DIAMONDS OF VARIOUS HuEs.
Most of Them Arc CoIorless. But Some
 Are Red and Black.

Although thousands Of men and women in Chicago wear diamonds, at least on occasions if not constantly, few know much about the precious gems they value so highly. While the largest number of diamonds are white, a clear, colorless. transparent stone is rarer than might be supposed. There are also red. blue, green, yellow, brown, black and pink ones. Heat often changes the color and after awhile the acquired hue becomes per- manent. Yellow diamonds perhaps af- lord the greatest variety of shades some of then surpass any other gem or that color. Specimens of canary eo4efed diamonds are quite common f the gem has a rose-eolored tint 1t Is very valuable. while red tints, sur Edsslng the ruby and considered the most beautiful of all precious gems, are exceedingly rare. A few varieties are on record. One weighing ten carats Was bought by Emperor Paul Of Rus- ssa f6t Yl00, 900. A cinnamon, or brown. stone is undesirable, as it is seldom StsNeh AAGAlOuu is UEdIiY 12 searca as red one Blue diamonds rank next to o.red ones in variety and beauty. Those of a dark blue color. resembling saDphires, are handsome gems differing only from the sapphires in quality and the beautiful play of eolors peculiar to the diamond The oniy real blue stones are found in the mines of India Besides the Bismarck and Hope diamonds, there are only two others in the world that are prop- erly called blue diamonds. The green varieties are not as rare as the blue. black, red and rose-colored species, yet q gfass-green or fine emerald color ts scarce. When it does occur 1t Is more brilliant than the finest emerald. here are several varieties of green tinted diamonds at the museum of nat ural history In Paris, but the best known specimen is at Dresden and is considered one of the five paragons of the world among gems.-Chicagc Chronicle.

WOMEN cf THE PHILIPPINES.
Their Reckoning Feature is Their
 Personal CIeanliness


 Personal Cleanliness.
 The aristocratie Philippine matron and her daughters indulge in no greater bodily exercise, If they can help 1t, than that required for driving or shopping But the peasant woman shares her husbands work, whatever It may be, laboring at the blow behind an ungainty carabao (water-bu -buffalo1 in the paddy-feld, or helping to pole huge lorcha, or cocoanut raft, up or down the river, besides attending to her domestic cares. And take pleas ure in saying that, whatever it's pro- prietors rank or station, the native Philippine nipa hut Is invariably marvel of neatness and cleanliness aa 10 It's interior: far superior in this re- speet to the average dwelling house. be 1t that of merchants clerk or that of the governor general. So far as the latter are concerned decent servant girl, such as are employed in America and England, would not be content to remain in one two days. Hundreds of girls are employed in the great cigar factories, and others in the convents labor to weave the far-famed pima lace of the Philippines. several at time squatting on the floor around a single frame, picking and manipulating with deft fingers the infnitesimally delicate Ebers. Sometimes they work for months to complete a single mantilla or handkerchief These native women are rarely employed by the European residents as domestic servants, except in the capacity of lady's maid or cn4l- dren's nurse, and even these positions are often occupied by boys. They are very unreliable. and the utter absence of the sense Of gratitude, so character fstio of the entire Philippine race, rem ders it an almost hopeless and very ex~ asperating task to attempt to train them as servants. Their only redeem ing feature is their sense of absolute personal cleanliness, but In spite or this many European women prefer to go to the expense and trouble of inn porting a Chinese anna from Hong Kong or Canton rather than to intrust her children to the care of a native girl; although when in her own ca- pacity as a mother. the Filipina. so far as observation goes, leaves nothing to 5e desired.

 Work.

