Says Diamonds Have SEX.

Did you ever know that there was
sex in jewels?" asked Paris jeweler.
as he picked up a beautiful white
stone of about two carats. Here Is
a curiosity" and under a strong mag
nifying glass he pointed out group
of five or six tiny diamonds clustered
about the edge of the stone, but I'M
perceivable without the lens. 1.-THE
male gem never gathers these little
buds" the jeweler continued. This
Is called the female, or multiplying
diamond. And the female stone is not
only more brilliant. but Of greater size
and less prone to be fiawed. The larg-
est and best known diamonds in his
tory and collections are all female
jewels. Strange. isn't it?"-New York

Last Thursday was "a beautiful Thanks
giving Day, and the happy occasion was
celebrated in a very appropriate manner

from cioudless sky, the atmosphere
was brisk and cheering, and all Nature
seemed 10 accord with the day.
The banks, postoifice and nearly all of
the business houses and factories closed
down, services of praise and thanks
giving " ere held in the churches, and
the hand of Charity sought for those
who were needy and suffering and be-
slowed upon them comforts of life
In the morning at IL O'Clock services
were conducted in the First Baptist,
First Presbyterian and st. Pet s
churches, and in the evening at 1880
O'Clock at the South Columbia Meho-
dist Church. They were indeed ser.
vices of thanksgiving, and all hear g
seemed filled with love and appreciation
for the tender mercy and loving kind
ness of a benefcent Providence.
The Kings Daughters received nu
merous contributions OF food, money
and clothing from various sources, and
many were made to feel happy by the
dispensations of Sweet tharity."
This, the last Thanksgiving Day of
the century, had much to make i! very
impressive one for the people Of [ olum
bia, and it will long be remembered by
them,

Pity,

Beauty

The most beautiful thing in
the world is the baby, all
dimples and JOY. The most
pitiful thing is that same baby,
thin and in pain. And the
mother does not know that a
little fat makes all the differ
ence.
Dimples and JOY have gone,
and left holloMs and fear; the
fat, that was comfort and
color and curve--all but pity
and love--is gone.
The little one gets no fat
from her food. There is some
thing wrong;itis either her food
or food-mill. She has had no
fat for weeks; is living on what
she had stored in that plump
little body of hers; and that is
gone. She is starving for fat;
it is death, be quick!

Liver Oil is the fat she can
take; it will save her.
