IMPORT BEADS BY BILLIONS
Demand for Those Ornaments by the
Women of the United States
Seems Unsuitable.

Ballots and beads must belong to-
gether in the mind of the modern wom-
an. AT any rate, ten strings of beads
are worn today when one was worn
before the war and before the vote.
Beads by the billions are being i'm
ported. This years record promises
TO run far ahead Of last years, and
last years record was worth a glance.
To make any comment upon the adj
vanced and emancipated woman's in
terest In the ornament that Is usually
set down as a South sea savage's no
ton Of an all-but-complete costume Is
quite unnecessary. The figures speak
for themselves.
From central Europe, from France,
from the shores Of the entire Mediter
ranean, from all Judea, from the three
great countries of the Far East, the
making of beads for the United States
Is big business, declares New York
Sun writer. Not satisfied with the
quantity that can be turned out with
tN'i Sbphg WI hihb uN tiit JoD VI wv
Grating the dresses and the hats and
the shoes Of millions Of American wom-
en-, the demand for something differ
ent has made the best dealers set the
very South sea savage to scraping up
the seashells from the shores of lonely
isles that are all but lost on any
average map.
To the national bill for tire ma
terlals could be added the cost OF all
imported cigarettes and then the total
would be S35,000000 short sof meeting
the total outlay for feminine orna-
ments. In spite Of the increase In
the amount of coffee imported, the cup
that cheers America ut breakfast time
costs far less than the beads that
women wear. About S68,000,0O0 less.
The comedy continues throughout the
whole list of lifes lesser luxurles.
