Benvenuto ael- Iini, the sixteenth century master As,ftsruan in gold, silver and prec- lous'stones, is said to have fashioned itfor one of the Florentine Medieis, EARL or 2 4.REWOOD who, according to tradition, present- ed it to a, mogul emperor of India. Experts have described the Can- ning jewel as the "supreme example of renaissance Jewelry.” It is set with pearls, diamonds, and rubies, and parts of it are in encrusted enamel. It is in the form of a Triton, the torso being a large single pearl. The jewel remained in possession of the moguls for 300 years, and when their capital, Delhi, was • cap- tured during the mutiny, it was found in the treasury of the Sing cf Oudh and appropriated by the Indian Government. Earl Canning, the vice- roy, bought it from the Government. Eventually the jewel passed from Ms collection to• that of his brother- in-law, the first Marquis of Clanri- carde. The second marquis, who died in 1916, bequeathed it to Ills great-nephew, the present Earl of Harewood. CANADA'S 'WHITE COAL.” 'Electrical Power Used to Produce Multitude of Goods In Dominion. A review of the electrical Indus- try in . Canada, discloses the degree to which electricity is displacing other owe 'oCanada's p r in the iaio D m n. immense resources of cheap power. are being turned to full account' In an industrial way. Cheap electrical energy is the factor which has mads possible much of the 'efficiency of modern methods of manufacture. All the power utilized in the pro- duction of automobiles, clay product:, and rubber goods in Canada is elo- trical. Sugar refining, printing and publishing, and plants manufacturing hardware and tools, brassand copper products, coke:and gas products elec- trical apparatus and' supplies have `9 0 per cent. electric power installations. In the long list of industries )peri= tioned in the table of power equip- ment published by the Dominion Bu- reau of Stott:Ales, the manufacture of feed and grist la the only one which natures leas than 5ll per cent. of electric energy. Seventy par cent. of sit the energy used throughout the mining industry of the cottntry, Including coal, metals' and petroleum, is electrical. Manufacturing and min- ing have cone into the electrical age. The total Inetallstion is lumber, pulp and paper, mills, 1,256,000 horee-power, far exceeds that in any other industry. " The rate of - expan- sion .in non-ferrous metals and in miscellaneous uses has been most rapid. ADVIoIl '4b !• s!!,. Timely Trafne lC>sies 1f4'lielk May Pre; vent Nlxmerowe Accidents.

She soon suffered a change of heart, however. The government also stated it would not interefere.with the royal commission on hydro which will commence sitting under Justice A. Middleton in the near future. This was in reply to a question asked by Harry Nixon, Progressive leader, as to whether the government had made any provision for counsel for "those who are critical of hydro," after Mr. Nixon had learned that Justice Mid- dleton appointed W.

You Wouldn't Board up a Show Window It's Just One of Several Splendid Means of Advertising Good Goods. There isn't any business man who would for a moment con- sider the idea of boarding up his show window and stopping this splendid means of letting all who -pass by his shop know. the values and the goods he has to offer them. There is scarcely any type of retail business that does not put a great deal of time in dressing the windows and having thein properly lighted. • And yet, not a fifth of your customers pass that show win - down on an average -of once:a week.. You may have a fine window and great values and the best of goods and yet if yon depend en- tirely on that one means of reaching all your possible customers you will fall far short of the objective. There are hundreds of busy housewives who do not have time to go down town every day. These housewives arrange the familybuying. If theycan't. window shop they do their buying through the advertisements. Even the window shoppers know they will miss excellent values if they fail to carefully scan the advertisements. When the merchant fails to -use the advertising columns he is boarding up the means of displaying and selling his goods to a circle much larger than the display window class of shoppers. Pro- gressive merchants like to invite all classes to their store. Most people like to shop where the merchants display their goods and values. The day of buying an unknown article is gone. Every week there are hundreds of 'readers of THE AD- V•ANCE-TIMES who are waiting for an invitation to shop at your store. Are you upthe boarding Advertising ShowWindow and telling then)ou have nothing y othilig for sale? They will never know. of your values ifyou do not remove the boards. 110.1110111111101010100.1.1011011011P1000.10=1 Invite New Customers to your Store. Tell the Old Friends You are Still in Business.
