MAY YET BE KING OF SERBIA
Possibility That Happening, Put Forth
as Romance, May Be Turned
Into Reality.

1t is an interesting coincidence that
The Lost Prince" Mrs. Frances
Hodgson Burnett's romance based on
an ancient legend of Serbia, should
have appeared at a moment when the
actual lost prince in question is said
TO be living in New York
The legend, which Mrs Burnett was
told some years ago by a Serbian
friend, referred to the old Serbian
dynastic house of Lazar and it pre-
dicted the eventual return to power,
after many tribulations, of the long.
exiled heir of this house.
The present head of the dynasty is
Prince h-Hrebelianovich, who
has now for some years been living in
this country and whose wife, formerly
Eleanor Calhoun of California, the &C.
tress, has published a volume of rem.
iniscences entitled Pleasures and
Palaces"
At this time of momentous change
for Serbia it is quite within the range
c. possibilities that the old legend
should come true and that the hero of
Mrs. Burnett's romance, in the person
of Prince Lazarovich's son Doushan
should win his throne in fact as well
as in fiction.

REVEL In COSTLY JEWELRY
New York Women Participate i'm Pros
perity That Has Come to the
Great Metropolis.

While her sisters in London, Paris,
Berlin and Petrograd are discarding
their jewels, giving the gold to the
common treasury and selling the gems
to swell relief funds and keep the wolf
from the door, the New York lady is
daily acquiring an increased penchant
for the finest jewelry that the world
produces. Prosperity is once more
smiling on New York, particularly in
the financial district, and consequent
ly the great jewelry houses are bene-
fitting thereby, says the Wall Street
Journal. Any of the leading Fifth
avenue diamond merchants will tell
one that hundreds of prominent Wall
street folk visit their showrooms
weekly to buy of the best, and the
best is never too good for them to
tender to their womenfolk
Many European workers in gold and
silver, whose art is famous in Europe,
and who could not have been bribed
to work in this country couple of
years ago, have come to these shores
seeking work which cannot be found
in Europe.
The great De Beers syndicate in
London has prevented an influx of
gems on the market by purchasing
privately the collections of jewelry
offered by prominent women in the
European centers, and this has I'M
doubtedly held up the price for dia-
monds. Many great American jewel

rope soon after the war broke out in

ebb little over year ago now has

LUNATIC TOLD COURT
STORY OF WANDERINGS
Severy, Formerly Inmate of Brattle
boro Retreat, Shot at Ten Per
sons in Albany.

ALBANY, \. Y, Feb. ). - Harold
L. Severy, the Boston youth who shot
four persons in this city, before being
committed to the Matteawan state hos
pital for the criminal insane yesterday
by order of Judge Addington, adj
dressed the court for half an hour. He
told of being confined III the retreats
at Waverly and Westboro, Mass, and
Brattleboro, Vt, and Of his escape
from the latter institution He also
described his wanderings since he left
Brattleboro and the attempts he had
made to put an end to the persecution
to which he believed he had been sub
iected. On the day preceding the
shooting in this city, he said, he shot
at FIVE persons in Rensselaer,, on the
opposite side of the Hudson river, but
so far as he could tell none Of his in
tended victims was hurt On Friday,
according to his tale, he fired at ten
persons in Albany.
Severy then went to Schenectady, he
said, because he saw none of the
wounded persons drop and he believed
that more powerful weapon and
larger bullets were needed to end the
imagined prosecutions.
Edward S. Crockett, an attorney Of
Boston, who appeared for the young
man, stated that Seyery s parents, who
are visiting in Los Angeles, Cal, be.
lieved he should be confined in some
institution.

BUYING BOOKS.
Pointed Suggestions and Good Advice
from an Authoritative Source.

from an Authoritative Source.
(Reprinted from bulletin Of the Pub
lie Library of New York City)
The library's first purpose is to lend
its books, but it would not be doing
its duty if it did not encourage its
patrons to own as many books as posi-
BILE for themselves
The best way to buy books is, one
at time. 1t might seem unnecessary
to give this advice, if there wer0 not
on the market so many sets, and eli
braries - of books which are advertised
on ''easv terms. One favorite device
is to offer the complete works of this
or that writer, or the library of
the greatest poets, or the .'most
famous orators, or the "ablest essay
lists of the world. Thousands of such
sets of books are sold every year;
some of them in cheap form, at q low
price, and others with every device Of
gold leaf and colored plates which can
/ be expected to catch the dollars Of
the foolish. The glittering bad taste
| of most of the editions de luxe - and
limited editions are only equalled
/ by the gullibility of their buyers.
/ Aside from the contents Of the book
itself, the first mark of good book
/ is that it is a genuine and correct edi-
tlon, and this means that 1t IS pub
lished by reputable firm, which has
the right to publish it. The second
requisite is that it shall be well print
/ ed, and that chiefly means that it is
clearly printed The third requisite
IS that it shall be well bound-that is,
bound serviceably. 1t does not mean
that its covers are to be decorated
with gew-Caws and doodads A beau
| tifully bound book is a work of art
The cheap limitations in the average
edition de luxe are the paste dia-
monds of book-making.
1t is best to avoid buying books in
sets, complete works, or libraries.
If you buy books by the yard, you
are following in the steps of the newly
rich person who tries to appear cul-
tured, and who has always been an
object of derision What matter if
your books are not all the same size
and style? You do not insist that all
your friends should be the same height
and clad in the same color of clothing
why should you try to make your
library look like an orphan asylum on
parade? The library of a book-lover
is varied; the books are of every color
size, and description; many of them
are shabby and worn, and they are
interesting to him because he remem-
bers where and when he bought each
book He did not let some dealer foist
a yard of books upon him, as if litera-
ture could be sawed off like kindlino
wood.
Do not buy sets with names such as
The Most Stupendous Classics of the
Ages or 1.-The Best Brazilian Bards

Electric Steel Production.

Electric steel appears to be making
much progress in Germany. a report
for 1914 shows the total production
of crucible and electric steel to have
been 1S4,400 tons and the electric
product was nearly 10000 tons-only
$500 less than the output of crucible
steel. And more electric furnaces
were expected. OF the 20 plans pro-
ducing electric steel eight were max
ing high grade material to supplant
crucible steel and II employed the
electric furnace to melt ferro-manga-
nese. The induction furnace was
most used of the various types.

More Power to Vermont sugarmakers
(Rutland News

\4huItdtlNA ANCNS.j
1t is not creditable to the ten
thousand maple sugar makers of Yer
mont that less than 400 of them be-
long to the State Sugar Makers as
sociation. Every owner of an orchard
of any considerable number of trees
would find it to his financial interest
to affiliate with the organization, and
1t is passing strange that such Il
small percentage Of the total number
have joined. The state association has
done a great deal to protect the city
markets against the spurious article,
to prevent substitutions, to secure the
most favorable prices and to raise
the standard Of Vermont sugar and
syrup. The industry today yields
practically a million dollars a year
and it is authoritatively stated that
this amount could be easily doubled
if owners of maple trees showed the
proper enterprise and adopted modern
methods of tapping, boiling, packing
and craftsmanship. More power to the
united effort
