dad, with his wonderful magnetic power.
He cures all diseases by the laying on of
the hands. Many people who have been
sick and crippled for years have been
carried to him on beds and chairs and
walked away after one or two magnetic
treatments. The fact remains that this
power of healing by the laying on of
hands. is a power with which but few
men are gifted and probably no one liv-

LOST FOR 1000 YEARS.
A Great Find of the Highly Pri.ed
Theasalinn Marble.

Great Find of the Highly Pri.ed
Thessnlinn Marble.
From the PhIladelpria Record.
The quarries from which the ancients
obtained their highly priced Thessalian or
verd marble have been discovered. and are
again being worked by English COM
pany. The quarries, which have been lost
for more than 1000 years, are in the neigh
borhood Of Larlssa in Thssssly. Greece.
The ancient workings are very extensive,
there being no fewer than ten Qu6riies,
each producing somewhat different de-
script1on Of marble, proving without a
doubt that every variety of this marble
found in the ruined palaces and churches
of Rome and Constantinople, and likewise
In all the mosques and MUSEUMS Of the
world. came originally from these quarries.
In fact, the very quarry from which the
famous monoliths of St. Sophia. Constanti-
nople, were obtained can be identified with
absolute certainty by the matrices from
which they were extracted.
In modern times verd antico marble has
only been obtainable by the destruction of
some ancient work, and it has, naturally,
commanded extraordinarily high prices. As
consequence, number of ordinary mod
ern greens of Greek, French, Italian and
American origin have been described and
sold as verd antique marble. No one how
ever, who is really acquainted with the DIS
tinctiye character of the genuine material
could be deceived by these inferior marbles.
Thessalian green is easily distinguished
from any other green marble by the fol-
lowing characteristics: 1t is 'breccla"
of angular fragments of light and dark
green, with pure statuary white, the whole
being cemented together with a brighter
green, while the snow white patches usu-
ally have their edges tinted of with a
delicate fbrous green. radiating to the CEN
ter Of the white. The cementing material
is also Of the same fibrous structure
