Miss Nina Cromwell, of Detroit. who
claims to be lineal descendant of the
great Oliver Cromwell, owns yener-
able. Bible which is thought to be the
identical volume which the protector
used. 1t was printed in 1901, by John
Wolfe, for the assigns of Richard Day,
and was brought to this country in 1850
by benjamin Cromwell, the greatuncle
of the present owner, who has refused
$500 for it. The edges of the pages are
bordered with columns of references In
the style which is current today. The
references are not SO numerous, how-
ever, as those In a modern Bible. Be-
tween the Old and New Testaments
are the apocryphal books, and at the
close of the New Testament is a subject
index.
Perhaps the most curious part of the
volume Is the metrical arrangement OF
the Psalms with which 1t closes. The
preface to this part of the work states
that the Psalms were collected into
English meter by Thomas Stern. John
Hopkins and others, with apt notes to
sing them withall." The notes are dia.
mond shaped and are arranged on q
staff of five lines, having cleft not un.
like the modern tenor cleft. Each note
Is open and the stem, when one is used,
proceeds from the apex of the diamond.

There are some eincongruities for which
It Is difficult TO account. Why will .
woman who is a good itslge OF picture
hang on her person u naturaiistic hug or
flower made out of gold and diamonds
The Prince of Wales buys much jewelry;
it is his favorite gift On wedding occa-
sions, and he misses taste just as often
as anybody else. In fact he must bear
some OF the blame of keeping bad de-
signs in vogue, According to reports,
he presented not long ago to a profess
sionally musical bride brooch which
was an imitation of violin, and Ills gift
TO his niece who was lately married was
a diamond set flower. The prince can
make such designs fashionable, but he
can never make them in taste.
What is the matter with themf Sew
eral things. In the first place, jewels
shouldn't initiate natural objects. It's
long story why, but l will try to
abridge. Art that initiates Is never
good art. limitations ask admiration
merely for the skill with which one
thing has been made TO look like an
other. This is an idea that has nothing
to do with beauty or with ornament,
and it is artisans and not artists work.
Besides, to use an object. as q violin. for
another purpose than the one for which
it was designed is absurd and stupid.
This sort of thing is low kind OF
humor. on par with puns.
True art is creative. 1t aims at pro-
ducing forms of pure beauty. Such a
form asks admiration for itself, FOR its
form or color, without conjuring mp for
eign ideas. Art may make use of nat
ural forms. but only 10 combine their
beauties into new form, never imita-
tively.-Harper's Bazaar.

The beginning Of the End.

Mr.. Frick u credited with saying that
he recognizes the necessity Of getting
the Carnegie works in all departments
upon basis that viii enable them 20
dispense with protection, and that this
is the reason for the reduction Of the
wages and the contests with the labor
organizations that have occurred during
the last year or two. If Mr.. Frick made
this remark it Is creditable TO his per-
ception, and his conduct toward his
Homestead workingmen is eminently
calculated to bring sbout the conditions
for whichhe claims TO be preparing. II
is probable that the future historian in
writing the history Of the Nineteenth
century VIII point TO the Homestead
carnage as the beginning of the end of
protection In the United States.-St.

Fifty-four years ago Mr.. Gladstone
conceived tho idea that it would be bet
ter for his eyesight we're he 10 substitute
lamp by which he had been in the habit
of studying by night. The light shed
by two candles was not sufficient for his
purpose, but with the infiexibility and
perseverance, which are his most marked
characteristics he continued TO perform
his nightly task, with the result that his
right eye became so much weakened
that his medical adviser enjoined upon
him the necessity of abstaining totally
from work, and living as far as possible
in dark room for six, months. Long
before that period had expired Mr..
Gladstone made trip 90 southern Eu-
rope In company with his old college
friend, Sir Stephen Glynne.
Once again a grave accident TO Mr..
Gladstone's eye threatened for n few
days 10 produce the most, serious oonse-
Quences. It is well known that he did
mot begin to'wield fhe ak as an amateur
feller Of trees until he was forty years
old, and not long afterward chip flew
upward as he was cutting down a big
oak and struck him in Che right eye,
which is the more sensitive of the two.
Afew days OF rest and of abstention
from work sufficed to restore him en-
tirely, but 1t Is remarkable fact that
the ''arcus senilis," or circular ring out
side the pupil, was. developed In Mr..
Gladstone's eyes alta much earlier period

usually prolonged:-Lndon Telegraph.

DISEASE AMONG CATTLE.
Report OF the Veterinarian o.
North Dakota. o.

BISMARCK, n. D.. Jan. 2O-The an
nual report of DR.. w. c. Langdon, state
veterinarian, shows that 2.510 horses,
512 cattle and "a, 4S7 head of sheep were
shipped into the state last year. Five
of the horses proved to have CHAMBERS,
and were destroyed and the exposed
ones quarantined. A large number of
the sheep had the scab, and they we're
quarantined in the unorganized coun-
ties, and after being thoroughly
dipped. "we:e allowed to be distributed.
Among the thousands of cattle owned
in the state but six outbreaks of symp-
tomato anthrax (blackleg) were re-
ported. There were but four cases of
tuberculosis. From the diseases among
cattle the doctor reports the losses as
slight. probably not over 100 head. This
speaks volumes for North Dakota as a
cattle country. The loss from disease
this year is practically Dothing. The
cattlemen have learned that it pays to
put up hay for cattle at cost of 81 per
ton, and millions of tons go to waste
every year. Besides the work done by
his three deputies, the doctor travelled
11,437 miles by rail and TEA by vehicle.
