Small Profit for the Risk.

Democrats who have analyzed the

feet upon the cost of living find that

may effect a saving of 66 cents per
capita in the cost of food. A wage
Garner getting $3.50 day and hav-
ing a wife and two children would
save in food cost the equivalent of
pne days wages year. If the Tar
iff affected his line of endeavor to
its disadvantage so that he were de-
prived of one days work through
depression he would be even.
While a days wage is the limit
he may hope to save in food cost.
II his employer is harmed by the
Tariff one days work isn't frac-
tiOn to that he would lose in a year,
even though his wage was not cut.

MATCHING PEARLS.
orisnta's Believe In Sex and Affinity
In the Gems

Most brides are partial TO pearls, and
In sorse eastern countries no other
jewels are allowed to figure among the
bridal ornaments
In Persia the notion prevails that
the pearls themselves are susceptible
OF married bliss. Among the hereditary
jewelers. Of the Persian court IL is an
article of faith that pearls have sex
and that every one has its mate. its
equal in size and beauty. The su$est
way to avoid the dreaded pearl disease
is to mount the pearls I'm pairs. II de-
prived OF their mates they langjlish
and lose luster; hence the desire to
match pearls which has led to such ex-
travagance
IL is said that the great glory Of the
ropes of pearls given to Queen Alex
andra by some of the princes of India
was the perfect matching Of almost
all OF the pearls. Thus the eastern
experts believed they were assuring
long life for these Jewels. II is believed
to foretelI misfortune for the owner Of
pearls when they contract the pearl
ulSeHSe.
Some readers may remember that
the first whisper of coming misfortune
for the beautiful Empress Eugenie
arose when the news was spread
abroad that her pearls were spotted
and crumbling away. OF course. the
French Jewellers would have derided
the eastern notion of sex and affinity
In pearls. but the keepers of the shah's
jewels believe i'm 1t. and they have
preserved many of the crown jewels
for centuries. Modern jewellers are al
ways on the lookout for opportunities
Of matching pearls. You do not find
them so anxious to match diamonds
or rubies. And 1t is curious that
