Russian Jewelry.

The kingdom which Peter the
Great founded presents greater con-
trasts of ant culture and barbarism
than any other nation within the
pale of civilization. While the world
rings with heartrending cries of a
people persecuted for the love of
their God, and millions of Russia's
peasantry cry aloud for bread and
rot by the wayside, her musicians,
poets, authors and painters invade
the wonderland of culture, carrying
all before them. The Centennial eX-
hibition made the American people
first aware of the value of Russian
art in the treatment of the precious
metals. 1t savors almost entirely of
the Byzantine period of the art
world; its workmanship is excessive
ly fine and forid, delighting in over
elaboration and detail; especially
strong, too, in the decoration of
church vestments, missals and re-
gala, which, as the Greek church is
so closely allied to the Catholic in the
elaborateness Of its pomps and cere-
monies, provide the jeweler with
many opportunities for the display
of his art workings H. p, Mawson

In Surrey county, N. c., there is a
mountain whose outline displays a
startling likeness to the Sphinx Of
Egypt. 1t is in the northwestern
part of the state, just east of the
Blue Ridge range, and lies prone
upon the Piedmont plains. At a dis
tance of ten miles the figure is the
exact counterpart Of that Of a gigan-
tic Iion, its body at right angles TO
the precipitous ridge, and with head
reared aloft as if in the act of rising.
The head and neck are Of solid rock,
several hundred feet in height, the
shoulders and breast which support
them being finely rounded off by ma
ture and seeming half buried in the
grass Of the surrounding meadows.
When looking at the figure, although
removed twenty-five miles distant
from it, the thought haunts one that
it must be a thing Of life and intelli-
gence. st. Louis Republic.
