GLASSWARE OF ANCIENT ROME.
Among the Most Beautiful the World
Has Produced.

There is no more beautiful glass.
ware than that Of the Romans, which
In many of the examples that still
survive, is further beautifed by its
great age, the passage of centuries
giving the surface Of the vessels a
bright, glossy, iridescent appearance,
due to composition OF the outer sur.
face. Roman glass was in many
cases of remarkable delicacy and fra
gility; both plain and colored articles
were made. 1t is on record that
many pieces sold for very nigh prices
even In the days of the Caesars. Nero
himself was by way az being a con.
noisseur of glass. Is II not related
that he paid 5000 sertertia for two
small vases? The great beauty Of
such famous surviving pieces as the
portland vase in the British muse
UNI, and the fine vase in the Bourbon
museum at Naples, are, surely a sur
hcient yindlcation Of the considerable
sums paid for such exquisite examples
OF the giassworker's art by the cog.

WAS FIRST SOCIETY JOURNAL
Hand-to.Hand News Was Issued
Nearly 200 Years AGO.

Nearly EUO years ago.
In these days OF many society pa.
pers Il is interesting TO recall the
genesis of the first one of the race,
which was produced in France in the
beginning Of the eighteenth century
It was called Nouveles a la Main.
or Hand.to-Hand News in those days
and the inventor was lady named
Nine Doublet.
Nine. Doublet received all the best
society of Paris and both she and her
guests loved scandal. To cater for
their taste a book was kept into which
every visitor wrote what he or she
had picked up in the way of news and
gossip since his or her last visit and
these news items were afterward
copied onto sheets Of white paper and
taken round to the houses of those of
Nine. Doublet's friends who had not
called that day.
Eventually the thing developed into
commercial enterprise, and the
Hand-to- Hand News was sold to all
who wanted 1t for six francs monthly
or s. year. But a dollar in those
days was, It must be remembered
worth good deal more than It is
now.
In 1858, when Nine. Doublet was
quite an old lady, an attempt was
made to stop the circulation Of her
Nouvelles a la Main. But II had gain.
ed so great a hold upon the public
taste that the police were powerless
to do so.-London Express.
