For a gentlemens ring, stud or pis, a diamond bordering on yellow white is some times prefered and is always penuissable. These tints of blue i and yellow are not at all imaginary—if they exist you can see them. As an investment only diamonds of bright color, and great brilliancy should be considered. Diamonds of poor brilliancy and color are plentiful and grow more so every day. The one sure way to buy a diamosd that will always remain a good investment, one that can always be sold for what It cost you, is to buy of a dependable established local dealer in whom you can have con fidence.

Peru approved, enthusiastically, these principles and cast Her lot definitely for the cades defended by the Allies and the United States. The fruit of this irritation was the violent out break at Iquique and Pisagua. ‘“The offer of mediation by Presi dent Wilson between Peru and Chile lias been well received in P eru. which recalls the efforts made by the Uni*ed States during the war of 1879- 83, to'prevent the implanting of a re gimen of conquest in America.
