The birth Of the Opal.

There is beautiful little story told
about the opal, that delicate stone which
you have no doubt seen in rings and
bracelets The story is that the opal
was long ago promised to anybody who
could discover it. 1t lay hidden away.
so the old fortune tellels used to say, at
the place ''where the sunlight and the
moonlight joined" each other, and who
ever could find that spot would be re-
warded by a quantity of large. beautiful
opals. After long search for the place
''where the sunlight and moonlight
joined each other, the place was found
by Spanish traveller, who followed up
the rays of the setting sun, and when he
had reached the end of the last ray he
waited until the moonbeams shone upon
the earth, and there he found the opals.
They are said to be very lucky stones
for those who are born in the fall of the
year and very unlucky for those born in
the spring. OF course it is only say
ing that these are lucky or unluclxy, but
the rest of the story is true, as you will
believe if you look in the heart of an
opal and see the pink tints of the sun
and the blue rays of the moon nesting in
the middle of it.-Cincinnati Enquirer.

Trees In Japan Sacred to the Gods.

Near every temple in Japan are GER
tain trees which are supposed to be pc
culiarly loved by the gods and to be sa-
cred to them. Any one injuring or caus-
ing to be injured one of them will bring
down the wrath of the ''kami" or god
whose particular property it is. If the
trees be injured in the name of any one,
the kami avenges himself on that person
instead. So when girl finds that a
swain's love has cooled, and she thinks
revenge would be sweet, she makes a
straw manilcin and calls it by his name.
If she is very vengeful, she may also
make one of her hated rival. At 2
o'clock at night Called the hour of the
bully she rises, and clad in awhite night
dress only, with high clogs on her feet,
her hair hanging loose and crowned
with an iron tripod, on which three
lighted candles aro stuck, she proceeds
to the shrine Of the patron god of the
family.-San Francisco Chronicle.
