orchid, nile and turquoise. Artificial
silk is used for unders,ips.
There is a growing demand for
band sewing on undergarments. This
and the dainty and colorful fabrics
used make work on them more of a
pastime than a task. In silk the choice
lies mainly between crepe de chine
and radium, but one may choose wash
satin or Japanese silk. White and
colored linen lawns with fine "hand-

to justify the fine embroidery. In cot

Rosicrucians Secret
Order of 18th Century

The Rosicrucans were a secret fra
ternity alleged to have been founded
during the latter part Of the Four
teenth century by Christian Rosen-
kreuza, German mystic, who dwelt for
a time III India and Egypt, where he
acquired a profound knowledge OF the
occult arts.
The Rosicrucians, like the alchem-
lists. pretended to transmute metals, to
prolong life and to possess knowledge
Of what was occurring In distant
places. They first became known to
the world early In the Seventeenth
century, through the publication of
certain documents said to have been
issued by Them but according to many
authorities, their existence was ex-
tremely doubtful.
The Rosicrucians were also called
the Brothers of the Holy Cross, from
the notion that the name Is derived
from "cruxp (cross), and rosa" (rose),
Brewer, however, says that the word
Rosicrucian comes from 'ros' dew
and rosa (rose). "Dew was con-
sdered by the ancient chemists as the
most powerful solvent Of gold, and
cross In alchemy Is the synonym of
light, because any figure of the cross
contains the letters l. x ('light) ~

Electric Chair First Used in 1890.

The electric chair was not, strictly
speaking. invented. 1t was known that
electric current would kill, and expert
saents In killing animals by this means
had been made. A New York com
mission was appointed to investigate
humane ways of inflicting the death
penalty. The commission reported In
1888, and In that report suggested the
construction of a chair III which the
criminal could be placed for electro
cution. Such chair was devised by
the state electrician Of New York. e.
r. Davis, and appears TO have been
first used in 1890.
