"What a darling you are!" exclaim

about It after we are married."

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.

This Hporttnian had had excellent

One afternoon the picture man, who
was taking a nap in the hut, wns
awakened by a loud noise. He arose
and looked out. Sprinting toward him
from tho woods, hat gone and coat
talis flying, came his chief. At a con
siderable distance behind, luckily for
the hunter, stalked a huge Hon.
"Quick; Quick! Open the door,
