director Of the Radium Institute of
New York. has been experimenting
for four years. and has evolved a sys-
tenn by which the stones of inferior
grade. as the yellow diamonds are re.
garded by the trade. lose their yellow
hue. due to impurities. which are
drawn off by the radium treatment.
The New York scientist, with com.
mendable caution. says that he can.
not say definitely that the change in
color of the diamonds due to the
radium treatment will be permanent
But he does say that none of the
stones which have been so purified
during the four.year experimental
period has reverted to its original hue
The alchemists of old worked for
years to change the baser metals 10
SOlu anu 10 produce jewels OF value
from lesser stones. There have been
many attempts in recent years TO
make" diamonds out Of coal or other
substances, and cases have been re.
ported where stones of Very small size
resembling diamonds. have been pro-
dGced. But nothing of commercial
value has resulted so far from these
efforts.
The radium treatment Of diamonds
to improve their color is still not ready
to be adopted on a commercial scale.
Radium required for the treatment Of
a stone is valued at $4,000 It requires
four days to complete the treatment.
it is said. With the scarcity Of radiun,
in the world it does not seem likely
that the probability Of whitening dia
monds in large quantities is imminent.
DR.. Field. having improved diamonds,
is to turn his attention now to radium
treatment of other jewels. such as
emeralds and rubies.

thicken.
What possible motive could there
be for hoax? Its exposure would be
certain. The supposed finder of the
body called loudly for examination. II

hand. what motive could there be for

What interest would demand it's theft

This may, Of course, prove to be one
of those rare cases of megalomania in

report that the box not only contained
no human body. but had never con.

If the man Power actually spent
three years in search Of Kitchener S

WASHINGTON OBSERVATIONS

ner recently printed the remark that
the only statistical statement which
the Government has ever issued
which was exactly accurate was the
statement that half the married per-
SONS in the United States are fe-
males" This brings the following
comment from an official in the Cen
slls Bureau: "Cuiiously enough. al
though such a statement surely ap-
pears on it's face to be correct and
II would seem as If it must be true.
it is not correct and Is untrue The
census records show that less than
half the total number Of married per.
sons are females This is explained
by the fact that there are a consjd.
cradle number of men in our census
figures properly listed AS married
whose wives are still on the other
side of the water. So the total mar
ried men exceed the total married
women in this country"

The unconscious humorist is al
ways the most amusing. In this
category is the primary campaign ex-
pense report which has been received
by the Secretary of the Senate from
II. y. Midtbo Of Donnvbrook. ~ Oak.
Midtbo was a candidate for the sena-
torial nomination against Senator
Gerald NVe. His efforts were SO
imperceptible that he scarcely got
his name in the newspaper dis
patches outside his home State
Senate primary candidates are not
required by law to report their ex-
penses to the Senate But many do,
and Midtbo had a high sense of his
responsibilities. He sent his return
on postcard. It appears that his
expenses We're: Petition blanks. 81,

postage 75c. Total. $6.75. Then he
adds As a postscript to his return: II
did not win the nomination but
played the game square. Please call
the attention of the Senate to this
and when it has some lucrative ar-
pointive position to fill. it may have
| another name on its list as available
and worthy"
Now again for the second time has
appeared in print the statement that
President Coolidge wears an old
fashioned cotton nightshirt. And no
denial is forthcoming from the official
spokesman. The authority for the
statement this time is a laundrymar

Of tube travel. The proposal now be
ing considered is to use swift steam
ers which. making brief stops at pier
ends, would make the run in but a
little more than the time required by
subway expresses.
Certainly the situation in New York
requires relief by extraordinary meas
ures: AS the city grows and business
concentrates on Manhattan Island,
with several million people requiring
transport daily and with subways
costing enormous sums. the water
transport plan has its merits that
will probably appeal strongly to those
New Workers who are not in a frantic
hurry. It's cost will be insignificant
compared with the establishment Of
any other line Of transport possible in

The Capitol Guides.

The question Of the propriety of al
| lowing the regularly appointed and
licensed guides at the Capitol to take
fees-in fact. permitting them to
exact fees-from visitors to that build.
| ing has again been raised. Several
years ago this matter was brought to
attention and it was urged upon Con
gress for action. Nothing was done.
Now with the tourist tide increased
il is once more noted and it remains
| to be seen whether any move will be
| made at the next session to stop this
| business
1t is desirable, of course. that tour
lists TO Washington should be shown
the Government buildings properly
and TO have all points of interest eX-
planned to them. 1t is necessary that
| they should go through some Of these
places Of public interest under super.
vision. In certain of the Government
establishments they are guided by
regularly employed conductors. who
| work on a salary and who are not
permitted to take fees, as in the
Treasury and the Bureau Of Engrav,
ing and Printing. The Capitol is the
only place where fees are allowed.
There the fee system has been devel.
oped into a business.
in the circumstances in which the
ma jority of the tourists visit the Capt.
tol the fee that is eAacted by the 'of-
fetal" guides appears like an admis-
sion charge to the building. If they
reach there in large parties by sight
seeing busses they are turned over in
body to the guides, counted. and
! herded through the building at the
fixed rate Of twenty-five cents apiece.
Probably most of them leave with the
| impression that they have paid a
quarter each for the privilege Of enter
| ing a public building. They do not
know that this is an arrangement be
tween bus compa nies and the guides.
! They do not know that they could
enter and walk through the building
without hindrance and without pay
ment. They carry away an impress
sion that is distinctly unfavorable.
There arc no guides in the Library
Of Congress and visitors are free to
roam there through practically all
parts Of the building. except the read
ing room unless they are readers. The
guards at places where they should
not enter suffice to keep them in
order. The same is true in other
buildings. The Capitol guides should
be put on salary basis to give serv-
ice free to all who come. They would
proba bly, make less money. Congress
would not he willing to pay them at
! the rate of SIS "A day, which is re-
ported as regarded as minimum
taking by the average Capitol guide.
But good service could he rendered to
the people by a salaried corps and a
condition would be avoided that at
times rea ches the point of scandal and
assuredly gives rise to most unde-
sirable belief that the United States
! Government is charging admission to
it's most important establishment in
Washington.

