SOMETHING ABOUT SILK. All mollis produce some forms of silk. The silk worm is liable to over 100 diseases. Silk worm eggs arc about the size of mustard seeds. Tho French introduced seri-culture in Louisiana in 1718. 111 the year 1000 the manufacture of silk began in England. In 1840 the si Hi factories of Prussia employed 14,000 operators. The product of silk in Connecticut in 18159 was live tons of raw silk. The supreme judges of the United States wear gowns of black silk. There are from eight to ten species of silk worms in this country. The Silk Association of Great Britain and Ireland was formed in 1880. Henry VIII. was the first English king to wear a pair of silk stockings. Silk goods are said to take dyes more readily than any other fabrics. The imperial library in Paris has 20 books printed on white silk. Germany manufactured in 1887G.800,- 000 pounds of silk, worth £ 1-1,C00,000. In 1714 the first regular silk mill in England was put, in operation at Derby. The inner fibers of the cocoons are much finer than those of the outer layers. FADS CF THE RICH.

[COPYRIGHT, 1596.1 ODERN scientists //'"TgjL and chemists have no respect for na- I hitely taken her xm mo ®t delicate ere- R-tions, the flowers of the field and the (r y tempted toj)hango MtJT their colors and perfumes. Strange to say, consider able success has I .. attended their ef- BP M forts, mm wJL , Mnny fashion ('//': 'wil 11// hble florist*) both '/ : /"if/ tn American and / European cities ( / /* have established regular chemical ' VijSaA- laboratories i 11 connection with their hot houses for carrying on this unique industry. The fail comes originally from Paris byway of London. The machinery necessary to prepare a flower to meet the demands j of this fin de siecle craze is exceedingly j elaborate. Syphons, carbonic acid gen- I erators, retorts of various sizes and de signs, in short nearly every appliance of a well-equipped laboratory are called into use. The up-to-date florist must be an expert chemist as well us nil artist and a horticulturist. The practice ot coloring ilowers to satisfy the taste of customers is another trick of the trade which is becoming quite common. Thia is carried out by a careful scientific method, and often as much trouble ifj taken as in any cloth dying establish ment. 1 ' The first steps in tins direction con sisted in the artificial dying of such lowers ns I he white carnation, the lily .f-tjie-vnlley, and the hyacinth. There s a well-In own New York florist who frequently changes the color of these flowers to suit the whims and fancies >f his wealthy patrons. lie finds that "ie can successfully treat almost any 'uilbous flower by placing it in a solu ion containing oxalic acid and the •q>ecinl color which he wishes to impart j 0 the petals of the plant. It was in this uiy that the "green carnation'* of tvhicli so much was heard a your or so igo, was produced; a lily-of-1 he-valley •an be changed fiom its pure white to | 1 delicate blushing pink by placing the i lit flower in red ink. The oxalic acid < n the ink opens the pons of the plant j ir.d aJlows the coloring matter t-o be tbsorbed. This same New York florist , ins long been trying to produce a blue j hrysanthemmn, with the view of leasing the patrons of the Yale foot •all mutches. He has not yet succeeded, .lit he is (irmly convinced that it will inlv be a mutter of time before chemists •nable the florist to produce every mown variety of color in flowering ilnnts. Max Nordau has been recently quoted is saying that this fashion of chungimj • lie color of flowers is 11 mark of the do ;eneracy of the age, and that it is only lone to satisfy the unhealthy cravings if degenerate persons. He does not 'lame the florist or chemist, but the man about town who wears his green •amotion, and the fashionable lady who must have flowers artificially colored 10 match her costumes. Nevertheless, t continues to Ik- done; aid as long as new and striking effects can be pro duced there will be 11 demand among 11 certain class for the colored flower. "Reality,** says 11 French writer dis coursing ujion this subject of artificial colors, "is but a vain ornament in flow ers when unaccompanied with fra grance. What good is there in this dis play of bright colors that dcl'ght the eye if the flower lias no oiler, or if it exhales an insupportable one? He pro •eeds to tell of a friend who undertook to deprive the Afrioan mnr'gold of it: ill odor, and who succeeded with little difficulty. He soaked its seeds for two 1 days in some rose water in which lie j had infused a little musk, then allowed | them to dry slightly and sowed them. | These flowers were entirely deprived I