T KEPT SHOES AS ORNAMENTS American Footgear Considered by Un fortunate Serbian Woman as Alto gether Too Beautiful to Wear. Anything that will keep the feet from the grorfnd Is considered a shoe in Serbia. In the remote rural districts of the country It is snld that many of the people live and die without owning a pair of shoes, in the bitterest weather they travel fhronirh mud and snow without adequate toot covering. They consider themselves fortunate If they can secure old gunny sacks or heavy cloth, which they tie about their feet with twine in winter. The first American-mode shoes that were distributed by the American Red Cross created a tremendous stir among the people of the distant vil lages. One old woman who had never owned a pair before took the shoes that had been given to her toiler home and put them on n shelf above the fire place. She was as pleased as a child to own them, hut nothing could Induca her to wear them. She said that sha Intended to save them for fetes, or perhaps for her burial. They were Hrauch too beautiful to be^worn," sha said. Gem's Romantic History. Truly romantic Is the story of tha Braganza diamond, a stone of 1,860 carats, and "as large as a goose'a eng.* which. f?r more than a century, haa been the proudest possession of thh Portuguese crown. This amazing stone, which Mr. Streeter, the great author ity on gems, has valued at ?58,000.000, was picked up by three Brazilian out laws in the half-dried bed of tha Abaite river, in the province of MInas Geraes. The outlaws took the stone to tha nearest village priest, who obtained access for them to the governor, Into whose possession It was given. The diamond, the largest and finest hlthei> to found, was dispatched to Lisbon, with- the result that the throe outlaws received ,the royal pardon and a rich reward.' while the padre to whosa friendly offices they owed their good fortune was given high preferment In the church. Flower Gardens of Hal land. It was only after the fall of Con stantinople In 1458 that Holland be came such a gay land of flowers as It now Is. Many Dutchmen went to the East during the years of the great crusades, and those of them who loved beautiful things brought seetis with them. When these were planted io .the rich soil of Holland such wondrous flowers appeared as had never before been seen In that country. The people became wildly enthusiastic over the new colors and scents and foliage brought to them from the East, and in Holland there sprang up a great love for gardening. Orchid Hard to Secure. Nearly all the orchids found in Burma ran be grown with a llttie care and attention In private gardens. There is one exception, a sweet-smell ing species called taain by the Bur mese, and which la usually brought to market in Christmas week in Rangoon. Tt only seems to flower In the most malarious and least fret^iented locali ties, and at a time of the year which Is the tigers' mating season, and when they are most dangerous to human be ing*?" It Is In great demand by Bur mese and sells for Its weight In silver. What Mother Wanted. I heard a knock at my door the other morning and on answering it found my neighbor's small son.

The play is the work of SaurUel Shipiuan and Aaron Huffman, both of them among the fore most American playwrights. The story is too familiar to need recounting hero, it concerns the relations of two German A in erica u?, one of them intensely loyal to America J the other tftill harboring a paxsionate affection .for Germany. Both of thorn are human, humorous, delight ful characters. During the play the clash of these two characters, such cloae friends iu everything but the matter of patriotism, furnishes the brighter, clev erest entertainment since the palmy day# of Weber and Fields. Hut "Friendly Enemies" has also a timeliness and vigor of theme, a pathos, ur romantic interent and n humauhess which the Weber aucK Fields shows never attained. The play has become so vital a part of contempo rary dramatic history that no playgoer cau afford to miss it. The. production is said to be a splendid one. The notable company includes John K.
