policy despite the
present "presumptuous boastings of
the reactionary elements"
