LOADED SILKS.

The Way the Fabric Is AduIterated 20
=. increase It's Weight.
II properly handled silk is the strong
est and most durable Of all textile ma
terials. but the various processes OF
manufacture that remove much Of the
natural gum cause it to lose so large
an amount Of It's weight that unscrup-
ulous dyers and manufa cturers resort
to 'loading." dipping the thrown silk
into a solution Of bichloride Of TIN
Some are not content with restoring
the original weight Of the raw silk. but
-'7oad It until It's weight is multiplied
three or four fold This operation
makes the skeins more valuable. but
IL destroys the durability Of the fla
ments.
Stretching the threads to their eias-
tic limit, so that given weight win
weave a greater number OF yards. and
steaning to give the material an IN
natural luster are ether processes that
prove profitable to manufac cturers, but
costly to the consumers and that cause
many people to regard silk as an un-
certain and treacherous fabric, with an
4nexpNcabfe tendency to split. crack
and fall into holes, even though pack
ed away In drawers or hanging up.
The use Of cheap. inferior and de-
structiye dyes IS another practice
equally injurious and perhaps still
more common.-London Family Her

The popular impression that physl-

incorrect. They extend their services to

really priceless and impossible to rep
