Sex of Gens.


 The Romans, following the Greek mineralogists, divided gems into males and females, according to the depth or lightness of their color. These terms are thus alluded to by Theophrastus: Both these (beryl. carbuncle, omphax, crystal and anne thyst) and the sard are found on breaking open certain rocks, present ing certain differences, but agreeing in name with each other. For of the the sard the transparent end blood red sort is called the female. while the less transparent and darker kind is termed the male, and the cyanus also is named one sort the male and the other the female, but the male is the deeper in color of the two" The cyanus, or cyanos, of the ancients is said, though probably incorrectly. by many modern mineralogists to be identical with our sapphire.

Set fin. Red Away from fin. Wall.

Where shall we set the bedf Away from the wall, and so arranged that we may go all around it without nov ing, for health sake and convenience in making. Physicians tell us that it is very unhealthy to sleep near the wall, on account of dampness for one thing; and another thing more seri- ous is that ones breath is thrown back to be inhaled again. An in stance is related where severe morn ing headache was cured (permanent- ly) by simply moving the bed from near the wall into the middle of the room.-Good Housekeeping.

nscomInr Len Handed suaasn,,.

Three years ago young lady of Fall River, Mass, was hit upon the left side of her head by Q falling sign as she was walking along a street in Boston. This was followed by brain fever. After some weeks she was as well in body and mind as ever, but from a right handed person she had become so left handed that she could neither cut, sew nor write with her right hand, but found it easy to do all these things with her left Her right hand was just about as useful as her left had been before she was hurt What is strange is that, with so recent a change in the use of her hands, she never makes an akward motion, and is as graceful in the use of her left hand as if she had been born left handed.
