WHERE EMERALDS COME FROM

Where do they come from-those flashing
stones of pure pellucid green that often form
the central setting of beauty's choicest gems?
Diamonds form but satellites when that rarest
of jewels, perfect emerald, flashes Its fire or
lends its sheen to the jewel-incrusted crown of
royalty. It's birth Is hidden in the mystery Of
natures alchemy, but its beauty and charm have
been recognized from the very dawn Of history
Emeralds flashed the shield Of Aaron the
Ptolemies of Egypt treasured them. and their
Iapidaries knew the art of engraving on their
hard surfaces the mystic symbols of their ancient
faith; the Theban tombs revealed choice emer-
aids among their long-buried treasures. while
Herculaneum and Pompeii have added their quota
to the greed OF modern excavators. Nero that
half-mad monster who once ruled the destinies
of Rome, used an enormous emerald for mono
cle and in the hlmy fabric of the gowns OF
Cleopatra emeralds shone in verdant luster.
Mt Zabarah, in Upper Egypt Is said to have
been the source of many of these ancient gems,
but centuries have passed since these prolific
mines we're exhausted and modern jewelers. must
now depend upon the western hemisphere for
their supply
In the spoils Pizarro sent to Spain were found
the first fine specimens Of American emeralds.
and thus was revealed another source of the
most valuable single emerald found in modern
times is the one in that famous collection OF
gems owned by the duke of Devonshire.
It is said to be perfect hexagonal crystal,
weighing eight ounces and 18 pennyweights, and
two inches long. 1t came from the mines, of
Colombia. and it is this Gouth American republic

FOLK IS BUSY AGAIN
WILL BEGIN INVESTIGATION OF
THE ROCK ISLAND.
Director Asserts the Inquiry Will Un-
cover Only Its Bad Investment
In Other Lines.

New York. July 24.-The next rail-
road to be Investigated by the inter
state commerce commission is the
Rock Island, and the inquiry will begin
next week.
Joseph w. Folk, who conducted the
commissions investigation of the New
York, New Haven & Hartford, is ex-
pected to appear at the Offices of the
company, IA Wall street, next week
with a corps of expert accountants TO
make a preliminary examination OF
the company's accounts.
A director of the Rock Island de-
clared that the company would well
come an investigation by the interstate
commerce commissioners. He said an
investigation would only bring to light
mistakes made by the Rock Island in
its investments in other properties,
such as the loss of about $15, 100000 In
the acquisition and disposition of the
st. Louis G. San Francisco; the loss OF
about S6,000,000 l.. the purchase and
sale Of the Chicago & Alton, and about
100000 loss in the purchase of coal
properties.
New Haven directors will fight to a
finish the effort of the United States
government to force them to part with
the control of the Boston & Maine
stock on the basis demanded by the
Massachusetts legislature, namely
that each certificate shall bear a STAMP
stating that the state has a right al
any time to buy the stock at the fail
value thereof in accordance with law
There will be no effort on the part Of
the New Haven directors, 1t was said
to prevent the government going aheat
with the dissolution suit ordered by
President Wilson, and there is no in
| tention of negotiations for "consen
decree" which would prevent long liti
| cation.

NO EXPERT WITNESS NEEDED
Quite Evident Mr.. Miggs Was Right
When He Testified as to the
Handwriting.
Libel, indeed"

Libel, indeed"
Old Miggs repeated the words to
himself duly and uncomprehending-
ly, as he tramped along to the court,
where he was to appear as witness
in a local libel suit
Nervously he entered the witness
box.
The fierce looking lawyer eyed him
calculatingly.
DO you swear" he asked, that this
is not your handwriting
II don't think so" stammered
Miggs.
Now, be careful" insinuated the
lawyer. Are you prepared to swear
that this handwriting does not resem-
BILE yours?"
YES" answered Miggs trembling.
You take your oath that this does
not in any way resemble your hand,
writing?" solemnly queried the
learned man.
yves, sir" stammered the witness
now thoroughly frightened.
We'll, then, prove it," denounced
the lawyer, triumphantly, as he
thrust his head toward the witness

thrusting forth his head, he yelled

Not that Colombia is the only country that has
emerald mines. Ecuador and Peru have contrib

the former country the city of Esmeraldas (Span

PRIZE FOOD.
PaTatsbIe, Economical, NourishIns.

A Nebr. woman has outlined the
prize food In a few words, and that
from personal experience. She
writes:
After our long experience with
Grape-Nuts, cannot say enough in
It's favor. We have used this food al
most continually for seven years.
I'VE sometimes tried other adver-
tised breakfast foods but we invariably
returned to Grape-Nuts as the most
palatable, economical and nourishing
Of all.
When ! quit tea and coffee and
began to use Postum and Grape-Nuts,
was almost a nervous wreck. l was
so irritable I could not sleep nights,
had no interest in life.
After using Grape-Nuts a short
time I began to improve and all these
ailments have disappeared and now |
am we'll woman. My two children
have been almost raised on Grape.
Nuts, which they eat three times a
day.
They are pictures of health and
have never had the least symptom OF
stomach trouble, even through the
most severe siege Of whooping cough
they could retain Grape-Nuts when all
else failed.
"Grape-Nuts food has saved doctor
bills, and has been, therefore. most
economical food for u.s."

"Aftor Wilhelm heard her sing he could not re-

countess father is minister of state. Coming

vvacity good looks and pleasure in pretty clothes

The dav after the marriage of Prince Oscar and
Countess Ina the royal bridegroom Will confer
settlement upon his wife. This is the "morgen-
gabe" (morning gift), from which the term NOR
ganatic' comes.
The marriage ceremony differs from the usual
custom in that the bride joins her right hand to
the bridegroom's left hand "a token OF their
unequal BIRTH and for this she cannot inherit the
estates of her husband or receive his royal name
Hence, the day after the marriage he bestows
a new title upon her, according to the arrange
ments of the state and financial settlement.
This morganatic marriage is considered as
founding an entirely new family. The kaiser Will
grant the family new name and Prince oscar
will be paid lump sum instead of his princely
allowance.
Morganatic marriages have from time to time
been attacked as equivalent to concubinage.
This is a mistake for the whole system of NOR
ganatic marriages has been built up by the
Protestant church to preserve the purity of the
marriage relation and at the same time preserve
the sanctity Of royalty.
The royal bridegroom cannot marry again in
the lifetime of his morganatic wife unless she is
regularly divorced

mother, but they Invariably obtain high oftice
and rich emoluments from the royal family when
they are grown and, as in the case OF the Tecks

served title, souls Of lackeys." The
colonel Of a Prussian regiment sta
toned in Meiningen forbade his Of
ficers to greet the wife of the duke
(now a baroness) when she passed
them. The Hohenzollerns ignored her.
BY curious coincidence on the day
when his son publicly announced his
coming morganatic marriage the kali
ser for the first time sent a message
of friendly greeting to the wife of his
cousin of Saxe-Meiningen," who that
day attained her seventy-fifth BIRTH
