at It and found II to be a tiny crys-

Turning to the walls of his house,
he saw in them scores Of similar
pebbles. He picked out few,
showed them to an expert and
learned that they were diamonds.

was discovered the famous Dutoit-

sundown to bring in his horse, Boer
farmer saw 4 meerkat scraping
earth from its burrow. The earth

man to start to fiji his handker-

he presently found, in his fingers a
three fourths carat diamond. He
paved over more of the earth and
found more diamonds. He had
found the Wesselton mine.

A stright-line skirt is narrow, and,
according to Fashions newest fancy,

suit In navy. Malay, marmot. burro.
or tortoise-shell brown, as we'll as
popular black.
A brand-new suit is offered in
herringbone tweed, with a large
shawl collar Of natural raccoon. The
coat is the new length, that is,

the normal waistline. 1t Is q dou-

Is simple and follows the straightest

p, Shawl collars OF fur are favored
this season. and are shown on some
OF the most exclusive models. One
attractive suit for dressy wear has
a large collar Of genuine beaver.
The sleeves OF this suit are flared
out from the elbow to the wrist.
Tobacco brown duvetyn Is the ia

but the coat is not 80 long as those

For sports wear, or perhaps to

and the brown and navy shades are
the most popular.
