ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
AN EGYPTIAN BRACELET
BY CORA JOHNSON.

The collector of antique jewelry
emptied the contents Of her jewel
casket on the table, and turned to her
companion, saying:
Here is a bracelet which I am sure
you will like. Examine 1t closely, for
the workmanship is particularly beau
tiful and the large sapphire in the
center almost flawless. It has an in.
teresting history, for it once adorned
the arm Of Atossa, an Egyptian prin-
cess.
"One day while visiting Cairo, I
stopped at the bazaar to make some
purchases. Hating before jewelers.
booth gazed at the display Of an.
tiques, rare examples of the ancient
goldsmiths' craft.
Several rings appealed to me, but
! could not quite make up my mind
to buy. The jeweler, schooled through
much dealing with tourists. realized
this, and not caring to miss q sale,
took small ebony box from shelf,
which he unlocked and drew forth this
bracelet, Z necklace and several am.
ulets.
when I eagerly reached for the
bracelet he smiled and said: I knew
that you could not resist the Jewel Of
Atossa, and when I relate how it came
Into my possession it will increase in
value tenfold. An ancestress Of mine
was the favorite companion Of the
princess, not because she was Of no
BILE birth, but because the erratic
,Atossa wanted the most beautiful
maidens In the kingdom for her as
sociates. and she was among those
chosen.
"'Her name was Maroda and she
played on the harp with wonderful
skill.
1.-The princess seldom Joined the
court at its revels, preferring to en-
Joy the beauties Of the garden on
the housetops, surrounded by her
maidens.
when the Persians invaded Egypt
and Cambyses occupied the royal pal
ace with Pharaoh, Atossa pleaded
with her father until he agreed that
she should live in one section Of the
palace, seldom frequented by his
household. Here her privacy would
be respected and she could remain
in retirement until the Persian guests
departed.
lone evening, when the princess
and her maidens were on the house
tops enjoying the cool breezes Of the
night, a messenger summoned her to
the kings presence. She was COM
manded to attire herself and her
maidens in gorgeous raiment and ap-
pear before the guests.
"'Atossa refused to obey, and the
Infatuated king sent seven soldiers,
each Of whom bore a struggling maid
en- to the royal presence. Atossa knelt
before her father, asking for pardon
that she might return to her apart
ments.
The evil had been wrought, how.
ever, for Cambyses commanded Pha-
raoh to consent to his marriage with
Atossa. Too late the Egyptian king
realized his grave mistake and re-
fused his consent, for the princess was
little more than a child and Cambyses
long past his youth. Then the Per-
sian king ordered his guards to seize
the princess to carry her to his
ship.
AS she left the banqueting hall
she took the bracelet from her arm
and threw it to Maroda. Keep this
for love Of me-" she said.
My ancestress never saw her
again, and the bracelet has been in
our possession ever since, but need
money and must sell it.

THE SPIRIT OF LOVES DREAM.


A dream shines through life's shad-
ows-a dream that speaks to me
In mysteries of music-like bells,
heard far at sea;
A face love blest is with me where
stars of midnight beam
And | Quaff cup to dreamers for the
beauty of my dream.
Musing in the shadows, alone fill my
glass;
Yet not alone, for memories like
ghosts before me pass;
l wander in loved pathways meath
skies serene and fair.
Where the south-winds kissed the
violets and Jenny's golden hair.
In a sweet dream | see her beneath
those far.off skies,
The light of Loves own heaven
bright in her lifted eyes;
And when she said, II love you,
life's dream of heaven came true,
And only the silent cedars and the
stars and violets knew
o meadows of Loves Maytime, with
all the world In bloom,
Your memories like stars have come
to light the midnight gloom;
My heart would answer with a cry
but that it fears to speak,
For feel Loves benediction and her
breath upon my cheek.
Still let me dream forever as on this
night divine.
AS Memory sits beside me and her
hand is seeking mine.
For sweet are all the shadows, ana
blessed are the CLEANS
In the land where Love still fingers
to give me back my dreams.

Rise of Food Prices,

In the current Atlantic Monthly, G. S.
Diekerman, in discussing the drift to
Cities produces as a byproduct good
deal of information as to the rise of food
prices. Because of the drift eityward
it was expected that there would be
decline in farm products. The corn crop
of 1910 was less than that of 1900 Census
years., by 1l4,ooo,eO0 bushels. Wheat was
greater because of a better yield. but had
S,oooQoo less acreage. The apple crop was
less by 27,s16,0Oo bushels. and the small
fruits by 36,65S.0oO quarts. Proportion
ately in 1910 wheat was grown for every
1000 inhabitants on 212 fewer acres than
in 1900. with a product of 1896 fewer
bushels but "a valuation greater by s22s2-
on 800 per cent. less land. 143 per cent
less production and 469 per cent greater
value. Corn was grown on us fewer
acres for every 1900 inhabitants, pro-
duced 1887 bushels less. which was valued
at si7i3 more; or AT per cent less land.
2o9i per cent. less bushels and 43.5 per
cent. greater value. All the cereals had
II per cent. less land, Is per cent. less
product and 1873 per cent. greater value
in 1910 than in 1900 Orchard fruits
showed 32.6 per cent. fewer trees. 151
per cent. less fruit and 50 per cent. great
er value. For all crops there was 9.1s
per cent. less land cultivated while the
product cost 51.2 per cent more
Meanwhile in this decade, meat cattle
decreased $4,000. swine 1852. 600 and
sheep 9.056.000. Or proportionateIy to
each thousand inhabitants cattle on
farms decrease 219. while increasing 81 IS
head in value; swine. 1876 head fewer
with So. increased value a head sheep
2Ss fewer. and in value. s167 head
greater. There was an increase in
horses, mules and goats. But every
old northern state shared in the cattle
decrease to total of 100000 head
mir. Dickermans reasoning is that all
this comes from cityward drift re-
Sulting In a decrease of the rural pepu-
lation. Therefore, that the increase in
price of beef. mutton, pork is thus ex-
planned. The smaller crops caused by
q decreasing rural population work a
decrease Of live stock by reason of less
food for the animals. and this decrease
accounts for the higher prices of the
| dressed products But he argues still
further effects, We are not and cannot
go on exporting as large quantities of
piCtttot uhS, HitciS anu iIuttS DIS mere
| tofore and this will cause higher prices
| in all countries with which we have
| commercial relations More than this
| he traces deteriora ton of character
as a result of the cityward drift. the
| younS farm boy growing up as a city
| dweller becoming less of man in very
many ways than the boy growing up
| on farm. This. as kipling might say
is another story The exposition as to
| the rise in tire price of food products
q" cost of living seems to be traced. in
part. to positive relative decrease
and sometimes absolute decrease In the
production. compared with population.
1t is valuable showing and a very
serious one. Indianapolis News
