What We Say It la, It Ij
What Does Diamond
"Quality" Bean?
It refers only to presence or
absence of flaws. A flawless
stone is perfect quality even
though "off" color* The
trade term describing qual
ity—"degTee of perfection"
—should be "degree of im
perfection" to be good gram
mar, but the salesman finds it
more impressive to speak of
"perfection" rather than
"imperfection."
Color. weight and cutting are
the other main points in de
termining Diamond value. To
f judge these and quality ac
curately requires much study
and long practice in handling
many Diamonds.
Many years' experience in
grading thousands of Dia
monds has made Diener an
expert judge of Diamonds.
Each Diener Diamond is
guaranteed as to quality,
color, weight and cutting,
and prices represent the
greatest possible Diamond
value in each instance. We'll
be glad to show you Dia
monds.

A Fine Treatment
For Catarrh
Bur to Maki and Costs Little *
If you have catarrh don't be misled
or gulled into believing you can obtain
a cure for your trouble bv breathing a
simple medicated air.
Catarrh is a eunstitution.il disease
and inhalers, sprays and nose douches
merely temporiae with the disease and
seldom, if ever, bring any lasting ben
efit. To effect a cure use a remedy that
will drive the disease out of your sys
tem. Don't employ a remedy that will
drive the disease down into your lungs
and bronchial tubes. Such methods
often lead to consumption, and fre
quently produce catarrhal deafness and
head noises.
If you have catarrh in any form go
to your druggist and get one ounce of
Pariuint t Double Strength), take this
home and add to it V» pint of hot
water and -I ounces of granulated sugar:
stir until dissolved. Take a tablespoon
fill four times a dav.
The first dose should begin t*> relieve
the most miserable headache, dullness,
sneering, sore throat, running of the
nose, catarrhal discharges, head noises
and other loathsome symptom* that al
w»vs accompany this disgusting disease.
l.oss of smell, defective hearing and
mucus dropping in the back of the
throat are other symptoms that show
the presence of catarrh and which may
be overcome by the use of this simple
treatment. Every person who has ca
tarrh should give this prescription a
trial. There is nothing better.—Adr.

AXHEL OF CHINATOWN' COMING
Miss Livingston Will Advocate Suf
frage Here on Friday. April 30
Rose Livingston, of New York, and
Mrs. Ethel R. Vorce, of Cleveland,
Ohio, it was announced to-day, are
scheduled for speeches under the aus
pices of the Woman Suffrage party on
Friday, April 30, at the Technical
High school.
Miss Livingston calls herself a social
worker, but in Xew York she is better
known as the "Angel of Chinatown''
because of her work for the last seven
years in reclaiming the unfortunate vic
tims of commercialized vice in that
part of the metropolis bounded by Pell
and Doyers streets.
" 'The girl who disappears' is not
a myth.'' says Miss Livingston, who
declared she has accumulated proofs of
that fact during her work in Xew
York's underworld. She has traced
many of these unfortunates to the evil
resorts of Xew York and Brooklyn and
—sometimes alcne and sometimes with
the help of the police and city detec
tives—she has rescued them.
Mrs. Ethel R. Vorce, who is accom
panying Miss Livingston on tour of the
State, is the corresponding secretary of
the Ohio Woman Suffrage Association.
She has been a newspaper reporter and
then engaged in work of various kinds
from singing in a stock opera companv
to doing settlement work in Xew York.
Mrs. Vorce for three years was presi
dent of the Municipal School League,
which claims credit for having broken*
up the old political ring which con
tiolled the schools of Cleveland. She
was the first organizer of the Woman
Suffrage Party of Cuyahoga county and
is now its first vice chairman. For the
last two years she has been an officer
in the State Suffrage Association.
