SNAKESKINGOWN
VERY LATEST FAD
One Grown Python Alone Will
Make a Robe Fit for
Evening Wear.
LONDON, Aug. B.—For dnee fashion
has taken a direction which promises
to be of general benefit to humanity.
Womankind, or at least such as have
access to the longest purses, are short
ly to use snakeskin for garments of
quite everyday wear.
Whether the new robes will prove as
artistic as is expected remains to be
seen; they will certainly lend them
selves in skillful hands to the empha
sizing of whatever graces there may
be in the person of the wearer, and if
the thins out the number of
these dangerous reptiles all over the
world, humanity will owe a debt of
gratitude to the inventor of new modes.
We may yet come to see python-skin
sold by the yard over the dry goods
counters, for the python is a big beast,
occasionally reaching, when full grown,
30 feet in length and a foot or more in
diameter; thus, apparently, a single
skin might supply enough stuff to make
an ordinary gown on modern lines.
What the cost will be one "can not yet
say. It will obviously be high, for ser
pents of the largest size are not to be

met with every day.
The market price of skins, in view
of the coming demand, has already
gone up to a very higTt figure, and in
Borneo, Sumatra and all over the Malay
Archipelago native hunters are scour
ing the wilderness, tempted by the of
fers of dealers in Paris and Vienna,
and killing or capturing every big snake
they meet with.
How Pythons Are Caught.
In Malaya the “reticulated” python or
rice-snake —so called from his habit of
frequenting the paddy-swamps where
small game abounds —is the largest of
available serpents. The native hunt
ers, when seeking them, look for the
tracks they make in their nightly for
aging expeditions, and place on each a
large cane construction much on the
principle of the eel trap. The python
entering this to get at some small an
imal used as bait finds himself unable
to retreat, and is starved into quietness.
Pythons are also captured in the
open, which is a distinctly exciting kind
of sport. If the hunters should have
the good luck to find one asleep, coiled
up on some branch or rocky ledge,
gorged with his last meal, they throw
a net of strong rope over him and then
a long battle begins; for the python
combines the strength of a horse with a
special inability to understand when he
has met his match, it being as much as
a dozen men can do eventually to bind
and secure a full-grown specimen.
Blouses From the Amazon.
But it is not only in eastern coun
tries snakes big enough to supply rough
material for blouse and skirt are to be
found. In South America some re
markably large kinds haunt the dense
forests, especially of the Amazon, and
the swamps of the interior. Brazil has
its boa constrictors; while in other re
gions the water-loving anaconda is nu
merous, growing to a length of ten or
twelve feet, with a girth of a yard in
the thickest part, this representing a
great deal of available fabric for the
Parisian dressmaker to exert her skill
upon.
Ranging In proportions below these
Immense reptiles are a world of other
snakes, fascinating in patterns and in
finitely delicate in coloring. While the
more important sorts will no doubt be
reserved for dresses, the lesser varieties
may lend themselves to scarfs, muffs,
gloves, and so on, for it is said that
properly prepared snakeskin is both soft
and durable. The anaconda is already
“bespoke” for the latest thing in motor
coats, and thus used makes an attrac
tive novelty. Made up in delicate
shades of cream color and brown, and
lined with satin to match, the material
forms most attractive garments, which
are especially desirable by reason of
their lightness. They .weigh almost
nothing at all, and it is reported “never
wear out.”
Four fair-sized skins make a tour
ing coat, but there is some trouble in
matching them perfectly. Other uses
will doubtless be found for a species of
lesser girth, and a novel change will
come over the dry goods windows when
the fashion is fully established and
snake-hide becomes a common article
of wear.

parently important house in an excellent
state of preservation. The building be
longed to one Obellfus Fldmus, who seems
to have perished with his wife and fam
ily, for six skeletons were found in one
of the inner rooms.
The children's nursery has been found.
On the walls are pictures of gladiators
and horses scribbled by the children. The
skeletons were found preserved in lava,
and the authorities have decided that the
room shall not be disturbed. A glass case
is to be built around the relics.
Not far off is a house at the corner of
a narrow street still under the dust.
This house has been hewn out partly, but
above the wide doorway is a fresco six or
seven feet long. The roof of this house
extends about five feet over the walls, so
that it has protected the paintings.
Disaster at Election Time.
The wall of the house facing the street
is covered by red stucco, and on this are
scribbled notices and comments on the
elections, which were apparently going
on when disaster overtook the city.
In a side street is a fountain similar
to those found in other parts of Pompeii,
and opposite is a small altar about three
feet high. This apparently belonged to a
public shrine, and in the altar is cut a
channel for the blood of the sacrifice to
run off to the ground.
On the walls of another house covered
by white stucco are a number of inscrip
tions written by two women, whose
names are inscribed.
Beyond the wall is what is perhaps the
most interesting discovery of all, as it re
lates to the every day life of the citizens.
This is a wine shop, and it is so well pre
served that it might have been buried
quite recently. Entrance is made through
a doorway of fair proportions.
Coins on Counter.
There is the counter, the surface of
which is of glazed white tiles, and in
round apertures thereon there are large
terra-cotta wine jars. A large copper
boiler is still on a raised piece of ma
sonry at the back of the shop, and under
neath the boiler is a square hole for the
fire. Even the barman's till is to be seen
•on the counter. This is a small square
box of bone, and in it were found several
gold and silver coins. Other copper coins
were lying on the counter.
Cups of diaphanous glass are there in
profusion, and among other objects are
two rough city amphorae in the shape of
cocks with the beaks forming the spouts.
One very beautiful jar of opaline glass
stands about a foot high and double that
width. Very frail handles are attached
to the neck, and the latter is beautifully
formed, so that it ends in a fine point.
So fine is the hole through which the
liquor passes that only a drop at a time
can be had. There are also small clay
lamps, a tub and a copper tap.
On the parapet of another house were
found several small vessels for holding
water for pet birds.
It’s like getting money from 'home, for
it s money easily made by reading, using
and answering the Want Ads in The
Georgian. Few people realize the many
opportunities offered them among the
small ads. It’s a good sign that if the peo
ple did not get results from the Want 4ds
of The Georgian that there would not be
so many of them. If. for nothing else sit
down and check off the ads that appeal to
you. You will be astonished how many of
them mean money to you. The Want Ad
pages are bargain counters in every line.
The ads are so conveniently arranged that
they can be picked out very easy.
