By the year 1851 silken garments
were common In English court circles,
although it was not until the close of
the following century that England
took up the silk industry during the
reign of Edward III. While France
engaged in the industry in the early
part of the thirteenth century 1t was
not until almost 300 years later that
the trade became well established

The economy of silk in many ways
was soon recognized when the supply
became great enough to lower the
price sufficiently to enable others
than royalty and the very wealthy
citizens to buy it.

moons of the arrival in India of the
runaway princess. she disappeared
mysteriously between suns, but 1t was
to late to save the secret. She had
not only delivered to her lover the

Alexander the Great learned the Sc

The Emperor Tiberius forbade the
