Caution—Jewelry.

By James White

We advise our brethren not to receive jewelry when offered to them to use for the benefit of the cause. Those who give it are generally deceived as to its real value. They were abominably cheated when they bought it, and think they are giving five or ten times more than can be realized for it. Worn and damaged jewelry sells for the next thing to nothing, and will not pay the trouble of marketing. Let those who have it, and from a sense of duty wish to wear it no more forever, sell it themselves, and appropriate the proceeds as they think best. J. W.
