I know we Ire booked to go out somewhere tonight. And besides, you won't know what your orders are until you've been to your offke, will you?" "When am I going to see you again?" he demanded, when he had found a station that suited her. "Soon, I hope? What thmt.this evening?" As they drew never to town, she asked that she might be dropped at _one of the underground stations from which she could make her way to the house where she was temporarily stay- ing with friends. "That's true," he admitted. "But they'll have to double-padlock their secrets if they want to keep them from the press nowadays." "Wonder why they don't say right out whether it's true or not," said Glynn, driving on again. She laugh- ed. "The usual secrecy of the Orient- al mind," she answered. "You know them better than I do, but even I know what a passion they all have for being mysterious and telling nothing." [ "There's nothing much there that we didn't know before," said Norah Seaman when they had read this through. "Except the bit about the possibility of the Prince fUing out." It is believed that only the presence of the Prince in his own capital could disprove these rumors, and it had been stated that this need wns felt tp be so urgent that plans were being made for the Prince to go by air to india. No eontirmation nor denial of these plans had been offered however, by the Prince's staff in London. They bought a paper and pulled in to the curb to a halt while they read the scanty paragraph it gave to the item. Reports had been cabled from India that there was serious unrest and grave news of religious and racial trouble being fomented in the State of Napalata, that persistent rumors were being circulated that the Prince in London was dangerously or even mortally injured and that the true facts were being withheld from his people in India. 1 "Let's get a paper and see what it says," she put in eagerly. "I'm fright- fully interested." "Well, I suppose they'll just have to postpone the prmrlamation and taking hold," said Glynn easily, f‘or tty him out, if that will get him there in time. Yes, maybe you're right, and that's the special job I'm booked for. Be rather a nice trip, I'd imagine. Sure, to do the thing in style." 1 "Napalata is the neighbor State to where we live," she explained. “So mv turally pm interested and know the story as far " it has been published. The reigning Prince died out there re- cently; the one here is his eldest son and he is supposed to proclaim himself end take possession within so many days, But his accident prevents him from travelling to get there in time; ad there's a rival claimant in Napal- ata who might make trouble." _ “look," she cried suddenly as the car slowed a moment in the traftie Nose by tt newapaper boy carrying a placard with h , .vy lettering on itt 1 “PRINCE FLYING TO INDIA." “I wonder if that is your special job?" she said.

Gypsum is a naturally occurring sul. phate of lime and is found in vast beds or deposits in several provinces of the Dominion. Crushed or ground, it iorms the well-known land plaster.

For this purpose it can not take the place ot quicklime, slated lime, marl, or ground limestone. which, as is well known, are essentially alkaline in character.

The manufacturers for their part are carrying on a "Buy Now" cam- paign, putting big advertisements in the newspapers over here, something which was never undertaken before, pointing out that diamonds these days can be bought at minimum prices, the "lowest prices in the history ot the modern diamond industry," and ex. plaining the investment angle. ' l This resulted in a distinct revival ‘ot the diamond industry. Several thousand diamond workers were put back on the job here, and it looks as though this number is going to be M. creased in the near future, although the goods which are most in demand now require tt lot ot labor; because ot government support the real wages which the manufacturer has to figure in the cost price or the product are lower than at any time during the his. tory ot Holland's diamond industry. The Dutch Government then came to the rescue of Holland's diamond in. dustry. it made an arrangement with the employers which provides tor a special allowance on the wages paid tor the manufacturing ot email stones, thus enabling the Dutch industry to tight foreign competition and at the same time maintain the high quality ot its product, which is rightly world. famous. Because or various circumstances prices of small stones are much lower than before, and the wage factor is playing a big role in the total price of the tim'shed product. Wages ot dia. mom] workers, which used to be rath. er high, had to be reduced in order to meet foreign competition. a tar smaller extent than before. This symptom was generally nccepted by the diamond trade here as proof of the contidenee which the ptblic has in the stability ot the value ot diamonds. Diamonds are found principally in South Atrlea, although they occur also in other parts of Africa and in South America. About 90 per cent. of the production is controlled by the Dia- mond Corporation, Ltd., ot London. This company has therefore power to maintain Prices. With ttr decline in the world demand production was re- duced, and as a matter of tact most diamond mines were closed long ago. 1 The direct consequenC‘ ot this situa- tion in the diamond business has been I general demand tor smaller stones; but at ttu same time the demand for expensive stones went on. although to Ing fewer and fewer buyers, while the people who are sun buying have, of course, smaller was available tor the purchasing ot precious stones.
