Eeonfrm this statement. Take one
[of the most conspicuous of late

Epossessed in an eminent degree.

Will we jealously guard this in

Shall we neglect the foundations

No. mol By Gods help we will
hand it down to our schildren's

Book. 1t is a Puritan production

maligned word. Everything good
in our institutions we owe to this
blessed volume. Wherever itgoes
there Democracy reigns. Tyrants
and autocrats fall before it. Peace
full and happy republics cannot
exist without it. Wherever it
goes there only do we find free
institutions supported by free
men. Make the New Testament

will we have a government of the
people, by the people, and for the

Glas. and pa.te plamond..

Of late years paste diamonds, imita- tion diamonds, quartz diamonds and glass diamonds have been placed upon the market in quantities. and it is difficult to distinguish many of these from the genuine articles. They are cut in the most approved style, and a good quartz diamond, cut in the shape of brilliant, makes very effect i've show. Its value, however, is less than one-twentieth of that of diamond of similar size and shape. {
 Glass cut in prism shape will illustrate the value of angles in any transparent body, and glass diamonds can often be cut so that they resemble greatly the pure water gems. Fine. large diamonds are so very expensive that many wealthy people prefer to wear limitations on gen. eral occasions and leave the genuine stones for only cry important and special<imes. Sorge E.
