Worlds Homage Paid Juliets Grave

And told me of one little grave that
Had made her own, in far-off Italy.
One sacred spot in that old-storied city
Verona, where in pensive. wondering pity
Thousands still come to mourn, each

And lives near by it. every evening

Away with, tottering limbs and work
flushed face,
Great basket loads of flowers and little
things
That maiden. traveller. poet sage and

Have carried there from all the wide
And delnged Juliet's grave with ofter-

How the world loves this lovely Memory!
Yet none knows whether she lies bur-

FRUITFUL FURNACES
INTENSE HEAT PRODUCES
PRECIOUS STONES.
Scientists Have Succeeded in Pluck
ing Real Diamonds and Rubies from
the CrucibIe Of the Furnace.

Recent advices from France state
that Prof Moissan. the eminent sci
enlist and inventor, has actually sue
ceeded in making genuine diamonds
and rubies He employs for this pur-
pose the electric furnace. which has
been so improved that a degree of
heat can be produced, approaching the
extreme temperatures, which were un,
doubtedly a factor In the formation OF
minerals and gems in the interior of
the earth.
The rubies obtained are of large
size. weighing 10 or is carats, and in
quality and color equal and even sur
pass those found in the earth The
natural forces attending the formation
of diamonds seem to have been more
complicated, and so far the diamonds
resulting from the efforts of the sci
entists have been very small but still
they are positively identified as the
carbon crystalline diamond They
are remarkably clear and bright, and
on a small scale as fine specimens as
natures own product.
The electric furnace has enriched
chemistry with whole series OF
new compounds. Probably the one OF
most value TO mankind at large is Cal
cium Carbide. The simple applica-
ton of water to Calcium Carbide gen
crates the gas Acetylene, which is
now being commonly used for light.

STRONGER THAN MEAT.
Judges opinion Of orape-Nuts.

A Judges Opinion of Grape-Nuts.
A gentleman who has acquired a
judicial turn of mind from experience
on the bench out in the Sunfower
State, writes carefully considered
opinion as to the value of Grape-Nuts
as food. He says:
For the past years Grape-Nuts
has been prominent feature in our
bill of fare.
"The crisp food with the delicious,
nutty flavor has become an indispensa-
BILE necessity in my family's everyday
life.
TT has proved to be most healthful
and beneficial, and has enabled us to
practically abolish pastry and pies
from our table, for the children prefer
Grape-Nuts and do not crave rich and
unwholesome food
"Grape-Nuts keeps us all in perfect
physical condition-as a preventive of
disease 1t is beyond value have been
particularly impressed by the benefi-
cial effects of Grape-Nuts when used
by ladies who are troubled with face
blemishes, skin eruptions, etc. 1t
clears up the complexion wonderfully.
"As to its nutritive qualities. my ex-
perience Is that one small dish of
Grape-Nuts is superior to pound of
meat, for. breakfast, which is an inn
