Thn Pearl Necklace.

Few feminine adornments have en- joyed a longer term of prosperity than the pearl necklace. whether real or sham, and many a wearer would ind herself oddly bereft indeed were she to lose her string of pearls, or did fash ion ordain them no longer permissible. Pearls may be skillfully initiated to look like the real gem, or. perhaps, in many instances, even better, but what dreadful parodies are cheerfully donned only the ultra fastidious can realize. Pearls the size of a Albert, of an tn- describabIs black yellow tint. are not infrequently to be seen worn by a com placent wearer, who ought to possess better taste, to judge by the rest of her attire No age. no nationality. appears to he proof against the pearl necklace. And 1t is all the more surprising in that there are numbers of delicately colored chains to be had for a tri1e. which are in good taste and decidedly a desirable adjunct to a costume. while this winter sees return to favor of the bead neck let. often pretty in color and likely to carry out the prevailing tint of the gown or hat Jewelry, whether real or imitation. can be either in good taste or bad; 1t Is hardly question of money. for the millionaire's wife in her emeralds or rubies can strike a note of vulgarity just as can the poor woman with her strings of beads or imitation pearls.

 Then the one-time Anna Gould went home and thought 1t over, Possibly she knows now where the other half of the necklace went. Perhaps it may be mentioned when her divorce comes to trial.
 The costly addition to the Gould family thought 1t might be useful to know the time occasionally, and he decided to have one of the finest clocks in France. When the art dealers heard of this they started to produce what he wanted. In the end he paid $60,000 for a Sevres creation, and 1t Is said that for a year a clock maker had the task of making it kep time.

 One of the greatest extravagances was the purchase of the Plaza della Scala, in verona that he might get the eleven ceilings painted by Tiepolo Scarcely had he written his check for a gigantic sum to secure the palace when he made the artists of the world gasp by putting force of men at work tearing it down. Tiepolo was a native Venetian, who died in Spain nearly 150 years ago, and his mural decorations are of enormous value. The Count had the ceilings cut out in tact and set up in his palace in this city.
 For the pleasure of insulting Presi- dent Loubet he paid $10O,O0o to engage Montjjarret, once the postlllion of the French republic. Montjarret became the little Counts outrider, simply be- cause Boni didn't like the republic or the President. and he was always eheered when he appeared at the head of the procession.

 tune:
 Whoot, whott. hough, hough' zig-zag
 and away. Tomorrow we follow but never today. A thousand lives and thousand souls Who have cast their lot together; And some set out for a whole new life And some for a change of weather For A dance or for death, Yet they sit and they sleep. Or they stare at the engines curling

 They sigh or they smile At each vanishing mile.
