the administrations had left no .ouye-
Mrs OF their tableware. Mrs. Baker
found china N only seven dining
sets those Of Lincoln and later Pregi-
dents. Apparently old White House
china had not been regarded with any
eye 70 its historic importance.
President Washington set pre-
cedent in this connection when ne held
a sale on moving from the Executive
Mansion ia New York to Philadelphia.
All the furniture and china that IN his
estimation were "decayed" were sold
at auction. After that, White House
sales Of broken lots OF china and of
damaged ware were customary. Sec-
ond hard dealers were the chief at
teudants at these sales. That things
sold cheap is attested TO BY such
stories as the one that cracked
Lincoln pitcher sold for $3.50.
Gradually. antique dealers saw pos
sfbi1ities in White House china, and In
the copying Of f. So many stores IN
Washington were selling authentic
White House plates by Mrs. Roose-
velt's time, that she put a stop 70 TIE
White House china sales.
The design Of the Roosevelt state
dining set was patented. so that Il
could not. like other historic sets. be
copied in cheap ware for general sale.
This copying became nuisance in the
time Of President Hayes, when the
most elaborate dinner set ever made
for the white House was designed.
This was a pictorial set, each piece
bearing a scene. or some animal, bird
or FISH The idea was 70 represent the
fora and fauna N every state. The
china vas of beautiful quality and
the designs were artistic, but when
they were copied In cheap china and
sold the Hayes dishes lost the indi-
yiduaIity which was their main charm.
With White House china designs
so much copied that many people
owned articles they honestly thought
genuine; with the historic White
HOUSE china scattered 10 the ends N
the country BY Gales: and with 10
systematic records kept Or the articles

DICE LONG KNOWN TO WORLD
Amusement 10 Probably the Most An.
eient Game. According to Records
Of Old Writers.

The Oldest amusement il the world
Is dice-throwing.
In some form or another, dice have
existed in every period Of history.
They are shown on early Egyptian
monuments. and some dug up at
Thebes recently are exactly similar to
those In use today. They are men,
toned in laws regulating games
played in ancient Greece and Rome
and most other countries In Europe.
The invention Of dice is attributed
to Palamedes, one Of the heroes who
sailed against Troy, about the year
1874 B. c.. but the use of cubes with
numbered sides for gambling purposes
is probably much earlier.
Frequent passages In the works Of
ancient writer's and numerous repre-
sentations In marble and paintings
show how popular dice-playing was
among them.
