ron EDIT4RD's EDUC4TTON.


The time at length came when Tom
Edward must be educated To be sure,
he had been educating himself pretty
rapidly, but he must be sent to school.
This he hated. He could not bear the
confinement. When between four and
five years old he was sent to danes
school, kept by an old woman called Bell
Hill in the garret of an ordinary dwell
ling-house. But he often played the
truant, and would rather be in the fish
market than the schOol-room. His tru-
ancy soon became known to his mother,
who then employed her mother, Toms
granny, to take him to school, But Tom
rebelled against his granny's supervision,
and got away from her so often that she
had to drag aim "by the scr1f o. the
neck" Once he slipped away from her,
and ran for the water, and was in the
act of getting lot of h6rse-leeches, when
his granny, who had pursued him, caught
him by the neck. He let go of the stone,
and. making a sudden bound, upset the
old women in the water. His comrades
called out, "Tam, Tam, your granny's
drooin' - Tom was off, and did not get
home till night, when his mother abused
him for a ragamuflin who tried to drown
his granny For once his father was in
good d-humor, and remarked to his wife
that "granny should beware of going so
near the edge of such a dirty place"
The scapegrace returned to school, but
did not learn much. The education that
Bell Hill gave was rather theological /;
she prayed, or, as Tom called it,
"groaned." with the children twice a
dav, and in one of these devotional exer-
cises Tom came TO grief. She forbade
him to bring his "nasty and dangerous
things" to the school, but it made no
difference. He had noisy jackdaw at
home, of which he was very fond, and
one dav he stuffed it inside of his trou-
sers. and took it to school. While
Mother Bell was at prayer the daw be.

went up to him, pulled him up by hi
collar, dragged him to the door, thrus
him out, and locked the door after him

The classification Of jewels by the
author arranges all precious stones in
three classes The first comprises 4 sin
gle st0ne-tIe diamOnd-whichi Is com.
posed only of carbon. The second COM
prises all Jewels the base of whose com
position is alumina. The last of these
is much more varied than might be sup.
posed, since it contains stones as varied
in appearance and color as the sapphire,
the ruby, the Balas ruby, the Spinel
ruby, the topaz, the emerald, the beryl,
the aquamarine, the cymophane and the
turquoise. Alumina is the base of the
common red and yellow clay which is
found everywhere in the utmost abund-
ance, and was only a mark of distinction
known to chemists between the common
clay and the sapphire, or the emerald, is
the fact that the latter are clystalized.
and contain traces of metallic oxides
which give color to the stones The
narle corundum is applied by mineralo-
gists of all varieties of crystallized alu-
nina, whatever their color Colorless
corundum is so brilliant as sometimes to
be mistaken for diamond, but ii may
be readily distinguished by its double
refraction and by its small specific grav-
ity. The corundums are often exceed
ingly valuable, rubies of perfect lustre
and purity being of greater value than
diamonds. The ruby ranks first for
price and beauty among all colored
stones. 1t is of the pure red of the
spectrum, and next, after the sapphire,
is the hardest of precious stones, always
excepting the diamond. Charles Achard
the highest authority Sin France in all
that concerns the traffic in colored stones
remarks that weight has not the same
effect in their case as in that of the dia
mond. Every diamond, from the very
smallest specimen upward, has its value
like gold and silver, according to weight
but in the case of rubies and other gems
the little specimens have hardly any
value, and these stones only begin to b
appreciated at the moment when thei
weight withdraws them from the com
mon lot, and assures at once their rarit,
and high price. When a perfect rub,
of five carats enters the markets, a pric
will be offered for it double the price {
perfect diamond of the same weight
and if ruby reaches the weight of te
carats, it will bring triple the price of
diamond of the same weight (from 50, 90
to $4,000 Tie carbuncle of the al
clients is the same as our modern rub,
