The Partially for the color red may

an important part in the art and deco

that various colors had special sig.

the sexes. Striking examples of this
custom are found in Italy, where red

Biblical women always in the latter

In olden time the efficacy of red an
a cure-all for disease was strictly fol-

entirely died out. The physician to
Edward Ii. Of England, John of Cad.

a complete cure for one OF the royal
princes who was suffering with small
pox by surrounding the sick bed
with various red hangings, wrapping
the patient in red blankets, covering
him with scarlet counterpart and
administering red mulberry wine.

In New Zealand the house in which
