compelled to buy Boots during this

Putting it to you very frankly, we

Standstil. So many women wearing

cided not to have summer school

MUST KNOW DIAMONDS GRAIN
Point of Cleavage Has to Be Deter
mined Before Cutter Begins
Work on Stone.

In the diamond there is a grain
in the rough stone, which grain IL
parallel to any of the triangular faces
of the octahedral crystal. The stones
In the rough are examined for perfec-
ton and assorted FOR sizes. The lorg-
est stones are given very close inspec-
ton for flaws and carbon spots. When
these are found 1t may be desirable to
split the stone into several smaller
pieces to eliminate the flaws and to
secure stones of more marketable size.
II behooves an individual known as n
"cleaver' to know thoroughly the grain
of the diamond In the rough. Some
times days are taken to decide on its
cleavage In order to get the largest
and best results-a mark Is placed up
on the diamond with pen and ink, a
tiny groove Is ground into 1t and the
stone mounted on the end Of holder
with the sharp edge Of another dia-
mond. A knife about six inches by
one inch high is now inserted into the
groove or on top Of the line, and with
quick blow the diamond separates
easily along It's grain.-Electrical Elk.

BIRD HIDES NEST CLEvERLY
South American Fiery Topaz Knows
Well the Value of Matching Colors
TO Deceive Enemies.

Perhaps the most wonderful thing
about the fiery topaz humming bird Is
the manner In which 1t makes Its nest.
In this respect 1t is past master OF
camoufiage for very observant person
or animal could be quite close to one
of these nests and never be able to dis
tlnguish It from the bough or trunk
of the tree 10 which 1t Is attached. This
nest is truly remarkable on account OF
its structure, and in appearance II
greatly resembles leather, colored to
represent the fungus and moss that
grows upon the trees in the Amazon
river region, where 1t makes Its home.
Still more interesting Is the manner In
which the nest Is attached to the bark,
as these birds weave 1t on In such
manner that 1t is difficult to see just
where the bark or nest begin. The nest
IA composed Of kind of fungus wnich
the birds gather and match their coiors
so well that camouhage effect Is COM
plete.
As might be guessed from the name,
the fiery topaz Is mostly a Driliiant
scarlet, which contrasts beautituiiy
with the few black markings notice
able on the neck, as well as the green
ON the lower part of the back. Ihere
are no more harmonious colors than
