adding as the youth sped II into the

Tho Nations Jewels,

Uncle Sam has some of the finest Jewels
in the Tinted States. Stored away in his
National museum at Washington are BUSH
els of gold, quarts of precious stones, doz-
ems of beautiful pearls, and china and cut
glass which are worth their weightin goA.
1t takes four large cases to contain the un.
cut gems belonging to u governmental
uncle, and the largest parlor in the United
States would be crowded with cases which
contain his articles Of carved gold.
The gems are kept in three plate glass
cases laid on blue velvet pads, and it daz-
zles ones eyes to look at them. Many of
them come from America, some are from
India, and some have strange histories
connected with them. The jewels which
lay so long in the treasury department at
Washington are among them. Professor
Clarke had these removed to the museum
not long ago. Among them are the jewels
which the sultan of Muscat, in Arabia,
gave to President Van Buren,, but which,
according to the rules of our government,
he was not able to keep and had to hand
over to the treasury department. .s.
There was no provision as to what should
be done with them, and they lay unseen in
the vaults for years. Among them are
two large pearls as big as pigeons eggs.
These are unset, and are as pretty as when
they came from the head of an oyster
many years ago. Besides. there are 15O
pearls, each as big around as q marrowfat
pea and each having ahole pierced through
1t. They were evidently intended for a
necklace. On another pad there are 18C
diamonds received at the same time. These
are not large, but they are very pure and
