Have Been Known as Far Back as History Reaches, and Their Signifi cance Has Seldom Been Thor oughly Appreciated. "Tbe oldest book In the world," said the wise woman of the party of card players, indicating the pack of cards held In her bands. "Its leaves have been called playing cards since the fourteenth century, but they were known as far back as history reaches, by the Chinese, Persians and Egyp tians, not to name the ancients of prehistoric times. A pack of cards said to be a thousand years old Is preserved in the museum of the Roy al Asiatic society. "The women who play bridge all the morning and then all the after noon, and after that go to bridge par ties In the evening," said another of the party, "little think what ancient things they are playing with. But what was the purpose of this book in the time before it became a game?" "The mystic book," answered the wise woman, "held the hidden wis dom of the ancient world. It was used by tbe priests in their temples when time was young. Call its ori gin Egyptian or what you will, It Is full of astronomical symbolism, and the wisdom of numbers; such learn ing as men had of old was carefully concealed from the uninitiated. But to those who could read it the mys tic tcBt book was a veritable book of fate. "The cards, for one thing, are all symbols of the astrological art Each one 1b an emblem. It would tire you it I would attempt to go into the sub ject deeply. I can only glance along the top waves of the deep ocean. But notice a few particulars which He upon the surface. "Tbe 62 emblems or pages of this book represent the 62 weeks in the year. The 12 court emblems are the 12 months, the 13 cards in each suit represent the sun and the 12 signs of the zodiac, the four suit figures the four seasons. "Further but this you can easily see the heart is the emblem of spring and love, the trefoil or clover leaf we call It club of summer and knowl edge, the diamond of autumn and wealth, and the acorn or spade, of winter, labor and death. The pages of this book are in red and black. White was once used in place of red. These colors In the cards symbolize night and day, astro nomically, and the lights and shades of life as applied to man. "Look closely at the court cards and notice the emblems carried. These all survive from the ancient forms. The queens hold the lotus flower, supplemented In the case of tbe queen of spades by the distaff, emblem of Industry, kept through all the long centuries. The king and queen of clubs bear symbols of wlBdom, the king still plainly showing the winged globe. "Each suit has its mystle symbol ism, corresponding to the planets. In both suit snd spots. Venus and Mer cury rule hearts. Mars and the earth rule clubs, Jupiter and Neptune, dia monds; Saturn and Uranus, spades. But I am becoming too astronomical. I must close this fascinating book." "No, no," tbe others protested. "And what about the Joker?' "Oh, the Joker is a modem inven tion. He does not count In any se rious game of life or of cards. Tet there was in the days of old always a court Jester, so this new card is not really out of place among queens and kings." Fortunes In Lace. Several millionaire families in New York possess Immense fortunes in laces alone. Tbe laces owned by the Astor family are valued at $300,000; those of the Vanderbilts at $500,000. It Is said that the New York Four Hundred buy more lace than any collectors In the world. No fewer than twenty wealthy women may be mentioned who each own lace worth $50,000. Lace is the luxury of tbe rich. No ordinary middle-class collec tor can hope to possess anything but a few choice pieces, it lucky enough to bo able to have those. There are several fine collections amongst the English aristocracy. The priceless lace of the late Queen Vic toria, worth 'at least $375,000, was chiefly left to H. R. H. Princess Henry of Battenberg. Queen Alexandra has a magnificent collection; years ago Its value was said to be $260,000. Llvlng-Room Hints. In the living room, where the fam ily Is wont to gather after the day's work, let there bo a numbor of small tables, with a good light for each, so that everyone may have a chance to read or work In comfort, or lie stretched at ease on the couch, paper magazine In hand. Let the living room be the subject of much thought, that It may have a very definite Influence on the life of each member of your household. Plan, for big room, If possible, at least couple of couches and numberless easy chairs, says Mother's Magazine. Many a man who now spends his time at the club or the saloon would far rather stay in bis own home could he bul have the chance to sit and read by a well-lighted table, where be could smoke In peace, with no fear of drop ping ashes or leaving the odor of as -welcome cigar behind.
