THE COLOR OF GOLD.

1t Varies According to the Part of the
World the Metal Was Taken From.
Most people suppose" says an as
sayer, that all gold is alike wht re-
fined, but this is not the case. An ex-
perienced man can tell at glance from
what part of the world gold piece
comes, and in some cases from what
part of u particular gold district the
metal w. obtained
''The Australian gold, for instance, is
distinctly redder than the Californian.
and this difference in color is always
perceptible, even when the gold is one
thousand fine.
''Agaln, the gold obtained from the
placers is yellower than that which
is taken directly from quartz. Why
this should be the case is one of tn
mysteries of metallurgy, for the placer
gold comes from the veins. The Ural
gold is the reddest found anywhere
Few people know the real color of
gold, as it is seldom seen unless heavily
alleged, which renders it redder than
when pure.
''The purest coins ever made were
the fifty pieces that used to b.
common in California. Their coinag,
vas abandoned for two reasons-frst
because the loss by abrasion was S,
great. and secondly, because the in
terror could be bored out and lead sub

young daughter read for him. Though
crippled in the arms by blow from a
cruel Maryland overseer Henson was q
faithful and efficient slave and earned
five hundred dollars, which he gave up
as part payment for his liberty. His
masters son took him to New Orleans
to sell him at auction but was stricken
with yellow fever and would probably
have died had not Henson nursed him
and accompanied him back to Ken
lucky. Seeing that he would sooner or
later be taken to the far south again he
determined to make his escape. He
took his wife and two children and
made his way through swamps and for
ests to Cincinnati, where he had friends
of his own color who concealed him.
Then he slowly traversed the state Il
OHIO, which at that time was almost q
wilderness, until he came to Sandusky.
There q kind-hearted captain Of q
schooner took him and his family aboard
and conveyed them to the Canadian
shore, where they were safe from pur-

Stowe and told her his story, which she
incorporated in part in her immortal
work. He died about ten years ago.

Says an amateur in astronomy: Zone
of the most startling facts that / have
learned about other worlds than ours,
and one that brings the immensely of
the sun before the mind in an impress
sively practical way, is this: That if
the earth were placed at the center of
the sun, and the moon should retain
the same relative position it now has.
the distance from the earth to the moon
would be only a little more than half
the distance from the center of the sun
to its circumference; that is, the entire
orbit Of the moon, $50, 600 miles in sdi-
ameter, is not much more than half the
size of the sun, which is over $50, Oc0
miles in diameter. II seems to me that

THE OLD HEARTHsToNE.

We gather round the old nearthstone,
Without Is heard the north winds moan,
Within all is delight,
While 'gainst the pane the whispering rain
Speaks Of starless night
We sing the songs we used to sing,
When youth was ours and pleasure king,
Nor heed the angry storm,
For kindly cheer makes bright the sphere
OF home where hearts are warm
Stories are told Of that dear time
When life flowed on like smoothest rhyme,
In the far long ago;
When castles rare were built in air,
To melt away like snow.
Grandfather and grandmother tell
OF olden days, when loves sweet spell
Their hearts together drew:
When hope was bright with tenderest light,
And sorrows were but few.
Good Uncle. John, just home from sea,
Tells Of far distant lands, while We
Drink in his honeyed words:
AS sweet they are, as sweet and far,
AS sweetest songs of birds
And thus with story, laugh and song,
We pass the stormy night and long,
Our hearts all free from care;
Thank Heaven for this: Tonight there Is
At home no vacant chair.

The COLLECTING MANIA.
Fads q Young Ladies' for Accommodating

Eads OF Young Ladies' for Accommodating
Odd Articles.
most violent fad is that of coll
Letting collecting no matter what. SO
long as q collections is made. Fans,
china, gloves, Shoes; watches, gems
and SO on nd nauseam. 1 heard q man
say the other day to q young woman,
= wish wish knew something to collect
CHINA, suggested madame. And the
dear fellow went Immediately to work
sbuying china cups and plates pitchers.
One girl know announced some time
ago that she was collecting plates for
harlequin dessert set, and that contri-
putlons would be gratefully received.
Her friends found it an easy way to
pay her compliment, and at the pres
ent time her collection numbers one
hundred and nineteen. The young
woman would fain have stopped long
ago, but the word had gone forth, and
her last condition is worse than her
hrst. and her faith will probably be to
lie buried meath these bits of china, as
did the Indian maid who had betrayed
her fathers city beneath the gold and
jewels the invaders heaped upon her.
Another girl is collecting vinai-
grettes. She has seventy-nine at last
counting, and is still at it. These are
q few of the least hurtful fads There
are others, many of them not so harm
less; and think what might be accom-
pllshed if half the time and energy ex-
pended on this one fad of collecting
were devoted to some even fairly use
ful purpose! A fad is pretty sure to be
not in the best taste. It argues de-
parture from esta blished form, and usu-
ally in matters where custom, necessity
and-circumstance have chosen the best
method for establishment. The reac-
ton is sure to come, and after the I'M
tasteful prodigality perhaps simplicity
will obtain, When we tire of the or
