Once a Manhattan. always a

Look in at the window for
some nifty ones marked way

Better still. step inside the

Harder Than Diamonds.

Although the diamond is generally
regarded as the hardest of all sub
stances, II is fact that there is a sub
stance even harder. This lis a metal
known as tantalum. n rare metal. al
though not one Of the rarest- Just
how hard it is may be imagined when
it is mentioned that ? chin sheet of
it was once placed under diamond
drill which worked day and night for
three days. The only effect was a
slight indentation in the tantalum and
the wearing OF the diamond. Tanta-
lum is very difficult to produce, but
when it can be obtained in sufficient
quantities it viii be an exceedingly
useful substance Among its other
uses it viii be enjoyed 10 gut dia-
monds and to make hlaments for cleo
trio lamps It is one of the few sub
that are hard without being
brittle

The Hague correspondence of the
Associated Press. THE Hotel des
Indes here is the headquarters of as
varied and scattered nationaIities as
one can find the world over. AT the
dinner hour one evening the Associa-
ted Press correspondent saw diplo-
matte representative of IA nations.
The diversity of opinion about the war
in such an assembly can well be i'm
agiued One neutral commented on
the unfortunate condition which made
it necessary for Holland to keep her
army in the field month after month.
Yes said a German, but she
must be ready if England threatens to
violate the neutrality of the Scheldt
and get up to Antwerp"
How ridiculous" replied another,
Holland has but one motive in keep
ing her army in the field, and that is
to fight her hardest if Germany tries
to treat her as she treated Belgium"
In the city of the peace palace all
nationalities can hold and express
opinions that would get them into
trouble in almost any other country
in Europe.
In diplomatic circles here. by the
way, American women who have mar
ried Europeans are conspicuous. Nota-
ably among them are Madame Jonk-
heer John Loudon twho was Miss Ly-
dia Eustis). the wife of the Dutch min
lister of foreign affairs; Lady Alan
