Tho fastidious v.orjr.n fcnov. that jewels fulapted for I:iytirr.o vrnr are entirely different from "tho" 5uitabl for eve-

fcicg use, anl pri lcs herself upon tho proper selection of her jewelrv. With attention iJr.iwn by the var that has enveloped the -whole heart of Europe toward our rource, American jewelers are learning that tho United States offers its quota of materials as well a precious metal. At present, when everything American is sought after, native stones and American made jewelry, and American perns outshino jail ethers In their deserved popularity. Tho .-.matrice, a stcne. found in tho (ULiltni States, was used to enrich a jrecklaco of dull dark pray tulver, and jwhen displayed called tor many words jof admiration. A ?ton of glorious I bin, called the benitoitJ, comes from California and is gaining rapidly in favor. Onyx is as desirab as ever, but a new treatment is given the stone. In i dome instances it is colored with soft

deen. A bow-knot of crvstal had diag

onal strips of green onyx outlined with

diamonds. The fad for crvstal ha.s found an ex

ponent in a 4-inch velvet sautoir, tipped

with a crystal pendant which had plat

inum leaves sparkling with diamonds.

Velvet collarettes with gold slides, or

elides of gold lattice with pearls are worn with quaint wristlets to match, though black always gives a touch of : distinction to the gown, tho ribbon can

! be easily changed to harmonize with

! the color of the dress. ' American reproduction of silver fila

trree sets are marvels of rare beautv.

Bracelets, earring, brooches and necklaces set with Femi-precious stonej in

( liurope-an peasant designs, need only to

! be seen to bo appreciated.

Among the newest offerings are pics

t paved entirelv with little peed pearls

iA brooch in tho shape of a tulip was

; covered with seed pearls, which looked like so many dew drops. Just for good lack was another in shamrock riesifn with the ediro outlined with

- r small emerald.

A sterling silver friendship circle has

character bestowed upon it by its cnam

el anr. jewel treatment. Tho enamel

mar be had m any color desired set with Ftor.es to hitch. Cam "os always have a catchy quaintnc3 about them and thoso set with pearls are much in evidence. An unusual flower holder is among the newest of new ideas. A strip of flexiblo links is adjusted to a gold bar with a pin a-, the back. This contrivance hold3 firmly jiift one blossom or serves to hold a large corsage bouquet.

Exrmisitelv daintv ad old-timer is

a little gold ring with imall chain and clasp attached to hold a handkerchief while dancing.

Bracelets in many forms are worn.

The flexible ones show many new de

signs ia jewel settings. For evening

wear with sleeveless gowns, the bracelet is worn above the elbow. Among the lovely old things revived arc the gold

braided bracelets. Some are plain with

a buckle, while others are interspersed with sms.

Wrist watch bracelets aro in as mica

demand as ever. There is a convertible watch which can be worn oa a sautoir as a wrist watch, or as a chate-

laino watch.

Hat pins and belt pins set with stones

to match the hat are worthy accom

paniments of tho new spring chapeaux. Bags of silk, leather, velvet, or combination leather and silk, are shown in a multiplicity of new designs. A vanity bag of colored leather besides holding all the little articles dear to a woman's heart, included among its possessions, a small pair of opera glass es. A horse shoe shaped bag of faille silk lined in old gold ilk rep nad a tortoise shell clasp ani was finished at the bottom with a long tortoise shell ornament. Fullness is accentuated in bags as well as in skirts. A Btriped silk bag had the fullness held in around the top by a row of smocking. A large silk acorn dangled from the bottom of the bag, and matched in design the gold clasp. Beaded bags in floral and tapestry effects are a joy to behold. All-over beaded purses with strap attached vie in popularity with the large beaded bag. Beaded bags boast of gold cords run through a draw string at the top and are often fitted with little gold accessories. Old engraved silver tops with heavy silver chain are a feature of many of the handsomest ribbed silk bags. Garlands o! flowers and heavy gold trimming set with jewels, often ornament tho opt ra bags, which are mounted on mirrors framed with old gold braid.

CAPABLAHCA.

ADVISED TO TAKE EGYPT Act Was" Welcomed as an Annoyance to IYancc, Few developments of the war can be fuller of irony than the transformation of Kffypt into a British protectorate as a liy-produet of an AnloFrenoh strui:-le against Germany. Ismark, indeed, denied the statement made by Lord Granville ir. the house of lords in IxsG (and by M. do Blowitz in his m'inoirs) that at lierlin in 178 he had advised Iorl lieaconslield to "take LXvpt". He elaborately explained that he had enly recommended us h) liocotup "leaseholders" of tho sultan. But it is plain enough that Bismark welcomed our control of Eypt as an annoyance to France and a diversion of French thought from Europe. That v:n an older German policy than is peneraly realized. Leibnitz susested the occupation of Esypt to Louis XIV, with a view to turning French policy away from the Rhine. London Chronicle.

