ColOred Diamonds.

The mention of diamonds makes
everyone think of a white gem, says
Answers; but not all diamonds are
white. The most beautiful of all pre-
cious stones is the red diamond, which
surpasses the ruby in beauty
Dark blue diamonds, differing only
from sapphires in quality and in the
beautiful play Of colors peculiar to the
diamond, are handsome gems. Black
and rose colored diamonds are also
rare. while the green varieties are not
SO uncommon The grass-green is
scarce, and, when it does occur, is more
brilliant than the finest emerald.
There are several varieties of green
tinted diamonds at the l4useum of Nat
ural History at Paris, but the best
known specimen is at Dresden.
The most perfect collection of dia-
monds is in the Museum of Vienna, and
is in the form of bouquet, the differ
ent flowers being composed of dia
monds of the same color as the blooms
represented. These stones were col
lcctei by one Virgil Won Helmricher,
Tyrolese. who had passed many
years among the diamond mines.

A Scotch Popularity.

Here and there among the papers
read before the British association in
Glasgow were few that had popular
interest, says London special in the
New York Press. One of these bore
the truly appalling title, "The Ere
quency and Fermentation Value of
Surnames of School Children in East
Aberdeenshire."
The author had found as a result
of long and careful fact gathering in
his district of Scotland that surnames
and complexion go together to re-
markable degree. Among the most
frequent of the names in the territory
he had covered, Whyte, oddly enough
was particularly dark in coloring. So
were the surnames of Cruikshank,
Stephen and Paterson. On the other
hand, Wallaces, Frasers, Grants and
Parks were blonde. Robertsons and
Gordons were dark. Persons named
Scott, Grant or Thompson were most
likely to be red headed, whereas men,
bers of the Johnston, Walker, Forbes,
Burnett and Watson families had the
least percentage of red in their color
ing.

AN ASTONISHING LAND.

roads Have Mahogany Ties.
An American railroad man landing
in Guatemala port Barios) encounters
sequence being, perhaps, the answer Of
the ticket agent to his inquiry as to
what is the railroad fare to Gaute-
mala City, which is about 100 miles
away and so miles beyond the terminus
OF the railroad. The price of the tick
ct to the railroad terminus-14O miles
is S14, or 10 cents mile. Being de-
termined. however, to comply with all
reasonable requirements, you hand out
SIS in American money, and on get
ting your change, receive the second
surprise, as the agent hands back your
$40 United States note and SIG in Gau-
temala money besides. You now learn
that one American dollar will buy SC
in Guatemala.
You find the passenger train very
good one. Everything is in excellent
condition and the engine is a fine
one. The train is equipped with air
brakes. The track is very poor. The
rails are heavy for a narrow gauge
road, but the track is badly out of
line. The ties are mahogany. rosewood
and ebony, but even ebony lasts only
about two years. The train runs at
about 10 miles an hour and makes long
stops. The road has nine locomotives,
several years old; 25 passenger cars,
10 of which are first class; 200 box
cars and 20 flats.
Locomotive engineers get So a day
for run of 80 miles; conductors 81 a
day, with no overtime; brakemen $75
a month and negro firemen the same.
Agents get from $100 to $3.50 a month,
most of them receiving about $780, The
operators are all natives The chief
dispatcher gets $500, which be it re-
membered is equivalent to only $50 of
American money. An American can
not live here for less than $3.50 a
month. l find that the other two roads
in this country pay about the same as
this one, except that on one of them
engine men get $40 day. Any railroad
man in the United States who has even
the poorest kind of a position on a
good road will do we'll to keep it rath-

Woman's Fancy Waist.

