Hereafter the retail jewellers of the higher cinas, who » fave constituted no such colony, will be lined up near @ach other on Fifth avenue.

Is the money po spent well invested? The old belief in the marketable ~, value of diemonds still obtains, weakened a little by re- ) ports of new South African diamond mines, but strength- and confirmed by the second thought that the Lon- ¥ @on Diamond Trust, most tyrannical of all monopolies, ¥ wil never permit diamonds to be cheap. In gold jewelry, also, there is an Intrinsic value be- d that of most commodities of the kind classed as Jexuries, This is particularly true of manufactured gold ‘products of native workmanship. The margin of profit oe reen manufacturer and retailer is not large. There ‘ds no duty, as with similar articles of foreign make; there are none of the numerous incidental charges of broker and commissioner for which tn the end the private buyer must pay. As a general thing the customer gets moro of real Walue for his money in the domestic article and fre- ‘Quently something of superior artistic quality, In this cular industry tho American designer and manu- urer come near leading the world. MORALS ON THE HIGH SEAS. Why is the docking of an ocean liner so frequently Mlowed by reports of some scandalous performance on rd ship while on the high seas? It does not need this “atest case of a Kaiser Wilhelm II. passenger calling | Over the rail for police to arrest a gambler to point the tinency of the query, Within a year the reports of Mid-ocean gambling have been both numerous and mnsavory. Do those who go down to the sca tn ships leave their Morals behind them?