This Sounds Like Our Friend Opie But It's True and Won This Soldier Victoria Cross

KDIXnURGII. March George Wilson of Edinburgh tells how he won the coveted Victoria Cross as follows: "The proudest moment in my life was when the kin pinned the Victoria Cross on vny breast and talked to me for a few minutes. - "'You're not a very big man, but you've pot a bi$r heart. Truly, I'm pnyid of my soldiers. These were the words he used, and there were tears in his eyes. The kins also asked me what were my feelings while I was going through the job, and I told him the thing 1 remembered best va when tho German otlicer tried to shoot me with his revolver and I put the bayonet through him. "After the retirement from .Mons the II. Li. 1. came to a village called Verncuil, and wc entrenched there. Not far off a few snipers were potting away. One of our ollicers got up out of the trench and was Just kneeling down and putting tho binoculars to his eyes when a bullet struck him. He rolled over dead. I was a few paces off, and turning to the next man 1 said, 'Poor Powell is over and I'll havo reve se.' Gets Snlpors. ,"We trk all we could to locate the snipers, anu I was lucky to get a good sight of them. Two bullets from my rille did for them, and then we advanced cautiously nearer the enemy. When we were getting nearer I was surprised to see a number of spiked bayonets. I was taken aback for a second, but then I decided, to make a rush for it. "Shouting at the top of my voice. 'Charge men, charge,' I rushed at them. They were taken by surprise and threw down their rilles. Two men In a Middlesex regiment came up and I told them to look after the Germans. There were eight of thorn. "Further along I took up my position In a trench, but when I looked over I was horrified to see men lying about in all sorts of positions. .Some were dead, and others were writhing in agony. I asked the man next me what was wrong, and he said, 'It's a ma-xim, and It's not done with its work yeL' Clianro on Maxim. "I stood up to see for myself. The machine gun of the Germans was not a great distance off, and I said to myself, 'It will kill us all if something doesn't happen to it.' 1 thought I would at least have one shot, and got in position to fire. The otlicer told mc to get down, but 1 was so excited that I ran forward. Besides me there was a man in the Middlesex regiment, and he turned to me and said, 'Jock, will you have a try' to stop the gun ' I said I would, and ho replied, I'll go with you.' "By this time we had got beyond range of the officer's orders, for we had gone without permission. "Then began a Journey that as long as I live will ever remain in my memory. "Tho Germans saw us coming and bullets llew thick arounj us. My pal was struck in several places and dropped. I ran zig zag and dropped on my knees to take a shot at the operators of tho machine gun. .My lirst shot knocked the man sitting on the maxim backwards. Ills place was taken by another German, but he, too, I accounted for. How I escaped being hit myself I cannot explain. There seemed to me a good Providence keeping guard over me. "When four of the Germans wire killed there remained onlj' an olficor beside the gun. Ho had crept behind it and was waiting for mo with his automatic pistol ready. "I rushed lorward, yelling at the top of my voice, when tho pistol began to sp One bullet just passed the side of my head and my ear Singled. Thct was all the damage that German orfker did. I sprang at him in wild fury and drove the bayonet straight Into his body. He collapsed, and to withdraw the steel I had to put my foot on hi face. My clothes were spattered with blood, but I felt much easier in mind, and I put down my ritle and turned to the belt containing the ammunition. Turns Gun on Germans. "There were over TOo rounds left. I shifted the maxim round in the direction of the Germans. There were over a hundred yards off and massed In close formation. I started firing, and to my delight I saw big holes being made in their ranks, for it was impossible to miss them. They fell in bunches, and the heaps kept piling up. "The enemy now saw the deadly effect of their own gun being used against themselves and sent shells in my direction. They few on all sides of me and i.hrew up dirt and splinters, but not once was I struck. T continued working the maxim until the Germans tied in disorder. "There must have been four companies of Germans altogether, and I reckon the maxim accounted for at least half of their number 200 men. "As there was no further use in me remaining where I was I took thr gun and two boxes of ammunition back to to our lines. I hadn't pone very far when I began to feel sicklsh. but once I came near our own lads 1 bucked up and an officer came to meet me. 'There's the d d thing that's been -causing all the damage.' I said

to him, and he replied, 'You have done splendidly.' Gets Comrade. "Then I was told that my comrade was still lying out in the open, and I told those near to me that I would fetch him in. They told me not to risk it, as the snipers were again busy potting. However, I wasn't going to rest until I had made an effort to save him. "I reached my pal all safe and lifted him on my shoulder. When I had gone a few yards a terrible hail of bullets whizzed around us. I felt tho linger of one of rnv hands tingle. A bullet had just grazed it. My poor mate was, however, struck several times, and he did not live long after I carried him into our lines. His dying words to me were, "Thank God, you got that gun.' '
