TEN PAGES Blood of Murdered Girl Weighed to Test Kinship In San Francisco some months ago a poor Italian baby that had come into the world under a cloud was restored to its birthright and good name when physicians drew a few drops of its blood and examined it under a spectrum with blood taken from the veins of a man who denied he was its father. Science, that mighty force of truth, had learned that the rhythm of a child's blood as it courses through its tiny body is in harmony with the rhythm of the flow in the body of its father. In the case of the Italian baby science established its paternity. But a more amazing experiment was undertaken in New York City in Bellevue hospital morgue in an effort to establish the identity and kinship of the broken girl whose frightfully utilized body was dragged from a stale Long Island pond. Nameless, this wretched torso had lain for the last ten days, not through any lack of persons ready to claim it—for eight have—but because of the skepticism of criminologists. Astounding as was science's discovery in the problem of the Italian baby's parentage more so is the drawing of the dead blood, frozen in the veins of the pond victim. And yet this was done, and now the literal "life dust" of the slain girl lies in a little dot on a los-shaped bit of glass beside two other dots of blood drawn from the arms of two women who claim her as a sister. There is hardly a parallel in theItalian was drawn "living." There is none in the coagulated substance taken rom the pond victim's torso. Yet science has its answer to skeptics in this case, too. Every drop of blood contains millions of corpuscles and every single corpuscle has a weight. In kinship, or blood relationship, there is a static condition of corpuscle weight and it is on this weight statistic that science is depending in its efforts to establish the murdered victim's identity. If the corpuscle weight of the dried blood and that of the blood of the two women—Mrs. Anna Walker and Mrs. Joseph Mendeba—is approximately the same then the two women will be permitted to take the mutilated body o their sister·rom the morgue for decent burial. If the weights are at variance Mrs. Dorothy Bailey, who has claimed the body as that of her daughter, Dolly Bailey Higgins, will also be asked to submit to the blood test. Failure in either case will then result in the malmed body being buried in the potter's field. Townley Begins 90-Day Jail Term In Minnesota JACKSON, Minn., Nov. 3.—A. C.

But since the discovery of America the principal source of fine emeralds has been at Muzo, near Bogota, in the Republic of Colombia, where a mine has been worked for the last three centuries. Emeralds do not rank next to the diamond in ahrundness, that place of honor being taken by sapphires. They may dispute the third place with topaz, but they are more certainly ranked fourth, coming between quartz and topaz. It is usual to reckon the hardness of minerals on a scale of 10. The diamond stands at the top, with 10 points; the sapphire is credited with 9 points, the topaz with 8, the emerald with 7, 12 to 8, and quartz with 7. The characteristic color of emeralds is brilliant, vivid green. The shades vary somewhat, but only an expert can select among them. The emerald is a variety of the mineral called zeryl, whose transparent specimens are also valued as gems. It is silicate of aluminum combined with the rare element gluconium beryllum. Where it Gets Color The colors of beryls are green, blue, yellow, white and reddish. The peculiar rich green of the emerald is due to the presence of a small amount of oxide of chromium. Emeralds, on account of the rarity of the best specimens, are often sold at prices as high as those of diamonds of equal or even greater size. Emeralds, on account of the rarity of the best specimens, are often sold at prices as high as those of diamonds of equal or even greater size. There is a bluish-green variety of the beryl known as aquamarine, a gem of much less value than the emerald, which is found in many places, including Maine, New Hampshire. beryl, have no value as gems. Other semi-transparent crystals of beryl attain several pounds in weight. It is an interesting fact that all the most precious stones, except the diamond, are compounds of the common element aluminum. The diamond stands by itself in not being a compound, but a pure element (carbon) in the form of a transparent crystal. The hardest of all known things, it is also the most brilliant, depending for its beauty not on accidental colors derived from extraneous sources and chemical blendings, but solely on its own marvelous power of splitting up and dispersing the light waves, and displaying their gorgeous spectral colors. It is a natural spectroscope. Impurities Make Color The great aluminum gems, on the other hand, owe their beauty mainly to inherent colors so that each of them is monochromatic. The curious fact just referred to, that, except the diamond, all the finest jewel stones are based on aluminum, comes out clearly in the following list: Diamond—Pure crystallized carbon. Sapphire and Ruby—Oxide of aluminum, colored by traces of metallic oxides. Emeralds and Beryls—Silicate of aluminum and glucinum. Chrysoberyl—Compound of aluminum and glucinum. Topaz—Complicated silicate of aluminum. Garnet—Silicate of aluminum. Turquoise—Phosphate of aluminum. All of these gems, with the single exception named, owe their colors to impurities, and ent one of them is an unmixed element except the diamond. Yet the splendor of the single color exhibited by a fine emerald, sapphire, topaz or ruby is often so effective that the market price of any of these stones may, in particular cases, exceed that of diamonds.

You’re tired of land-lords and high rent. Maybe you’ve even got “a set of plans” tucked away in the pigeon hole of your desk. But you’re going to wait a while. “Prices are too high now,” you say. Yes, sir—you’re going to wait until you can buy for less. Listen, man! Can’t you hear a thousand steel riveters beating Prosperity’s tattoo? Can’t you hear the roar of a hundred steam shovels—digging, digging? Look at that sky line yonder—great steel girders reaching upward into the blue. Listen and look—then think! Ask yourself the why of all this. Big business is building—not waiting. It can’t afford to wait. Do you think there is much “guess work” in all this? These financiers—these builders—wouldn’t they wait if they thought it would pay them to wait? They’re building—building as fast as modern machinery and human hands can build. “Own your own Home.” PORTERS, WAITERS SAY WOMEN ARE NOT SO LIBERAL Are women mean?

That is, are they less generous with their tips to porters and waiters, when they travel or eat away from home? This question was brought to the fore in a court case not long ago, when the porter of a Pullman car was asked as to his earnings. He said that they varied; that if his car was well filled with men he could count on about three times the amount of tips he would receive if the majority of the passengers were women. A waiter, questioned in regard to tips, said that the average woman undertips, while the exceptional one overtips. He said very few of them were able to strike a happy mean in tipping. Incidentally, he remarked that about fifteen per cent was the tip, expected for lunch or dinner, in a high class restaurant, and anything under that savored of closeness, while if the amount was greatly over "HERE WE ARE" With "Anaheim's" newest Sub-division, known as the Gross Sub-Division "HERE WE ARE" With "Anaheim's" newest Sub-division, known as the Gross Sub-Division Situated in what will be Anaheim's finest residential district away from noise and the turmoil of the crowded business section.
