Napoleon,s Red Velvet Coat.

In the center of the other glass case
the light falls ON a magnificent coat Of
red velvet embroidered in gold. This
was presented to Napoleon when he was
first consul by the city of Lyons. A
quaint anecdote is attached to it. One
morning at st. Helena General Bertrand
paid his respects to his exiled master,
accompanied by his little granddaugh-
ter. "How badly you are dressed, my
ohild" remarked Napoleon to his ju-
venile visitor. "But, sire, how can she
help it3" replied the general. "Here in
st. Helena it is next to impossible to
buy anything worth having"
"Wait moment" said Napoleon to
the little girl. ~ am going to find you
something for frock." As he spoke he

Beautiful Garnets.

The garnet family contains many
stones used in jewelry. Mono has great
value unless it be the emerald green
variety known as uwarowite and those
soft brown green ones which come from
Brobrowska. Cinnamon stone (essonite)
from Ceylon is deep golden garnet,
unfortunately nearly always "bubbly, -
and the alrandine is q beautiful kind
of flame red, with touch of violet So
called "cape rubies" are nothing but
bright garnots, and it is but too certain
that a conflding public often buys them
for real rubies. The oarbuncle, once so
fashionable, is only garnet cut en- ca
