100000 Pounds for a Sing

100000 Pounds for a Single Pearl.
The largest price ever asked and paid
for a single pearl was 9110,000, which
was the value Of the great Tavernier
pearl. 1t was originally in the pos
session Of an Arabian merchant, and
Monsieur Tavernier travelled from Par
is to Catifa with the express intention
Of purchasing the pearl.
Although he went prepared to pay
any sum between $1,000 and 100000,
he concluded that he would be able to
obtain 1t for about G25,oOO. His first
offer was 10000, but after the deal
had remained open for a few days this
had risen to f75,OO0. Finally the trans
action was closed with G110,00O, and
pearl experts state that it is a clear
bargain at that price. 1t is the largest
and most perfect gem of its kind
known, and its luster is said to be I'M
rivaled. 1t is exactly two inches in
length and oval-shaped.

any sacrifice by gaining time for more
troops to come up. The general in

Auerswald, the senior Of the two conf
manders, and told him to advance
against the French.

you do not mean me to attack the
whole French army?"
Il am serious; I bring you positive
orders to do So"
Auerswald bowed and, sending for the
young prince Of Hohenzollern, ordered
him Immediately to ride on the field.
The young man said: II have done
nothing to deserve this" and burst in
to tears. Auerswald replied: your
family has suffered quite enough.

One of the most ingenious as well as
useful contrivances ever invented is
clock with attachments that not only
wake a person at night, but also strike
light in the room and kindle fire.
If a person wants to get up at $3.50
O'Clock in the morning, all that is nee
essary is to set the alarm on the clock
for that hour and adjust the light and
fire attachments. Promptly at $3.50
the alarm will awake the sleeper, light
a candle that is attached and kindle a
fire in the CRATE. The clock works
perfectly, and Mr.. Hunt has already
