What Mary Gave.

She gave an hour of patient care
to her little baby sister, who was cut
ting teeth. She gave string and
crooked pin and a great deal OF good
advice to the three-year-old brother,
who wanted to play fishing. She gave
Ellen. the maid, a precious hour to go
and visit her sick baby at home, for
Ellen was a widow and left her chlld
at It's grandmother's while she work
ed to get bread for both. She could
not have seen them very often II
Mary had not offered to attend the
door while she went away.
But this was not all that Mary gave.
She dressed herself neatly, and look
ed so bright and kind and obliging
that she gave her mother thrill OIL
pleasure whenever she caught sight
of the young, pleasant face. She
wrote a letter to her father, who was
absent on business. She gave patient
attention to long story by her grand
mother. and, when it was ended, made
the old lady happy by a good night
kiss.
Thus she had given valuable pres
ents to six people in one day; and yet
she had not a cent in the world She
was as good as gold, and she gave
something Of herself to all those who
were so happy as to meet her.-Cnris'

The Ancient Watch.

There is uncertainty ds to when the
portable watch, as we understand it
to-day, came into use. 1t was proba-
bly, at the close of the sixteenth cen
fury. Queen Elizabeth owned a large
number of watches. Mary Queen of
Scots was the possessor of a skull
shaped watch. In fact the deaths
head pattern was at that time much
in vogue. Endless were the styles, for
there were watches shaped like
books, pears, butterflies and tulips.
The Nuremberg egg was a special
shape, and was first made in 1900.
Those queer shapes of watches pre-
vented their finding a place in the
pocket. When was the fob first used
in the dress of man? The German of
fob is "fuppe" and it is believed that
It came from England through the
Puritans, whose dislike of display
may have induced them to conceal
their timekeepers from the public
gaze"
This conjecture is strengthened by
the fact that a short fob chain at
tached to watch of Oliver Cromwell
in the British Museum is, in point
of date, the first apendage of the kind
known. The watch is a small oval
one in a silver case, and was made
about 1925 by John Midnall, of Fleet
Exchange.

Beyond Reason.

A Scottish singer named Wilson,
who was being trained for profess

exquisite quality of voice, but with in
sufficient passion and expression.
His teacher told him he must put
more feeling into it, and sing as if
he were really in love.
"Eh, man." he replied, "hoo can /
do that and me a marriet man?"-

THE TRICKS
Coffee Plays on Some.

It hardly pays to laugh before you
are certain Of facts, for it is sometimes
humiliating to think Of afterwards.
when I was young girl 1 was
lover of coffee, but was sick so much
the doctor told me to quit and did, but
after my marriage my husband begged
me to drink it again as he did not think
it was the coffee caused the troubles.
$50 / commenced it again and con-
tinued about months until my stOm-
ach commenced acting bad and choking
as if I had swallowed something the
size Of an egg. One doctor said it was
neuralgia and indigestion.
Zone day took drive with my hus-
band three miles in the country and I
drank a cup Of coffee for dinner. I
thought sure would die before l got
back to town to a doctor. I was drawn
double in the buggy and when my hus-
band hitched the horse to get me out
into the doctors office, misery came up
in my throat and seemed to shut my
breath off entirely, then left all in a
fash and went to my heart. The doc
tor pronounced it nervous heart trouble
and when 1 got home I was so weak
could not sit up.
''NIy husband brought my supper to
my bedside with a nice cup Of hot
coffee, but / said: Take that back,
dear, will never drink another cup Of
coffee if you gave me everything you
are worth, for it is just killing me- He

The Latest South African Discovery
EolInses All Other Stones in Size.


The news of the finding of dia-
mond near Pretoria which weighs
more than 5000 karats (about one
and one-half pounds avoirdupois) ex-
cites interest all over the world, as
it is by far the largest diamond that
history has known What weight VIII
remain when the stone is cut can not
be known. In the rough, the stone
is valued at from 100000 to So
100000.
The Kohinoor, the prize jewel OF
the English crown, was in its original
form only a fourth of the size OF this
new wonder, weighing only 794
karats. It is an Indian diamond, OF
Golconda, and the legend is that It
was worth 5000 years ago. A French
traveller, who saw it in the early sew
enteenth century, describes it as OF
the shape of a half egg, and weighing
280 karats, it having been thus re-
duced by an unskilled cutter. Later
it was still further reduced to 1856
karats, and later to 106. It's under
side being fat and corresponding with
the cleavage, it is conjectured that it
and the Russian OrlOff diamond are
portions of the original stone that the
French traveller saw.
This Dr1off diamond weighs 1874
karats, cut in the rose form with fiat
surface below. 1t was sold to Count
Orloff for the Empress Catherine for
a title, an annuity and 100000 rubles.
There are legends of many sorts at
tached to these large stones. The
finest stone of them all perhaps is the
Regent or Pitt diamond, so called
from Governor Pitt, of Madras, who
bought it for 100000. It was sold to
the regent for Louis XIV for 8130,000,
and is said to be worth twice that
1t originally weighed 410 karats, but
was reduced to 1856. The Florentine
diamond. another of the famous large
stones, belongs to Austria. It weighs
1873 karats. Among the legends that
cluster around it is that it was lost
by Charles the Bold at the battle of
Granson. and found by peasant who
sold it for few pence as a piece Of
rock crystal
A recent consular report showed
$31 100000 worth of precious stones
was imported into this country in the
fiscal year of 1903, and of this sum
diamonds constituted $26,500,000
worth, being the largest amount ever
imported into this country in one
year. The commercial condition of
a country has much to do with dia-
mond buying. In the year mentioned
Americans bought rather more prec-
ious stones than London did. In the
last few years the value of the dia-
mond has steadily been rising. 1t is
said that waves Of prosperity can be
measured almost exactly by the i'm
ports Of precious stones.

"I venture to say" continued Mr..
Jordan, "that in the present war not

that not one dollar in twenty, IL one

DIR. Jordan's lecture was largely up
on shintoism, the chief religion in
Japan, which he said was not a form
Of worship, but a spiritual living so
ancestors would not be ashamed of
their. descendants.
