SUPERSTITION AND GEMS.
Some Points About the Topaz, the
Ruby and the OpnI.

A Maiden lane jcwclcr speaking of
the trade in jewels said the other day
that superstition with reference to them
had Il serious effect upon the trade.
Some people will not buy or wear topaz
unless they were born In November,
and others cannot be induced to buy
rubieS unless they were born in July.
1t doesn't concern many people about
rubies. because their price Is too high
for most persons TO wear them. There
are not two hundred good rubies of any
size worth speaking of in New York,
but the topaz is abundant and is not
dear.
Then there il the superstitious objec-
ton TO opals, which are regarded as
no saving natal month to lift their OPP
prObrium. They do not need the SUI
perstition to make them Objectionable,
however, because while they are very
beautiful they are also very fragile ana
should be very cheap. Out in Austria
lia YOU can 20 out with Il pick and dig
n w~heelbarrow load in an hour. The
cutting and polishing give them some
value, but ii Is something ike that be-
slowed upon cut glass. Still they rank
as jewels, and when they are sold it Is
for II price. If, however, You want to
find their value offer one TO your jew
eler either for Il cash sum or in ex
change. You will then learn what they
are lntrinSically worth-u something
near it.-New York Press.

like the first, is an argument in favor
of the demurrer to the petition of the

TALES OF TAMAGNO.
Some of the Great singers pccuIiari-
ties In Money Matters.

Despite the fabulous sums Tamagno
received the great singer had Il reputa-
ton for extreme parsimony. When
staying in Moscow he noticed that the
walters in the hotel furnished him
daily with fresh candles, although the
old ones had been barely used. This
vexed him, and. seeing that remon-
strances were of nc avail-the candles,
he learned, formed a walters perqNi-
sitc-he began to collect the candles
himself. On leaving the hotel he gath
cred up the whole collection and dis
tributed them among the walters when
they lined up to receive their tips.
. Tamagno's one interest off the stage
was his only daughter and her chill
Gren. 1t was for her that he boarded
his wealth. which he appears to have
feared might slip away. With his
daughter near him, however, he kept
open house ut his villa in Narcse, near
Milan. Once, In st. Petersburg, he dis
puted Il fee of 3 francs for the for
warding of a telegram, but on hearing
that his daughter was i'll he left st.
Petersburg and 10000 rubles ($20, HOO
to hurry to Milan.
In n Berlin hotel, after appearing in
THE Prophet" for which he received
$3.50, he ordered for his supper two
poachcd eggs and II bottle of mineral
water. Eventually he drew from one
Of his pockets Il bottle of wine, some of
which he poured into the mineral wa
ter. 1t was Il bottle which he had con
trivcd to secrete ut II banquet given in
his honor two days before in Prague.

Lincoln, Oct. 26.-Leslie NJ. Shaw,

pie appreciate. Annually we have an
excess of money during the spring

We approach the period of crop NOV
ing, for annually the volume of money
is relatively insufficient to meet this
sudden increase of business. We do
not need and must not have imitation.
The average mOun of money is in
my judgment, abundant. The difficult
ty lies in the fact that the volume
remains stationary. Among the many

How to Fill Pillows.

Any one who has tried to fill new
ticking cases with feathers knows that
the task is no easy matter. They fly
here and there, stick to clothes, hair
and carpets and nearly drive the work
er frantic But housekeepers of the
good old days had way of managing
them which is we'll worth passing 0n to
their grandchildren as the New Idea
Magazine tells. The new cases were
snwe3 firmly all around except for a
space of ten inches in the middle Of
one Of the narrow ends. The case
from which the feathers were to be
taken was then ripped open for the
same distance in the center Of one Of
the enus, ana Tue s11ro vf the slit W rrr
stitched to the sides of the opening in
the new case. This joined the two
cases closely, leaving an opening be-
tween, through which the feathers
were easily pushed by squeezing the
outside Of the case containing them.
When the latter is empty rip the cases
apart, collect the few that may still
cling to the sides or corners of the old
one, put them into the new pillow, sew
up the slit, and the troublesome task is
completed.

