DEALING In Diamonds.

There Is no other form In which hu-.
man wealth Is SO compact and SO dura-
BILE as In diamonds. A paper three
inches long and an inch and half
wide will hold q kings ransom In q
form that million years will not
harm and that not even fire Itself, ex-'
cept the heat Of the electric furnace
and of the Bunsen burner will de-
stroy. You would think that anything
SO precious would be hedged about
with host Of precautions Just the
opposite Is true. Men go into the of
fees Of wholesale diamond dealers, slip
packages Of uncut stones worth thou
sands Of dollars into their pockets and
go away with no record Of the transac-
ton except memorandum" Half
the business Of many dealers In, pre-,
cious stones is done by letting goods

thing that the men In the trade guard

There seems to b some misunder-
standing concerning the way in which
sharks attack victims. &. Some claim
that thsy turn over a. thsy attack "a a.
to bite more readily with their rscsd-
ing underjaw. Others claim, accord
ing to the Popular Science Monthly.
that they attack head on, swimming
to their victim In q straight hna, ~
cording to ]. q. williamson, whose
work In photographins the shark, un-
der water for motion picture plays
has been notably successful, the, head
on description Of attack Ia the corrsot
one.
II can prove by my pictures that .
shark does not turn over to bfts,"
states Mr.. Williamson. If Q shark
wants to pick up anything from the
bottom Of the sea he goes right down
to 1t as cat pOunces on a bone and
picks 1t up. A shark does not turn
over to bite any more than any other
fish does"

Large beasts of prey have a strong
antipatby to rats and mice, says the
London Tit-Bits When a mouse was
thrown into a cage where there were
two lions the animals leaped away,
roaring, apparently with fright, and
making efforts to get away from the
tiny creature. A tiger roared with rage
when first introduced to mouse. Then
he lowered his muZzle to smell It, but
would have no more to do with It and
made violent efforts to break from his
cage.
Elephants screamed. and trumpeted
when mice were introduced, shrinking
from them as far as their chains allow
ed. One elephant, however, more
knowing than the rest, when a couple
Of mice were placed on the ground be-
fore him quietly placed his foot on
them.

much reliance. He gives her due credit
for the part she has played In the ad-
vancement of his ambitions.
Brilliancy, luxury and elegance pass
ed completely from the Elysees palace
with Empress Eugene. The wives OF
presidents have sought, for political
purposes and largely also from per-
sonal preference, to give life at the
Elysees a bourgeois character; have
been snubbed by European royalty and
have surrendered abjectly the social
reign to the Bourbons and the families
of the first empire.
The difficulty Is an Inheritance from
the Empress Eugene. She mixed up In
affairs of state with such disastrous
results that when the republic was es-
tablished the government determined
to make 1t impossible for the presi-
dents wife to have enough influence
to become dangerous.
During NJ. Poincare's early political
ambitions his wife's name was brought
up by his enemies unpleasantly. Not
only was Nine. Poincare's Italian birth
held up against her, but also the fact
that her first marriage was to Ger
man, an attache OF the kaiser's EN-
bassy In Paris. She married NJ. Poin-
care after he had acted as her lawyer
In securing divorce from her first
husband. The charming Italian wom-
amber maiden name was Henrietta
Benueci-hav wing cause for divorcing
her husband, appealed to NJ. Poincare,
then one OF the leading lawyers In
Paris, to represent her before the
courts. Her excellent character and
noble qualities of mind. as brought out
during the conduct of the case, so ap-
pealed to the noted bachelor lawyer
that he was later led to pay court to
his former client and marry her.

WHAT NATION MUST DO
IF IT GOES BONE DRY
Capital Amounting to $1,000,- ;
100000 Would Have to Seek
Other Occupation.

II America were bone dry capital
amounting to more than $1,000, 600 0O(
would suddenly have to seek other oc
cupation, according to the Worlds
Work, from which also the following
figures are taken:
More than 100000 employees oa
breweries. distilleries. saloons. etc.
would have to seek other jobs. and the
wages on which 100000 American
lives depend would cease.
Besides the 1900 breweries and $50
distilleries that would have to close
their doors, manufacturers Of aud deal
ers In barrels, slaves, corks. bottles
beer pumps, boxes, kegs. cigars. bal
fixtures. motor trucks and many other
businesses would suffer incalculable
losses.
The railroads would lose 100000
tons Of freight annually.
The federal government would lose
$262 100000 annual revenue. the states
$2l 100000 year, counties $4,000. .OOC
and municipalities $50. 100000.
Americans would have to find other
ways Of spending $600,O0OOO0 a year
We should have TO find other uses for
52,0O0,O0O bushels OF barley. 100000
bushels OF corn products, 100000
bushels OF rice and lOOO00.OOO gallons
Of mOlasses.
The average flow OF water over NJ
agara falls is 23l 600 cubic feet, or
about 100000 gallons second. The
total quantity OF alcoholic drinks made
In the United States In year is about
1000, 10000 gallons. If this were turn.
ed into the falls IL would take ten min.
utes for IL TO fow over.
Ii all the barrooms In America were
placed side by side In two parallel
rows to make one street this would be
almost 378 miles long.
If all the liquor handled by the rail,
roads were loaded on one train this
would be l26 miles long and would rs-
quirs Ice, ESQ freight cars.
The money paid for the 1,8s0,oOC
automobiles sold In this country In the
ysars~ 1915-18--sbout $1,000, 600 600
would be about 100000 900 short of
enough TO buy out tho stock and equip

The grain used In making beer and
whisky In one year would make 1000.
0O000 loaves Of bread.
The rye, corn and rice so used would
feed 76,O00, 900 persons for 100 days.

The Sea Otter,

The sea otter Is nearly twice the size
OF the common river otter. and the fur,
without finishing or preparation of any
kind, Is more beautiful as 1t Is stripped
from the animal than the richest seal
skin. which has to be scraped, plucked
Of the long upper hairs and then dyed
before 1t could be recognized as the
beautiful object which the finished fur
undoubtedly is. In the sea otter's fur
the soft undercoat, the true fur, is as
thick a. that Of the seal and nearly
twice az long, while the long outer
hairs are as soft as a sable's tail and
often a pale gray, which gives to the
whole coat an appearance as of dark
fur slightly frosted over.

Steel ships differ from those Of wood
In that their hulls are made Of stssi
plates riveted together instead Of the
old method of using wooden planking.
They are enabled to float because, being
hollow, they have what is called buoy
ancy. A steel ship displaces volume
Of water equal IN weight to its own.
The principle OF buoyancy may be tsst-
ed by floating an iron pail In bathtub
full Of water.

knee length to remove the interfsrencs
while walking In q narrow trench. An.
other suggestion II that q knitted skull

In the length Of gloves and In the type
Of puttees now issued were proposed
