closely drawn girdle of gold braid IS

VI in social life. There are cos

the completing touch OF richly set
gems, just as there are costumes
which are perfect only when worn
absolutely without jewelry; and just
as much modishness is conveyed by
the setting of ones jewels as by the
cut of ones frocks or the trimming
of ones hats.
Just now pearls are prime favorites'

fashionable esteem, and q genuine

BILE fortune while even for a pearl
set ring or a pair of pearl earrings
a substantial sum must be expended.

women are genuine pearls, however.
Not by any means. But the imitation
of precious Jewels has been so digni-
fed of late by scientific processes that
no stigma attaches itself to the wear
ing of reconstructed emeralds," for
instance, or scientific pearls" These
products of the modern alchemist are
combined with genuine diamonds In
settings of gold and the more costly
platinum, and even the millionaire
does not hesitate to purchase them
for his wife and daughter
There is more and more tendency
to match the costume with jewels
or at least to select Jewels that will
harmonic with and perfect the cos
tume-rather than to load the per-
son with costly gems, a practice which
is nowadays confined to the class
which believes in diamonds as an in
vestment, knowing that in time of
stress value can always be realized on
these stones.

Statement
Is Issued by Secretary Bryan inI
Defense Of Proposed Treaty
with Colombia.

WASHINGTON. July 13.-secre-
tary Bryan has issued a statement
defending the proposed treaty to set
tie differences between the United
States and Colombia over the sepa-
ration of Panama. The treaty has
met vigorous opposition in the Sen
ate, and Former President Roosevelt
has attacked 1t as a vehicle for the
payment Of "blackmail.
Mr.. Bryan declared that it was
necessary to discuss only tie fact that
an estrangement exists, and not the
events which gave rise to the differ
ences; and that regardless of wheth-
er Colombia has just grievance
against her more powerful neighbor.
no one would deny that the former
country sustained great financial
loss, considerably more than $751;
900, 900 which the United States
would pay under the treaty, through
the separation of Panama. AS to the
expression of regret on the part OF
the American goernment, to which
opponents Of the pending convention
offer their bitterest objection, the
secretary said this was almost identi-
cal with similar expression in the
Du Bots memorandum on the basis
OF which the Taft ADMINISTRATION UNI
successfully sought to placate Calom-
lombia.

the state forest, game and fish war
den. j. A. viquesney.
Many complaints have recently
been heard In regard to the pollution
of waters and the state administra-
ton will wage a vigorous campaign
to correct this evil. During the un-
usual dry weather Of the last several
months. the pollution in. many
streams has become more noticeable
than ever before, not only making
the water In a number of the rivers
deleterious to fish life, but also unfit
for domestic use AMI injurious to the
public health. Warden Yiauesney
has been making visits to the var
ious industries throughout the state,
whose waste matter goes into the
rivers for the purpose Of formulat-
ing some efficient method by which
this pollution may be entirely etm-
mated or reduced to minimum.
To Utilize Waste.
It is stated that already the Par
sons Pulp and Paper Company at
Parsons has begun the construction
|of a by-product plant for the purpose
Of utilizing the waste material that
has heretofore been permitted to dow
into and pollute the Cheat river.
Other similar industries have stgni.
fed a willingness to construct such
plants as soon as It Is determined that
they can be made practical and ef.
fective. To gain Information that
will aid in this experimental work
Mr.. Viquesney will spend the next
several weeks visiting the paper
mills and tannertes Of Pennsylvania,
Virginia and other adjoining states
for the purpose Of collecting data
and comparing methods. "
