Almost every jewel has superstition
Of some sort attaching to it, and the
bloodstone is not wanting in this par
ticular. The story is told Of it that at
the time Of the cruciflxion some drops
Of blood fell on a piece Of dark green
jasper that lay at the foot Of the Cross.
The crimson crept through the struc-
ture Of the stone, and this was the
parent Of this beautiful jewel. The
dark red spots and veins were sup
posed to represent the blood Of Christ,
and many wonderful properties were
attributed to the stone. It was
thought to preserve its wearer from
dangers, to bring good fortune and to
heal many diseases.

BIRDS COMPETE
WITH PREACHER
Fifteen Hundred Sparrows Chatter Con
stantly In Quaker City
Church.

It is not every church that can have
bird chorus in addition to its regular
choir and it's congregational singing.
While it cannot be said that Bethany
temple, at Fify-fourth and Spruce
streets, Philadelphia, enjoys this dis
tinction, yet it IS true nevertheless
that the services are accompanied by
the singing Of 1900 English sparrows.
It was while the windows were be-
ing put In place and after the roof had
been completed that the birds made
their ingress to the church. The work
men paid little attention to them,
thinking they would 60 out as they
came, but the birds are still there, and
their presence causes no little worri.
ment to the officers Of the church.
They nest up on the big joists that
brace the roof and during the day fly
about the church, keeping up continu-
al twitter.
Were It not necessary to open the
windows occasionally to ventilate the
ediflce the birds might be starved out.
But this seems to be impossible. Every
time a window is opened twenty or
thirty fly out and go in search Of food.
If the windows are all closed when
they return they wait another opportu-
nifty to re-enter.
Evening services are never disturb
ed, for the birds have then gone to nest,
and the church singing evidently does
not arouse them. It is while prayer is
being offered or a sermon preached
that the real annoyance comes. The
speaker has to talk continuously
against twittering chorus.
