Famous Rings That
Have Tragic History

The nephew of the late Sir Richard
Temple has in his possession ring in
which is set a minute musical box
that, on spring being touched, emits
soft tune-weird and sad an echo of
troublous past. Over a century back
this ring belonged to a loyal follower
of the ill-fated French monarchy, who,
when thrown into prison, was wont to
find solace in the music of this ingen-
ious trinket.
1t played its last tune for him while
at the scaffolds foot he waited execu-
ton. from which hour it remained I'M
accountably silent until it's present
owner took it to a jeweler, who found
in it's mechanism clot of blood that
had impeded its action. On this being
removed the musical powers Of the
ring at once returned.
Still more curious. could 1t be
traced, would be the history of the
ring habitually worn by that popular
novelist, Mr.. Rider Haggard. 1t is a
signet ring, and centuries back en-
circled the finger of Rameses the

San JdCintO Corn Was
Named by Sam Houston

me the stories, so l soon heard this
one. 1t seems that the Texas army
nearly starved to death on their chase
after Santa Ana and his invading ar
my. When the end came they were
down to no rations at all. After San
ia Anas army had been cut to pieces
in the trap which the Americans had
laid and the Mexican leader was cap
tured, old Houston strutted up and
down in front of his tent.
FINALLY he pulled an ear of corn
out of the pocket Of his coat and
showed it to the scowling Mexican.
Sir he said, do you ever expect to
conquer men who fight for freedom
whose general can march four days
with one ear of corn for rations" The
men heard and cheered and begged
their leader for that ear Of corn. He
gave it to them, as plenty OF rations
had been captured with the Mexicans.
The men divided its kernels and when
they reached their homes planted
them. That is why there is San ia
cinto corn to-day from one end of
Texas to the other."-New York Trib-
une.

Youth Must Be Served.

The Philadelphia Ledger says that
the main demand of employers at the
present time is for ''the active, eager,
rapid young men who will hustle out
two days work in one days time for a
half days wages without much re-
gard to the quality of the perform
ance." Then this case is described:
He is man of good health, strength
and business training. who fer two
years has sought work by which he
could earn living. He describes him
self as sober, well educated and a
veteran Of the civil war Yet in all
his long, weary and fruitless search
he has failed, and everywhere the
cause of his failure is the same-he
is fifty-seven years old. Wherever
he applies for work the employer does
not even care to know about his quail
iications, because he has one demerit
which outweighs all virtues-he is no
longer young"

jeWeled Pottery the

a New York wholesale house, says the

jeweled glass for many years, and
lamp shades inset with sparkling

AMERICAN FLAG ON STAMPS.

New United States Issue to Be Fin.
est Ever Sent Out.
For the first time since 1863, says
the Boston Transcript, the postoffice
department, with the issuance of the
new series of stamps now in prepara-
ton, will make use of the American
flag in one Of its designs. This will
be part of the two-cent stamp,
which, by the way, will bear little
resemblance to the one now current.
The familiar portrait of Washington
will be succeeded by a photograph
taken from Gilbert Stuarts famous
painting. This bust of Washington,
so long known to the stamp-using
public, was drawn from Houdon's pro-
nile cast. Stamp experts think that
this new two-cent stamp, with its
superb likeness of Washington, its
draped flags, it's wreaths of laurel
leaves in the lower corners, and the
general balance of text and artistic
effect, together with the remarkable
excellence of the mechanical work,
will make this the finest postage
stamp ever produced.

HOW WESTERN WOMEN RIDE.
Their Grace and Daring UnequaIed
in the World,


It Is from the cowboy that the
Western equestrienne has learned her
most valuable lessons in riding. The
cross saddle and divided skirt have
given her equal privileges, and she
has not failed to take advantage of
them. There has arisen in the West
to-day a school of riders that prob
ably can not be equaled in the world.
This school is made up of women who
are to be found in every part of the
great Western cattle country. They
are dashing. natural riders, who are
as much at home in the saddle as the
cowboy who ever donned pair Of
Snaps" Many of them take part in
the cattle round-ups, and some have
even acquired fame as steer ropers
and branders. To such women
bucking broncho has no terror. In
deed, they regard "tussle" with one
CT these vicious animals as nothing
short of good sport. They are seldom
thrown, but if they are hurled from
the back of QUICKER" they return
TO the saddle and never cease plying
the quirt and spurs until they have
reduced the outlaw to submission.
