Restoration they gave up she regalia IN
safety to Charles IT, A grant Of two
thousand marks rewarded Mrs. Gnnger
for her faithful service The crown and
regalia Of Scotland were afterwards re-
turned to Scotland, and during the reign
Of the Hanoverian line Of kings III the
early part Of the last century, were, on ac-
count of the mistrust with which The SEN
timent of Scotch nationality was regarded,
locked up in strong Golfer in Edinburg
Castle, for more than century. In 1918,
however, they were restored to light.
OF the modern crowns Of continental
Europe perhaps tho most remarkable is
the well-known triple crown or papti tiara,
or perhaps we should say tiaras, for there
are four Of them. The tiara is seldom
worn by the Pope; it is carried before him
in procession, but, except on rare occa-
sions, he wears mitre, like an ordinary
bishop. OF the existing tiaras, the most
beautiful is that which was given by Ma
poleOn |. to Plus VII. in 1905. II is
said to be worth upwards Of forty five
thousand dollars. Is three circlets are
almost encrusted with sapphires, emeralds,
rubies, pearls and diamonds; and the great
emerald at its apex, said to be the most
beautiful in the world, is alone valued at
thirty-two hundred dollars.

FINGER RISGs.-Rings, which are now
looked on merely as ornaments, without
meaning, except in the cases Of the we'd
ding and engaged rings, were formerly
thought to be full of occult significance.
Certain stones represented virtues, and
Others were famed for their magical value.
The Poles believe that each month of the
year is under the influence Of a precious
stone, which exerts its power over the des-
tiny of any person born during the perisd
Of its sway. 1t is, therefore, customary
among friends and lovers to make recipro-
cal presents of trinkets ornanented with
the natal stones. The following is a list
of the stones peculiar to each month, with
their meanings ;-January-Garnet con-
stancy and fidelity. February-Ame-
thyst +; sincerity. March Bloodstone ;
courage and presence of mind. April
Diamond innocence May-Emeald /;
success in love. June--Agate health
and long life. July-caruelian; cOnten-
ted mind. August-Sardonyx cOnjugal
felicity. September-Chrysolii antidote
against madness. Octobor-0pal hope.
NOvember-Topaz; fidelity. December
-Torquoise prosperity.

The Ebenezers.

In 1912 a colony Of Germans, number
ing 500, and calling themselves the aEbe-
nezers, settled near Buffalo, and bought
5000 acres ofland. Their religion was and
issimilar to that of the Quakers. In1S57,
with the number Of the community in.
creased to 800, they sold out and went to
Iowa. A recent description Of them says
they now own 10000 acres Of beautiful
land, consisting Of woodland and prairie
mixed, situated on The banks Of the Iowa
River, about seventy miles from the Mis-.
sissippi. They are known as 1Amanes,'
and the colony has increased to about II
300. Everything in the way Of property
is held in common, but each family has
its separate habitation. Those who Join
the community contribute their property
to the common stock, and if they become
dissatisfied they receive back just what
they put in, without interest or wages,
and leave. so property cannot well be-
come a bone Of contention, aud no one can
regard himself prisoner when he Is free
to go where he pleases. The members
dress plainly, build very plainly, but sub
stantially, and in no way ornamental.
They appear to have no vices whatever,
commit no crimes, and have no use for
courts. They have built Eve villages on
the tract, and two Of them are railroad
stations. They hove good schcolhouses
aud plain churches, and two grain eleva-
tors at the railroad stations, each Off ca
pacity for storing $4,000 bushels Of grain.
The children are kept at school until they
are fourteen, and then they are taught a
trade or agriculture, aud their education
is continued in night schools. English Is
taught, but German is the medium Of
communication in business and social life.

so much at home that Sabina wept some
Of the bitterest tears of her life when he
left
To have you both and lose you !" she
sobbed.

