HOWSOAP CLUE TIN and Other Things Are SOLD FOR SILK

N URING the past five or six years increasingly
/ large quantities OF aduterated silks, artificial
silks and various other inferior substitutes have
been palmed OF on the public as the genuine simon
pure article This is a comparatively new form Of
fraud and those who practice it are so ingenious that
in most instances it is said the retail dealer is as
ignorant as his customer that he is being grossly
cheated.
Glue is not a thing ordinarily associate with
silk, but chemical analysis will reveal liberal per-
centage of it in much Of the silk the market The
glue is added when the silk is reeed to increase the
fabrics weight and give it consequently a higher
value.
Other substitutes used by dishonest manufacturers
for the same purpose are various soaps oils, gums
and chemicals.
Some manufacturers believe the deception harder
to detect when the extra weight is added while the
silk is being dyed When this is done salts of tin iron
and lead commonly used.
Weighted silks look rich and feel Leavy, but the
process of giving them false value has weakened the
walls Of their fbres so that they easily break down

Cigarettes Least Harmful to Ewes

n called ambyloyfa, is the latest disease for
which smoking and chewing are respon-
sible. Oddly enough. the disease is more fire.
quent among pipe and cigar smokers and chew
ers than among cigarette smokers. The latter
escape more easily because the paper wrapping
prevents poisons being absorbed through the
mucous membrane of the lips, and also because
in cigarette the tObacco's combustion is rapid
and almost complete.
The disease is rarely found in men under thir-
ty-five years Of age AS it is most prevalent
among men Of small incomes, it is suspected
that the cheaper grades Of tobacco are more
liable to cause the disease.

First War Correspondent.

The first war correspondent, ac-
cording to theory propounded BY
Sutherland Edwards, appears to have
been Homer, who was sent by the edi
tor of an Argos paper called the
Chronos to describe the siege Of Troy
Hostilities lasted only about seven
weeks, and when they came to an end
the Greek chiefs were In no hurry tc
return to their wives. Homer was O
good sort, and as he drew large sal
airy and a handsome allowance for ex
penses from the Chronos, he readily
accepted the scheme propounded BY
the wise Ulysses-to keep the war go
ing in the columns of his paper SO long
as he could manage to write about 1t
His letters we're too good not TO pub
lish, and meantime the Greek chiefs
had an enjoyable time at Troy anc
elsewhere. Reissued in book form az
"The Iliad," these early examples OF
war correspondence have enjoyed a
wider circulation than was possible
even in the columns Of the Chronos.

COOKERY IN CENTRAL AFRICA
People There Have Wonderful Mas
terry Of the Art, According 70 a
Returned Traveller.

Probably few people suspect central
Africa OF harboring some of the most
wonderful cooks in the world. but the
fact was announced by Mrs. M, French
Sheldon, the well known trayelc- and
explorer, in the course of a lecture re
Gently.
These African people are the most
wonderful and fastidious cooks in the
world" said the lecturer; their cook
ing is marvellous and they know prac.
tically every tree and plant that simu.
lates flavor. For instance, the ne
gress chef is in no way dismayed by
the lack of onions and pepper; she
merely gathers the bark of a certain
tree and scrapes the inner side to get
the one and searches for a particular
plant. which. rightly used, produces
the flavor of the other; and her skill
and patience in blending new favors
and concocting fresh dishes are un.
bounded With these powers at her
command, 1t is scarcely to be won
dered at that wives in central Africa
are In great demand"
The possession Of many wives is, In
fact, sign Of wealth, and as their in
dustry is by no means confined to the
kitchen the chief who owns 1900
wives is really the owner Of an army
of workers, who cook, wash, garden
and otherwise justify their existence
by performing tasks usually regarded
as mems work. Marriage laws are rig
orous and some faults or crimes are
punished with great severity. A child
less wife may find herself returned tt
her father, provided the gifts she
brought her husband go with her. The
only consolation she has is that hei
position in no way damages her mar
ket value as wife II another suitol

matrimonial experience is considered
rather a desirable asset as having
taught her exactly how wife should
behave.

The Custer high school basket ball
team defeated the Hot Springs high
school team at the City Pavilion in this
city last Friday evening by a score OF

was unquestionsbly due to the fact that
they we're unused to playing on Slip

cover their men in time to avert the
throwing of basket.
Our basket throwing was done under
stronger opposition and from less ad.
vantageous positions than those of the
visitors who threw q great many goals
from ungusrded positions. Dean East