Members Of German Catholic So,
cieties Planning to Entertain
Central Society Here
BIC BAZAAR is BEING PLANNED
Full Week of Merriment Arranged in
Order to Secure Large Funds
Needed for the Entertain
ment of Visitors

The biggest thing in the way of a
convention ever held in Kenosha will
be held next May, when the Central
Society of the Catholic Organizations
LOT the state will hold its biennial
meeting here. This is the largest
gathering of Catholics in the state,
and at the last meeting between three
and four thousand members of the
different societies were in attendance.
The Central Society is the govern
ing body of all of the catholic orders
among the German catholics of Wis
consin, and at the biennial conclaves
every society is supposed to be rep
resented by one or more delegates.
When the Kenosha societies asked
that the next convention be held in
this city, many people feared that the
city would not be able to take care of
the great host of delegates and mem
bers of the societies attending. but
the kenosha societies have already
begun to make plans for the enter
talnment of the delegates, and every
assurance is given that the coming
meeting IN Kenosha will be the best
handled convention in a decade.
The committees to be in charge of
the entertainment have not as yet
been appointed, but steps are now
being taken to raise the large fund
that will be needed to carry out the
detailed plans for the convention.
In order to raise this fund the So
cieties of St. Georges church have
decided to unite in holding bazaar
at St. Georges hall, which promises
to be the biggest thing Of the sort
ever held in Kenosha. The bazaar
will be given on November and con-
tinue for the entire week. The enter
tainment of the bazaar will be offered
to the people of the entire city, and
every effort will be made to have
some special attraction for each
afternoon and evening.
The ladies of the church will aid
the men IN the arrangements for the
bazaar. It will be held at st. Georges
Hall and every member of the church
who can use needle is now busy at
work making something for the
bazaar. Added to this the committee
which has been appointed to secure
gifts for the bazaar is meeting with
marked success and many handsome
artio clos have already heen contrib
uted.
More detailed programs of the big
entertainments will be given early in
October. It is to be hoped that the
people of the city will give the mem
bers of the different societies their
hearty cooperation in completing
plans for the bazaar.

MARRIED 63 YEARS
Mr.. and Mrs. Gethen Have Re.
markabIe Period of Married
Life in Kenosha County
RESIDED LONG IN COUNTY

Mr.. and Mrs. Stephen D. Gethen, of
the town of Bristol, have just return
ed to their country home after an ex-
tended visit with County Clerk w. c..
Crosby and his family. In connection
with the visit of Mr. and Mrs. Gethen
in Kenosha some remarkable facts
have been brought out which indicate
that Mr.. and Mrs. Gethen have the
Wisconsin record for years married.
They have been welded for more than
sixty-three years and it is not thought
that there is another couple in the
state that have been married for so
many years.
Mr.. and Mrs. Gethen are now 88
years of age but they are still hale
and hearty and are able to look after
the affairs of their home and quite ex-
tensive business arrangements. Both
were natives of New York and
were married in Schoharie coun-
ty in that state on April 4, 1912. Mr..
and Mrs. Gethen came to Kenosha
county in 1845, landing at Southport
in May of that year. A short time
later they went to the town of Bristol
where Mr.. Gethen purchased the
homestead. Since that time they have
been residents of this county and
both Mr.. and Mrs. Gethen have been
prominent in the affairs of the
county.
During the week that Mr.. and Mrs.
Gethen have been in the city four
generations of the family have daily
gathered around the Crosby table.
Mr.. and Mrs. Gethen have three sons,
e. r. Gethen of Kenosha, Frank
Gethen of Bristol. and John Wesley
Gethen who resides in South Dakota.
The other generations were filled in
by Mrs. W. c. Crosby, daughter of
E. r. Gethen, and Leeta Crosby, the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Crosby.
| Mr.. and Mrs. Gethen have lived a
quiet life and for this reason the fact
that they have been married for so
many years was known to only few
of their very dear friends.
