Horny Ward Beecher took pleasure IN
the wonderful oolors Of precious stones.
He cared for them not as Jewels. but ~
crystallised dewdrops and SPARKS Of nv-
ing fire. Ruskin, too, 10 said TO carry
diamonds loose in his pockets. just 90
that he may take them out and fia6h
them in the sunlight for his own delec-
tat; IN. And now the learned men have
discovered what women have known al
ways-that diamonds came down from
heaven, for no power on earth was great
enough to produce them. This 10 how
scientists claim to have found ont the
truth we knew fSAm the beginning. II
seems that in South Africa experts have
been puzzled finding in blue earth, the
natural bed Of the rough diamond, stones
which had been fractured, and il was
evident that no upheaval Of the soil
could have effected such result Then
the wise heads bethought themselves to
zee whether there were any traces If
diamonds in meteorio iron, and sure
enough such traces are said to have been
found. So now all the world is ready to
believe that there are really diamonds
in the sky. Speaking Of word pictures,
where is there one which could bring
the diamond more plainly into view
than this?

nary ingenuity. A large barrel has Q

drawn entirely through. Glass tubes are
fixed in the shelf as dir vents. The lower
edge Of the barrel is filled with holes
placed about six inches above the bot
tom, and siphon carries of the liquid
that aocumulates below this point. Di-
luted alcoholic liquor, slightly sweeten-
ed with honey or with extract Of malt,
is slowly dripred through the holes in
the shelf and runs through beechwood
shavings that have previously been steep
ed in good vinegar. The liquor, which
should be kept at temperature Of 76 to
85 degrees f., filters down through the
threads and over the .shavings to the
bottom Of the barrel, whence 1t runs
over through the siphon. After awhile
the temperature in the barrel rises to
about 100 degrees f., the chemical ac-
tion going on meanwhile. It Is neces-
sary to pour the liquor again and again
through the generator before it is salts

dozen filterings are usually sufficient,
though more are sometimes required.

There can be no question that very
many Of the differences, mental and
bodily, that exist between the aver
age Frenohman and the average Eng
lishman are caused by the distinct
methods Of education that prevail on
the different sides of the channel. You
would not like your sons only school
ing to be obtained in France. On the
other hand, you have a pretty distinct
belief that if French boys were sent
over here young enough and put to good
English schools, they would grow up
into very fair sort Of Britons. A typ
ical story Of the ways Of French school
boys, with their ushers, is reported in
recent morning papers. Some spirits
had been smuggled into one of the
dormitories thing, we fear, not al
together unknown in some English
establishments. It is even conceivable
that the English master who discovered
the bottle would have confiscated it to
his own use, but this would not have
been at the invitation Of his pupils.
But the French pion in question was
oontented to make one Of the party, and
as he was not so used to rum as his pu-
pills, he got SO terribly drunk that he
died. Happily for the French boys,
their compulsory military service gives
them an opportunity, later ON for learn
ing little discipline. Pail Mall Ga

A Model Citizan.

If anybody wants model for a citi-
zen Of the highest class, he may find it
in this eulogIbf Boston man, written
by friend who was worth having:
"Martin Brimmer. freed from private
care, dedicated himself to the common
veal; he took his part in legislation, in
charities, in education, in cultivation
of art. He mingled in all public affairs
mot only mingled, but led. Nature
had made him prepossessing. His dig
nifty, his deliberation. his reserve were
imposing. his gentle courtesy was win
ming, and when at last he uttered few
pregnant words in judicial tone the
majority Of his hearers fancied that he
was but expressing their sentiments,
while the mincSity decided that opposi-
tion was vain. The fusion was com.
plete."

Il has been asserted by some one that
every hnman being has . right 70 hap-
.pinoss. II thai 10 tho case, most Of us
miss It mightily---that's g alive have to
say. A good deal Of our failure to be
happy Is our own fault, but much Of IL
is updescrved and purely the fault Of
others. If we chose to stop and think.
we would soon see also how we in turn
inflict unhsppiness upon others in a
most uncalled for way.
When we find one of our friends in
an irritable mood, do we try 10 soothe
him or go away and let him alonep Not
by any means. We cast about in cur
minds to see what suggestions we can
make that will irritate him a trifie
more. This we do as wholesome les
son, we profess. We want to teach him
that there's no use in getting 80 cross
about trifles. And what are we that we
should set ourselves up as mentors to
teach anybody anything Let them
learn their own lessons from life. That
is better teacher than we could possi-
bly, be.
Half the unhappiness that comes into
children's lives--nay, three-fourtbs, we
may say-arises from the unkind teas
ing and irritation of those older-even
their adult relatives. "Oh, Mary's SO
cross % they say, and then they proceed
to make her crosser if possible by every
petty aggravation they can think Of.
This should be classed under the head
of cruelty to children, we think. Phil

N.vada's Gold Output.

An estimate gathered from the
Well & Fargo agencies and the mint
receipts show that the output of prec,
ious metals for the year will be in
the neighborhood of four millions,
which is half million larger than the
output fer '94, says the Appeal. Much
of the output of Nevada's gold mines
is NOT recorded in this State, but goes
to the Selby smelling works. Some
10 taken over the mountains by wagon
transportation and does not even go
through the express Office.
The U. S. mint at Carson has al
ways been in bad odor with deposit
tors, as they did not get the returns
called for by their assays, and fer
this reason great deal of the gold
output is sent to San Francisco and
sold to private firms and cannot be
computed for public information. The
mint investigations show that deposi-
tors have been Systematically robbed
and the mining men are watching the
result of the investigation with great
interest.

FOSTERS FORECAST.
The Kind of We atherW arc Going
To Have.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-. Jan, MY last
bulletin gave forecasts of the storm
waves to cross the continent from
January 9Th to 18th.
The next disturbance will reach the
Pacific Coast about the 18th, cross the
Western mountain country by the close
of the 18th, the Great Central Valleys
10 to 18th and the Eastern States the
18th.
Accompanying this disturbance will
be large amount of precipitation and
Immediately folio ing it the coolest
part of the month.
Warm wave will cross the west of
Rockies country about the 18th, great
central valleys 10Th, Eastern States
18th.
Cool wave will cross the west of
Rockies bt ut the 10th, the great CEN
trail valleys l8, and Eastern States
goth.
The cold wave following this distur-
bance will increase in severity as it
moves eastward and will be most
severe III the Atlantic States about the
goth.
Months ago these bulletins contain
ed an important forecast to the effect
that rain and snow would largely in
crease over the United States before
the close of December. 1t was also
stated that our atmosphere was great
ly ex, anded from the effects of ex-
cessive and lcng evaporation and long
evaporation and would collapse by
precipitation by the beginning of
1896.
apply the laws of magnetism to
the position of the planets and the
reason for this important and success
full forecast will be readily seen, as
also the the causes for the April and
