HOW DID THE LIGHT
SUIT FEEL SUNDAY?

Mother, put my palm beach suit
away till next year, and get out my
fall overcoat.
Some OF the boys must have made
this request following the cold
wave" which swept over South
Bend Sunday. Il was chilly during
the day but at night it actually
turned cold.
OF course, the girls all got out
their fur coats and put them on eN-
hibition and motor parties were
swathed in shawls and overcOats,
but here and there the faint odor
Of moth balls told the story OF last
years styles.
Men who wore mohair suits also
wore Il guilty smile. and most of
them kept out OF the loop district,
favoring the dark streets. The
weather was a favorite topic OF con-
versadon Sunday night.

PEARLS FAMOUS IN HISTORY
Romance Surrounding Them Tran
scends That of Any Other of the
Worlds Priced Gems.

What unbelievable romance there Is
in the lives of certain pearls, passion
ately admired, desired, awaited stolen,
sold as beautiful slaves, then returned
again to their glory in the oriental
luxury of a diadem or on the neck Of
an empress Reflect upon those which
were enshrouded thousands Of years
ago In the jade casket of some Chi
nese emperor, and which, suddenly ex.
humed, find new life in rejecting the
sky! Others, in Greece, have adorned
the statues Of Venus in the temples
or, at Rome, after the conquest Of the
East, have received imperial honors.
The patrician women, M. Rosenthai re-
minds us, decred themselves with
pearls during their slumbers to possess
them in their dreams, and they sus-
pended them by threes from their ears
that the tinkling Of the pendants
might remind them of their beauty
which they could not see.
There was that pearl of million
which julius Caesar offered to Ser
villa, mother Of Brutus There were,
in our history, the pearls of Isabel de
Baviere, of Mary Stuart, the gift of
Catherine de Medici, and those of
Henry III. Pearls were present at
dramatic moments, concerning which
they tell us with more impressive ex-
actness than the historians of the
time; and you can imagine all that the
gems which adorn the portraits of the
| Florentine Renaissance must know of
the tragic intimacies of that sensuous
sixteenth century, so gorgeous and
murderous. One pearl once had ia
nous name, the name of courtesan.
1t was called La Perigrina (The In

Philip II of Spain, and Saint-Simon
