GRANDMOTHER NOT so SLOW
Possibly Less Flip" Than the Maidens
of Today but She Seemed to
Get There.

Grandma disdained the first aids to
beauty-pOwder, rouge, eyebrow pencil
and eyelash lotion.
She acknowledged before the world
that she had ears. She exposed them
to view.
She attended church regularly. She
knew nothing of theaters, movies and
chewing gum.
She danced the minuet with men
she knew. She would have been horri-
fed with the primrose dance, the hula
and the shimmie.
She wore high necks and long
sleeves, both trimmed with lace. She
would have considered the sash and
shoulder strap Of today indecent.
Her skirt was very long and her toes
peeped in and out like tiny mice, we
are told. She would have been scan
dalized by the knee-length skirt. the
sheer hose and the low shoes of the
present mode.
She gave no thought of career, the
vote or the great question of the day.
And yet
She knew what to do when grand
father came along.-Judge.

Natural coIored Silk,

Experiments made in France have,
1t is reported, shown that the yellow
and green col0rs possessed by the silk
spun by certain caterpillars are due to
coloring matter derived from the
food, and passed through the blood of
the spinners. BY impregnating leaves
with artificial colors the experimenters
caused some species of caterpillars to
produce silk of bright orange yellow
and fine rose hues.
BY the aid of the spectroscope the
presence and nature of colored pig
ments in the blood of the little crea-
lures was established.
