The invention of playing cards has been variously aftributed' to India, China, Arabla and Egypt, but there seems to be litle doubt that they orlginated in Asia, and were introdaced into Europe about the close of the thirteenth century. There is o historical mention of the game of cards in Germany ‘in 1275, in Italy in 1299, but not in France until 1393. In the 'sixteenth century the manufacture of cards was a flourishing business in England, and under Edward IV, their importation was forbidden te protect the home industry. The marks upon the suits of cards are belleved to have been chosen to repre- sent eymbolically the different classes of society. Thus, the hearts stood for the clergy, clubs for the soldiery spades for the serfs and diamonds for the mer- chants. In the early French cards the kings wero pictures of David, Alexander, Caeser and Charlemagwe, = representing the monarchies of the Jews, Greeks, Ro- mans 'and French. - The - queens were Esther, Judith, Argine and Pallas. The suits of the earllest German cards were designated by hearts, bells, leaves and acorns. Itallan cards had swords, batens, cups and money. The court cards at first were the king, chevalier and knave, the queen being first substi- tuted for the chewaller by the Italians.| The English cards in the seventeenth century were embellished with heraldic designs, the king of clubs bearing the coat-of-arms of the pope of Rome, and those of hearts, diamonds and spades be- ing adorned respectively - wifh the armor- ial device of the kings of England, Spain and France. The club of modern cards derived its form from the trefoil, a French design. | k. w. (Continued from Page Sevem) charge of $30 & year a k. W. for'all eloc- tricity used.

MASSACHUSETTS REQUIEEMENTS FROM THE MUNICIPAL PLANTS Estimate of the Cost of Elestrictty to the " Clty orsTewn for Appropriation. Prior to 1918 the statutes municipal -lighting. plants in setts prescribed ‘that this-excess’ to S es- How American Women | May Keep Faces Young || "Phe American smart woman ages early, far earlier than _the ~English woman,” says Christian Miller, F. C. L, the famous English heaith expert. She adds that our climate “so exhilarates that you overexert yourselves and grow old before you know it. THat same exhilarating air dries the skin. The skin that lacks moisture grows pale and withered looking and soon forms wrinkles. “The American complexion” is best treated by applying pure mercolized wax, which causes the faded, . lifeless cuticle to flake off in minute particles, a little each day, until the fresh, young skin beneath is wholly in evidence. Every druggist has mercolized wax; one ounce usually is sufficient. Spread on at night like cold cream, washing it off next morning. gross expense of operation, maintenance and repair, interest on the debt created to pay far the plant, depreciation, sinking fund or debt requirements, and loss, if any, in the.operation of the plant-during the preceding year) over .the. estimated income from sales to. private: consumers should be included in the annual appro- priation for maintenance and in the tax levy. For this excess, which it was re- quired thus to raise by taxation, the city or town received its street, and, in some cases, its _public_building 1lghting. The statutes were amended in sub- stance. in the general acts of 1918, re- quiring-that the -managers- of ‘municipal plants shall include in their annual esti- mates of receipts and, expenses’ an esti- mate of the cost of the gas or electricity to be used by the city or town;, and" that the city or town shall include in its an- nual appropriations not less than such,| estimated cost. A further change was or electricity to be used by the city or town," such cost thereafter to include i terest on the outstanding debt only, and not on the investment as theretofore. This change provides the municipal lighting' plant with a’ definite fncome for one of the most important features of its business, namely, the supnly of electricity to the street lights and public buildingt based upon the actual cost of service. MUNICIPAL ELECTRIC PLANTS COMMERCIAL ENTERPRISES No Appropriation Should Be Made from the Tax Levy for Any, Purpose. Edmund Earl Lincoln, M.' A, Ph. D., instructor in economics and_tutor in the on of history, government and eco- Harvard university, has made an exhaustive and thorough investigation of the subject and published the results .of his investigation in a book of 483 pages, entitled The Results of Municipal Electrie Lighting_in Massachusetts. In his con- clusion, Professor Lincoln says: “The writer believes that, under euch effective regulation of the electric light and power business as is found in Massa- chusetts, there is no reason whatever why a municipality should invest in an elec- tric plant, certainly not a generating plant. No real economics are likely to be thereby effected. and the p lity of loss is great. There may be instances in which public ownership of merely a dis- tributing plant is highly desirable. Yet this form of ownership, also, from an eco- nomic point of view, i justified only when private business cannot be Induced to enter the field except at prohibitive rates. The day has long passed when there is no alternative between unrestricted private industry on the one hand and public own- ership on the other. “There now seems to be no valid rea- son for using the taxpayers' money for the sake of doing what can be as well done without adding to the ever-increas- der the stances, advocate a further municipalization of the industry in Mas- sachusetts.

In no other way can the public be made to understand clearly what they are gaining or losing as a result of mu- nicipal ownership. Only by subjecting these privately owned plants to the Same tests that are applied ‘to private busineés can we reach any definite conclusion 35"t0 their real efficiency. “This means that they should sell streat lighting sarvice to their municipalities-at what appears to be a fair price, and that in turn they should pay~taxes at the usual rates. They should own all of their property, or, ifmunicipal real estate is utilized, they should pay an equitable rental therefor. Further. the service ren- dered by any public offiefal should ‘be es- timated and charged at the true’ ¥alge-of that service.
