AMBER RICH IN LEGENDS Except for Decorative Purposes, How ever, It Is No Uss In World's Economy. Amber, used for pipe stems, is a suh stance that, has disappointed countless ages. The ancients believed It pos sessed a soul. There have been many legends connected with It. and it was supposed to have' mysterious proper ties, but nothing has come of it all. it merely has a sort of negative, elec tricity which is developed when a piece of the 'substance is rnbbed. but that is all. It is the same property which the fur of a cat possesses when you rub 11 the wrong way on a cold | day. A ruDbcr comb passed over a hu- 1 man's hair, especially on a cold, dry day, develops the same amouat of elec tricity. Beyond being ornamental, a sort of semiprecious stone, as it were, it hns been of no use to the world, says a writer In an exchange. The old Greeks believed it came from the tears of the sisters of Phae ton, who wept Into the sea, and their Umrs were petrified into amber. How eler, modern science declares it Is tire fossilised gum of trees of past epochs The most important beds are on the Prussian coast of the Baltic sea. There are mines near the coast, and the amber often is picked up on the coast, especially after heavy storms. It is also collected from nmsses of sea weed. It Is found, however, op every continent. In America much of it is found on the coasts of Maryland and Massachusetts. The bright yellow is highly prizeo I in Europe, but the clouded, whitish I yellow Is favored among the Orientals and In America. .SUBSCRIBE TO THE DAILY NEWS TURN HI DARK WITH SAGE TEA Grandma kept her locka dark, glossy and thick with a simple mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur.