Fancy waists are in great demand
both for odd bodices and entire cos
tunes designed for indoor wear. The
very pretty May Manton model shown
in the large drawing is adapted to
both purposes equally well and admits
of many combinations. The original
is made of pale pink Sapho satin,
with bolero and deep cuffs of cream
lace over white and bands Of black
color, or any color banded with the
same shade in velvet would be effec-
tive, in addition to which the bolero
and cuffs could be made of panne or
Persian brocade in place Of lace.
The lining includes double darts,
under arm cores and side-backs, and
fits snugly and smoothly. On it are
arranged the several portions of the
waist and the two close together at
the back beneath the centre box
pleat.
The yoke is simply banded with
folds, but the lower portions of back
and front are laid in narrow box pleats
that extend from its lower edge, be-
meath the bolero to the belt. The
bolero can be made entirely separate
and the waist worn with or without
or caught at the upper edge and in
cluded in the arm's-eye seams. The
sleeves are novel and becoming. The
lower portions are covered smoothly
to form cuffs that flare over the hands,
while the pleats of the upper portions
fall free to form puffs at the elbows.

Don't Drink During Meals,

Be careful to limit the amount OF
water and fluids which you take during
meals, since large quantities of these,
especially ice water, hinder digestion
Not more than one glass of water
should be taken during each meal. In
order to quench the thirst which is so
apt to clamor for water at meals, an
eminent authority suggests taking a
glass of hot water Is or 80 minutes
before meals. This acts especially well
in the morning, as it cleanses the
stomach.-Ladies' Home Journal.

"They seem to have got range of u

''They seem to have got range of VI
now,"
For few seconds there was silence
as the men realized their danger. The
angry growl of the quick fires was ev-
cry now and then punctured by the
long, deep mouthed baying of the
Beers Long Tom.
"They are aiming at u.s." shouted a
man, running into the tent with his
right arm hanging helpless by his side.
Immediately there was violent con-
a pungent smell, and the tent lit up
with a tongue of flame. In an instant
three or four men sprang forward and
the fire was extinguished.
"The next shot will count a hit if
I am not mistaken"
Scarcely were the words out of his
mouth when huge rent suddenly
opened in the canvas and a shell
dropped right into the middle of the
tent. The wounded ducked under their
covering as if they would bury them
selves beneath the ground. The doc
tor, with another, rushed forward; but
Private Cory was before them.
mot you, DOCTOR" he shouted, as he
seized the bomb.
Quick, man. Into the bucket with
it," said the doctor. mo, there's no
water. Merciful powers!"
But Cory had dashed through the
opening. and was running like hare.
They were all dumfounded for mo-
ment. Then a cheer broke from them
when they realized what he was doing
"a cheer in which dying men joined.
Throw it away! Now! Throw it,!
yelled the doctor after him.
Still he ran. The music of what he
knew was their applause rang in his
ears. Nothing had ever sounded so
sweet to hlm as this. He smiled. 1t
reminded him family of his achieve
ments in the football field when the
crowd roared their approval. The ball
he carried now was heavier, but the
applause-only he knew what it meant
to him, and he clutched the destructive
missile like a child hugging doll. He
felt inclined to kiss it. If he lived he
would be man and a comrade again.
If not-but he ran on.
Some one had wisely said that it re-
Quires often but the turn of straw
to make coward hero, or hero a
coward. Cory was man again. The
paralysis of panic rnat had seized him
a few hours ago and had frozen his
heart existed now only as hideous
dream. Another 10 yards-he was
quite so from the tent. He heard them
urging him to throw it. A few more
yards. then with a tremendous effort
he hurled it from him. Instantly there
was an explosion, and Cory fell on his
face
Poor chap. He is done for, l
doubt" said the doctor, as several
raced forward, followed by number of
wounded, who limped in pain.
They knelt by the poor shattered
body. The sergeant. his old tormentor,
regardless of his own wounds, had been
among the first wno rushed to his as
sistance.
Cory raised the only hand left him,
which the sergeant clas:-ed, murmuring
something about forgiveness. A smile
of exultation played about his face for
= moment, then the film of death gath
cred over his eyes. He tried to speak,
hut no words came in obedience to the
