The One Precious stone That Comes Near
est to Being FlawIess.
The Regent diamond, while surpassed
in size by tho Great Mogul and several
other well known stones, is really tho
finest of all, being nearly faultless in
form and purity and the most brilliant
diamond in the world today.
Its French history dates back to l717.
In that year it was purchased from its
English owner, for the French regalia,
by the Duke of Orleans, then regent of
France, whence its present name. 1t
had previously been known by a name
almost as famous.
In l7l7 French finances were in q
desperate strait. The people were starry
ing, tho treasury was nearly exhausted.
credit even was lost, yet under the per
suasiuns of the Scotch financier Law and
the French Duke of st. Simon the re-
gent of France, hcsitating where every
monarch of Europe had refused. finally
agreed to the price of $G15, 600.
Greatly to the relief of the duke, his
act appealed to the pride of tho French
people, and instead of condemnation for
his extravaganza he received their APP
plnuse In the light Of subsequent events
their approval has Il touch of the pro
phetic.
The first prominent appearance of the
diamond in the French rogalia was i'll
tho circlot Of the crown mado for the
coronation of the boy Louis XIV, i'll 1922.
After half II century it was again the
center of new crown, that which i'll
1875 weighed heavy on the head of the
young Louis XVI till he cried ont i'll

LiNCOLN'S LOVEMAKlNG.
Ar Encountered His Political Rival While
Addressing Miss Todd.

In 1899 Miss Mary Todd Of Kentucky
arrived in Springfield to visit a married
sister, Mrs. Edwards. At the instance
of his friend Speed, who was also
Kentuckian, Lincoln became visitor
ut the Edwards and before long it was
apparent to the observant among those
in Springfield that the lively young
lady held him captive. Engagements at
that time and in that neighborhood
were not announced as soon as they
were made, and it is not at all impossi
BILE that Miss Todd and Mr.. Lincoln
were betrothed many months before any
other than Mrs. Edwards and Mr.. Speed
knew Of it, writes John Gilmer Speed
III The Ladies Home Journal.
At this time, as was the case till
Lincoln was elected to the presidency.
his one special rival in Illinois was
Stephen A. Douglas. Mr.. Douglas had
more Of the social graces than Mr.. Lin
coin, and it appeared to him that moth
ing would be more interesting than to
cut out his political rival i'll the affec-
tons of the entertaining and lively
Miss Todd, and so he paid her court
A spirited young lady from Kentucky
at that time in Illinois would have
been almost less than human if she had
refused to accept the attentions Of the
two leading men of the locality. There
fore Miss Todd being quite human, en-
Outraged Douglas, and again there was
what nowadays would have been called
a Irritation. This course of action did
not spur Lincoln on in his devotion, but
made him less ardent. and he concluded,
after much self worriment, to break off
tho engagement, which he did, but ut
the same interview there We're "a recon-
citation and u renewal of the engage
ment.

Tho Army of Tramps.

There can be no doubt that the tramp
is in "a certain sense the maker and
chooscr of his own career. The writer 5
experience with these Migrants has con-
WINGED him that, though they arc almost
always the victims Of liquor and laZi-
ness, fully four titths of America s vol
untary bcggars have begun their wide
and restless ways while still i'll their
teens, and have been furthcrcd i'll their
wrong tendencies by unwiSe treatment
applied to them when young.
Year after year, even month after
month, trampdom Is increased by squads
of youths who will soon take and hold
tho places Of their elders, who will nat
urally drop away with tho years These
hoyish roadSters are more often illeglti'
mate than lawful children and conse-
quently proper subjects for state care
and guardianship. Aud the fact that
every tramp i'll tho United States has
spent some part of his youth in re-
form school or, worst of ALL i'll jails,
demonstrates that there is failure
somewhere III our system of correction
and reformation and makes it necessary
and only fair that the sociologst US
we'll as the refurmcr should know the
tramp from boyhood to manhood. SUI
perhcial and unsympathetic studies of
his character, with shallow theories
about remedial measures, have so far
failed sigually in checking his malign
