THE LOST ATLANTIS.

Fate Of the Continental island ~ Told
by the Aneisnts.
1.-THE Lost Atlantis" is a favorite
subject Of song and story. and even
now strange tales are told by sailors
who claim to have seen. great white
city rearing its domes and minarets
up through the green Of the sea.
Atlantis was a continental and be-
tween Europe and America. Scion as
long ago as 600 B. c. learned the sto-
~ In Egypt. and it is from him and
later from Plato that the tale has been
handed down to modern peoples.
Atlantis was reigned over by three
kings Of marvellous power. and the in
habitants were a warlike people far
advanced in civilization. The three
kings finally became SO puffed with
power that they united forces and
planned a descent on Europe, the pur-
pose Of which was to destroy and en-
slave. The Athenians met the in
vaders and after a fearful battle gain
ed a decisive victory.
Two days later mighty earthquakes
shook the earth, and tremendous mum
dations came. When peace succeeded
elemental turmoil the sea stretched
where once had been Atlantis.

They Weave Their Thread In sksins
lnsids Their Huge Nests.
The world is indebted to the Chi
nese for the discovery Of the virtues
of the silk worm. Its product was I'M
known In Rome until the time Of Ju-
Illus Caesar, and so costly was the ma
terial that even the Emperor Aurelian
refused a dress of this lustrous fabric
to his empress. Now it Is nurtured
in almost every country, end its prod
ucts are within the reach Of all.
Besides the several domesticated
species. there is q wild silkworm
found in Central America which
weaves a baglike structure two feet
in depth that hangs from the trees.
At a distance the nest resembles n
huge matted cobweb. The insect
makes no cocoon, but weaves the silk
in layers and skeins around the in
side of the nest. From Tegucigalpa
there were sent to England some years
ago about six pounds of this silk.
There it was made into handkerchiefs
not easily detected from common silk
Of equal strength and delicate texture.
There is curious silk producing
spider in Central America, the arana
de soda, which may be seen hurrying
along with a load Of fine silk on its
back, from which trail numerous del.
icate flaments.-Harper's Weekly.

Seasons "Smart" Color 10 Pink Red.

done so this year. however. and it is a
pink red. It runs through a gamut Of

it must escape being a regular red by
several shades. 1t Ia becoming alike

1t can be wrought into wonderful sun

doubt the seasons favorite color has
