Salary OF President.

Laddonia, Mo-, Dec. &c R
H"-Whats salary does the President
of the United States receive a year.
Does. he get anything from any
other source, as a President? There
is quite a dispute in this village
about the matter. Some claim all
that he receives is his salary, others
that he has perquisites aside from
it. Please put an old subscriber
right IN the subject.
In addition to his salary of $780,
900 he is given $36, O64 to pay the
salaries of his subordinates and
clerks. Besides this there is given
him 5000 for incidental expenses,
such as stationery, carpets, and the
care of the presidential stables.
$4,000 more also given him for
various purposes, such as repairs,
and refurnishing the White House,
fuel, greenhouse, gas, matches, etc.
The White House, all told, costs
the country in connection with the
President over $125, 900 yearly.

A Singular Fact About Gems.

1t is a most singular fact that the
most precious gems are composed
of the most common substances.
The diamond is the purest form of
carbon and is identical in compost
ton with ordinary charcoal without
the impurities of the latter. The ruby,
on the other hand, is nearly pure
alumina, a substance found in pro-
fusion in every clay bank. The
scientific names for crystalized alum
MIA is corundum, and the gems
comp rehended under this designa-
ton are sometimes more valuable
than diamonds of the same weight.
The ruby, the sapphire, the oriental
emerald, the oriental topaz, the
oriental amethyst, the oriental aqua
marine, the oriental chrysolite, the
hyacinth, and other precious stones
are all alumina, the varieties of color
being caused by inappreciable guam
titles of metallic oxides,
