ANTIQUITY OF SILK.
The Product Was Worth It's weight
In Gold For Centuries.

The Product Was Worth It's weight
In Gold For Centuries.
The Chinese empress Sizing Chi. 1850
B. c.. was supposed to be the first wo-
man to dress herself in silken raiment.
though silk was used in the arts nearly
1000 years before her reign. She was
placed among the Chinese divinities IN
der the title OF '.Sien- Thsan," which
means FIRST promoter OF the silk In
dustry.''
Silk was worth its weight in gold in
many parts Of the world for centuries
Its immense cost may be estimated by
the fact that q silken garment is men,
TONED as one Of the wanton prodigali-
ties Of the Emperor Heliogabaius, while
gown of the same material was re-
fused by Aurelius to his empress on the
ground that he couldn't afford the price.
Such was the Importance Of the silk
industry in China that the people in the
principal growing and manufacturing
district took the name Of '-Seres. and
their country ''Serica." from the word
''Se." which in the ancient writings
means silk" A curious thing about
silk is this: The raw material IS pro
duced by the cheapest labor In the
world. while the finished product -
among the most costly of merchandise

THE BLUE RACER.
L. IL ASoat the Fleetest Thing In the
Reptile Family.

Reptile Family.
THE swiftest snake l have ever
known is the blue racer. as we used to
call the reptile in the Arkansas foot
hills, and l want to tell you this par
ticular snake can travel like q blue
streak said a nan from Arkansas.
The fact Is, the name blue racer was
given to the snake because Of the rep
tiles fleetness. have seen blue racers
dart across the road at such a rapid
pace that you could only see a mere
suggestion Of blue. and if you did not
happen to know the snake and its hab-
its you would not know what it was.
You could not possibly get the idea
that it was snake you had seen fash
through the dust OF the country road
unless you knew something of the blue
racer. Just what speed the snake
makes do not know, but it is a rapid
pace. The rattlesnake Is supposed to
have good speed, and. as a matter of
fact. the RATHER can whiz along at a
pretty swift gait. but the rattlesnake
is not in 1t with the blue racer. 1t
would be interesting to know just how
fast different snakes travel. and il we
knew dare say we would find that the
blue racer is about the feetest thing in
the reptile family New Orleans

VENETIAN WOMEN.
They Have No Need to Bother The
Heads About Fashions.

The women Of Venice are absolutely
free from the rule which Dame Fash
ion exercises over their sisters else
where. They care nothing for modes.
With them the length Of the skirt re-
mains always the same, neither short
nor long. and they always wear
plainly made dark dresses. black stock
ings and the heelless slippers Of the
east. Hats are unknown.
The universal outdoor wrap for all
ages and all sizes is the black shawl.
with a deep silken fringe. 1t is folded
with short point above and long
one below, and sometimes it envelopes
the figure from head to foot. 1t Is nev-
er fastened at the throat. and when it
slips Off it is gathered up with one
outstretchcd arm, which makes the
spectator think Of a big bird stretch
ing Its wing.
In their attire the women Of Venice
are independent, only wearing local
clothing. but, with feminine inconsist-
ency, they are thoroughly up to date
in the matter Of hnirdressing. the style
Of their coiffures changing from time
to time. according to the vogue Of the
moment in London and Paris.

Fort Dodge, May 12.-Employes Of
the Illinois Central are busy keeping
the two or three trains of oranges daily
moving over the system between Oma-

ways give a sigh of relief when the
perishable fruit has been sent to an
other division, for the value of each
train load runs into thousands of dol
lars. The movement has been in pro-
gress for the past two weeks and be-

been moved. 1t has been predicted that
$50 trains of orange filled cars will be
taken care of by the Illinois Central
during the orange marketing season.
Eastern jobbers have bought heavily
and are distributing their purchases
as fast as they receive them from Cal

LITTLE BABY
HORRIBLY BURNED
By Boiling Grease Skin All Came
off One Side Of Face and Head
Tried an Ointment which Made It
All Fester-Wee Sufferer Seemed
Disfgured for Life.
CURED WITHOUT 4
MARK BY CUTICURA

"About year and eight months ago
my baby aged ten months, was sitting
on the mat beside the fender and we were
preparing the breakfast when the FRYING
pan full of boiling grease was upset and
it went all over one side of the baby's
face and head. One Of the family ran
and wiped the scald with towel and
you may think what mess she made,
pulling the entire skin off. We took her
to chemist who told us to get doctor,
which did. He tended her week
and gave me some stuff like lard to put
on. But it all festered and / thought
the baby was disfgured for life. A
woman close beside me told me to try
Cuticura Ointment. ] used about three
boxes and it was wonderful howit healed.
In about five weeks it was better and
there wasn't mark to tell where the
scald had been. People used to ask me
if that was the baby that was scalded
and they would hardly believe me when
l told them she was and what cured her
face. Her skin is just like velvet and
have never been without Cuticura since.
Cuticura cured three other children of
ringworm besides, so have good cause
to thank it for what it has done. Mrs.
