SILK ORIGINATED IN PERSIA
Considered FIT Only for Women In IT,
berius' Time and Forbidden
to Men.

Wrought silk was brought from
Persia to Greece in 325 B. G. 1t was
known in Rome at the time of Tt
berius,, when the senate prohibited
the use of plate of massive gold, and
forbade men to debase themselves by
wearing silk, fit only for women.
Heliogabalus first wore a garment of
silk in 220 A. D. Silk was at first
of the same value with gold, weight
for weight, and was believed to grow
on trees. Silkworms we're brought
from India to Europe in the sixth
century. Charlemagne sent Offa, king
of Mercia, gift of two silk vests.
The manufacture was encouraged by
Roger, king of Sicily at Palermo,
when the Sicilians not only bred the
silk rvrms, bit spun aGi Eove the
silk. The manufacture spread into
Italy and Spain, and also into the
south of France a little before the
reign of Francis l., about 1910; and
Henry propagated mulberry trees
and silkworms throughout the king
dom about 1900. In England silk
mantles were worn by some women
of the nobility at ball at Kenil-
worth castle in 1886.

Discretion.
Advertisement

There is no talent so useful towards
rising in the world, or which puts
men more out of the reach of fortune,
than that quality generally possessed
by the dullest sort Of men. and in COM
mon speech called discretion; a spe-
cies of lower prudence, by the assist
ance of which people of the meanest
intellects, without any other qualifica-
ton, pass through the world in great
tranquility, and with universal good
treatment, neither giving nor taking
offense.-Swift.

Brain and Boards.

The ancient Babylonians displayed
their superior intelligence by refusing
to wear boards, but the Assyrians let
them grow wild. The Jews all wore
boards, as they were forbidden to mar
them. The Tartars waged long war
with the Persians, declaring them in
fidels, because they would not cut
their boards, after the custom OF the
Tartars. Which proves that the Tar
tars were a brainy tribe.-Pittsburgh
