Pearls as Birthday Presents.

The fashion Of presenting a pearl to
mark the occasion of each birthday
anniversary Is pretty idea in addi.
tlcn to being sensible investment.
From childhood the three daughters
Of the king and queen have each birth.
CAV received single beautiful pearl
from their parents. This idea has
been followed by numbers OF society
mothers well endowed with this
worlds goods. There are many peo
pie from royalty downward who pos
sess magnificent strings Of pearls.
Queen Alexandra. for instance, who
inherited from the late Queen Anne
some OF the most beautiful pear
shaped pearls in existence. The new
Duchess Of Norfolk has also by her
marriage become the possessor OF
very lovely strings Of pearls.

Mrs. Lanotry Carries Gem She
Found in Venetian Lake.

Among men and women who have
won name and fame in professional
life quite number are to be found
who believe in the supernatural pow
er OF some curious talisman which
they possess. Sarasate, the famous
Spanish vlolinist, for instance would
not dream of playing at concert un.
less he carried somewhere about his
person tiny replica in silver of the
famous Guarnerius violin on which
Paganini used to play.
Paderewski, the famous pianist.
also possesses mascot which is
always with him In the shape OF
ring once worn by his first wife. Most
people are doubtless aware of the sad
story of Paderewski's first marriage.
how his wife died in giving birth to
a son just as the pianist was on the
threshold of success. and how the
Torld would probably never have
heard Of him had not the necessity Of
providing for his son compelled the
1.usician to continue his professional
--reer. Paderewski does not wear
.'e ring on his finger. 1t rests in
.ily pocket inside his waistcoat and
attached to fine gold chain which
'ncircles the pianist's neck.
From the musical profession to the

preventing him railing on to the line.
Slnce then the jockey has come to

But history is not chaotic. Just as
God purifies the water Of the ocean by
means of waves caused by the motion
of the earth, then lifts it in fog and
sends it out over the land to wash inn
purities from the air, so he deals with
churches and nations.
History when rightly regarded is but
record Of the events Of Providence
and he who would get most out Of it,
must read it with his eye fixed con-
stantly upon the hand Of God, and he
will then see it put on the appearance
Of system and form, as il animated by
one great soul.
Providence is like great unfathOm
able sea, which none but the eye Of Goo

God laid his hand on him and Abrqm
