climax Of her undertaking was when

from rabbit skins. which she admitted
publicly were nothing more than some
of her pet rabbits.
In England, $1,000 rabbit skins a

Arctic fox and black lynx furs to fool

were produced by scores of millions
In Europe, and vast quantities of the
skins imported to the United States to
masquerade as real fur. American
breeders are raising the same kind of
rabbits that produce the best money
for the fur shops, and 1t Is certain
that as valuable rabbit fur can be pro-

OLD HOUSE TO BE MUSEUM
Movement for Preservation Of Struc-
ture Identified With Early Days
Of Southern California.

A movement is on ut Riverside, Cal,
for the preservation of a number Of
the old landmarks of the vicinity,
buildings and spots intimately connect
ed with the early-day period Of south
ern California. The plan is being fOs-
tered by the local chapter of the
Daughters of the Revolution and the
Pioneer society.
The first project to be undertaken
Is the restoration Of the old Rubidoux
home, an adobe structure, which was
built by Indian labor three quarters of
century ago. The Kubidoux family
was one of the most prominent of the
early Spanish residents. ana the home
was social center for the interior
section. Many of the notable events
of history of the period just previous
I" the fnrty-nincrS are more or less
intimately connected with this old
building which in recent years has
been abandoned and has begun TO
crumhlc away.
After In" work Of restoration is
completed. the building will serve AS
nucleus for pioneer museum for
the housing of many relics OF the early
days.

BUILT UP POLISH INDUSTRIES
Russia's Expulsion Of Jews From Mos
cow Had Results Unforeseen by
Muscovite Statesmen.

An odd bit of commercial history
comes to light with the granting Of
citizenship to Jews in Poland, and
shows how Russia. in expelling the
race from Moscow, provided Poland
with a human factor of great impor-
lance In developing her own industrial
resources, the Christian Science Mon
itor recalls. Politically Poland lay
helpless in the grip of her powerful
nelShbor, resisting as best she might
that neighbours determination to de-
stroy the last vestige of Polish M
tional existence. Industrially, on the
other hand, her coal and iron ore dis
tricts had developed Polish ccnters of
manufacture superior to those of Rus
sia, but dependent for succor on the
sale of their products in Russian mar
ketS. Jews came from Moscow who
were familiar with Russian trade con-
ditions. had already established per-
sonal trade relations with Russian cit
les. and were admirably fitted to de-
veloD commercial program between
the two countries. These men became
the natural Intermediates between
Poles and Russians in business. and
their expulsion from Russia is doubt
less one reason for the prosperity Of
Polish Industries at LODI, Warsaw and
Petrokov.
