It was accidentally discovered thousands of pounds sterling hail been flung away in the purchase of worthless faked Japanese importations. How long the imitations have been coming to England and "how many are in existence is unknown and this is causing something approaching a panic in Hatton Garden among the big jewelers. The faked jewels are so perfect thai 11H lief n?rl >?11 />v/l ! ?i 11 I<1 1 !?'# VI IV ty ? VU^UiiKI (HI VMVIIIKU > oriental pearls, these imitations have been sent to this country already pierced. This discovery wa.^ made when a workman in one of the hi-jewelry shops was making a :.iockl.,,;,e out (if pearls bought for 10.000 pound:-. He found that one of the pierced hole.-* was not large en? mgh for the : t'. ie?;and so he tried to enlarge it. In so doing; he chipped a piece of poirl head inside a coating of pearl film. London jewelers state that .he fake is a product of eight or ten years o work spent in the development of Japanese pearl culture anil in lu try and has been brought to perfection. The system is to catch oysters and by a surgical operation insert a mother of pearl bead in the flesh of the oyster, which is then returned to itbed. After two months the oysters are recaught, by which time the moth er of pearl is found to he covered with a thin pearl film deposited by the oyster. The imitations are the same in weight, size and color of oriental pearls, and when tested with the teeth they grit and grate like the genuine ones. Secret meetings have been held among London jewelers who are faced with the difficulty of discovering a harmless test by which the fakes cav be detected from genuine pearls. It has also been proposed to the Board of Trade that the importation of pearls be suspended until an effective test has been discovered. It is probable that a number of legal contests in the courts may result from this discovery. as the difference in value between a genuine pearl and a fake pearl is in about the same relation as a dollar to a cent.

By SYLVIA TURNER. |j Mrs. Fallows alighted from the lit- ; tie local train as sole passenger for Deerfoot. The train went on, after depositing her ou the lonely, narrow platform, and slipped away Into the shadowy mountain distances. "Expecting anybody to meet you?" She turned with a little start at the cheerful voice, and faced Hiram Boffat, general factotum around the sta tlon. "No, hardly," slio answered, nervously. "1 can litre .some sort of eon* veyance, I presume." "Well, I don't know where, ma'am,** said lliralu genially, if not reassuringly. Hen Lathrop keeps a horse, hut he lives over the edge of the mountain, and the next best Is old Jake's mule. If he's home and sober, like as not he'd take you where you want t<? go. Going very far?" "1 want to go to Mr. Fallows' home; Mr. Jerrold Fallows." The mule took its own time, and It was nearly 8:.'{() before Jake pulled up before a mountain shack, just as the morning sun broke In glory over the crest of Piney Knob. At the two windows hung white scrim curtains, with a glimpse of flowering geraniums along the sill. Ami from the back came a full, girlish contralto voice singing Joyously. "That's Elvy," said Jake. "Got nice singing pipes, ain't she?" Then In the cool mountain morning air Jerry Fallows' mother and the girl he loved, Elvy of Piney Knob, met for the first time. JSlie was .Hist h girl, not more than eighteen, but with tho mountain spirit about her. "Won't yon step Inside and sit by the tire, where it's warm?" Elvy's soft, rich, southern voice was beautiful. Unconsciously Mrs. Fallows breathed a sigh of relief. Jerry surely had a good excuse for falling so ridiculously in love, at any rate. "Jerry'U be awfuiy glad to see you when he comes home." Elvy knelt to put on some fresh, dry wood under the hip; back log. "lie's .just gone up to the wood lot after a load." "I am glad he is not here." Mrs. Fallows sat upright. It was not a pleasant task that had brought her to I the mountains. "I think you are the I one to decide for him." "I?" queried Elvy, sitting down on the round braided rug in surprise. | "Why?" "You know, of course, Jerry would never have remained here In this wilderness if he had not met you. lie was sent down bv his uncle's lumber Interests to look the ground over and ro1 port on conditions. Later, tie was put i in charge of the lifting out <>f timber :it his own request. The next we | heard was that he was married." t .. . ..... '.Mm! you ih'Vit even sent one lime wcnl hack to him." said 151 vy. softly, ! dreamily almost. irazing into the ernck ling tire. "I don't see how yon could : have done flint to him." | "Han't you?" (lie older woman's face f hardened. 'Alter you had raised ft j sun. your only one. built nil your hopes ' and amhilions on his future. an<l then I at iwenty-two. he married a?a?" "Just a mountain girl like me?" "Yes. Could you understand and : forgive 1" I "I guess when you really love, you I ean forgive most anything." I "I'ossibly," with a hitter little biturh. ; "I eould not. You have heen married ! now for a year. I en me down 1 ? .Terry I with his father's word of fortr!venose. II" is wllllf.ir to overlook all the p:\sf, : nn<l take him hflek. give him sin :isvured career, and make up to him for this misspent year. Hut you must stay behind him here, and if you really 1 do love him. you will think of him first. Hive him a year or two hark In his own world. If when he is successful ami really a grown man. he chooses to return to you. wo will con ' sent to it." Klvv lose slowly. Then without n word, she wont into the next room. Mrs. Fallows waited. It hstd boon hard, but not us though Jerry himself laid hen there to argue with. The girl was proud. She would stiroly let him go. And then behind her she hearfl Klvv's footfall, and turned her head Proud and silent she stood there, f world of love in her eyes, and 1 it hei arms Jerry's first-born. "Tie's only a month old," *he sabl gently. "Hut he's the reason why 1 couldn't ask Jerry to go away nn^ leave us." It was a little past ten when Jerri drove down the road with his load o wood. When lie entered the kitehei he stood amazed. With one of IOIvy'i big aprons on her. his mother sat he I fore the Are bathing Jerry. Jr., he fa"e radiant with contentment. Xh laughed s;s she put tip her face for i - k i THE HORRY HERALD. CONWi "Oh, Jerry," she said, 'Isn't he won derful?" ( Jerry knelt before them both, his eyes full of fun. Was this his conservative, worldly little mother from New York? "Why, mumsle," he snld, putting his ' head on her shoulder, "I didn't know ;j you liked babies. 1 thought you'd re- ! bel If you knew even that you were a ' grandmother. How did you even find us?" i "J think I was sent. and Elvy won aie over. No. I want to tell him the < truth." as Elvy's eyes begged her not j: to. "1 came here deliberately, Jerry, to try and coax you back north with me, and then the dear child laid this ;; laddie In my arms, and what could I j do hirt !.?ve her?"

