Antiquity of Gloves. How early did mankind think of the convenience of the fingerless glove? Little was said of gloves In ancient times, hut In most cases It Is obvious that tbey had Angers. Those worn by the secretary of the younger Pliny. used wheu he visited Vesuvius, so that be might keep on Jotting down notes In spite of the cold, must have been fingered, no less than those of the glutton In Anthenaeus, who wore gloves at table so that be might ban die the meat while hot and get In ad vance of bis bare banded fellow diners.

Nature, we may reflect, has a bard time In competition with the chemist Her alow, laborious processed are one by one being superseded. Her most delicate perfumes, which be dishes to us in drops, are made by the gallon In the laboratory. The In finite delicacy of ber tints we sUmu late from a material so unromantlc at coal tar. We squeeze a cellulose prod uct through a tiny bole, and we have the silk of the silk worm. We trans form trees Into paper and educate the world. We Imitate the precious stones which Nature has produced by gigantic tic forces In upheaval, and the only difference, as was stated In our courts recently. Is that the artificial product Is more perfect than the real. Now the chemist takes starch, an unroman tlc material enough, and makes of It that rubber on which the wheels of the world go round. In the course of bis experiments man discovers a cheap method of making acetone, an essential of our modern high explosives. Somehow or other all man's experiments lead ulUmately to the explosive, which again shows how we reverse processes, for, while Na ture begins all ber work with an ex plosion, man works np to the explo sion as tae highest expression of his conquest.
