FACTS ABOUT AMBER.

Under the stratum Of trees is found
pyrites, sulphate Of iron and coarse sands,
IN which are rounded masses Of amber.
The largest amber mines in the world
today are nlong the Baltic, between Ko-
nigsberg and Memel, on the Prussian
coast.
The Romans discovered the true nature
of amber, that 1t is fossilized vegetable
gum, and therefore gave 1t the name Of
succinum, or gum stone.
Amber Is sparingly cast on the Swedish
and Danish coasts, and occasionally pieces
are picked up along the shores Of Norfolk,
Essex and Sussex in England.
The great source of the supply of amber
In all ages appears to have been the Baltic
coast, from which the supplies of COM
merce still continue to be drawn.
Amber was regarded by the ancients
with superstitious reverence because Of its
unknown origin and on account of the
electrical phenomena which IT exhibited,
Large quantities of amber are thrown up
from the sea on the Baltic and Prussian
coasts, and obtaining amber from the sea
Is regular industry, giving employment
to large numbers Of people.

are said to be those found at Catania,
which show beautiful play of color shad-
ing to purple. Amber has also been found
In different spots In Siberia and Greenland.
The trees from which the amber gum ex-
uded stood in forests of past epochs, as
many ages are necessary for the transfer
nation Of the substance. and are now form
ing strata of bituminous wood beneath
beds Of sand and clay.
During the reign Of Nero an expedition
was sent from Rome TO explore the amber
producing country, and 80 successful was
the search that 10, 900 pounds Of amber were
brought 10 the emperor, including one
piece weighing thirteen pounds.
Amber has been. found In various parts
Of the green sand formation of the United
States, either embedded In the soil or In
beds Of mari and ignite. The principal
localities are at Amboy, N, J.j at Gay
Head, on Martha's Vineyard, and at Cape
Sable.
The philosopher Thales, of Miletus, 600
b. c., noticed that amber when rubbed at
tracted light bodies to itself, and this OBJ
servation was the foundation Of the won.
named from electron, the Greek word foi
amber.
1t is not altogether certain what trees
exude the amber gum, though one species
of fir, pinetes succinifer, has been accepted
somewhat professionally. as the amber
| yielding tree; but noted botanists have
shown that the exudation may have pro
ceeded from other species also.
Amber Is a hard, lustrous resinous sub
stance, which Is found In alluvial deposits
1t Is usually of pale yellow color, but hai
sometimes reddish or brownish shade, 4
sometimes quite transparent, but is usu
ally Of varying degrees of translucency.-

At the annual meeting of the Board of Direc-
tors OF the above institution it was resolved, in
order to increase the usefulness of the Bank,
and to encourage small deposits, that the sys-
tenn of cent deposit stamps be adopted after
January l, 1891. This system has been in use
many years in Europe, and has recently been
adopted in the United States, and is regarded as
very beneficial, tending to teach children and
young people the advantage of saving money.
Agents will be appointed in all parts Of the
city and county for the sale of cent deposit
stamps. Each purchaser OF two deposit stamps
will be furnished with book ten leaves each
leaf ruled for twenty stamps. The agent will
send the name and number of each book pur-
chased to the Bank. Whenever any depositor
has filed leaf with twenty stamps, he can
bring this or send it by mail TO the Bank. You
will then receive a regular deposit book, with
one dollar to your credit, and whenever another
leaf Is filled and sent to the Bank another dollar
is entered on your book. Or the entire stamp
book of ten leaves may be filled and sent to
the Bank at one time.
The Main-street Savings Bank and Trust Co.,
incorporated October 2S, 1889, has had 500 de-
positors during the year.
The Bank is already on paying basis, and its
growth has been very satisfactory to its depos-
itors and stockholders Its Board of Directors is
composed of the following well-known citizens:
