Diamonds Will Remain Dear.

The major portion Of the present re-
tail price of a diamond consists Of
government taxes, Frank B. Wade
writes in Leslie's. Many years ago
South African statesmen decreed that
any diamond mines which should be
discovered thereafter should pay to
the government 60 per cent Of their
net profits in each year. The great
Cullinon diamond of over 5000 carats,
which was presented to the British
crown by the Transvaal government
after the Boer war, in recognition of
; the speedy granting Of constitution
to the conquered state, and which was
valued at $1,O0O,O00, cost the South
African state much under that amount
in actual cash, for several hundred
, thousand dollars was due the state
as tax under the above act.

Say, q second thought strikes me. l
bought this box of cigars at the drug
store. Why won't they take them
back at q discount, and why not bring
you back the money he pays me?"
"That would be a good plan, an

enthusiasm.
Mr.. Bowser departed with the box
under his arm. He did not 60 to the
drug store. He simply walked about,
and he thought how nice it would be
to smoke as he walked. He met two
or three other men smoking and the
smell of their smoke was good.
He would empty the cigars on the
ground and destroy them.
No, he'd be darned if he would {!
he would go right to the drug store
and make a sale.
He went up to the drug store and

put them away in his pocket. Then
he took walk around the block, and
in time arrived in front Of his house.
Mrs. Bowser had gone upstairs, as
the light showed. Mr.. Bowser was
glad of it. He tip-toed into the yard
and took a seat on the steps. How
nice it would be to sit there and smoke
his cigar and count the stars at the
same time. 1t wouldn't do any hurt
just to look at the cigars. 1t wouldn't
do any hurt to bite the end off.
It wouldn't do any hurt to strike a
match. Samuel J. Bowser had great
