A Singular Fact ABOUT Gems.

1t is a rather singular fact that the.
most precious gems are composed of
the most common substances. The
diamond is the purest form of carbon,
and is identical in composition with
ordinary charcoal without the impuri-
ties of the charcoal. The ruby, on the
other hand, is nearly pure alumina,
substance found in profusion in every
clay bank. The scientific name for
crystallized alumina is corundum, and
the gems comprehended under this des-
ignation are sometimes more valuable
than diamonds of the same weight,
The ruby, the sapphire, the oriental
emerald, topaz, amethyst, aqua marine,
chrysolite, the hyacinth and other pre-
cious stones are all alumina, the va
rieties Of color being caused by inap-
preciable quantities of metallic oxides.

Eow Painter First Showed It's G1ories
to His Bride.
IAN artist who loved the wilderness
brought his bride to the head Of the
Bright Angel trail. 1t was night when
they came to their journeys end, and
the man persuaded the woman not to
look upon the Grand canyon until
morning. When the sun was high he
blindfolded her and led her out Of the
log hotel that stood upon the brink OF
the precipice to a point Of rock that
overhangs the abyss.
For two days and nights they had
been riding through the desert, fat and
gray, with blue mountains Ticking In
and out Of the horizon, with few jar
ring crevasses and buttes and bluffs
to emphasize the tranquility of the
scene. The desert, with its somber
serenity, had charmed her soul and left
it in fine repose. AS she stood blind
folded she could think of nothing but
the great level stretches Of sand and
sage and cactus. The man had told
the woman little Of the canyon, and
when he took the bandage from her
eyes he held her very tightly as she
looked out across the miles and miles
of tumult of form and riot Of color
that seemed to swirl thousands OF feet
below her and around her.
AS from the clouds she looked down
into an illimitable, red-tinged, ash
colored hell, abandoned and turned to
stone, cons and cons ago. She stared
amazed at the awful thing for long
minute, and then, as the tears OF In
applicable emotion dimmed her eyes,
she turned and cried vehemently at her
artist husband:

Chicago, Sept.-The Peruna Drug
Manufacturing Company, manufac-
turers Of widely known proprietary
medicine, has brought suit in the Su-
perior Court of the city Of Chicago
against the Curtis Publishing Com
pany Of Philadelphia, alleging that it
has been damaged to the extent Of
$250,000 by recent article in the
Ladies' Home Journal.
The suit is based on a statement re-
Gently made in that journal that a tes-
timonial as to the merit of the remedy
manufactured by the plaintiff, alleged
to have been given by Congressman
George H. White of South Carolina
was fraudulent, denial from Mr.. White
that he ever gave such testimonial
also being printed.
The Peruna Company declares that
Congressman White did give the tes-
timonial in good faith, that it has two
original letters from Mr. White. It
declares that Mr.. White was led to
repudiate the testimonial through q
misunderstanding
This is the second large damage suit
that has been fled against the Curtis
Publishing Company since it inaugu-
rated its attacks on patent medi-
cines"

Anonymity seems to be becoming
the fashion in literature. The Mac

anonymous novels, each Of which has

"Sturmsee" and Mrs. Darrell"
Gustave Kobbe, so we'll known as a
writer upon musical subjects in the
leading magazines and reviews, has
been esteemed as a musical critic
for nearly quarter Of century. His
most recent work is Loves Of tSe
Great Composers" He is the author
Of number Of books, among which
1.-THE Ring Of the Nibelung," "Wag-
ner's Life and Works." plays for
Amateurs" Opera Singers" and
"Signora: A Child of the Opera
House," are the most important.
1t is said that last year no less than
1000 visitors were recorded as having
been at Abbotsford, Sir Walter Scott's
estate, though people of fine taste in
their time had little enough to say i'll

ugly Abbotsford;" Ruskin described
it as "the most incongruous pile gem
telmanly modernism ever designed"
Dean Stanley said it was "a place to
visit once, but never again" But it
is not for the place, per Sc, that visi-

DR.. Felix Adler, author Of num-
Der Of books Of serious import, bears
an international reputation as a Jew
who has fitted himself to contempor-
airy circumstance. He has left the
close-bound faith Of his fathers and
has acquired and promulgates the best
philosophy Of his time-a philosophy
which includes some Of the greater
doctrines Of Christ, but which so far
accords with the scientific spirit as to
preclude miracles and mysteries. Ho

great character makers Of the coun-

Hon. J. M. Longley makes this very
true observation in the Canadian Mag
azine: Fifty years ago the maya
zine contained articles on philosophi-
cal and religious subjects. Scarcely
any venture to deal with such topics
now, and a glance at their contents
will show that the articles now sought
by the people are either short stories,
historical euriosities or descriptions OF
material progress taking place all
over the world, including fresh inven-
tons and scientific discoveries" Is Is
only necessary to note the great num-
Der Of periodicals whose sole purpose
Is to amuse and entertain which are
bought and read and thrown away, to
recognize that Mr.. Longley might
have said much more and still have
kept within the limit Of truth.

All women work; some in their
homes, some in church, and some in
the whirl Of society And in stores,
mills and shops tens of thousands are
on the never-ceasing treadInill, earning
their daily bread.
All are subject to the same physical
laws; all suffer alike from the same
physical distur bance, and the nature of
their duties, in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds of female complaints, ovarian
troubles, liberation, falling and dis
placements of the womb, leucorrhma,
or perhaps irregularity Or suppression

ache, nervousness, irritability and

Women who stand on their feet all

troubles than others.

timber license from the crown.
Much of Canadas timber land has
not yet even been explored. In the
newly developed districts Of Algoma
which are close to the great lakes, j.,
is estimated that there are more tha'
100000 cords Of spruce and pub
wood, while in the districts of Thun

nearly 2OOOOO,OOO cords more. A bel
at least 5000 miles long is believed Il
exist in Canada between Alaska and
the Atlantic.
It has been estimated that, at the
present rate of cutting, the greatest
timber resources Of the United States
those of the Pacific coast-will be
exhausted in less than half century.
The annual cut of shingles and lumber
in these regions is 4,500,000,O0O feet.
