Pearls 10 Be Very Dear.

A good deal has been said about the
high prices at a recent sale OF Jewelfy
in Messrs Debenham, Storr 4 Sons auc-
ton rooms, and surprise has been eX-
pressed that one pearl necklace alone
should have sold for f6S00. \ representa-
tive of the Tribune had an interview on
the subject yesterday with A. G.. Magln'
mis- Joint managing director OF the Gold
smiths and Silversmiths company limited
in Regent street. Mr.. Maginnis said that
E6S00 was by no means an exceptional
sum for a pearl necklace. Il have had
the identical necklace in my hand this
morning he continued, "and | certainly
do not think it was dear at the price. But
we have in stock here a number which
are far more valuable. At the Paris eX-
hibition of 1900 we had a white pearl
necklace on show. the price Of which was
100000. Such prices as t25,OOO, t3O.VVU
and t40,000 are not at all uncommon. The
reason that pearls bring in such enormous
prices is that fine specimens are scarce.
First. they must be perfectly round, then
they must match. Not one in a thousand
usually made so that the pearls are large
in front and taper off gradually at the
back. This adds to the difficulty OF
matching them To make up a really
weI-matched necklace may take years.
Undoubtedly the price has gone up
during the last 10 years, and it is still
going up. This is due partly to an in
creased demand. Then the company which
took over the Ceylon pearl fisheries about
year ago is closing them down for L
months to enable the oysters to recuper'
ate. Therefore, during the next year OF
so, very few new pearls will come into
the market. London Tribune.

Frederick Schlimme a stonemason, died
recently in the public hospital at Bruins,
wick, Germany, having lived for nearly ID
years in water. In November, lS94,
Schlimme, who was then 20 years old, fell
from tree, injuring his spine seriously
practically his backbone was broken and
his spinal cord crushed In consequence
of these injuries the lower portion of his
body was paralyzed and certain internal
organs were prevented from performing
their usual functions In order to save
his life the physicians ordered him per-
manent bath in which he has since re-
ciined. his body supported on cleverly
contrived rests. The water was kept at
a temperature of 81 degrees F., and I'M
mersed in the water Schlimme felt little
or no pain In a short time he was able
to do basket and wire work, and make
cages, etc. He also bred canaries. in large
numbers, and displayed such ingenuity
after and fetched high priees.-San Fran

The heavy snowfall and storms in the

snTinr forcibly illustrate the proverb OF 1t
being an i'll wind that blows no good. For
tbe last half century there has been OBJ.
served steady diminution in the, area OF
the Swiss glaciers, and ieremiads have ap.
peared in print as to the dark prospect
Should tourists once turn their faces in
other directions. The rigors OF l9O6-l9OI
have changed all this. According to all
the authorities, they have left a deposit
which will go far to rehabilitate the gla-
ciers
