In less than a year she has practicall recovered her chief business, sil port, “Japan, the land of the rice paddy, became Japan, the land of mulberry orchards, to satisfy the wishes of American women,” says a bulletin from the Washington headquarters of the National Geographic Society. “¥For thousands of years silk was the cloth of queens. what was once a princess’ dowry of silks is the property of nearly every stenogra- pher of any metropolis in the United States. “If a worm shall serve a princes: though she be multiplied by fift million. that worm ought to be lifted above the ranks of common crawling things.

But in season it is perfectly good form for the visitor to g0 to the kitchen and help himself. The silk worms almost force the family out of house and home. A typical farm may have a house of nine rooms on one floor. It is about 20 feet wide by 50 feet long. While the worms are small and thousands live happily on one tray, there is ample shelf room; but when they are fat, old and jui only 300 can enjoy the same bed and board. Then every inch of the house seems filled with tray t the end of 40 days’ growth the worms must be furnished with facili- ties for the spinning of their cocoons. Innumerable tiny rice straw baskets are constructed for the insects. - Silk worms are not allowed to fasten their spun_homes on twigs because that would cause wastage in the unwind- ing process. One, two or three worms will frequently spin in each basket, suspending their co- coons in midair. As in the case of the honey bee and the chick, the hatching period for the silk moth is 21 days; but if the cocoon is to be used for silk it must be heated over low fire to kill the pupa before it bores through the silken walls. At the silk mill or filature the cocoons are divided into lots of 15 to 20, placed in basins of warm water and the thread ends brushed out. The ingle strand formed by twisting to- gether the threads from 15 to 20 co- coons when wound with 15 or 20 similar strands forms the silk yarn which is the b of the raw silk of commerce. Such a strand of varn thus contains 225 or more threads from as many cocoons. Curious Tools Employed. “Curious tools are used in silk cul- ture—cleavers, sieves, chop sticks and long feathers.

But imagination is not so restricted in its us Any creative effort, how- ever pro and practical in its pur- pose, is likely to be inspired rectéd by imagination. Whoever plans for” the future necessarily in- vokes the aid of imagination. Who- ever worries about the future is ither receiving the warnings or suf- fering the terrors of imagination, Whoever sympathizes keenly with a friend in sorrow or distress is acting on an impulse that is prompted by imagination. In short, imagination is a universal human attribute. Every one pos sesses it in_some measure, In a few persons it attains a power that marks them as having genius. In nearly every one it is susceptible of growth through exercise.

J., recently issued a story of a kiss snatched from Stephen_Girard's pretty young wife by Col. Walter Stewart of the Ameri- can Army, which is a cherished leg- end of that section and for which there is considerable historic founda- tion. It is generally known that upon the approach of the British Army to Philadelphia in 1777, Stephen Girard, Who was in business there and who later became one of its leading citi- zens, moved to Mount Holly and pur- chased a small farm. There he and his wife lived and kept store for two years. __The story of the stolen kiss is told n Stephen Simpson’s biography of Stephen Girard. During Girard's res- idence in Mount Holly, the biogra- pher states, the American Army en- camped in the neighborhood, and Gi rard’s store afforded many moments of hilarity to the soldiers. One afternoon Col. Stewart and a fellow officer visited the store to make a small purchase and to see Girard’s pretty wife. Col. Stewart could not resist the temptation to snatch a kiss from Mrs. Girard while her husband had his back turned. She immediately told her husband, who forced Col. Stewart to apologize.
