"Beatrix?" said Barnabas to him
self.
I'm time; ali! and pray who'd be-
lieve it? You ran away from me
but you ran away with me-f1rst!
In time? Did you father believe it,
that virtuous old miser? would any
one. who saw us together, believe
it? No, Beatrix, I tell you all the
world knows you for my"
"Stop!" A moment silence and
then came a soft, gently amused
laugh.
Lord, BeatriX, how handsome
you are!-handSomer than ever, be-
CAD! I'm doubly fortunate to have
found you again. Six years is a long
time, but they've only matured you

somer than ever; upon my life and
soul you are!"
But here came the sudden rush of
flying draperies, the sound of swift,
light footsteps, and Barnabas was
aware of the door behind him being
opened, closed and bolted, and
thereafter, the reprcSsed sound Of a
woman's passionate weeping. There
fore he rose up from the s~ettee, and
glancing W. his high back, be-
held Clemency.
Almost in the same moment she
saw him, and started back to the
wall, glanced from Barnabas to the
open lattice, and covered her face
with her hands. And now not
knowing what to do, BarnabaS
crossed to the window and, being
there, looked out, and thus espied
again the languid gentleman, stroll
ing up the lane, with his beaver hat
cooked at the same jaunty angle,
and swinging him betassled stick
as he went.
"VOU-you heard, then!" said
,Clemency, almost in a whis-

hurriedly, ware that her face was

kept his eyes studiously averted

slender fingers frightened on his
arm. "Oh, tell me-tell me, you be-

Yes" said Barnabas, looking
down into the troubled depths Of
her eyes; yes, I do believe"
The compelling hands dropped
from his arm, and she stood before
him, staring out blindly into the
glory of the morning; and Barnaba'
could not but see how the tear;
glistened under her lashes; also he
noticed how her brown, shapely
hands gripped and wrung each other,

The Will of CONGRESS

When the time to make the final decision on
the site upon which is to be erected the muchneeded
tuberculosis hospital for the District hope that
officials will not overlook paragraph in the last Dis
trict appropriation bill.
That paragraph under the heading District of Co.
1umbia tuberculosis Sanatora,' reads as follows
"FOr the construction of additions the ChLdren's
Unit and the preparation of plans and specifications
for the District of Columbia Tuberculosis SanatOria
at Glenn Dale, Maryland, including to exceed

eighteen years without success.
He sat in his hut one day last
January while his son and a
native wearily worked tn e
claim. Suddenly the native
stopped in amazement. There
in the bucket of gravel he had
been washing was a great stone.
He began cleaning it feverishly
and then, realizing his find,
shouted: Master, master, I
have found it,"
That night Jonker tied the
stone round his wife'S neck and
while she tried to sleep he, two
of his sons and two friends
kept guard with loaded re-
volvers. In the morning they
had the diamond in safekeep-
ing, and in another day he had
sold it to Sir Ernest Open
heimer on behalf of a syndicate
for $315.o0O.
The discovery of diamonds in
South Africa goes back only 81
years. A little boy playing on
the shore of the Orange River
came upon a pretty stone which
he took home. His mother no
ticed the luster, and after the
youngster had tired of the new
found toy and had thrown 1t
into the dirt heap in the yard.
she happened to mention it to
a neighbor. He asked to see
the pebble and, digging it out.
they gave it to him.
That pebble. the first dia-
mond found in South Africa,
was sold for $2,500 to the gov
ernor of Cape Town, and it led
to the diamond rushes and the
diamond mining which have
since yielded close on to a bill
lion dollars worth of this pure
carbon mineral which volcanoes,
ages ago, deposited beneath the
South African plain.
The Jonker find occurred only
three miles from the Premier
mine where, in 1905, the Culli-
nan, greatest of all diamonds,
shone through the blue earth
to dazzle the world.
That stone, weighing more
than a pound, was sold to the
al Government, for
$SOO,O0O for presentation to the
King Edward VII. And before
it had been cut up into nine
stones, the King looked at it
and said: IF I had seen it
in the road, I should have kicked
it aside as q lump Of glass"

AS goes the United States
so goes the business of selling
diamonds, which is why things
have been looking up a bit
lately in the market for the
most brilliant and most CLAM
orous of all minerals.
With times somewhat better,
at least in comparison with the
preceding three years, the
American public is becoming
diamond conscious again. So
the experts say, and their de-
ductions are borne out by the
report of a profit for the IA
nous. De Beers Company OF
South Africa. In the last fiscal
year De Beers made three-quar-
ters of a million dollars against
a deficit of a quarter Of a
million in 1882.
Kimberley and De Beers are
two names synonymous with
diamonds. What Dawson City
was to the Klondike. so was
Kimberley to the diamond
rush, and what the Hudson's
Bay Company is to furs, the
De Beers Company is to dia-
monds. But Kimberley today
is a stagnant little city, and
the great hole in its center,
from which comes the jewels.
is quiet and idle. De Beers
is not working its great mine,
mile in circumference and
having a depth of some $500
feet.
It is the company'S policy to
control the output so as to keep
up prices. And with a hand
some supply on hand, De Beers
will wait until the demand again
makes it necessary to send down
an army of natives, at the wage
of $1.5O a day into the blue pit.
While the South African
fields yield about SO per cent of
the worlds diamond output, the
stone has been found all over
the world, even in the United
States, and, as generally agreed,
is of volcanic origin.
The diamonds of antiquity
came from India, the largest of
these being the Great Mogul,
taken from the fabulous mines
of Golconda and first described
by Tavernier, a French traveller,
who saw it in India in 1865.
This stone weighed 787 carats.
It's whereabouts is unknown, but
it Is believed that the Great
Mogul was cut up and that part
Of it is the famous Kohinoor.
This gem, seized from an In"
dian prince during the British
invasion of the Punjab, was pre-
sented to Queen Victoria by the
East India Company to become

The Washington times., 1934-07-31

There was so much to do
this summer before leaving the
city that didn't get around to
terrifying that taXicab driver.
I'll do it next fall when I'm
rested and feel fresh. The fall
is the only time to frighten a
taxi driver. The job takes a bit
of doing. All the mental facul
ties must be at their keenest,
and the frightener must be in
tip-top physical condition, in
case Of emergency. He must
have a sharp wit, the determin.
alton of bulldog. a faculty for
glowering effectively, and an
ability to outshout any taxi
driver he may encounter.
Since 1919 I have been sug-
costing to taxi men: Driver,
don't go so fast, I'm not in any
hurry" or Driver, get out from
beneath this L. I'm going
nuts" Ordinarily they either
reply "Okay" and do as they
please, or they do as they please
without replying "Okay."
Don't start off by taking any
body your size. At first it
might be we'll not to take any
body at all, directly. I devoted
my first week of intensive
training wholly to telephone
browbeating. I telephoned the
