Millionaire manufacturers looking
out for something measurable to col
lect might do very much worse than
found a gallery of textiles" says The
Textile World Record. IF they saw fit
also to give exhibitions of their stores
to students the public would arise to
call them blessed Or perhaps the foun-
dation of a collection of woven stuffS
is worth the attention of the authori-
ties at Washington. The National
Museum at South Kensington gathers
parcels of antique textiles as it does
jewelry, ironwork, and other crafts
mems triumphs. Loan collections. in
Guiding scraps of fabric, are sent to
the public museums that are to be
found in all cities. Latterly. the Board
of Education has interested itself in
sending TO centers of textile industry
collections appropriate to local inter
ests. Some opportunity is thus afford
ed to trace the genesis through the CEN
turtles of taste and invention in de-
sign as well as skill in workmanship.
Suitably arranged and described a col
lection may have a very high educa-
tional value and exercise an important
influence on the workmen of the flu

According to the Boston Transcript
the cat is rapidly becoming favorite
article of food in certain parts of Italy,
particularly in Venice and Verona In
these and some other cities also, the
butchers sell dressed cats under the
name of rabbits. There is a law
against eating cats, but notwithstand-
ing, large business is done in raising
cats for the market. The cat is usually
cooked by roasting in the oven until
brown along with Snions, garlic, parS-
ley, bay leaves, and other herbs. There
sees to be no good reason says Good
Health (March), why there should be
prejudice against cats Squirrels are
very commonly eaten. The squirrel
eats nuts ordinarily, but it eats birds
also when it does not find good sup
ply of its natural foods. Cats are in
every way as wholesome as fish. Near
~ all fish are strictly carnivorcus,
while cats take readily to a diet of
bread and milk

The oldest artificial leg in existence

College of Surgeons of England. as re-
ported by the British Medical Journal.
1t was found in tomb at Capua, and
is described in the catalog as follows:
Roman artificial leg; the artificial
limb accurately represents the form of
the leg; it is made with pieces of thin
bronze. fastened by bronzed nails to a
wooden core. Two iron bars, having
holes at their free ends, are attached
to the upper extremity of the bronze:
a qUadrilateral piece of iron, found
near the position of the foot. is thought
to have given strength to it. There is
no trace of the foot. and the wooden
core had nearly crumbled away The
skeleton had its waist surrounded by
belt of sheet bronze edged with small
rivets probably used to fasten a Ieath-
er lining. Three painted vases cred
figures on a black ground lay at the
feet of the skeleton. The vases belong
to a rather advanced period in the de-
