orientals love of luxury splen dor of attire and personal adornment acts as a strong incentive to the eastern jeweler In the production of those ex quisitely carved and multicolored crea tions over which the modern world raves and marvels Nor are such deco rations mere ornaments without other use or meaning The oriental jeweler seated upon the floor of his little shop inhaling the fra grant odors of his pipe and coffee con ceives his design and jealously envel ops It with mysticism adding to it the quaint charm of symbol and supersti Ernest Neumanns from Friday to Sun- J perlority and rank of the -wearer and day and had the pleasure of coming to town Sunday evening in the rain Miss Clara Wollenburg of DeWitt tion The bracelet the earrings the necklace the clasp the buckle and the button grow step by step into a special ornament according to the rank means tastes and wants of the wearer an evidence of class and dignity Bracelets are by orientals worn in pairs Each hand is provided with one as otherwise jealousy will spring up between the manual members and evil deeds will follow Earrings are popu lar among both sexes in certain parts of the orient The ears are pierced at birth The perforations are made un necessarily large so as not to permit a residue of gossip Then ornaments are offered the ears as consolation Neck laces are worn most conspicuously to avert the evil eye and to denote dig nity and distinction Festoon neck laces seem to have been In vogue from time immemorial and not infrequently do they adorn the whole chest of the wearer In India the men often bor row their wives necklaces to decorate themselves with Masculine vanity of certain sects of the Persians far ex ceeds that of women and aside from wearing earrings and necklaces they almost monopolize the tiny seed pearls by stringing them in their beards each hair being literally covered with a lus trous pearl Beads are among the earliest forms of ornaments and are considered po tent charms for felicity as these are often cut and sold by priests or sheiks who maintain themselves solely by this means The pear shaped drop so much in vogue in Europe and America Is of decidedlv oriental origin and has at tached to it a quaint myth The Kaa ba stone in Mecca has this peculiar shape and according to the theory of the Mohammedans this stone was the actual guardian angel who was sent to watch over Adam In Eden and was present at his fall As a punishment for not having more vigilantly exe cuted his trust the angel was changed Into a stone and hurled from paradise Most Mohammedans wear pearl shaped pendants made of wood or some pre cious stone as a reminder of Allahs wrath and these are held among them in the same esteem as is the cross among the Christians Armlets are regarded as caste marks and are worn only by women Anklets have a healing power and so are worn not as ornaments only Little tinkling bells are often attached to these which lend a pleasing sound to an approach ing step and serve to denote the thus in passing render due homage An Arabian poet describes these as the awakeners of dormant senses Rings are worn in great profusion Neb left on 2

Beginning of Europes Great Maritime Agency Two centuries ago a man who had a cargo to send to the Mediterranean contrived to get rid of some of the risk by inducing a friend to take an Interest with him It was necessary to write out a statement of contract to which the guarantors subscribed This was the first underwriting These two men happened to be frequenters of Lloyds coffee house in London which was a favorite place for the merchants of the town to gather to discuss business or to gossip Others Immediately saw the advan tage of the scheme which their col leagues had devised and on the next voyage the risk was parceled out among a larger number of the patrons of the coffee house Out of this small beginning has grown the great European maritime agency still bearing the name of the humble coffee house proprietor and which not only writes risks on vessels but rates them and publishes their ar rivals at every port the world over no matter how small or how remotely sit uated From The Annals of the American Academy Hereditary Mrs Magulre Tis Mary Ann OReil ly thots th folne pianny player intoire ly Mrs Clancy Shure an no won dher Isnt her Uncle Barney a pianny mover Judge The reason said Uncle Thoma3 that some stupid men get along bet ter than some smart ones Is that they dont keep talkin all the time and inakln enemies However they Invariably have ex quisitely carved or openwork shanks Even the stones have their symbols and are worn accordingly In the orient no prejudice exists against opals Signet rings were of great importance among the earlier orientals and even to the present day letters are rarely otherwise signed by those who send them Thus the authenticity of all orders and communications even merchants bills depends wholly tipon an Impression of a signet ring The occupation of the seal cutter Is regard ed as one of great trust and danger Such a person is obliged to keep a reg ister of every ring seal he makes and if one be lost or stolen from the party for whom It was cut his life would answer for making another just like it The loss of a signet ring is regarded as a disastrous calamity and the alarm which an oriental exhibits at the loss of the signet can only be understood by a reference to these circumstances as the seal cutter is always obliged to alter the real date at which the seal was cut The only resource of a per son who has lost his seal is to have another made with new date and to write to his correspondents to inform them that all accounts contracts and communications to which his former signet is affixed are null from the day on which it was lost Jewelers Circular-Weekly Obviating the Rules Mrs Flat I always insist that my husband wear evening dress when he dines at home Miss Sharp Yes he told me that was the
