1t must be remembered that the

that at that time thin cream was prob

call thin. also the old style Of measure
was rounding as ordinary and that
heaped meant to heap literally. Their
methods Of cooking and fires were so
different that much judgment will be
required to adapt the above to modern
practice with any degree Of accuracy.
AS we do not roast on a spit before
the fire. there is probably the best In
dication that We should take from the
juices Of the beef roast about quar-.

JAPANESE SILK IS REVIVED
Chemical Process Has Been DiscoI.
cred That Strengthens the Fabric
and Facilitates Spinning.

According to the North China Daily
News the ladies of America and Eu-
rope are to have the restoration of the
popular Japanese silk fabrics in large
supply and greater beauty than ever
before. It is claimed that an expert
connected with the Full Spinning COM,
pany has discovered chemical proc
ess which will be great boon to the
spinners and also to the admirers of
Japanese silk.
While Japanese sericulture was yet
In primitive condition no chemical
was used to soften the cocoon before
1t was spun into thread. Later the
spinner succeeded in getting out
thin, soaplike substance, which full
filled the long-felt want with some
success; but the difficulty was that it
weakened the fabric and took away
the natural luster. Thus japanese silk
has been steadily losing the popularity
it once enjoyed and its market has
from time to time been encroached
upon by the Italian product.
Mr.. Inouye has now hit upon meth
cd Of Strengthening the elasticity and
strength of the fabric, and at the
same time greatly facilitating the
spinning into thread. One more bene-
At from this process will be that man.
ufacturers will be able to obtain Is
per cent. more produce than by the
old-fashioned way.
Furthermore, the new substance has
an antigerm and anticorroding effect,
and will not injure the hands Of oper,
atives. Some time ago an American
Is reported to have discovered a chem.
ical compound which would preserve
silk; and this is said to be something
similar in composition to the japanese
invention.

Bea.stroke and Sunstroke.

HeatStrokp and sunStroke are terms
usually applied indfferently to either
of two quite distinct conditions to
each of which only one of the names
properly applies. Heatstroke. as its
name implies. is condition caused by
the action Of excessive heat, either the
torrid heat of summer or the artificial
heat of q foundry. Il furnace. the stoke
hole of steamship. etc. 1t occurs
with almost aS great frequency at
night as in the day. and its victims
may be overcome on a cloudy day or
without having ventured from their
homes The other form. properly call
ed sunstroke. is due to the direct ac
ton of the Sun-proba bly, Of its ultra
violet or chemical rays rather than Of
it's heat rays Only those Wllo have
been long exposed to the direct rays of
the sun. such as soldiers on the march.

III Timed Humor.

DR.. Frederick Van Eeden. the Dutch
physician and author. always kept in
sight the injustice Of fate that sub
jectS the poor TO tOrtures from which
the rich are exempt. He told the fol
lowing bitter little anecdOte. which
occurred during his student days i'll
Amsterdam:
Once poor man was brought in
affected with very strange and rare
disease of the spine that caused him,
by involuntary spasms of the legs. to
jump and to continue hopping when he
tried to stand on his legs. Our pro-
fessor wanted to show this to his stu
dents. and he requested the patient to
stand on his feet. The poor man
looked at the crowd around and said
with a pathetic, imploring look:
IF the gentlemen will please not
laugh The professor promised they
would be serious.
And yet when the man began to
hop the gentlemen roared. And |
felt the tears come to my eyes and
my fists close in my pOckets.-World's
Work
