FOUND AFTER FORTY YEARS
Discovery Of Ring United Again Tive
lovIno Hearts,

A strange romance OF lost en-
gagement ring and OF its recovery
forty years later on a turtle, OF the
renewal of the engagement on the
recovery Of the ring and OF a happy
marriage ensuing, has come TO light
at Augusta. Ga.
Forty years ago, in 1865, John Mar
tin. then constructing engineer on
the Grand Trunk railroad, and Freda
Olmstead, the belle of Augusta, were
betrothed. and as pledge John
placed upon her finger gold ring.
Almost Immediately he went away on
an inspection tour.
In his absence Miss Olmstead went
for boat ride with a young man on
neighboring lake. While they were
out they caught a small turtle and the
girl sportively slipped off her en-
gagement ring and slipped 1t over its
head A moment later the turtle
slipped from her hand into the water
and disappeared.
When Martin returned and learned
of the incident his jealousy was
dlOuStu. ilS uOuDltu utI SAOIS' hS u
result the engagement was broken
off, and Martin returned to Germany,
his native land.
Last spring one of n fishing party
on the lake captured a turtle and
found a diamond ring encircling its
neck. It was the ring that Miss Ohm
stead had lost. She communicated
the circumstances of its recovery to
Martin, who had remained unmarried
and as happy sequel they were mar
ried in the Georgia city.
Miss Olmstead was 16 years old
when she was betrothed. Mrs. John
Martin was 56 years old on April 81.
The bridegroom is Il. He exhibits
many youthful traits in talking of his
love romance. He is the only sur.
viving member of his family and is
sole owner of an extensive estate in
Germany. For many years he was en-
gagged as builder in Heidelberg, his
native city.

A Wonderful Book,

The most wonderful book in the
world is one which is neither written
nor printed. Every letter is cut into
the leaf, and, as the leaves are al.
ternately blue and white, it is as cas-.
lily read as the best printing. The
labor required in cutting each letter
may be imagined. The work is done
so perfectly that it seems as though
done by machinery, yet every charac-
ter was made by hand The book is
entitled "The Passion of Christ" It
is a very old volume, and was a curl
osity as long ago as 1910. It belongs
to the family OF the prince of Ligne.

GREAT CHANGE

FAULTS OF THE MISTRESS.
Not Always as Considerable as She
Might Be.

The capable mistress is generally
the most considerate, and there is nc
question but that she is the strongest
factor in the production OF whatever
good service is given in the household
to-day, writes Jane Seymour Klink. ir
the Atlantic. Nevertheless, she Is
sometimes inconsiderate. and in this
way: She can turn OFF work" SO
quickly herself that she often forgets
others have not the same faculty.
Girls In new place are often slow
just because they are 40 nervously
anxious to please. A capable mistress,
impatient because things are not NOV.
ing so rapidly as she knows they can
move, does not always give a maid
the two weeks trial. by which she
could do herself justice. Again. the
capable mistress comes into the kltch
en- to make cake. Everything Is
ready to her hand. and she whisks
up the cake In a few minutes, telling
Jane to bake II carefully. She goes
up stairs and contrasts her quickness
with James slowness, forgetting that
she had neither placed things in readl.
ness, nor cleared them away, neither
superintended the baking.
