Ross Oscill0ting Pump on Demonstration at
222 West, First, Street,

The only valveless plunger pump in the
world. Its great value lies in its simplic-
ity, its accuracy" its efficiency" and
its ability to do more work with less
power than any other pump on the
market. These facts are stated as the
result of actual mechanical demonstra-
ton. The Pacific coast has great de-
mand for pumps. The agricultural
industry depends upon pumps for irri-
CATION. The vast mining industry is
greatly in need of a pump that can
handle a large volume of water. The

.ULLMAN GOES TO
SAN FRANCISCO
Bookmaker Who Held Purse STRINGS
of San Carlo Opera Company
Makes Sudden North
ern Flight

Joseph Ullman, the New York book
maker who came here as "angel' of
the San Carlo opera company. and
who seemingly developed an unsettled
condition of mind, went to San Fran
cisco yesterday. He was to have been
examined by DR.. Brainard but after
his attack on Impresario Henry Rus
sell Friday night it was decided to put
him under strict restraint till the COM
pany left. Ullman seems to have got
wind of this; anyhow, he made ar
rangements to leave on his own respon-
sibility, and took an early train yes
terday for II" city by the bay.
81 can't say but that his going was
relief" said Mr.. Russell, "as that
is not the sort of punch l like in my
bread-basket, But 1 hate to think OF
what he may do in the way of harm
to us up there. But Nat Roth has
charge of our interests there, and he
can probably wrestle with that prob
lem"
1t is understood that Ullman's af,
fairs are in the hands of John w
Considine, who will protect his finan-
cial interests.

SOCIETY FAOS

Art glass is finding many new and
novel uses, and to a great extent is be-
ginning to replace the sterling silver
and the plated ware that has found
such favor with housekeepers.
There is nothing so effective for light
ing up a table as are cut-glass CANDLE
sticks, and a hotel in New York that
prides itself upon its exclusiveness has
replaced all of its plated candlesticks
with beautiful ones of cut glass. This
house uses but the one style candles,
invariably creamy yellow tint with a
tracery of gold wandering all over it's
futed length, the steward claiming that
this type will go with any style or color
of table decorations.
Charming electroliers, too, in cut
glass are to be seen while as for the ta-
BILE appointments that are turned out in
this many facetted ware there is simply
no end to them. Fruit knives and
forks, fish sets, carvers, game sets and
such are made now with cut glass
handles and steel cutting parts The
most fastidious housekeepers are re-
jecting the silver plated knife blade al
together in favor of the steel one. a
thing for which one ought to be devout-
ly thankful, since the process of silver
plating the blade invariably takes the
temper out of the steel.
The lamp never should be placed in
the center of the dining table, either for
formal occasions or in the family circle.
Not only does it obstruct the view of
those about the board, but it is sure to
shine In the eyes of any one sitting in
front of it, causing discomfort. When
the dining table is lighted from above
care likewise should be taken.
The light either should be high above
the heads of those at table, or in the
Of 20 kNnrnars.
OF octagon shape, now so much in
vogue, long fringes should be fastened
to the lower edge.
In the arrangement of lights and
flowers for dinner parties, novelties al
ways are being devised by the caterers
and florists, but this Is a subject upon
which fancy is allowed to run without
criticism. A pretty artistic effect
which bespeaks the individuality of the
hostess. always is appreciated and
pleasing, If II does not interfere with
the comfort of her guests, as by plac-
ing a high centerpiece of any sort upon
a table set for luncheon or dinner.
Such form of decoration will oblige
the guests to lean over In their chairs

ranged towards the corners of the

For the tea table, either for the large
reception or small afternoon tea, these
precautions need not be observed.
For such form OF table decoration
Los Angeles herald., 1907-03-10

nothing is more popular this year than
the old Dutch candlesticks of brass or
the tall one of colonial pattern, beloved
of our grandmothers. A single candle
stick is placed on the small table in the
reception room, or a simple princess
lamp of glass often is used instead.
Whether it shall be a candlestick or
a lamp is a matter of choice, and the
woman who does not have either in the
most approved forms may use any of
the right size and make it look correct
by bedecking it with shade of the
newest pattern.
Clouded amber is receiving quite
some attention at the hands of ex-
pensive jewelers.. Really exquisite
combs are shown in this, set with pearls
and semi-precious stones; while as for
other uses fashion, for the moment, de-
clares that the clouded amber is to be
far and away preferred to the clear
kind. For one thing, clear amber is i'm
itated to a marvel in celluloid and other
artificial products of kindred make; but
the clouded amber has, so far, escaped
the f1attering come-down of imitation.
Necklaces, lorgnettes, fan mounts and
umbrella handles are shown in this, and
while carving is relied upon to some
extent to add to their beauty it is
usually the insetting of semi precious
stones that adds so much to their cost.
"Rhinestones soon get to look dirty"
said jeweler the other day, "but any
one who knows how can keep them bril-
liant and clear. This is done with
ordinary blackboard chalk. It may be
powdered or you may simply take a
stick of the chalk and rub it on to the
| stone and into the settling. Let it re-
main for while and then remove it
with brush stiff enough to take it out
of all the depresSions. A little polishing
with a chamois skin finishes the Job,
and If 1t has been well done the stone
will require close examination to dis
tinguish it from a diamond"
There is no special celebration sched-
uled for the third wedding anniversary,

A skin in green or brown tint makes
an appropriate centerpiece on which Ia
place a dainty white kid slipper filled
with flowers. Holders for salted al
monds and bonbons may be made OF

ments. There is something in a flower
ing plant that makes it peculiarly ac-
ceptable as a gift; and the fact that it
will keep indefinitely, renew its bios
SONS frequently, makes it a lasting
possession, if but good care be taken
of it.
Plantag genista, with it's brilliant array
of yellow blooms-it really is a form of
the Scotch and Irish broom-camelias,
with their waXen blossoms, meteor and

pots of lilies of the valley are what the
best florists in New York are sending
out
Broken needles, as every seamstress
will admit, are a perfect nuisance. 1t
matters not whether the eye comes out
or whether they break in the middle,
they are torment; and bent ones are
as bad. One does not wish to stop ones
work and go away somewhere to dis
pose of them, nor does one wish to lay
the bits down somewhere to be attended
to "after awhile" for fear that they
may be forgotten, and some dire ca
tastrophe occur through the neglect
The simplest thing, then, and the most
comfortable, is to have in ones work
basket tiny glass bottle to hold them;
vial such as homeopathic medicines
are kept in.
These little receptacles may be made
very artistic. They may be covered
with lace, ribbon or crocheted silk, but
however the bottle itself is treated, the
top should be covered with something
so thin that the needles may be pushed
through readily, but so close that they
cannot well escape, even should the bot
tie be turned upside down. Two oI
three thicknesses of fine net is good foI
the purpose. Through this the pointless
portions will slip as readily as those
which have merely lost their eyes; but
even the pointed bits will not come out
unaided A person who attaches one OF
these useful little articles to her work
basket will wonder after a little while
how she ever did without it.
