SHE ATE THE GEM, SAYS JURY.
Omaha Girl Found Guilty or Stealing Dia-
mond which She Swallowed.

OMAHA, June lO.-After celebrating for
more han t~wenty-four hours the jury to-
day decided that Mae Thomas was guilty
of eating a diamond, but asked the Court
to be lenient with her because of her youth.
Sentence will be passed tomorrow.
Mae Thomas is the girl who stole a dia-
mond worth $3.50 a month ago and in an
attempt to evade discovery placed the
stone in her mouth and swallowed it. The
diamond was located by X-rays and every
effort short Of an operation was tried to
recover it, but unsuccessfully.
The trial consumed almost a week and
drew big crowds. The girl confessed early
in the game, but withdrew this and pleaded
not guilty at the trial. She acknowledged
placing the gem in her mouth for the pur-
pose of testing it, she said, but left it to
the jury to say what became of the stone
after that. She will probably get a three
wear sentence.

FATHER AND MOTHER.

While we have father and mother
here on earth to work for we should
try to do our best. We should love
and obey them and never say an I'M
kind word, such as II won't" or 81
can't" Such words as that make
father and mother think their children
do not love them.
We should always remember, Honor
thy father and thy mother" Some par
ents cannot whip their children. l
think every child ought to do as their
parents tell them without whipping or
scolding. Don't you? Parents ought
to send their children to school on
week days and on Sunday send them
to church and learn to do good. Each
child should read the Bible. We should
never be forgetful.
Some children are saucy to their
parents. Children should be allowed
to read good books. Father and
mother are the best friends we have
on earth. We should be kind to the
poor. Do all we can to help them.

THE DOLLS BURIAL.

One day when papa and mamma
were both away and grandma was
staying with us she told us the follow
ing story:
When / was a little girl could not
have such beautiful dolls as you have,
but / had some that answered the
purpose just as well.
. My sister and l had dolls made OF
corn cobs.
We loved them quite as well as you
do your fine bisque babies with their
real curls. We had grown to be large
girls when one day l said to my sister,
"Let's bury our dolls, and play they
are dead, for we are getting too big
to play with dolls"
So we got some boxes to serve as
coffins. dressed our dolls in their best,
and put them into the boxes. We had
a really fine little funeral service, after
which we took them out behind the
BARNARD and buried them.
Though that was years ago. do
not believe any of us will ever forget
the dolls funeral. II

glistening eyes. Finally he broke in
with: ooh sir, allow me to continue
this most wonderful story. My be-

by that same lake when black cat
came tumbling into the water. She
stopped down and with her own hands
