Dresden china was invented by an al
chemist named Bottger while searching
for the philosophers stone and trying to
make artificial gold out of Saxon clay.
Specimens OF his work, incapable of imi-
tation, are still preserved in the histori-
cal museum. They represent animals of
various kinds, clusters Of flowers and
various grotesque designs.
From fear Of being arrested az a nee
romancer he fled to Wittenbers, where
he was arrested, brought back to Ores
den and shut UP in prison. But he con-
tinued his experiments.
They were SO successful, as far as the
porcelain was concerned, that the king
established him in a wing of the Al
brechtSburg castle, at Nielsen, in ITO.
There, under his direction, the present
factory was developed
The king made Bottger baron in I'LL.
He continued as director of the Meissen
factory until his death, i'm 1719, and it
was enlarged from time to time until it
occupied the entire CASTLE
In 1873 IT was removed to the present
building, erected for the purpose, and the
castle was restored to its former condi-
ton. The frescoes in the banquet hall
represent the development OF the porce-
hahn industry under Bottger

Dresden China.

What we call Dresden china is not made
in Dresden, but at the town of Meissen,
on the River Elbe. about fifteen miles be-
low the capital. 1t is all made by the
government, and the factory formerly
filled an ancient castle. which for CEN
turtles was the residence of the kings of
Saxony. 1t is an imposing structure and
occupies picturesque position upon the
bluffs that overhang the river.
There is a cathed Aal nearby, with sew
eral beautiful gothic spires which add

which the royal Dresden china formerly
came.

whose pedigreeS are as we'll known as
that of the king himself, for their ances-
tors have been employed in. the factory
for several centuries. 1t is expected that
the Oldest son of every family shall learn
his fathers trade and succeed him in the
factory when he has acquired the neceS-
sary skill and experience.
The wages are comparatively small,
however, and are not more than half as
much as those received by the employees

of the artists-and they are artists-who
design and mold those exquisite examples
of Dresden china which are SO much ad-

living, which is felt here as much as in
the United States. 1t was comparatively
