The boy shown in the picture is
Prince Johann Leopold of Saxe-Co-
burg-Gotha. He is playing with his
fathers sword. His father is Charles
Edward, reigning duke of Saxe-Co
burg-Gotha, and some day Prince Jo-
ham will reign in his stead, if he
lives. Strange as it may seem, the
young prince is partly of English de-
scent. Duke Charles is the o of the
Duke of Albany. whose mother was
Queen Victoria of England. He was
born in England and educated at Elton,
though now he is in arms against his
fathers people. So Prince Johann Is
a great-grandson of the late Queen
Victoria. The little prince is nine
years of age and has often visited
England, where he has many relatives
of royal blood.

Rlowino Bubbles.

Children usually prefer to blow the
bubbles into the open air and watch
them sail into space. However, many
interestinn tricks can be done with
soap bubbles. II blown on to a piece
of felt or wooden cloth spread on a
table the bubbles will bounce lightly
and will not break at once. With a
little practice bubbles can be hitched
to each other, the first one being at
tached to a piece of worsted suspended
in the air, and a pretty little chain
of bubbles is the result. A bubble a
be made to walk" a tight rope. Hold
a piece Of worsted yarn in a slanting
position, blow the bubble or to the
upper end, and it will dance and
bounce down the string to the lower
end, thence making a flying leap to the
floor. There are many other tricks
that may be done with soap bubbles,
some comparatively simple. while 9TH
ers require a great deal of practice
first. Try some of the simple tricks
suggested above and when proficiency
is attained in executing them you will
be ready to try more elaborate ones.

The First Gem.

The pearl is the one gem that comes
to man perfect from the hand of ma
ture, and to this its great antiquity
as a gem Is largely due, Precious
stones whose beauty and brilliancy de-
pend on polishing and cutting would
naturally be discovered and utilized
later.
The discovery of the diamond, for In
stance, probably dates within historic
times. Though known earlier, it vas
not generally included among the gem
treasures of royalty even as late as
the seventh century.
1t is quite probable that the pearl
was the first gem known and treasured
by prehistoric man since the search for
food must have been the first occupa-
ton of the earliest Of the race. and
the shining pearl would thus have been
discovered In river mussels If not In
marine oysters. Certain 1t Is that the
Old Testament and the ancient written
histories allude to pearls and that re-
m0ter evidence is found In the tombs
and ~excavated cities of still earlier
a The Egyptians, Babylonians and
Assyrians held the pearl in an esteem
