Koh-i-noor Diamond Must Past to die Next Queen. , What will be the destiny of tljb; great 2,000 carat diamond which wak recently found in a Brazilian mine? It is valued at about f Iflth*H.H», and is the second largest diamond ever brought to light. Perhaps the fate of the largest stone of all will serve as a dew. lids was the Culliuan diamond, which was picked up above ground by an overseer of the Premier iulu» in 1905. The -Cullinan weighed 3,025 earaTS* and was divided Into nine great jewels and a number of small brilliants. The largest of the nine, which is larger than any other .polished diamond. Is the famous Star of Africa, now in the Scepter of the king of England. The second largest is in the crown.. * It is practically certain that the Brnfclllau diamond wiy be divided In th£ same way, bnt whethec It will find Its way into a royal regalia is" a not her matter. ' .. fcize, of , course, doesn't count for cm rything In the case of a jewel. Association has a great deal to do with value. Thus, the Koh-l-noor, though It ifc smaller than a number of other "> diamonds, is probably the ujostfamous of them all. It was presented to Queen Victoria In 4850, following the annexation of, the Punjab, but before that it had had a long and romantic history. ; Many legends cluster round this stone. Because of one of them It Is not part of the regalia^ but a personal ornament which descends fioin queen to queen. According to- this legend, should the Koh-i-noor ever be worn by a British king, India will be lost to the empire. For this reason Queen Victoria arranged that the gem should l>e handed down from the consort of each reigning monarch to the next queen.---Answers Magazine.

There are some chambers In which It seems almost Impossible to arrange the furniture because of the interference of windows. Since It is through these openings that sun and light and air with their purifying elements can get into the inclosed walled area, the homemaker who finds this difficulty should realize that it Is an error In the right direction. It is far better to have too mauy windows in a room than too few. and if the room is studied carefully. It will respond to the treatment which results. Now that the summer Is spent, and draughts of air are undesirable across beds, seek to find some position for the bed which will give the sleeper protection when windows are open. To sleep in a room without windows open Is to hamper good health, the air should fill the room without blowlog on the sleeper. An excellent position for the dressing table, whether it,. Is necessary or whether It !s by preference, is before a window, The dresser should be low •o that the standard does not come too hfch Above the sill.

Cover the top with wadding first, then with glazed chintz and net. Gather the portion tacked to top edge for side and front ruffles. The dresser will be inexpensive and In the vogue. Of course silk can be used for the textile and it can be left without net over It. Or It can have mercerized sateen' or percale under the net as best suits the purse. A triple mirror, stood on the top IS sufficient, but one with side supports from an old bureau can be screwed to the top, or at the back of the table. If the supports are good looking, they require no decorative treatment. If not they can be covered to match the dresser. I have seen old, low bureaus, positioned before windows, and prove successful features In the room decoration. In one Instance the bureau was drawn out from the window enough for easy access to It to be permitted so that the sash could be raised or lowered readily to air the room, which was small and bad but the one lfrge window. 1*11, Syndicate.--wsu Ssrvlct* M»miI>IS- P--tw rwenty-nloe mountain peaks la Virila ate over 4.000 feet In elevation.
