" I i i Antiquity of This Color, Ones the Symbol of imperial Power. Purple has been from earliest times one of the most precious and valuable of all colors. Away back i in ancient days it became the sign or symbol of imperial power. Even today we are familiar with the phrase "royal purple." In the Bible purple is spoken of as a highly prized and honor bearing c?lor. One of the most celebrated products of Phoenicia was the famous Tyrian purple, so called because it was largely manufactured in the city of Tyre, on the Mediterranean, or the Great sea, as it was then known. This dye was made from coloring matter obtained in very small quantities from a shellfish called murex, or sometimes purpura. It was exceedingly expensive, because it waa procured in such small amounts, and a gift of purple sent by a Tyrian ruler to another monarch was highly prized. At first this fish was found along the Phoenician coast. Later the fishermen were obliged to go farther in their search for it, even to the water about Greece. Ruins of dyeing establishments have been found near the ancient city of Toronhim When Byzantium was at the height of its glory purple was the royal color, the symbol of the imperial family. It is said that even the royal orders and decrees were written in purple ink. As for the common expression "born in the purple," that is believed to have originated from an ancient custom of wrapping the royal children in purple robes when very young. Some, however, think the source of the saying to lie in the fact that purple hangings were popular in the imperial palaces. Purple became the choice of the Roman empire also for its royal color, and it added much to the magnificenoe of the great pageants of those days. Wool double dyed with this color was exceedingly costly. For instance, in Cicero's time one single pound of it was said to have cost 1,000 denarii, or about $175 in American money. Purple today in its various shades is produced, according to its definition, by mixing blue and red. It is considered probable that that famous Tvrian purple of old was in reality a deep crimson.?New York Globe. Two Vordicts. There was a man who, in addition to being a fine-blacksmith, was as congenial a soul as one could find. Some of his well meaning friends persuaded him to take up flute playing. "You can do it," said one. "By all means," said another. So the blacksmith, being the congenial soul that he was, toodled away faithfully, in time attaining enough proficiency to imitate a peanut whistle. Recapitulation. In the opinion of blacksmiths he was a fine flute player. The verdict of the flute players was that he was a fine blacksmith. (Beautiful weather, isn't it?) ?Philadelphia North American. Compliments. It was a little hard on the boy, for he meant well and had a sincere admiration for the girl. They -'li-' -A AU . A . A_1_1_ ;J.l_ _ were silting at tnc tea tuDie witn a company of others, and as he passed her the sugar he murmured in an undertone: "Here it is, sweet, just like you." The compliment was a little awkward, to be sure, but he meant it, and it seemed more than cruel when in a moment later she had occasion to pass the butter to him and drawled: "Here it is, soft, just like you."