of their had odor, but were, neverthe less, slightly improved. He then sowed | the seeds of these plants after pre pa r j Lug them as above stated. The result, 1 he says, was the production of flowers j that in sweetness of perfume wer* capable of competing with jasmines and violets. In perfuming flowers, and especially in artificially strengthening and reviv ing the natural odor, florists have gone much further. It would seem that in this line there is really no limit. In or der to revive flowers exhausted by time or carriage, their extremities are im mersed in vessels containing a weak so lution of sal amoniac. Their odor is ! then strengthened by moistening them j with an alcohol solution of tlie perfume or essential oil corresponding to the nat ural scent. This is done on a very large scale with violets, roses, liaw thorns, etc., the per fumes of which are manufactured largely in France. Two such perfumes are "violettine" and "geranioline." The j former is composed of 100 grammes j of alcohol, 100 of glycerine, and ten of , essence of violet; the latter is a similar preparation in which the.essence of j violet is replaced by gernnoil or artificial I oil of rose. The glycerine in these prep arations is added in order to fix the scent, which would otherwise rapidly evaporate. A more scientific method of strength ening the odor of flowers before ship ping them or placing thorn 011 sale is frequently used. They are put into a wooden box cooled externally with ice. In the bottom of this box lies a tube provided with perforation*" and through it is sent, a current charged with carbonic acid gas nr.d the odor characteristic of the flower. This cur rent is produced by the evaporation of the liquid carbonic acid contained in a cylinder, and its flow is controlled by a regulator. The carbonic acid gas, heated by a spirit lamp as it passes through a coil or worm, bubbles up through the essential oil contained in another receptacle, and finally passes into the box where it gives up the per fume with which it is charged. Again, in order to fix the odor, the flowers are sprinkled with a very small quantity of glycerine. Not content with adding to the strength of scented flowers by this means, the flower dealers, aided by the suggestions of chemists, have gone the length of depriving flowers of the na tural odors and substituting others They have given the fragrant lilac the odor of th" rose, the pink the perfume of the violet, and tlie humble corn flower the aristocratic scent of the jas mine. It is u delicate operation and one , Lliat does not succeed with all flowers, it consists in immersing the flower in a bromide solution which divests it of | nearly every trace of its natural frag i ranee. After this it is washed, and then perfumed with the odor desired ; in 1 lie manner already described. I The results of those attempts to irn prove upon nature are not always sat isfactory. Flowers which have been doctored or revived by artificial means rarely last, long enough to afford any pleasure to those who purchase them. There is, after all, nothing that can rival the natural beauty and fragrance us a flower as it comes fresh from tho garden or hot-house; and, happily, there are still millions of people who would give more for the fragrance of one sweet violet fresh f I*olll the woods thuu all the artificial productions of New York or Raris. Moving it Whole Town. The moving of an entire city to an other point, which offers strategic and commercial advantages superior to its present location, is being proposed in the fur north of Russia. The City of Kola, 011 the peninsula of the same name, is now situated at the confluence of two rivers, the Luttojoki and the Notosero, lorming the Kola river,about 50 mih's from the Arctic ocvan. While the rivers and the bay below are nav igable for even large vessels, Kola is situated so far inland that it is shut, off from the sen by ice much longer than other seaports situated even farther north than Vardoe, in Norwe gian Lapland. The governor of the province, Archangelsk, Huron Engel ' hardt, to whose jurisdiction the dis triet of Kola belongs, has proposed to j transfer the city to a better port nearer ! the mouth of Kola river into the Arc ! j tic ocean. Imperial and ininsterial consent having been given, active prep ! arutions are now being made to trails ! port Kola, house by house, by sleighs • ! on the river, to a spot 4.'] miles below. ; The new location affords great advan tages to navigation, and since it is siir -1 rounded by hills, which will take but little expense to strongly fortify, it will certainly become a point of great strategic importance.--St. Louis Re public.
