How little we know about the his
tory of the world which lies behind
what Lord Bacon described as the
impenetrable screen of antiquity is
shown now and then when the cur
tain is lifted and we get glimpses Of
high civilization existing in Asia
and Egypt more than four thousand
years B. c., muses. the Christian Reg
lister. We have now pottery, statues,
and castings in bronze which match
the works of artists who wrought in
Greece three or four thousand years
later. 1t is difficult to trace thread
of continuity between the civilization
of these ancient times through vast
periods before the appearance of
Greece and Rome and the modern
world. We have hardly begun to
write the history of the beginnings of
civilization or to learn what has hap
pened to man on his upward course.

The use of white clothing for the
tropics, says DR.. L. w. Sambon. in
The Journal of Tropical Medicine
and Hygiene, has been adopted in
imitation of native custom, and mo
doubt 1t is wise to follow the dictates
OF long experience; but those who
borrowed this custom overlooked the
all-important fact that the native is
already protected by natural armor
OF pigment which is impervious to
the harmful actinic rays. Having no
reason to fear the chemical rays of
the sun. the native dons an ample
white robe, which, by rejecting the
long heat rays, keeps him comforta-
bly, cool. White is for comfort, but
health demands lining of pigment.
To avoid the additional weight and
thickness of several layers of cloth.
DR.. Sambon conceived the idea OF a
fabric composed Of white and colored
threads woven in such a way as TO
produce warp or outer surface of
white and woof or inner surface OF
black. red or orange. Such cloth,
with a heat rejecting outer surface
and an OPAQUE inner layer. viii, he
thinks, meet sll the requirements of
comfort and projection for .ropical
use.
