The de- tefioration may be retarded or hastened by: climatic conditions or by the tem- | ing it in its best condition It is believed that the climatic con- ditions of the countries where the earliest silk wuvsn%evms done has much to do with their preservation. China was the first country to have isilken fabrics. The silkworm flour- !ishes there, and silk, whether in the | cocoon or woven into us textiles, |1s at home In its native environment. | It belongs to the climate. The Chinese | were. and apparently remain, contented | to have the silk soft. They do not de- mand that it be made stiff as if starched. Rich and heavy the silks | often are, owing to the quality of the !'silk thread and the fineness of the | weave. It was true in ancient days | that silk was precious and every care | was taken to keep it in the finest condition. The contrast in viewpoint concerning silk in those early ages and today is nm-lln% This is an age of silken gar- ments, but it is one in which no great care of the textile is taken by the wom- en who wear the goods. This is an {age in which silk is looked upon as a | necessity, even a common necessity, and treated with little regard to keep- ‘Women demand that some silks be stiff and ! have a perky texture. that others be that some sheer silks have ¥ though they are loosely woven. etc. All these things have to be taken into consideration when the correct care is given the $ Sitk Tissue and Paper.

The soft paper absorbs moisture and prevents the silk pressing together. name of tissue paper arises from the fact that it was put between layers of goods so fine that they were called tissues. The paper laid between when the goods was exported and termed tissue paper. We cannot do better than continue to use it in this same way when we have silk to lay away.

Then Clodhopper showed that he had found an old wooden shoe with part broken off. He said that was also for the King's daughter, and again his more clever brothers laughed. “Halloo! Here 1 come!” cried Clod hopper, astride his goat. “What have you found this time?” asked his brothers. “Ah, the Princess will surely be de- lighted.” sald Clodhopper. and showed them what he had this time. “Why," sald the wise brothers, “that is nothing but mud out of the ditch!” “To be sure,” sald Hans. “And it is also the finest kind of mud there is.
