EmeraIdS Getting Scarce.

The decrease in the worlds output
OF emeralds during the past few years
has been such as TO cause grave alarm
among the dealers. Unless new mines
are discovered soon it is not unlikely
that emeralds will become the rarest
precious stones in the world.
As the condition OF the market is now,
they are worth in stones larger than
five carats from two to ten times as
much as the frst-water diamonds
In spite Of the fact that emeralds were
among the earliest stones mined by The
ancients. and have since been discover
ed in different parts Of the globe. there
IS practically only one country in the
world where they are still being mined
at a profit
And even the mines there are not con-
sldered valuable enough TO merit an eX-
pendirure Ct money for improvements
and more modern machinery and are
still being worked by the same crude
method that was employed almost 2
( century ago
Within the past fifty or sixty years
cmeralds have been discovered IN Russia,
on the Asiatic slope OF the Ural Noun
! tains, In Austria, Australia and In North
Carolina.
Mines were opened at all these places
and companies formed 10 work them,
I but in a short time they had TO be
abandoned as prOhtless in almost every
/ instance. The present supply, which is
limited, comes from Peru, South Ameri-
ca, from what is known as the Muzo
District.

sponge and a pail Of fresh water Put
some Of the cleaning mixture in a bowl

Of chiffon. generally of some unbecOming
shade. thar a mistaken woman wraps
around her hat and then around her
neck, and then allows TO fall TO the bot

The automobile veil would ruin the

The chiffon veil waving from a hat was
bad enOugh-the automobile veil is it
intensified a thousand times. And you
might record. while you are recording
that people who own automobiles never
wear automobile wells
Still there is difference Of opinion
on this matter. You must decide for
yourself whether or not TO wear the

TO SHRINK LINEN FOR
SHlRTWAlST SUITS

If white walking skirt Is planned
for shirtwaist wear this summer, il is
better TO get the linen or duck or what
ever the chosen fabric, and have Il
made. The ready-made ones are almost
sure 10 shrink awkwardly at the first
washing. whereas the goods in the piece
can be subjected to a shrinking process
before being made up.
The best way to do this is to leave
the fabric wrapped in folds, just as 1t
was purchased, only removing the wrap
ping paper. Pin the Iolds. so they
will not come undOne, and lay the bundle
OF linen in the bathtub. covering II
with water and allowing IT To remain
there over night. Next morning place
il In the sun and leave it there till dry
stili folded and pinned. When finally
undone ii win be found as smooth as
when purchased needing no dulling
iron, and get shrunk 10 its pOst-launder-
cd proportions.

This being the case, and it being con-
coded that advancement must be the
result of INDIVIDUAL effort it must fol-
low that the converse cannot fail OF
being true. Each of US women who is
wishing i'll to-say. for instance. Senator
Smoot-aIthough he Is merely an in
stance-is doing an injury not only to
herself. but TO her sex and her race
AS St Paul says, If enc member OF
the body suffers the whole body is out
of harmony. So If we women are al
lowing ourselves any but the most
charitable thoughts. we are lowering
our standard OF spirituality and are
thus injuring the race. Better let Sem
atOr Smoot enjoy his seat in the Senate
with as many wives as he chances TO
possess, than by the exercise of envy,
hatred and malice and all unchar1ta
bleness" we should be less than We
ought TO be. PEGGY QUINCY
