successful is we'll known. One m
fact which cast odium upon tho day wac
that it was generally chosen in this
country for the execution Of murdcrcrs.
Owing principally to the efforts of the
Thirteen Club the execution day has been
changed or varied in all States OF thc
Union and this has, to great extent,
frightened the day.
A superstition attaches to every prc.
cious stone. Twelve of these have beca
selected as birthstones and applied to the
twelve calendar months of the year.
They arc very prettily described in the
following verses:
JANUARY.

No gem save garnet should be worn.
They Will insure her constancy,
True friendship and fidelity.
FEBRUARY.

MARCH.

In March first opsn, shall be wis,
In days OF peril. irn AMI bravs,
And wear a bloc 1stone to their grava.
APRIL.
She who from April dates her years,
Diamonds shall wear, lest bitter tears
For vain repentance How; this stons
Emblem of innocence is known.

For these latter, worn aud otherwise
useless lamp and hoor cloths arc desira.
BILE. When these cloths are of little
value for their legitimate purpose, they
should be thrown into dish OF strong
soda water and boiled for half an hour,
when they may be rinscd and put up to
dry. They are then useful for rubbing
the stove, the hearth or the grates, after
which they may still do service in kim
ding tho fire.
The good housekeeper rarely finds it
necessary to throw anything away. Her
economy, however, consists largely in
starting right and making one article do

may be first used as window cloths, then

Instead Of this, we often see tho hearth

Hidden Treasure.
Yours Truly,
J. 81. MACMILLAN.

Bridgeport, Conn, April l5.-The
late Captain Curtis, it is alleged, over
three years ago buried about $50, 900
in his yard and secreted $4,000 in
the house, all in gold coin. lie pro-
missed to reveal the hiding place of
both sums before he died. A month
before the fatal termination Of his
sickness he suddenly went ma and
died without making his secret
known.
4 remarkable part Of he story is
the part played in it by the dead
mans sister, Sarah Curtis. She IS
over 81 years old and came from
Southbury, Conn, to nurse him DUR
ing his sickness. 1t is supposed that
she wormed part of the secret from
the sick man in an interval of lucid
ity and followed up the clew. At
any rate, she left abruptly after his
death and is now missing. 4 thor
ough search of the premises failed
to reveal any hidden money.

Mrs. w. j, Florence.

No one who has ever seen Mrs.
Florence in her great impersonation
of Mrs. Gen. Gilfcry will ever
forget that unique piece of acting.
1t is an odd circumstance that the
gentleman who is now her husband
was a great friend of the late Billy
Florence and whenever Billy was
sick. acted in his place. Well the
two began acting and looking SO
much alike that she could hardly tell
them apart and the up shot of the
matter was that after Billy Florence
died his widow did a very sensible
thing by marrying his understudy.