Pipe smokers are a superstitious

Pipe smokers are a superstitious
lot
Each one believes he has some in.
fallible method Of making pipe
sweet" Sweetness. in a pipe. is the
same as bravery in a man. modesty
in woman. A pipe has to be sweet
TO be worth a darn
Bill Sykes, who is never seen in
public without his pipe. believes that
the ultimate is attained by allowing
the ashes to cool in the instrument
after smoking
Instead of knocking his pipe out. as
common mortals do, on his heel. Bill
permits the residue. including the
goo. to remain in the pipe until cold.
This is a leisurely method of pipe
smoking and has much to commend
1t. It prevents the rash pipe smoker
from lighting up again while the pipe
is still red hot
Tom Haddon. however. will not give
this system a leg to stand on, as the
saying is. He is a stanch advocate
of the knock 'em m-outimmediately'
theory. This practice alone. he de-
clares. enables you to get the most
out of a pipe.

Live tobacco is one thing. and
smoked tobacco is another" he con
tinues. when tobacco is lit. it is
fragrant, but when the fire dies, it is
pretty poor stuff.
THE only way to keep the sweet
taste in is to knock your ashes out
at once, the second you finish smok
ing. Let a little fresh air and sun
shine get into your pipe. and it will
be sweeter than chocolate candy"

Haddon to scorn. and pokes his briar

"All the clerks wear yellow gloves.
SO that their hands will not touch the
pipes. They hand them out to you
as if they we're jewels.
"If any one would start to put one
in his mouth. the clerk would send in
general alarm, and the offender
would be cast into the Thames, or
something.
They take pipes seriously in Lon
don. They spend more time baking a
pipe and making 1t fit for man to
smoke than we do amending tho Con
Stitution in this country.
Nov. this High Priest Of Pipe
Smoking says emphatically that the
one and only proper method of smok
ing is as follows:
"One-Get good pipe.
''Two-iet some good tobacco.
''Threc- Stuff it in tight.
"Four--Smoke slowly.
"Five-Allow YOUR pipe to become
cold before YOU knock out the ashes.
"Six-Poke the ashes out gently

pipe smoker.

THIS AND THAT


Getting a cake in a pipe is almost
as hazardous an undertaking as going
to the North Pole; in fact. a great deal
more so than going to California used
to be. if you are willing to listen to
your dyed-in-the tobacco smoker
To listen to the veterans talk, the
timid soul might think that the
cake in a pipe is a thing of pray.
ers, tears and cuss words.
Well, maybe it is.
The plain truth of the matter, how.
ever, is that if one is persistent the
cake will come Of it's own free will.
in due time. without any fretting.
Wait patiently on the cake" there
fore. and II will give you your heart S
desire in the way Of a cool, "sweet"
smoke.
Many smokers have a superstition
that one must smoke the same to-
bacco continuously to get a cake"
of the right consistency. with the
proper power Of inducing sweet
ness"
What would some of the oldtimers
say of this neat theory?
Take the old fellow who goes down
in the street car every morning. A
block from the can he takes his last
puff, having smoked about half of his
pipeful.
Thus his pipe goes out. a negative
sort of action in which pipes are
peculiarly Efficient
SO when he mounts his public
vehicle. he fully complies with the
rules and regulations that lighted
cigars, cigarettes and pipes are for
hidden on this car"
He keeps his faithful briar between
his lips, however.
It is an old fashioned affair. 1t

and the latter is of an antique
model Instead of neatly swelling
from the mouthpiece to the bowl,
this specimen of ancient craft dips
to half. then swells out again.
Every time the gentleman puffs
out. through his unlit pipe. the ladies
sniff terribly. When he finally gets
off. at his corner. they are glad
and so is he. He steps upon the
curb. and from then on his actions
are automatic
He reaches for box of matches,
strikes one with d sweep. brings up
his left hand to shield the flame
from the breeze, takes exactly six
inward puffs. drops his match in the
gutter. marches away, putting con-
tentedly. Even the ladies, who hate
smelly old pipes must envy him.
When it comes to tobaccos. the av-
erage pipe smoker, If he be of any
standing in time, has few supersti
tions. TIe smokes anything that will
go into his pipe and let's it so at that.
Only the faStidiouS newcomers. whose
taste has not been blunted by the
narcotic. insist on the perfect blend.
Over in London however. the pipe
smokers paradise. they do things
right. In the shop previously men
toned they sell tobaccos as one finds

fashionable grocery stores in this
country.
