 A diamond besides being luxury Is an investment and 1t is to the pur- chaser's interest to buy his diamond where he gets the most value for his money. fou may never have to sell it. but if you do you will want to get every dollar you paid for it and more too, At the price we sell daimonds and the guarantee we give with them. than q small per cent. in case of an emergency.

Bee stInas and rheumatism.

Bee sting is said to be good for
rheumatism, but that is not the bees
intention in administering it. The
bee has other problems than those
connected with the curative art His
intention is to lift his man out of po-
sitioa and he does it-unless the lat
ter is intoxicated. If the man has
rheumatism, no matter. The bee
moves him at once by eliminating
acid from the blood and arousing the
gamiest leg from the lethargy of ages.
1t is well before annoying the bee to
get your rhumatism established, be-
cause one sting viii lap over good
deal Of rheumatism. and If you have
an insufficient supply of the latter to
neutralize It the bee in his earnest
ness is prone to overdo his part.

orIuIn Of aPIaalarlst. .

Though everybody knows the mean
ing Of the words plagiarist and plag-
iarism, few are acquainted with their
derivation. Among the more depraved
classes of ancient Rome there existed
q nefarious custom of stealing chill
dren and selling them as slaves. Ac-
cording to law. the child-stealers,
when detected, we're liable to the pen
atty Of being severely fogged; and as
the Latin word ''plega" signifies a
stripe or lash. the ancient kidnapers
were, in Cicero's time, termed "plagi-
ari''-tbat is, deserving Of, or liable to
stree. Thus both the crime aud the
criIs mails received their names from
the punishment inflicted.

PICTURED ON CENT.
FAMILIAR FACE IS THAT OF
YOUNG AMERICAN GIRL.
Daughter Of Chief EngraveF Of the
United States Mint at Philadel-
phia in the Year fa35-How
II Happened.

Mrs. Sarah LOngaere Keen, who re-
Gently died in Philadelphia. comes
nearer being the queen Of the Ameri-
can mint than any woman who ever
lived. With the exception of Queen
Victoria. whose image was engraved
on every coin Of the British and In
dian empires, Mrs. Keen comes next
highest in the number Of her metal
photographs, says the Detroit News
Tribune. Her face as a girl OF IL
summers is 10 be seen on every Amer
ican cent issued since 1886 from
Uncle Sans coin factory.
It is usually assumed that the face
on the head side of the copper is that
Of an Indian. But a close look will
reveal a Saxon profile. Just borrow
cent and look at it. The setting is
that of an Indian.
Between 1928 and 1910 James Bar
ton Longacre was chief engraver in
the United States mint In Philadel-
phia In 1885 a competition was
opened for sketches and engravings
for the new copper cent that was to
be issued, and which has since been
In service. There we're over thou
sand designs offered. The prize was
a good one. Lonacre racked his brain
for some original and singular design
that would strike to the judges, but
for months he failed to satisfy him
self.
One morning a number of Indians
with their chief, who had been to pay
their respects to the great white chief
In Washington, came to the city and
were shown through the mint. They
were introduced to the white chiefs
picture maker, who was just then
showing his young daughter Sarah
the great concern. The old chief was
attracted by the sweet-faced maiden
and her interest in his feathers and
paint She childishly wondered how
she would look in that wild headgear.
This was told the chief, who solemnly
diyested himself of his feathers and
had them placed on the girls head.
The effect was so striking that the
father took time to make a sketch OF
the picture, finishing 1t afterward for
his own amusement.
At the last moment of the period
given for sending in engravings he
bethought himself Of the possibility
OF the combination of Indian feathers
and Saxon sweetness. He got 1t In /;
and much sport was made OF the child
at the time in the city because Of the
incident The sketch passed through
the seventh sitting and finally reached
the last round. BY one vote it won;
and ever since Sarah Longacre's s
young face has served for the hum
blest Of coins. than which no single
coin in the world has such tremen-
dous circulation.
