TRAVELS OF A DIAMOND.

l
Story q . Paris Jswslas's Experience with
Very F1ne Stone.
Some years ago Paris jeweler told q
story Of one diamond which had passed
over his counter no less than ii times.
It was beautiful stone Of nearly four
/ cafats, Of perfect color and luster, but
easily identified by means OF a small
"festher" in the tip Of the lowest part.
He bought it from an East India dealer
and had it set in . ring. II was sold to Il
countess in 1869, just before the out
break of the Franco-Prussian war. The
countess died in few weeks, and the
ring was worn by her husband. He was
killed in the siege of Paris, and few
days after his death the ring was
brought in the ring and sold it to the
mon soldier. He was arrested, and the
ring was sent to the family of the dead
count. Before the siege ended they
brought in the ding and sold it to the
dealer In order to procure money to
buy food. Directly after the siege it
passed into the hands of an English
tourist who visited the city to get
look at the ruin wrought by the COM
munists. and year later back came the
stone from the Indian buyer of the firm,
who, on being written to and desired to
tell how he got 1t. stated that it had
been the property Of an English tourist
hunter who was killed by a tiger, and
his friends sold the ring to get means to
send the body home. The stone was re-
set, and soon found purchaser in
prominent member of the demi-monde,
who not long afterward was murdered
in her room. Among the articles taken
by the murderer was the ring, and the
firm began to wonder how soon it would
turn up. They had not long to wait, for
all their people had by this time learned
about the stone, and were on the look
out tor it. After six months it was found
in the showcase of a jeweler in London,
who had bought it from q firm in
Amaterdam. It was bought by the
Paris agent, and sent back to be started
afresh on it's travels. It was purchased
again by a woman of the town, who, six
weeks later, was drawn out of the Seine
with the gem on her finger, and. by
strange coincidence. it was offered to
the frm that sold it by the police agents,
the court having jurisdiction having
ordered it to be sold. And so it went
from hand to hand, attended with mis-
fortune at every change and usually
bringing death to the possessor. La
borers in the Golconda mines used to
cay that when stone was baptized in
blood when first taken from the earth
It caused the shedding OF blood where
ever it went, and the story Of one
such ill-omened gem goes far to confirm
belief in such Observation-Disclosures

the truth IL it - the good, old-fash-
toned winter the .seasonable tempera-
ture,' that kills. The incorrectness Of
the popular idea is we'll shown by the
vital statistics for the first quarters Of
1895 and 1896 in England and Wales,
which we find summarized in the Brit
ish Medical Journal of May 16. These
two periods Of time formed greet con-
trast in 20 far as the general tempera-
ture of the air was concerned. In the
former year the mean temperature OF
three months was 35.2 degrees Fahren-
heit, which was 81 degrees Fahrenheit
below the average, while in February
it was no less than 80 degrees Fahren-
heit below the mean of that month.
In 1896 the temperature of the three
months was 42.3 degrees Fahrenheit, or
3.4 degrees Fahrenheit above the aver
age. The public health fully reflected
those noteworthy differences in tenn
perature. In 1895 the deaths in the
first quarter amounted to 170,501 and
the death rate was 22.8, or IL above
the average. In 1896 the deaths in the
corresponding period numbered 1885,
800, ld were in the proportion of 17.o
deaths annually per 1000 persons liy-
ing, which rate was 3.9 below the aver
age. The increased mortality in 1895
was chiefly among persons aged 60
years and upward, of whom 6O,454
died. giving death rate among such
persons of 1890, or 1874 in excess of the
mean. In 1896 32,20e persons aged 60
and upward died in January, February
and March, and the death rate was 60.2,
no less than 26.2 below the average.
These statistics furnish the fresh evil
dence OF the killing power of frost and
of the beneficcnt influence of mild
But popular beliefs are
not to be overthrown by statistics, and
If we are blessed next winter by a mild
temperature and absence of snow there
will be plenty of physicians whose sur

THE SUN CURE.

Here Il . German Doctor Who Cempeaa
Patients to Go Naked.
Righton the heels of the kneipp cure,
which obliges people to wall. On the
grass in their bare feet and osxrp'y
water to the skin in other disaKreeable
ways, comes still more extraordinary
"cure," which robs man Of all his
clothes and sends him walking about
absolutely naked. This return to .
primitive nudity is prescribed by .
German physician and put into r,ac-
tice in his sanitarium, in the mountains
Of carniola, near Trieste. There he
gives his patients sun baths on huge
scale.
The treatment consists in exposing
the patient entirely nude to the rays of
the s,n. But the patient must not
alone bask in the rays of the sun. He
is obliged to walk about naked in the
open air, to indulge in exercises, take
his meals, and mingle with his friends
thus disrobed. The patient must go
naked in all weathers, nothing inlst
stop him.
Neither rain, wind nor snow will be
accepted by this German doctor as an
excuse for allowing his patients to PUT
on their clothes. Only the local Pc 'ice-
men have succeeded in making the pa
tients return to the ways Of civil;xa-
ton.
A sanitarium has been built OH an
elevation of $500 feet, in very suLry
spot; large park has been separated
into two parts by : high wall, and the
two sexes are separated, each to hfs

CONSULTING THE CLOCK.

at night, If near it il located light
strong enough to illuminate its face and
show the time. A policeman told a
Mail and Express reporter. the other
day that q good clock, thus situated, is
better than q private watchman for q
jewelry store, as every belated passer-
by Is likely to look through the store to
see what time it is, and would be al
most certain to notice anything un-
usual in the appearance Of the place. It
therefore becomes Indirectly silent
watchman guarding the premises
against the depredations Of burglars,
and makes the pedestrians, 40 it were,
assistants in the work.
Church clocks have always had
large number Of patrons in the work of
consultation, and nothing seems to be
so annoying as to find such clock in
active. When an event of this character
occurs, especially if the church is To-
Gated on or near busy thoroughfare,
the fact of the cl6ck being stopped, or
that some defect appears to exist. is
often made the subject of a notice in
the daily papers. Especially was this
the case when the steeple Of old ST.
Paurs was recently undergoing reno
vation, and it was joy to many on
noticing that the newly gilded hands Of
the clock were again travelling along
their accustomed circuit, and the deep
toned bell was ready to strike the hour
