Diamonds and Cutlery.

Uncut diamonds are comparatively
cheap when purchased in London, the
great precious stone market of the world,
but by the time the American duty has
been paid on them and they have been
cut to brilliants by three or four days of
work-and it never takes Lesson the
part of the lapidary they have more than
doubled in value. Occasionally rough
diamonds are split in the wrong direction
in cleaving and valuable stones are thus
entirely lost. 1t is measure Of skill on
the part of the lapidary to be able to tell
by a close inspection of the rough stone
just how it will cleave. Pieces of dia-
monds which are broken off are ground
into powder with a hammer and the
dust is poured into an iron receptacle par
italy filled with oil.
An expert diamond cutter receives from
$40 to $25 week, but his work is so con-
filming and he is required to bend his body
so much that he is usually carried off at a
comparatively early age with consump-
tion.-Chicago Record.

1t will be noticed that James Lick gave
nothing for mere charity. He did not be-
licve in relieving any human being able to
work from the necessity of earning his
bread. Lick gave to science and educa-
tional improvement, to public necessity
and to art He did not seek to set up ri
val to any existing state institution. He
did not duplicate anything. What he
sought were new avenues by which mans
kind might be benefited without injury
to themselves or posterity. The only elee-
mosynary institution which he founded
was the Home For Old Ladies. For that
blessings will be showered on his name
through the long centuries.
His great telescope on Mount Hamilton
has already made the retiring miller of the
early days a name and fame as wide as the
civilized world. The human sentiment
appeared in honor of his liberal endow-
ment of the pioneers. The Academy of
Natural Sciences early attracted his atten-
ton as an institution from which great
things might be expected, and it shared
literally in his benefactions. No man
could have given more literally, for he
gave all that he had. The deep love of hui
manity which is apparent in all secures
for him place among the benefactors OF
mankind second to none.-San Francisco

A Valuable Book.

1t is not generally known, but it is {
fact recognized by physicians, that, a
very large majority of the diseases Of
mankind begin with irritation and in
fammation in that part of the body which
becomes affected by the disease. Inflam
nation is an unhealthy condition of the
tissues, manifested externally by heat, red
ness and swelling internally by conges
ton of the blood vessels, causing pain,
disease and growth of unsound tissue. II
is very important that every person should
understand the nature and home treat
ment of inflammations For this purpose,
/. S. johnson & Co., % Custom House
St, Boston, Mass, have had compiled
from the highest medical authorities, ar
ranged in alphabetical order and pub
lished in an illustrated book, entitled,
" Treatment for Diseases, description
of all ailments caused by, or accompanied
with inflammation also the treatment for
such. The book is printed in plain, sim
pie language, strictly for family use. 1t
is valuable and complete treatise which
every one should have for ready reference.
The publishers as above. will send one

Invariably Actuated by Honest and Right Mo-
tiVeS.
Camden Herald.

Secretary of State Nicholas Fessender
in reply to circular letter of the Lake
side Press to the members of the Legisla-
ture in which the press accuses him of
saying concerning the State printing,
that "no concern, even were they located
in Augusta, can do this work but Bur
leigh & Flynt," talks right out aloud and
doesn't hesitate to say that the statement
in the Lakeside letter is "a lie" He
then goes on and explains his position
upon the question of the State printing
in a manner that ought to be satisfactory
to all who don't know him, for those who
do know him need no explanation, for
they are aware that while "Nicky" al
ways has the courage of his convictions
and says just what he thinks, and doesn I
hesitate to strike right out from the
shoulder, (fguratiyely speaking) when
he deems it necessary still he is invari-
ably actuated by honest and right motives,
and is pretty apt to be about right in
what he says and does, as well.

Opening Court With Prayer,

One of the learned justices of the Maine
supreme court, than whom no man better
knows how to appreciate a really amusing
thing, was holding court at Ellsworth,
and, according to honored custom, called
in local clergyman to open the session
with supplication to heaven. This
worthy gentleman came, and after a chat
with the justice proceeded TO address the
giver of all good and perfect things thus:
Almighty God, we beseech thee to be-
stow upon the presiding justice tho wis
dom which he SO greatly needs!' 1t is
said that the same judge once opened
court after prayer which began this way:
20 Lord, we pray thee to override the
decisions of the court, to thine own honor
and glory. "-Eangor Commercial.

Already it is said that the ministry OF
Lord Rosebery is nearing its fall. 1t is
less than a year since he succeeded Mr..
Gladstone in the British premiership.
Archibald Philip Primrose, Earl of Rose
berry, is now about As years of age, and
has held the earldom since 1868. 1t was
at the opening of Parliament in 1871 that
he made his first public speech and since
that time he has been prominent in Brit
ish politics. He was president of the Soc
ial science congress of 1874 and was made
lord rector of Edinburg University in
1850. Mr. Gladstone, from Lord Rose
berys first appearance in public life re-
garded him as possessed of extraordinary
ability, and in 1886 he appointed him Sec
rotary of state for foreign affairs. He
resigned the portfolio to accept the chair
manship of the London county council.
He was foreign secretary of the cabinet
when called to the premiership.

THE BORE AT MONCTON.
A Curious Tidal Wave That Might Pose a
Miniature Niagara.

Miniature Niagara.
We had long known that that curious
freak of the Fundy tides the ''bore" or
tidal wave, appears at Moncton, n. B.
and at Moncton only-with every tide,
twice a day. AS we stepped upon the
wharf one of us said to the other, "See,
there comes the bore!" And there it was
three miles away, beyond the bend across
which we were looking, a long, white
level streak, cutting across the river from
bank to bank.
Sighting by houses and trees along the
shore, we could measure how swiftly 1t
approached, and in very few minutes it
needed no such help to see that it came
rolling on with the speed of a railway
train. showing the low, tumbling outline
of broken roller on the beach. Nearer
and nearer, with sharp, Kissing roar, we
almost held our breath, waiting for the
moment when it should pass beneath our
feet. Ten minutes from the time we first
saw it the moment came.
Looking down upon it, what we saw was
a head of water, as though from broken
dam, stretching straight across the chan
mel, and rolling, tumbling, foaming as it
raced along, just as great breaker races
up the beach after it's fall. Before it the
surface of the river was low, quiet, rip
ping gently downward toward the sea.
Behind the water level was nearly
three feet higher and coursing up from
the sea with the speed and fury Of mini
aturo Niagara gorge. At the sides the
foam was brown with mud torn from the
banks, and all the plunging current that
came after was turbid and dark.

day began in quiet way during Wasn-
ington's lifetime. As early as 1883 wheh
the wal was over, but before the treaty OF
neace was signed, some gentlemen met to-
cether to celebrate it, and during his pres
idency the day was observed by members
of congress and others who paid their re-
spects to him, and the observance o. the
day became more and more general, es-
pecially after Washington's death.