WnTAs
 Theodore Holm, a Dane, for many years botanist in the National Museum at Washington, concerns himself only with things above the clouds. He makes it his business to probe into the mysteries of nature In the remote heights of the earth. How plants and liehens grow in rigorous climes, on the windy rocks of the snow-capped mountains and in the arctic circle is |. the special object of his research, and the comparison between plants at the poles and these on the tops of peaks Is his special delight. His search for in- formation has carried him into all parts of the world. Three times hs has gone into the arctic circle, many times to Greenland and Iceland, and times without number to the North cape and the Lofoten islands. He has climbed the Norwegian mountains and has strange things to tell about the plants that grow on our own Pike's peak. T have for a long time been studying the subject of arctic fora, 1 said Mr Holm at the Grand Central hotel, and during my studies have been in a great many parts of the globe. On several occasions I have been member of polar expeditions. h 1882-3 l was with the Danish ship Dymphna. which took part in the in- tefIadonal polar expedition, in which you will remember Gen. Greeley took Rpart Andre Hangaad was our captain. and for two years We drifted about the polar seas caught in the ice foes, The Dutch ship Varna. which we met kept us company, sank at the end ot l the second year, but we saved the crew. l began then, as the agent or the Danish government, to pursue tho studies of cireumpolar botany, and since then I have followed the work in Greenland, Iceland, ,America-in fact. all over the world. What has most l interested me has been the comparison l of plants found in the polar regions 1 with those found or the mountain tops
 My work lies wholly above the timber l line, and you will be surprised to see how many plants are to be found there. 1 There are at least twenty species Of | uOW6FluR ueTDS OLA lilS tOChy duu SuOW e covered peaks, some of wonderful beauty and color. None of them grow higher than an inch and most are only half an inch high, but they are perfect
 In their minuteness and of the most
 vivid hues. There is the Arctic pink and the Arctic dryas, both of exquisite shade and form. The Arctic poppy is another flower worth hunting for on the treeless slopes, and so is the Arctic
 willow The little Iyeapod is series of plant that is found in both high and
 low places. It is said by most bot anists not to grow higher than 5000
 feet. I have found 1t on the top of
 Pike's peak, 14,000 feet. There It is half an inch high. h Florida it grows
 eight inches tall. There is miniature clover also to be found above the tim-
 Der line. and a flower resembling the ] forget-me-not. so you see that the
 rocks which you are used to consid-
 erlng barren are by no means so to
 one who has the eyes to look for ths
 beauties that are there. Denver Re

WHERE DRINKING PREVAILS.
Patrons of Fine Saloons Take Little
 I.tuunr at n Time

Patrons of Fine Saloons Take Little
 Liquor at Time
 How can the elegant bars of the city aG ord to place before their patrons better grade of liquor while charging the same price as the saloons in tho poorer districts? Is a question frequent Y asked. The answer Is simple enough. h the former drinkers never take a bath as the saying is, but merely cover the bottoms of their glasses with liquor, while in the latter the glasses are none too large to contain the amount the patrons require. If you can tell me how many drinks a bar gets out of gallon of whisky" said q veteran of the white apron the other day T will tell you relatively where his saloon is located and what kind of trade 1t enjoys. The average for business in the commercial and office center IS from sixty to sixty-fivs. If It is patrontzed to any extent by the upper working classes, skilled meehan- les, and so on, the percentage runs down to fifty. A fellow who wasn't fSSsSa hi4Snb SuppOSe that indicated workingmen were heavy drinkers, but It's just the reverse. The average up- per class mechanic drinks very sell dom, but when he does he generally takes good one. The heavy tipplers are the chaps who take small drinks md lots of them. and a. house that has very swell custom will get from eighty to eighty-five out of a gallon. In the tough places and dives forty would be about the figure. which rep- resents an average of exactly four tfths of gill to each customer. Tn such establishments the glasses are often very thick and the inside is round on the bottom. They are deceptive and even If filled to the brim will not hold over one-half of a gill, which would make sixty-four drinks to the gallon. At only five cents apiece that would mean s3.20. and as the stuff they serve does not cost more than st the profit is a shade over 200 per cent, which ought to satisfy even a dive- keeper. IT flve-cent house set ou. thin glasses with the black bottle 1t would be bankrupt in less than week"

A. Blumberg and bride are at
present in London. After his mar
riage in this city he left for Europe
with his bride and stated that their
honeymoon would be spent around
the scenes of his boyhood in life, in
