cit is truel ut is truel" said he,
examining it under the powerful light.
"A wonderful stone,-a perfect form,
"a prodigy! Come here, Edith; look
at this!n
A young lady who had entered the
room drew near. 1t was only by look
ing at the facet we had cut and pol
islied that she could distinguish that
this was a diamond, for it was dull
and gray, and looked like lump OF
glass that had passed through the
fire.
ct is an extraordinary size, is it
not, papa?" she asked.
Extraordinary, indeed! The Koh-
moor is not fourth of the size! See
what the book says about that; get
down Haydn, my dear"
Miss Lascelles fetched the book, while
her father still examined the stone,
as an artist might masterpiece, and
presently read aloud:
cts original weight was nearly 800
carats, but it was reduced by the un-
skillfullness OF the artist-Borghese, q
Venetian-to 279 carats; it's shape
and size resembled the pointed half
rose cut of a small hens egg; the value
is scarcely computable, though two
millions sterling have been mentioned
as justifable price, if calculated by
the scale employed by the trade. This
diamond was re-cut in 1852, and now
weighs 102 LIZ carats.
Good, good!' cried the Baronet.
"With skillful cutting, q diamond OF
such u form as this need not loose 100
carats. Heavens! he exclaimed, turning
to us, 'you have the greatest treasure
in the world"
"Give me your hand, Thorne; hold
me" said Van Hoeck in low voice,
and speaking thickly. ......
l turned quickly, and caught him as
he reeled forward; for he had tainted,
either from the want of food, from in.
tense excitement, or both.

The Rainy Weather Dress

The rainy weather gown has ater-
ialized and stands justly among the
great inventions of the age. In the
intellectual air of erudite Boston the
germinal idea was evolved from the
nebula of the indefinite, and above
the classic mud af Boston's tortuous
streets it's wearer proudly propelled
it through one of last weeks heavy
rains, mudless' s and unspotted to the
end of the trip. 1t is made of green
and tan repellant cloth, with Killed
skirt fastened to a short wasted bod
ice, and is worn over trousers of green
cloth, gathered about the knee on an
elastic band.
Leggings of the same material as the
dress are buttoned over the boots
and meet the trousers at the knee.
The hat is made of two shades of re-
pellent cloth, and trimmed with dark
green feathers and tan-colored gimp.
Mrs. Ingersoli, the wearer of the
gown, reported that the abbre-
waited skirts attracted less at.
tention than she expected, and said
that the women seemed more curious
than the men, and turned to take a
second look, saying, "Why that isn't
so very bad" with very strong ac-
cent on the that. IN. Y. Sun.

An Empress' Mantle,

One of the handsomest silver we'd
ding presents received by the Empress
OF Russia, is an ermine mantle, which
cost over $4,000 presented to the
Czarina by the nobility of the prov.
ince of Kherson, but was made up in
Paris, for the making-un of furs has
been for years and remains still
prominently Partisan art. Paris
ian furriers are almost always in
trusted with the manufacture of the
splendid fur garments that become
heirlooms in the greatest families in
Europe. Ermine, besides being the
emblem of royalty, is also that OF
purity and stainlessness: but it is
nevertheless, so delicate a fabric that
no white fur gets so easily soiled.
Very few people know how to clean
white furs, and it may therefore be of
interest to New York elegants to
learn the method recommended to me
few years ago by the famous St.
Petersburg furrier Paul Cubaeus.
The furs must first b e
washed with tallow soap
and lukewarm water, and
then rinsed with q weak solution of
crystals of soda, all the soapsuds be-
ing removed from the fur with hard
brush. Should there be dark stains,
such as are made by carriage grease
or other fat substances, on the fur, it
will be necessary to rub them with
benzine q few hours before washing
it. It sometimes happens that in
spite of this treatment the furs retain
yellowish hue; this can, however, be
removed by bleaching them in the
following manner: Whilst still damp,
the articles must be immersed in very
cold water, in which four pounds of
sulphuric acid of natron have been
diluted. After an hours soaking
four pounds Of salic acid are added to
the mixture, which must be well
stirred. Whilst the furs are in the
fluid, the vessel containing them
should be tightly covered, so as to ex-
clude the action of the air on the
acids. Lastly the furs must be rinsed
several times with pure cold water

AN INDIAN JAILOR.

TO BE CONTINUED.

The Falthfulness OF His Reports to
His Superlors.
Surrounding the Jail, writes tray
eler on India, was large guard con-
sisting of native jaiIer, a number of
deputies and few paid wardens, all
armed with muskets and amply pro-
vided with ammunition, most of it
was so old and damp that it could
not be utilized in case of an emer-
gency. The posse was commanded
and drilled by handsome ola pen
stoned subahdar native officer.
This old gentleman wore a collar OF
large gold beads round his neck, and
over his dress of spotless white an
embroidered sword belt supported a
native sword in a green and gold
scabbard. He was a very striking
looking old man, and had strict no.
tions of discipline and duty. His
father had been at Plassy with
Give.
1t was part of this officers duty to
make his morning report at the mag
istrate's house if the magistrate had
not time to GO to the Jail on his morn
ing round. His usual report was
brief and emphatic.
"My lord, the jail is all WE'LL"
One morning he continued it
thus:
"Be it known to our lordship that
the jail cat has had five kittens. Will
your lordship order that the cat have
an extra ration of milk"
This he said in the gravest voice,
with his hand still at his forehead in
military salute. When the order was
given for the cats extra ration he
marched off without the shadow of a
smile on his face, while the magistrate
remained almost convulsed with sur
pressed laughter.

Beauty often depends on
plumpness; so does comfort;
SO does health. If you get
thin, there is something
wrong, though you may feel
no sign of it.
Thinness itself is a sign;

The way to get back
plumpness is by CAREFUL

cludes the use of SCOTS
