LADY AsToR HAS RARE GEM
Diamond She Owns Was Worn by
"Queen Bess," Marie Antoi-
nette, and James l.

The new Viscountess Astor is the
owner of the famous Sancy diamond,
which is set in magnificent tiara some
what similar to the gala head-dress of
the Russian national costume The
Sancy diamond is '.Friolette"--that is,
cut equally on all sides-a condition
which bewildered modern jewelers.,
who found it difficult to set the stone
safely.
The stone has a romantic history.
De Sancy, a Frenchman, sold the gem
to Queen Elizabeth, who wore the
stone in London, as did James l and
the duke of buckingham. Henrietta
Maria took the Sancy to Paris after
her husbands execution. 1t became
part of the French crown jewels, and
was worn by Marie Antoinette. 1t was
valued at a million francs ($200,000)
by the French republican government,
was stolen, and reappeared among the
Spanish crown jewels in the middle
Of the last century. After the revolu-
ton of Isabella II it passed to the
Maharajah of Patialia, was exhibited
In 1867 in Paris, and was bought by
the late Viscount Astor shortly be-
fore his wife's death in 1894.

PREPARE TIRES FOR
LONG, HARD WINTER
Car Owners Should Take Few
Necessary Precautions.
Carefully Wash on Outside to Remove
All Harmful Substances, Wrap in
Paper or Carpet and Store
in Dry Places

The skin is thick or tie belly of the
Goldfish and the fur is heavy on the
back of the squirrel, so prepare for a
long, hard winter.
Many motorists will soon put their
cars in the barn for the winter and
think no more of motor riding until
about the ides of March.
Many automobile tires will go into
storage with thousands of miles of
wear left in them, and car owners
should take the few precautions nee
essary to keep them from damage
while they are not in use.
Here are some recommendations
made by the service department of a
large tire company to the motorist who
wants to put his tires away and find
them in good shape next spring:
1. Wash tires carefully on outside
to remove oil and other harmful sub
stances.
2. Remove tires from wheels and
wrap in paper or old carpet.
3. Store in cool, dry place, away
from light Heat, light and moisture
are enemies of rubber,
4. Cold has no bad effect on tires,
but they should be properly housed.
5. If tires are left on car, Jack UP
car, debate the tires and wrap them
in covers.
6. Don't let car stand on tires all
winter. To do so means weakening
them in the parts that rest on the floor
Care will make the tires last out the
full length of their guarantee, despite
climatic conditions.

HOW
RHEUMATISM
BEGINS

The excruciating agonies of rheuma..
esm are usually the result of failure of
the kidneys to expel poisons from the
system. If the irritation of these uric
acid crystals is allowed to continue, in
durable bladder or kidney disease may
result. Attend to it at once. Don't
resort to temporary relief. The sick
kidneys must be restored to health by
the use of some sterling remedy which
will prevent a return Of the disease,
Oil Capsules Immediately. They have
brought back the joys Of life to count
less thousands of sufferers from rheu-
matism, lame back, lumbago, sciatica,
gall stones, gravel and other, affections
of the kidneys, liver, stomach, bladder
and allied organs.
They will attack the poisons at once,
clear out the kidneys and urinary tract
and the soothing healing oils and herps
will restore the inhamed tissues ana
organs to normal health.
All others are limitations. ASK for