Fred whispered and so consOled her.
But, alasl the next time Fred came was to
superintend the funeral of the gentle old
lady, and though Cornelia came too, his
happy wife, there was no welcome in the
pale lips or the blue eyes closed forever.
But the will the old lady left gave all
her worldly possessions to her "dear neph-
ew, Frederick Gorham," the farm and the
farm house.
II was apparently no very great legacy,
and Cornelia smiled at many of the old
fashioned treasures she touched, all with
tender reverence death leaves
Ten years ago Sabina was laid to rest in
her narrow coffin, and there is busy
hourishing town round the site Of the old
farm.
Mr.. Frederick Gorham lives there now
and handles immense sums of money, the
rents of stately buildings.
Made his money, sir, by speculations, "
you will be told, if you inquire as to his
source of income; fortunate purchase Of
ground before the town was thought Of. -"
But l, who know, tell you that the only

Of his heart extending loving attentions to
his fathers sister, and that the only land
he ever owned was Aunt Sabina's farm.

Some striking facts in connection with
the Presidential Office become more prom.
inent since the recent death Of the only
surviving ex-President. After the death
Of Washington, then the only ex- President,
in 1893, upwards Of twenty-six years elap-
sed before another death, the number Of
living ex-Presidents then increasing TO
four. The greatest number living at one
time was five, in 1862, when no death oc.
Cured during the preceding eleven years.
The following record shows the remarkable
fact that of the seventeen ex-Presidents
five died within one week, aud ten within
five weeks Of the nations birthday, three
dying on the fourth day of July, and two
on the semi-centennial anniversary Of In
dependence. All the predecessors Of John
Quincy Adams, except Washington, died

A True GENTLEMAN.--A true man is
above mean thing. He cannot stoop to
mean fraud. He inyades no secret in
the keeping of another. He takes selfish
advantage of no mans mistakes. He is
ashamed Of inuendoes. He uses no ig-
noble words in controversy. He never
stabs in the dark. He is not one thing 10
mans face and another to his back. If
by accident he comes into possession of
his neighbor's counsels, he passes upon
them instant oblivion. He bears sealed
packages without tampering with the wax.
Papers not meant for his eye, whether
they Autter in at the window, or lie open
before him in unguarded exposure, are sa.
cred to him. Heprofanes no privacy for
others, however sound the sentry sleeps,
Bolts and bars, locks and keys, bonds and
securities, notice TO trespassers, are not for
him. He may be trusted anywhere. He
buys no Office, he sells none, intrigues for
none. He would rather fail Of his rights
than win them through dishonor. He win
eat honest bread. He insults no man.
If he has a rebuke for another, he is
straightforward open and manly. He
cannot descend to scurrility. Billingsgate
don't lay on his track OF woman and to
her, he speaks with decency and respect.
In short, what be judges honorable he
practices towards every one.

MARaIAGR-BEPoRE AND AFTER
Marriage quite frequently makes radi-
cal change in the contracting parties. A
ccurting young man finds one of his great
est pleasures in accompanying his girl to
church Of a Sunday evening, or if denied
that enjoyment, he gladly accepts the po-
sitiOn Of waiter at the tabernacle until the
service closes. The weather does not az.
feet him. He viii wait as patiently in
the driving sleet as In the simmer ing
moonlight, and be as oblivious to the keen
cold Of winter as TO the balmy air of sum-
mer He may be drenched through to
the skin or chilled to the bone, but be no.
tices neither. After marriage she thinks
herself fortunate If she can secure the
company Of neighbor going the same
way, and reaching home has TO awake her
devoted lover 10 inquire II he is going "a
bed or il he is going 10 sleep on that
lounge all night

The CARE or On CLorHs.-An oil
cloth requires careful treatment, and
should never be scrubbed with hard
brush and soap, but after first being swept
with the long handled hair brushes that
are made for the purpose, it should be
carefully washed with large, soft cloth
dipped into milk and water, half and half;
or if the milk is not obtainable, tepid
water without soap. The latter ruins oil
cloth by taking off the brightness of the
paint, and it should never be applied to it.
Hot water is also very injurious to it,
either Of them-soap or hot water--being
sure to injure the oil cloth more than the
wear Of it. When washed over, wipe il
of with a soft, dry cloth, and it viii always
retain bright look. In purchasing an
oil cloth it is very desirable to obtain one
that has been made for several years, as
the longer it has lain unwashed the better
it will wear--the paint becoming harder
and more durable in the course Of time.

further at this time. SO we may close
this with a reference to one very frequent

How many times too, We find this reptat-

other words than those of the English
