Judaism and Christianity all are familiar
but the iaith of Mohammed is not so we'll

The Arans are. without doubt descended

A Necklace or Human Eyes.

The wife of w. f. Curtis, OF Washing
ton, ID. c., is the possessor of a most un-
canny ornament in the shape Of q neck
lace made of human eyes. The eyes were
taken from Peruvian mummies. polished
and placed in their present settings. Ac-
counts given out few years ago, when
the necklace was being made, said that
the eyes were those of kind of fish
which, owing to the human eyes prone
ness to decay, had been substituted. Rea-
soning from a common-sense standl ut
will convince the most skeptical that an
embalmer who underst lands his work we'll

balmers for the real human optic.-St.
