A GEM CALENDAR.
when to Give Away Precious Stones and
What They Signify.

when to Give Away Precious Stones and
What They Signify.
From time immemorial, says the Phil
adelphia Times, gems OF all sorts have
had their mystic significance and their
appropriate times and seasons for
alteration and presentation. The breast
plate of the Jewish high priest had its
oRacular gems, which were called the
''urim and thummim." The enchantar,
AppolloniuS Tyanaeus, wore special
rings for magical purposes, with appro-
pirate gems for each day of the week in
order to command the particular spirit
for each day.
The Hermetic brethren had certain
rules in relation to the power Of
precious stones to bring good or evil
fortune through the planetary affinity
of certain days They imagined that
certain gems were produced through
the operation of the planets working
secretly in the tclluric body. They ap-
portioned the stones for each day as
follows:
Sunday is devoted to all yellow gems,
like the topaz, in order to draw down
propitious influences and avert the an
tagonistic efforts of the spirits through
Monday, pearls and white stones, not
diamonds, should be worn or presented,
because this is the moon day.
Tuesday, the day of Mars, suggests
rubies and all stones of a fiery luster.
Wednesday is the day for turquoises,
sapphires and all precious stones which
reflect the blue vault of heaven.
Thursday, being the day of Thor, or
divine sacrifice, demands amethysts and
all deep-colored and sanguine-tinted
stones.
Friday, the day of Venus, has it's ap-
propriate emeralds, and rcigns over all
the varieties of the imperial, yet sinister
color-green.
Saturday, devoted to Saturn, the old
est of the gods, claims as it's distinctive
talisman the queen of precious stones,
the diamond, which is produced from
the back of Sat, or Saturn, the origin of
all visible things.

A MUSICAL SPIDER.
How He Was Mystifled and Plenssd by q
Tuning Fork.

How He Was Mystifled and Pleased by q
Tuning Fork.
A gentleman in California has been
trying experiments with spider, and
lie seems to think that the spider en-
Joys certain sounds cvcn after he finds
they arc not caused by the buzzing of
fly caught in the web. This is what a
San Francisco paper says about it:
"A gentleman was watching some
spiders when it occurred to him to try
what effect the sound of tuning fork
would have upon them. lie suspected
they would take it for the buzzing of q
fly. lie selected a large, ugly spider
which had been feasting on flies for two
months The spider was at one edge of
it's web. Sounding the fork the man
touched a thread ut the other side and
watched the result.
''NIr. Spider had the buzzing sound con-
veycd to him over the telephone wires,
but how was he to know on which par
ticular wire. it was traveling2 lie ran
to the center Of the web very quickly
and felt all around until he touched the
thread against the other end Of which
the, fork was sounding, then, taking
another thread along, just as q man
would take an extra piece of rope, he
ran out to the fork and sprang upon it.
Then he reiterated a little way and
looked at the fork. He was puzzled.
He had expected to find buzzing fly.
de got on the fork again and danced
with delight. Evidently the sound was
music to him."
