SQUARE CUT GEMS POPULAR That Method Bs Believed Most Effsc- tuaIIy to Set of the Beauty
 of the Stone.

A square-cut or, as the trade term goes, "trap-cut stone is one that is cut to have a flat tablelike top, whose edges the average person would describe as having been bev- eled of. This cutting is generally used where it is the desire of the lapidary to bring out color as being the greatest element in the beauty of geni and where tie setting is to be fiat and low.
 Where a high setting Is desirable, explains the New York Sun, the cut ting of colored stones is most often cabuchon (the half round or oval setting familiar to every one) being the rule for the cutting of the most common semiprecious stones such as lapis-lazuii, carnelian, turquoise matrix and others.
 Recently the trap-cut seems more widely used than formerly, since the public has learned, said Fifth ave- hue jeweler, to care more for the beauty of a jewel as a whole than for a setting ''to show off stones"
 Each specimen in the rough tends to be cut in the way that will get the most and the best stone or number of stones out of it. This depends to a considerable extent on the skill of the lapidary.

millions almost instantly; but such
messages are necessarily ephemeral;
they reach only those actually listen
ing in at the time, and they must be
stripped Of practically all detail. The
only result, from a newspaper stand
point, of radiophoning an important
piece of news is the probably selling
of more newspaper a few hours later
The greatest difficulty exerienced
in radio communication today is due
to various kinds of interference
caused by other radio signals, by in
duction from nearby electrics power
lines, by arc lights, motors or genera
tors with sparkling commutators, or
other electrical appliances, or they
may be caused by natural atmospheric
discharges, called "strays" or static"
But all these will be eliminated, or
at least minimized, as the science lis
developed. In the early years of au-
toing the sparkplug was everlastingly
causing trouble, but who ever hears
of it in this age of the perfected car?
So will it be with photography, though
Mr.. Hanson confesses that some
highly preplexing problems remain for
solution.

Among the notable professional men
OF this country who achieved great
success along strictly legitimate lines
was DR.. X. V. Pierce. Devoting his
attention to tine specially Of women 5
diseases, he became a recognized
authority in that line.
Over fifty years ago this noted
physician gave to the world a Pre-
scription which has never been
equaled for the weaknesses of
women. DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N Y,
long since found out what is natu-
rally best for women's diseases. He
learned it all thru treating thou
sands of cases. The result of his
studies was a medicine called Doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. This
medicine is made of vegetable growths
that nature surely intended for back
ache, headache, weakening pains, and
Tor the many disorders common to
women in all ages of life. Women who
take this standard remedy know that

Hon. {. c. Dickinson has filed with
the Secretary of State his declaration
Of candidacy fol- the nomination for
Representative III Congress in the
Sixth Congressional District.
This was expected by his many
friends who believe he is the logical
candidate and who feel sure that the
nomination will be conceded to him
without contest.
His record has been clean, honor
able and worthy. He is well equipped
in every way to render valuable ser
vice to his district and to the coun-
try. His experience and ability will
give him immediate prominence in the
next House.
We look for his nomination in the
August primary and his election in
November. We confidently predict
that the Old. Sixth District Of Mis-
souri, will again take its historic place
in the Democratic column. The trend
ct pubic opinion clearly justifies the
prediction of Democratic success All
November, and we feel sure that the
candidacy of c. c. Dickinson for the
next Congress will meet with gen
eral aprroval.-Clinton Daily Demo-
