Artificial Pearls.

1T appears that the lining of pearly
mussel shell or of a pearl oyster
Is precisely the same material as that
which composes the pearl itself. Coat
buttons and other articles made of
this "mother-of-pear are very beau
tiful. and would. bring high prices
but for the fact that the material is
SO common.
To make artificial pearls clear,
mother-of-pearl is reduced to fine
powder and mixed with rosin, shellac,
stearin and a little pigment to afford
color.
This is the process devised by a
westerner who possesses much knowl-
edge of the pearling industry of the
middle west.
A New Jersey man has invented a
process to make imitation pearls from
beads Of highly polished silver coated
with a translucent celluIose varnish
that contains little white pigment.
Light rays reflected through the coat
ing from the mirrorrke surface be-
meath afford a pearllike effect
The most familiar artificial pearls
of commerce are globules of glass
lined with a substance derived from
the scales Of a fish called the bleak
It 10 to this substance that the rides
cence of the scales Of many species of
fishes is due.

- CHAPTER TX.
HENRY FORD AND THE CHURCH.

7 ONCE preached a sermon for Henry
i Ford's special benefit. 1 told him
/ was going to do SO and asked him
to be present and hear it. He came
He listened very attentively. He went
away 1t was a good sermon, if l
do say it myself. but so far as 1 was
ever able to see it never faxed him.
It came about in this way:
Mr.. and Mrs. Ford were members
of my parish. / was building a new
church, a gothic structure. that was
costing considerable money. The
building had been under way for
some time and Mr.. Ford had made
no contribution toward the cost of
its construction. This somewhat
nettled certain of my parish. What
is the matter with your friend, Mr.
Ford, that he does not help us out
on this matter? Every one is giving
up to the limit, and he, the richest
man in the parish. has done nothing
This question and statement of fact
were put up to me a good many times.
Finally two members of my ves-
try, against my advice, decided to
call on Mr.. Ford and solicit a sub
scription to the building fund. They
went, spent a pleasant evening with
him, talked for the most part about
almost everything but the one thing
they went to him, to talk about. be-
cause he steered the conversation, and
came away. as have stated in
another chapter, empty handed.

we could not see them until they
came out at the bottom of the val
ley.
Two lionesses and a young lion
were first to come in sight and the
sixteen of us began shooting. We
fred several shots as others came
into view until the ten We're all in
sight at one time.
Among the ten were two large,
fully developed males. with full
names One was yellow and the
other a black name. The latter class
lis very rare, much sought after and
highly priced by all sportsmen.
Immediately all eyes were upon the
black-mane lion as he galloped
slowly along. On account of his eN-
cessive weight he was unable to keep
pace with the younger lions and
Iionesses.
- The sixteen of us -were all shoot
ing at him. While each was shoot
ing one gun the gunbearers would be
reloading the other. Bullets were
hitting all around the big fellow,
who was now we'll past 500 yards
away.
Suddenly the black name dropped as
If dead and the attention Of all was
then transferred to the big yellow
name, who had now crossed the val
Icy and was climbing the slope on
the other side.

Wherever he goes the crowds press
upon him. as if he were king out

ears. / once took him to reception

were striking all around him and he
dropped again>but in a second or two
was on his way. AS he went over
the rise every one stopped shooting.
The black name went almost out
Of sight and then turned broadside
and began to growl. His long tail
was swinging back and forth high In
the air as he growled back at US. He
had nearly escaped, but did not take
advantage of his opportunity. From
where I sat I could only see his head
and the outline of his back.
II am going to take a farewell
shot," told those near me. AS my
rifle cracked he seemed to disappear
and I fancied could hear a dull thud
echo back to me.
/ said to those near me: Didn't
the lion fall?" 1 did not see him
myself, but they said he had run
away.
/ would have thought no more of
it, but Mr.. Woosman, who was. on a
rock few feet above most of us,
said that the lion went down at my
shot.
We then returned to where the
dogs were still baying at the end of
the donga. 1t was long time be-
fore any one could get sight Of the
lioness, but one of the party climbed
a tree that leaned out over the donga,
which gave him good shot.
The lioness had backed up in a
crevice of the rock. where the dogs

eyes back he was again running hard
again.
Tho dogs that had gone down the
incline were not coming in sight at
the bottom and luckily took the trail
of the big black name and three
lioncsses that had turned at right
angles at the bottom and gone
straight up the valley.
We could see in the direction these
four were going that the valley ran
to a narrow neck and was filled with
powders and small trees, offering
some cover for them.
The dogs were about fifty yards
behind the big lion as he went into
this cover. The six that had gone
up the east slope disappeared as they
went over the top. We hurried to the
narrow neck where the dogs were
baying one of the lions. They We're
well up in the extreme end and every
one rushed to the bank on both sides
just over them. My head was now
aching so terribly I did not care
much to shoot unless it was neces-
sary.

any of the lions slipped out from the
way they had come.
AS 1 stepped upon Il rock I saw
the big black name climbing the rise
to the east. He came very near slip

the others and soon the entire crowd
was shooting at him again, but. as
before, he had a start of over 400
yards and for some reason seemed
particularly hard to hit.

