CUBA IS MARKET FOR
SOLID COLO JEWElRI

Cuba at this time presents unusual
opportunities for the sale OF American
jewelry. silverware, and kindred
lines, according to a report by TRADE
Commissioner s. w. Rosenthal, OF the
bureau OF foreign and domestic com
merce. The island Is exceptionally
prosperous because Of the high prices
which 1t has received In the last few
years for sugar.
Cuban markets have been open to
American manufacturers since the be-
ginning OF the war because OF. curtail
ed shipments OF jewelry from the us
ual sources OF. supply. Germany has
shipped nothing and the jewelry from
other European countries was. for the
time being Of inferior workmanship
These circumstances, the trade COM

can manufacturers an exceptional op.
portunity to increase their trade.

small country. with a population but
slightly larger than that OF the state

In their expenditure for it, since their
fashions encourage the wearing OF
more jewelry than ours. This mar
ket follows European styles. which
is natural, since the prevailing popu-
lation is of European origin, and
jewelry has been mainly supplied
from there. To American manufac-
turers who are seriously interested In
building up permanent trade in
Latin America, Cuba offers an excel
eral they will have to follow the pre-
vailing styles of the island. This
should prove to be a profitable mar
ket II they spend the time, money and
effort to give ii what 1t wants.
Cuba is primarily market for
solid-gold jewelry. There Is limited
demand for gold-plated and gold filled
articles. as we'll as for goods made OF

THE NAUGHTY Wife,

At the Academy Of Music tonight
and Saturday, with matinee Saturday,
Selwyn and company newest farce
The Naughty Wife, which was writ
ten by Fred Jackson, the short story
writer and author Of "A Full House. =
1t is said that The Naught wife" has
Deen the most successful Of any Of Mr..
Lackson's plays. and was produced last
season by the Selwyns at the Harris
uhen their own theater, on Forty
second street
The play has also had extended en-
gagements in both Boston and Chi
oago, and seemed to be as well liked
in these cities as in New York. Previ-
Gus to the writing of this play Mr..
Jackson's most successful was The
Full House"
Like the Seawyn's other farces
Twins Reds" and Fair and Warmer .
to which The Naughty Wife" was
designed to be a successor. the story
deals with the troubles that befall
young married couples. In Jackson's
farce. the leading character, Hilary
harrington. Is a young novelist, who
has recently taken unto himself a
wife, who Is not only pretty but fond
OF attention and a good time.
Engrossed in his work. the young
writer has become a little bit neglect
full Of the youthful partner Of his joys
and sorrows and she, resenting this.
has decided that she no longer cares
for her husband. and proceeds to ar
range an elopment with another man.
When harrington awakens to this
condition OF affairs, he at first can
not realize that it can be true, but is
assured of the fact when his wife
calmly and naively discloses the truth
10 him herself. Hubby realizes, that
he is in bad fix and knows that des-
perate remedies are necessary, and
concludes that his best mode OF attack
Will be to pretend not to care. and in
one OF the scenes he is found helping
wiley to pack her trunks preparatory
to departure.
There are numerous other complica-
tons in THE Naughty Wife" that are
sufficient to keep the audience con-
vulsed with laughter for two and a
half hours. The play will be pre-
scented here by capable company,
chief among its members being Reeva
Greenwood. Gordon Elarid. c. Elwood
Farler and Gertrude Walthers.
