S. S. BERENGARIA, october g.
Miss Ishbel Macdonald, healthy and
engaging 26-year-old daughter of
Britain'S Scottish premier. uses no
makeup. She does not even powder
her nose.
In a conversation with correspondents
today she commented she never used
cosmetics. preferring the natural COM
plexion given her by years in the Scotch
Highlands.
"Make-up?" she answered a question,

do So"
She told the correspondents she
wished she could see base ball game
while in America, but she is not sure
1t will be arranged. She said she often
had wondered about the game, and
wished she could see it played-that
is, played as it should be played.
Base ball led to a discussion of other
things typically American. I'm sure"
she said. I'll find myself at home in
America. Indeed, I'm already so much
at home I'm lapsing into the Ameri-
can language"

SHAFTS JEWELRY WORTH
NEARLY $17O,0OO,000
Complete Record Made of Large
Number of Gems in Persian
Rulers Treasury.

time in history complete record mas
been made of the enormous number OF
valuable gems collected in the treasury
of the Shah of Persia. Hitherto no at
tempt at valuation had been made, but
Ria Khan ordered a committee OF
French and Dutch jewelers. to undertake
the task.
The committee has valued the whole
state jewelry at over f34,000,000, with
the exception of the famous diamond
"Darya- i-Noor," or the Sea of Light
which according to the experts is beyond
estimation. The jewels consist in most
part of emeralds, diamonds rubies and
pearls. Their weights have been taken
and some idea of the Persian Shah's
treasures can be had from the fact that
there are 10 pounds of the finest pearls,
IL pounds of rubies and Is pounds of
emeralds. The largest emerald is val
ued at over $4,000.
The most valuable of all the treasures
is the famous Peacock Throne of the
Mogul Emperors of Delhi. removed in
tact from the throne room of the De-
Wan-i-KhaS of Delhi to the Shah's pal
ace in Teheran. 1t is valued now at
over E1O.O0C 900.
The famous string OF pearls worn by
the Shah at the Durbars held in the
palace is valued at over ESQ, 900. while

stands almost unrivaled among the cost
ly jewels of the world.
