A CHARITABLE HORSE.

A Story Illustrating the Force of

There is story told of a precise old
gentleman who, having purchased a
pony for driving, was annoyed by the
animals stopping at every public house
he passed in his drives The pony gave
sure indication of the habits of its for
the celebrated Polish general. appears
to have had a different training.
When the Polish leader was living in
exile in Switzerland he wished to send
a few bottles of choice wine to clergy
man who dwclt at Solothurn. He in
trusted the wine to a young man named
Zelteur, lending him his own horse on
which to perform the journey. Young
Zelteur set out with the basket of bot
ties and was cantering along the road,
when poor man approached, and, pull
ing off his hat, asked for aims The
horse Immediately came to full stop
and refuse to move for either coaxing
or threats. This was awkward for the
young man, who had no money, and
the horse seemed to be waiting for
something; but a bright idea seized him.
He plunged his hand into his empty
pocket and pretended to take out some
money and made a motion as if putting
it in the poor mans hat This he had
no sooner done than the animal trotted
on again.
After going on for some distance
another beggar pulled off his hat and
the horse again stood still. This time
Zelteur was prepared for the occasion
and pretended to put money in the
mans hat The animal went on his
way quite satisfied The wine was
duly delivered to the clergyman and
Zelteur, having encountered during the
Journey several mendicants, all OF
whom he induced the horse to pass by
pretending to give them something, re-
turned to Kosciusko and told him he
would never ride his horse again un-
less he also lent him his purse.
"Why SOP" asked Kosciuslo. And then
the young man, much to the general S
amuse mcnt narrated the incidents OF
the journey and how he was obliged
to pretend to give something to the
poor bcggars in order to satisfy the
horse Times

A Happy Device.

A wise young woman, who was the
fortunate possessor of more pictures
than she could afford to frame, bought
a sheet of pulp board at printing
Office and made mat about five inches
wide for charcoal picture She cut
the board very carefully with a sharp
knife, and after tacking the picture on
the wall the mat was put over it and
secured with small tack at each OF
the four corners. To relieve the plain
look she fastened red ribbon across
one lower corner with brass-headed
tacks and slipped five or six photo
graphs under the ribbon and the edge
of the mat. The cost was only 10 cents
and the effect remarkable. A steel en-
craving may be framed in the same
way.--Chicago Tribune

ABOUT DIAMONDS.



Formation.
The diamond, one of the most bsauti-
full products of nature, is at the same
time one OF Its greatest mysterieA
How can tho black lead of your pencil
be, so to speak, own brother to the
most brilliant of gems? They are both
crystallized carbon, but how unlike!
The chemist who could find out the se-
cret OF turning common carbon into
diamonds would be able to heap up =
fortune by the side of which Monte
Cristo's cave of treasures would look
poor enough; and there are chemists
who do not give up hope of some day
discovering the priceless secret.
OF late years, the scientific study of
the diamond has led into a new field of
investigation. Men have found out, not
how nature makes diamonds, but where
she makes them, and that is a great
step in advance. There Is strong evil
dence Of connection OF some kind be-
tween diamonds and volcanoes.
In the South African diamond fields
the gems are found in what are called
''pipes," which are round or oval stems
of a peculiar kind of rock, several acres
in extent at the top. and running down
to unknown depths into the earth.
Near the surface this rock, which is
rich in iron, is disintegrated by expos
rre to the weather, and assumes a yell
lowish color. It would not be exactly
true to say that it holds diamonds as q
pudding holds plums, but the imagina-
tion naturally forms such simile. The
precious pebbles are readily extracted
from the friable rock.
Deeper down the ''pipe" changes
character. The rock becomes a COM
paratively hard, blue mass, much more
difficult to work. Yet it is still
sprinkled through with diamonds,
lying embedded in the molds where
nature made them. This blue rock has
to be exposed to the weather or treated
with water before it will yield up its
treasures.
Now it is clear from the nature and
appearance of the diamond bearing
rock that it is OF volcanic origin, and
the pipes" are evidently the necks OF
ancient volcanoes whose fires died out
probably thousands of years ago.
When we consider that the diamond
burns and is consumed at high tenn
perature, we cannot think that the
gems contained in those ancient pipes
of rock were brought there from the
interior of the earth while tho rock was
in molten condition.
1t is far more probable that, under
peculiar conditions of pressure and
temperature they were formed where
they are now found while the rock was
cooling off. 1t remains to be learned
what the real conditions of their form a.
tion were.
----- .-~. >SV,nS W nHS" llid>
this "mothcr rock" of the damon ds,
rs it is called, bears a considerable
analogy to some of the meteoric stone q
that fall out of the heavens.
If the ancients had known this fact,
they would have invented romantic
story Of some celestial forge in which
the gods made gems; but we more
practical minded moderns simply draw
the conclusion that some of the meteor
ties that fall upon the earth may pos.
sibly have been elected from its vol
canoes, or from the volcanoes of some
other planet, and have gone circling
through space until, meeting with the
earth, gravitation brought them down
again.-Youth's Companion.
