GR1Ev1No FOR LOST PsARLs-It would
be bard to tell whe her most Joy or sorrow
has been csused at Notch Brook, N. j., by
the discovery Of the pearls. Dozens are be-
moaning fortunes that, in days past, they
carelessly flung away. One ma:ron unvail-
ing sighs over some "little white things" that
she once gave her boys for marbles. A
schoolmaster lugubriously remembered that
he had chopped eight or ten thousand dollars
worth with his penknife, ITO see what was in
side." Another genius rammed pearl bullet
down his rifle and shot away his fortune.
An old lady who chuckled six months over
her good bargain with the pedler," now dis
covers ahe paid him in p .arls, about seven
thousand dollars for calico dress. 1t is
needless to say she has'n laughed since. The
unfortunate man who had the $4,000 one
cooked for his breakfast has taken to bed in
utter dispair and refuses to be comforted.
