A native of Ceylon has had an ex-
traordinary run of luck in the finding
of cats eye gems. He was quite a
poor man when some months ago he
found a gem worth e1.250. Soon
afterward he found another. which he
sold for 92,500. And now he has
crowned his good fortune by finding
the largest known gem of the kind.
which weighs nearly seven pounds.
and for which he has refused $4,000.
He says that he can cut the gem into
forty stones, each of which viii bring
$1,000. This means wealth beyond

rakea chlIdren in Pawn.

An Engiishman makes an excellent
living by receiving children in pawn.
The parents of the child are in want
or money. perhaps to pay debt or q
fine. Their goods and chattels are
practically worthless, and there Ia
nothing upon which they can realize
any cash. They accordingly place the
child sin pawn"-that is, allow the
"pawnbroker" to have the services OF
the boy or girl for a certain period
in return for a sum of money. or
course, the amount paid is nothing
near commensurate with the work the
child does; but the parents think only

The Value of a Hens Egg.

Here are some facts aud figures
relative to the hens egg which
may not be without interest to the
student of poultry possibilities.
It's average length is two and
twenty-sen hundredths inches, ITS
average diameter at the broad end
one and seventy-two hundredths
inches. and il weighs about one
eighth of a pound. The pullets'
are smaller than those of old hens.
The shell constitutes about ii per
cent, the yolk 81 per cent. and
the white 81 per cent. OF the total
egg. Chemically speaking, an egg
consists of two nutrients-protein
and fat--together with some
water and a small quantity of min
eral matter. Popular belief to the
contrary, there is no difference in
the nutritive qualities of eggs with
dark shells and those with light.
Their flavor is affected by the food
of the fowl, for good or for evila
Exhaustive experiments by we'll
equipped Investigators prove that
the egg deserves its reputation as
an easily assimilated and highly
nutritious food, if eaten raw or
lightly cooked. Such experiments
also show that eggs at twelve cents
per dozen are a cheap source OF
nutrients: at sixteen cents, some
what expensive, and at twenty-five
cents and over, highly extravagant.
The basis of comparison was the
market prices of standard flesh
foods considered in relation TO their
nutritive clements. But there IS q
physiological constituent OF eggs
which is OF great value, yet II
defies the search of the scientist OF
the inquisition of the .statistician,
and that is their palatability.
Unless a food, however rich in pro-
TENS. is relished, it loses much oil
its value. while, per contra, a less
chemically desirable food that Is
enjoyed becomes valuable by reason

Dear Sir: A big mill-owner,
Spartansburg, S c, wanted 5000
gallons of paint, and bought by
price; paid 5 cents less than ours;
got a 'lead-and-zinc" paint; but
the lead was sulphate of lead, not
carbonate. Sulphate costs about
half; and covers about half.
That paint was adulterated about
six times as much as the cents
paid for. He saved S cents;
and in the cost him 50.
Oh no; it cost him more than
that; we forgot the labor. Can't
work it out exactly; don't know
how long it'll wear.

was twice as much as his saving"

II was thin. too: some loss there;
don't know how much.
There was too much dryer in it.

ONLY GUARANTEED
CATARRH CURE.
"Hyomei Costs You Nothing, If it
Fails" Says j.. II. O'RieiIy 6 Co.

Among the many medicines upon
the market that claim to cure catarrh
none but Hyomei has enough faith in
its own merit to offer to refund the
money If it does not cure.
HyOmei is the only method of treat
ment that sends by direct inhalation
to the most remote parts of the air
passages, a balsamic air that destroys
all catarrhal germs in the breathing
organs, enriches and p~uriies the blood
with additional ozone, and makes per-
manent and complete cures of catarrh.
The complete outfit coses 81, and
comprises an inhaler, a bottle of Hy-
omei and a dropper. The inhaler will
last a lifetime, and additional bottles
of Hyomei can be obtained for so
cents.
Breathe Hyomei for a few minutes
four times a day, and your catarrh
will grow better from the first days
use, and will be completely cured
within a short time.
1t is the only treatment for catarrh
where you can get your money back
from a local dealer, j.. H. O'Rielly &
Co., in case it does not help.