AUSTRIAN PLANS BIRDLIKE PLANE London.?As the result of an offe: from an American syndicate, Prof. Raimund Nimfuhr, the Austrian scion tist. is reported to be planning a visit to the United States accompanied by his assistant engineer, Her Ga?da. to superintend the construction of fly in/? machine with wings, using the principle of bird flight for propelling force. The new machine has no propellers. Prof. N:rv!fuhr has ioined thn directorate of the Nimfuhrshe Segrd flu v." Syndicate of Holland and Her Schwen g'er, chief of the Zeppelin work.-, and Her Skopik, head of the designing staff of the Fokker works, helieve lie is on the right track to revolutionize the whole present conception of mechanical flying.

He believes that if he could take a bird and increa :e it in si;:e un- ( til it is as biff as a medium size plane J it would not exert a creator propelling force than ten horse power. His principle in building his ma- i chines is to imitate as far as possible the method of nr.'t'Ve. His wing ivlies on an extrao'- I? nary rapid vibration or stroke action upon the cushion of compressed air. which in flying: i : formed beneath the sustaining; plane. The actual win:? will be hollow, with a f -exii>!e membrane mm the upper side. By a pneumatic mechanism this membrane is set to vibrating or puMng with such rapidity that waves of atmospheric pressure will be generated, which, he says, will not only sustain but propel the machine. There is also a mechanism by which the extremities of the wings can he ! extended or contracted by pneumatic action, the same as the stretching and folding of the wings of a bird. Another feature is a pneumatic stabilizer by which any disturbance of balance will set levelcrs in motion, which, by controlling small motors, will counteract any tendency to lost equilibrium. Pulsating wings on a large scalr have already been built and tested 1 and have proved satisfactory, according to prof. Nimfuhr. He forsees the m 0 S3 h m n m m m M m n ib i m jg?
