"oh no." cried Mrs. Petherton "ReaIly, /
couldn't think of it. DR.. Gooche is very fond
Of those pictures. He always says that if he
can't have his loved ones about him the next
best thing Is to have their pictures"
well, there's something in that" admitted
Mr. Milfret. but after all, they aren't my
loved ones"
"But they make the place look so honey
don't you think?" Mrs. petherton argued.
"They make it look as if it had really been
lived in. Now. you take that picture of Aunt
Minerva Gooche-"
IAN right" said Mr.. Milfret eagerly.

ct can understand that" said Mrs Milfret
"Lets make it three timeS-just for luck"
But all the family portraits remained where
they were. Furthermore, Mrs. Petherton used
to drop in frequently to make sure of it.
Almost every afternoon when MIR. Milfret had
stretched out in the hammock with his shoes
on and his flannel shirt unbuttoned at the
neck, there would be a gentle tapping at the
screen door. Mrs. Milfret would scurry into
her kimono, whisk wet bathing suits out of
sight, remove snarl of fishing tackle from The
chaiSe Tongue and smile the brave smile Of the
involuntary hostess. ......
Don't get up" Mrs. Petherton would say
cheerily, when Mr.. Milfret made an unsuc-
cessful effort to hoist himself out of the ham
mock and button his shirt at the same time.
"It's only poor little do like to see you
folks relaxing and enjoying yourselves. Mrs.
GoOche, you know, was SO formal-almost too
formal. She used to make the doctor dress
for dinner every evening, even when they were
by themselves"
Sometimes Mrs. Petherton would bring over

she would say apologetically. Just little

THE black diamond is the hardest known
- substance, and is declared to be per cent
harder than the ordinary gem diamond 1t is
found exclusively in the State Of Bahia IN
Brazil. It plays highly important part in the
Industrial development Of this country.
The chief use of industrial diamonds Is in
the manufacture of drill bits for rock drilling
and boring. The diamonds are set in the lower
edge of hollow cylinder Of soft annealed steel.
BY rotation the bit cuts out cylindrical core of
rock. Black diamonds are used chiefly for this
purpose.
The chief use Of bort, another product of
importance to Brazil in the diamond industry.
Is In the manufacture Of tools for truing abra-
Sive wheels and in the manufacture of cutting
tools which are used for turning hard rubber,
ebonite vulcanite, fiber, metals and alloys, mica
and other materials that duh other tools
quickly. Diamond tools are Of special value
for the production of large number Of pieces
= Of exact and uniform sizes. Perforated dta-
monds are used as dies for drawing fne wire
Of accurate and uniform croSs-section.
Diamond saws up TO 10 feet IN diameter are
used widely for saving rock, such as marble or
granite The diamonds are mounted In de-
tachable steel sockets inserted at regular inter-
walls around the rim. Small diamonds are used
extensively as glass cutters Fragments Of bort
are pulverized to form diamond dust which is
used for cutting and polishing precious stones,
Is an abrasive in drilling diamonds to make
diamond dies, and IN saving porcelain and
similar hard materials. t't-
NO abrasive diamonds are produced in the
United States. Import figures for the past sew

Mr.. Milfret did venture to suggest q change
in the decor OF the bed room, however. Its
walls were covered with photographs Of queer
looking people-distant and departed Gooches
and friends and their pet poodles. 1t was like
an old family album enlarged to heroic pro-
portions, except that you couldn't shut it up
and put it out of sight.
After his first night In Tumblewood, Mr..
Adilfret had awakened to find Uncle Abime-
lech Gooche staring severely at him from the
foot Of the bed. Uncle Abimelech resemDled
o minor prophet with whiskers by COrOt. He
seemed to be going down for the third time
In sea Of spinach-and blaming Mr.. Milfret
for it. So the next night Mr.. Milfret had
slept with his head ut the foot Of the bed.
Toward morning he had had an uneasy sensa-
ton Of being watched. And when he had
opened his eyes there was Aunt Minerva Goo
che holding down q lace jabot with her third
chin and glazing ut him as If he were beetle
in her boufllon. Mr.. Milfret had groaned an
turned his face to the wall, only to encounter
o large group photograph Of DR.. Gooches
graduation class-75 earnest young medical
students ranged IN q semicircle and peering
down at him with keen professional interest.
Lying there with those coldly curious eyes fixed
upon him, he had felt like . patient In .
clinic; he had even imagined that he could
smell . faint odor Of ether, but it was only
Mrs. Milfret's mosquito lotion.
IT wonder" he said cautiously to MRS. Pether-
ton that afternoon, eff we might take down
few Of the pictures in the bed roOm-just tenn
porarily. It seems httle-ah- cluttered."

THE United States is well blessed with sand,
considering the extent of the coast line Of
the country, yet the sand used in the produc-
ton Of white glass Is brought from Belgium,
the American sands heretofore tried containing
too high percentages Of impurities. such as iron.
Recently were found on the Pacific Coast de-
pusits Of sand which have been available for
glass manufacture, but only for brown and
amber glass.
Attempts to purify the sand along the Pacific
Coast have so far been commercially unsuccess-
full, as the cost was too great to compete with
the Belgian sand, which is brought over chiefy
as ballast So cheap Is the imported material
that experts estimate so or IS cents ton II
. all that could be spent in treating the sands II
they are TO compete In price with the imported
supplies.
