Valuable Gems Hidden in Odd Spots at Times There is no necessity for any secrecy now if the builders at present tearing down and rearranging the interior of a house in a well known and aristocratic quarter in London come on a wealth of jewels and jewelry. They who were intimately concerned in the piquant affair have long ago gone to dust. Their descendants, however, are keeping a close eye on developments. Some time ago this mansion was bought by a war profiteer, after PHOTOGRAPHS MADE OF MINUTE OBJECTS The art of photomicrography has made a great advance through the application of the electric are light. Herefore it has been difficult to make good photographs of minute objects, magnified more than 1,000 diameters, because the oxyhydrogen light employed to illuminate the objects was not sufficiently uniform in intensity. With the electric are light this difficulty has been largely overcome, and fine photographs have been made of objects magnified 5,000 diameters. Microscopy is far ahead of astronomy in the magnifying powers it can employ. It is seldom that a power of so much as 1,000 diameters can be usefully applied with a telescope, and in photographing the heavenly bodies comparatively slight magnification can be used. A photograph of the moon with a magnifying power of 5,000 diameters would bze a wonder indeed. Valencia Hotel Guests C. E. Price, San Diego; Charles K. Moore, Los Angeles; I. A.

EVOLUTION Having been the town house of a landed family for many generations. Somewhere within the walls of a room which was the boudoir of one of its chatelaines lie not only a small fortune in precious stones and goldsmith's work but some heirlooms of a ducal family. The Chitelaine was very lovely, but by no means straight-laced. One afternoon, when visiting a friend, she died suddenly. Her husband had her boudoir shut up and refused to have any search made for the jewels, which it then became known she had been receiving from her ducal lover, who was now much embarrassed by reason of certain of them being heirlooms in his family. Not for three generations, and on a distant branch of the aggrieved husband's family succeeding to the property, was the boudoir roooped, and the search was then instituted nothing resulted. The fair lady's cache remained undiscovered. If and when the heirlooms come to light again it is certain the lawyers will profit by the wrangling for possession of them. Jewels Found in Bedpost Jewels sometimes are found secreted in odd places. Not long ago a surprising and gratifying discovery was made, much to the joy of the head of a famous county family in the Midlands in England. Impoverished like many others in these hard times after the war, he had arranged for the sale of much of the property which has been in his family for many generations, and the hall itself and fine antique furniture were being catalogued. A very massive Jacobean bedstead in one of the bed chambers rather perplexed the auctioneer's agent as to the possibilities of removing it, and with the permission of the squire, who was standing by, he began to tap and examine it. At the third of fourth tap on one of the posts at the foot of the great bed a part of the finely carved post flew open. It revealed to their astonished eyes a miniature semi-circular cupboard, in which lay two ropes of gems. Searching the other bedpost Valencia Hotel Guests C. E. Price, San Diego; Charles K.

Faultfinders are never out of a job. At the third of fourth tap on one of the posts at the foot of the great bed a part of the finely carved post flew open. It revealed to their astonished eyes a miniature semi-circular cupboard, in which lay two ropes of gems. Searching the other bedpost brought to light another tiny cupboard, containing rings and uncut stones. The value of these two caches was such that the sale was canceled. They had been, it was subsequently discovered, the property of one of the family. Returning as a nabob from Indian, late in the eighteenth century, he had succeeded to the estate, only to die a few months later af an apoplectic shock.

FIRS Wiltshire found more than he expected. Happening by the merest chance on a secret drawer he discovered a collection of pearls and antique gems worth some $2500. It was surmised they had been hidden there during the Jacobite scare in 1744-45, the texture and fabrics of the wraps leading to this conclusion. Even at this day many believe that a hiding place of their own devising for their jewelry is more secure than a guaranteed safe or banker's strong room. The majority of society women trust to themselves to protect their tiaras or ropes of pearls. One well known society dame, with a fondness for jewels in public, keeps much of her magnificent collection in the marble wall of her bedroom, which is noted for its beautiful mosaic work. As an additional security against burglars the bathroom fills with scalding steam from five independent inlets on the door or window being tampered with.

Bells Will Peal Tidings of Peace and Good Will “There is neither speech nor language, but their voices are heard among men.” This is an inscription engraved upon one of the bells in a tower in Antwerp, Belgium, in 1658, but, long before this date, voices of bells had told to humanity their tales of gladness or sadness of threatened danger or safety achieved, and always the world understood and responded to mood or emergency as the case might have been. For centuries church bells have told the ever-new, old story of the Christ Child. For weeks before the sacred day arrives a wild rush of preparations leaves little time for reflection. In these busy hours clanging bells of impatient street cars spur the pedestrian to heroic efforts and startle the pre-occupied shopper out of some absorbing reverie. This is the time when tatigue and happiness go hand in hand, and many exhausted mother, nodding on her homeward ride, hears the ripple of baby laughter and the patter of hurrying feet above the raucous noises attending her trip. Father, with his arms piled high, looks over the crowd with a far-away expression, seeing only the one paramount incident of the Christmas revelation and starry eyes that will turn toward him with a deeper lovelight written in their shining depths. It is this marvelous hour toward which the whole world moves with one concerted motive, and in its hallowed joy revives the spirit that is the foundation of a nation’s greatness. When the bells of Christmas morn peal their tidings of “Peace and Good Will” it will be to a world waiting to receive the message; a world that has been hurried and excited and interested, but which has all unconsciously been acquiring a spirit en rapport with the burden of their chiming. All the stress of living and striving, all the hurts and the sorrows are softened by the benediction of the bells. Deeper reverence for life and a fuller appreciation of the love that surrounds us is roused by their Yule-tide music. They call to all that is best and loveliest and we answer by an outpouring of Christmas spirit, a keener sense of human brotherhood and a closer knitting of family ties. While they have “neather speech nor language,” they tell a marvelous story, a story that we understand, and we live better for that understanding—Detroit News. Spirit of Poetry in Laurel Used to Beautify Tree When we weave garlands of Christmas greenery, each branch of foliage typifies some ancient virtue, suggests a hoary superstition and carries a meaning far beyond that with which a decorator regards it. According to the ancients the laurel communicates the spirit of poetry. To gain poetic inspiration a man should sleep with a sprig of laurel under his pillow. Bay has several meanings. It has always been associated with victory, while it is supposed to protect the wearer from lightning. The withering and shriveling of its leaves was said to foretell death, which may account FIRST METAL USED IN ANCIENT EGYPT In discussing the question of the metals used by the great nations of antiquity, a distinguished scientist recently pointed out that gold was probably the first metal known to man, because it is generally found native. The oldest metallic objects to which we can assign a probable date were found in a royal tomb at Nagada in Egypt, supposed to have been that of the King Menes. In one of the chambers were some bits of gold and a bead, a button and a fine wire of nearly pure copper. If the tomb has been properly identified, these objects are at least 6,000 years old. Nearly all the ancient gold that has been examined contains enough silver to give it a light color. It was gathered by the ancients in the bed of the Pactolus and other streams of Asia Minor.

The withering and shriveling of its leaves was said to foretell death, which may account for the superstition that evergreens should not remain in the house after Twelfth night.