those who have attained social dis
tfnction, but he is not at ease there,
and remains no longer than is
necessary.
Detroit has three aristocracies of
the Kind that bears upon its shield
the rampant dollar sign. A landed
aristocracy, descended from the
early French settler whose farm
fronted on the river and extended
in q narrow strip inland two or
three miles; the aristocracy based on
the wealth drawn from Michigan's
forests and minerals. and in these
latter days, an automobile aristo-
cracy-the product of the automo-
bile industry. Henry Ford has
stormed the doors of none of them.
People in all walks of life and
of all ranks come from near and far
to see him! But the vast majority
fail to attain the object of their
visit, due to the Chinese Wall about
him, erected and guarded by his
secretary. Those who do see him
have, as a rule. paid for the privilege
in hours and sometimes in days of
waiting. If all the hours men have
spent in waiting to see Henry Ford
were added together it would be in
teresting to know just how many
thousands of years the grand total
would represent. No king was ever
SO heaged about. none but the Grand
Llama of Thibet was ever so mac
cessible.
Henry Ford would be a greater
and wiser man If he were better
mixer and listener. An insulated
mind in an isolated body misses much
in this world that is really worth
knowing.

have seen him besieged in a similar
maner by business men at club recep-
tions. I can understand Henry Ford's
aversion to polite society. 1 do not
altogether blame him for prefering
to live behind Chinese wall.
And let no one think he has got
ten to him when. by hook or crook,
through the WALL. Back of the wall
and beyond the moat stands the cas-
tie of his mind. 1t is a mind that
prefers to think it's own thoughts and
to choose it's own themes for con-
versation. You want to see Henry
about the thing you wish to talk
about, but to tell you something he
has to say to you. You fence and
Jockey in a vain attempt to turn the
conversation in the direction of the
matter for which you have sought the
interview.
I recall, by way of illustration. an
interview which two men had with
him at his own home. 1t was by ap-
pointment, and was in regard to a
contribution to church building
fund. "what success did you have?"
I asked one of them the next day.

piled. "Mr Ford entertained us and

got a chance to mention the church"

DURING the war three men came
II all the way from New York to
see him on camp recreational work.
They had insisted on an interview,
and he had finally told them that

them. They came. He met them.
Then he came to me and said. "You

had "seen" Henry Ford and returned
to New York without putting their
cause before him.
He speaks at times with the air of
great f1nality. as a man who has re-
i5ed a revelation. or has secret
sources of information on the great
subjects of the day. He talks in short,
broken. disconnected sentences And
he has a way of discoursing on one

broken occasionally by remark
from one of his two or three IA
mliars, whose words of approval do
not always leave the impression that
they are speaking out of the depths
of knowledge or profound conviction.
Men of great wealth and limited
education often fail to appreciate the
fact that they are in danger of over
estimating the worth of their judg-
ment on matters outside the indus
trial world in which they live. Few
men have the courage to argue with
a millionaire-especia if they
chance to be in the dependent posi-
tion of employees. This silence, or at
least veiled expression of opinion on
the part of those thrown in daily
contact with Them is likely TO leave
upon a man of wealth the impression
that he is an oracle on anything he
chooses to talk about.
The isolation Of Henry Fords mind
is about as near perfect as il is pos
sible to make it. For this reason
the confidence born in him Of success
along one line never forsakes him
when he enters other spheres of
thought and action. Adverse crit!-
cism reaches him. Of. course. bur il

excellent target. as the bullets hitting
into the sand kicked up small cloud
of dust that could be plainly seen.

feet behind him. / pulled up fifteen

My fourth shot struck so close be-

him more than an inch or SO.

The lion changed ends twice and lay
ut full length ON the ground. ! hesi-
tated a moment and it was then to-"
Iate to give him the last shot that
WAS in the gun. as he was COM
yletely covered with dogs.
Upon examination it was found
that the bullet hit him squarely in
the neck and shattered the bone, kill
ing him instantly.
While we were standing by the
dead lion boy came running TO US
and said that the two white men that
had gone to the big hill We're watch
ing ten lions through their glasses
on his way to us the boy had pass
ed a small pool Of water in a hole in
the donga. We went to that, gave
the dogs drink and filled two of the
long-lcgged rubber boots with water
and had the boy bring them along.
The hill was about four or five miles
to the northwest OF US. The boy who
had come. for us showed US the way.
1t was now midday. The sun shone
down burning hot upon t. and before
We got halfway to the hill my head
began to ache. AS We drew near the
hill we passed through large valley
and upon arriving a; the crest on the
far side were met by the two Kings
African Rihemen.
They said they had watched the
lions for two or three hours and that
about an hour before they had all
gone over in the deep valley which
we had just crossed, but nearly
half mile higher up.
just before reaching the spot where
they were last seen we got in line.
pr. .pariug To march down through
the valley and give the dogs chance
to pick up their trail.
The dogs were 50 hot they could
hardly walk. I watered and bathed
them as best ! could with the water
from one of the boots and we went
over the hill where ghe 'inus Ws.e last
seen. | could see that the dogs could
p get the scent. for they We're running
here and there with their heads on
THE ground preparing to hit off the
trail.
IUST as the dogs began to open
j We heard Il savage growl. and
looked just in time to see large
lioness go down the slope.
The side of the valley was SO steep
at this place that she was immedi-
ately out of sight and we could not
~ see the ground at all until it became
more level at the bottom of the hill.
This gave the lions good start, as

is working on the theory that it is
better to be the subject of adverse
criticism than none at all-what hope
is there that any dart ever will reach
