An old shoe containing six diamond
rings and brooch set with diamonds,
valued in all at 500. was given away.
with its mate. to n poorly dressed young
man u few days ago. and now the Ger
mantown police are looking for the
man. the shoe and its contents. Mrs
Walter Leonard of Germantown was
called to the door by tramp. who ask
cd for pair Of old shoes or some dis
carded mems clothing. She told the
man to return later. when her husband
would be home. The visitor called at
the time set, and Mr.. Leonard went to
one of the upper rooms and took from
one Of the closets two pairs Of trousers
and two pairs of shoes and gave them
to the visitor.
About a half hour later il dawned
upon Mrs. Leonard that she had placed
q portion of her jewelry in an old shoe
belonging to her husband. and she went
up stairs to ascertain if he had given
the shoe away. She looked in the closet
and found the shoe had disappeared.
Her husband started in pursuit Of the
man, but was unable to find him. The
jewelry had long been in the possession
of the family. The Leonards are said to
have had some experience with burglars
and had adopted this plan Of checkmat
ing them. m.-Philadelphia Ledger.

that those bright ones ever tOlled! Yes,
yes! These packed the Chinese teaboxes.
and through missionary instruction es-
capped into glory. These sweltered on
southern plantations, and one night
after the cotton picking went up rs
white as if they had never beer black.
Those died of overtoil i'll the Lowell
carpet factories. and these in Manchcs-
ter mills. Those helped build the pyra-
mids, and these broke away from work
on the day Christ was bounded out of
Jerusalem. No more towers tn build;

weave; the robes are finished. No more
harvests to raise: the garners are full.

A Glorious Consolation.
Oh, We whose locks are wet with the
dews Of the night of grief: we whose
hearts are heavy because those we'll
known footsteps sound no more at the
doorway. yonder is your rest! There is
David triumphant. but once he bcmoaned
Absalom. There is Abraham enthroned.
but once he wept for Sarah. There is
Paul cxultant, but he once sat with his
feet in the stocks. There is Payson ra-
diant with immortal health. but OH

from the cathedral towers. No dirge
throbbing from seraphic harps. No
tremor in the everlasting song. but rest
perfect rest-unen6ing rest.
Into that rest how many of our loved
ones have gone! The little children
have been gathered up into the bosom of
Christ. One of them went out Of the
arms of a widowed mother. following
its father. who died few weeks before.
In its last moment it seemed to see the

The Destructive Jaclxdiaw.

In a gentleman's park in the county
of Durham, says an English writer. a
number of pheasants are reared every
year. The keeper. on going to feed
them. was surprised to find the bodies
of four of the young pheasants lying on
the grass outside of the coops without
heads He made careful search for ver-
min, such as rats or wcazels, but with
out effect. He left the dead pheasants
for awhile. and ON his return found n
considerable number more disposed of
in the same way. He was quite puzzled
and resolved to seek assistance. Fully
90 young ones were disposed of. all in
the same way. After watching q con-
siderable time pair Of jackdaws made
their appearance and were not long in
commencing their raid ON the young
ones again. They quietly dragged them
ont from below the hens and pulled
their heads off and carried them to q
clump of trees. where they had their
nest with Young ones. and fed them with
the heads. As soon as the keeper was
satisfied that the jackdaws were the de-
InQucnts he shot them.
