A Diamond Tester.

A correspondent tells of an anus.
ing incident that occurred on a
train that was crossing the Rocky
Mountains. A travelling peddIer
undertook in the cars to sell large
diamond" rlrg TO miner who
had made his pile. "Humph,"
said the miner, after critically ex
aiming the ring. "they've got
common stone up in the diggiDgs
where I've been thatll cut that diA-
mond all to pieces!" "If you'll find
u stone that will cut that diamond
I'll give it to you," replied the
peddler. "All right" said the
miner, ''if l can't cut that diamond
with stone I'Il buy 1t of you"
Thereupon the miner took the ring
in his hand and pulled from his
vest pocket small piece OF brown
looking stone similar to bit of
dark freestone. except that the
grain was very fine, and with this
he proceeded coolly to cut and
scratch the diamond" with sew
eral ugly looking gashes. A group
of passengers that had gathered
about the miner were amazed, but
while they smiled the peddier with
his "diamopdn withdrew discom-
flied. "That little piece OF brown
store," explained tue miner. sis

Of habit of going to sleep In u

Is necessary that the training
should be explicit and include at.
tention to details. 1t is not very
important what a person does with
the intention of going to sleep, but
he should do precisely the same

Why 0striches Eat Stones.

An ostrich's digestion is aided by
stones or pebbles, which the bird
puts into its stomach to grind the
food 1t has eaten. This habit Is
brought out by the following mar
rstive, told in Forest and Stream,
of VISITORS experience while at
an ostrich farm in South Africa:
The first familiarity one of them
ventures to take is to make a snap
at our neck We give him slap
and stand back.
"Oh ! he's only after your breast.
pin,n says the farmer; II forgot to
tell you to keep your Jewelry out
of sight"
This is easily removed, but the
inquisitIve bird makes u peck at
the top button of my coat, and
when 1 find at last that be does not
seem to be very strong in the beak,
and that this is not his weapon OF
defense, I let him continue the
Ii we ask why these birds have
passion for buttons and studs, and
bright things generally, including
jack-knives, the farmer replies
that they are In the habiL of eating
pebbles and stones to help diges-
ton by the trituration Of their
food.
The harder the stone the better,
aud it is probable they associate
brightness with hardness.
