Emeralda Most Costly.

Des Moines News: In the inter
national gem markets emeralds have
recently become the rarest and most
expensive of precious stones. The
diamond has taken second place, and
emeralds in London are bringing as
high as $500 a carat. This is be-
cause the emerald mines of Colombia,
which furnish IS per cent of the
worlds supply of green jewels. have
not been working for seven years.
1t is one hundred generations since
the emerald held first place among
gems The ancients thought it had
occult powers, particularly for heal
ing diseases of the eye.
Nero, when he sat in his marble
grandstand and watched gladiators
fight lions in the arena, wore an eye
glass with an emerald lens.
Pliny, who wrote a Roman encyc1o-
pedia two thousand years ago, told
of a statue of lion in Cypress. 1t
had emeraIds for eyes, so brilliant
that they scared the fish.
The wearing Of most gems signifies
little more than what scientists call
the "pecuniary honorific"-the desire
to display ability to pay. But the
emerald as coveted stone is an en-
blem of civilization. Emeralds are so
VIGOROUSLY imperfect that the COM
mon expression, "as flawless as an
emerald" is the last possible word in
compliment. The rivalry for perfect
emeralds reflects mans incessant de-
sire to attain perfection.

TODAY's BIT OF VERSE

THE JUNK Box
NY father often used to say:
my boy don't throw thing away;
You'll find a for it some day.
So in {. box he stored up things,
Bent nails, old washers, pipes and rings,
And bolts and nuts and rusty springs
DESPITE each blemish and each flaw,
Some use for everything he saw,
With things material, this was law.
And often when there work to do,
He searched the junk box through and through
And found old stuff as good new.
And have often thought since then,
That father did the same with men;
He knew he'd need their help again
1t seems to me he understood
That men, as well as iron and wood,
Nav broken be and still be good.
Despite the vices he'd display,
He never threw man away
But kept him for another day.
A human junk box is the earth
And into it we're tossed at birth,
To wait the day Wen be of worth
Though bent and twisted. weak of will,
And full of flaws and lacking skill,
Some service each render still.
Edgar A. Guest, in Detroit Free Pre-
