father to fill the buckets Suddenly she cried out,
"Oh, papa, here and the vinegar cruet
stopper | have found!'.
He went to look at it. Sure enough, it was
cruet stOpper-or at least it looked very much like
one. Sitting down upon rock, his attention was
diverted from the object in his hand, and he
amazed to that the boulder literally stuffed
with "cruet stoppers thick plums in pud-
ding to borrow his own expression. He knew, of
course, that they were natural crystals but not
until he had submitted specimens to expert for
examination did he learn that they pure corun-
durn-ranking in hardness next to the diamond, and
differing in nothing but color from rubles. Not for
several years did he learn that Craig Mountain was
a solid mass of corundum bearing rock-the great
est solid body of valuable mineral in the known
world and beyond all comparison the most ex-
tenSlve, purest and most valuable deposit OF corun-
dunn in existence.
The announcement of the discovery of whole
mountain of pure corundum was received with
derision. All such deposits that had been
found small impure, and scattered; and it
several years before the biologists of the Do
minion could be induced to take sufficient interest
in the matter to make exhaustive examination.
Their report proved authoritatively the existence
in Craig Mountain of corundum in sufficient guam
titles to supply the wants of the world for centuries
this wealth has been exploited; but large mining
and reduction plant is now in operation, and the
product is being shipped all over the world.
Corundum is the most valuable of all known
abrasves, indispensable in the manufacture of edge
tools farming implements, and nearly every fin
ished product of iron and steel. Emery is i'm
pure and inferior form, consisting of particles of
corundum found in connection with oxid of iron.
No doubt the use of emery-now imported largely
from Greece-wl become smaller and smaller each
year. until it altogether the purer product
obtained from the " cruet shoppers" of Craig Noun
tain be placed the market at price that
makes competition impossible.
1t is comforting example of poetic justice that
the little girl whose sharp eyes led the discovery
and opening of the great Canadian corundum mines
is now the wife of the mine superintendent and has
little girls of her who may still pick black
berries on the same old mountain provided they
take to keep at a safe distance from the
quarrymen, who are busily engaged blasting out
"cruet shoppers" exactly like the one found
years ago by their mother.

DIAMOND
L0UGH PITCHES
A GREAT GAME

After pulling himself out of several
holes with an exhibition of great head
work, hard luck story explains the
losing of yesterdays game for "Roxey"
Tough, the Normal tosser.
Throughout the game he held up
we'll. He made one, two, three story
in two consecutive innings, either
striking out his men or putting them
out on short, easy, infield hits, for
they positively could not find his
curly infield drop for long drive in
to the outfield.
The outfleld hits made were dropped
squarely into the hands of the boys
tending to the outer gardens, particu-
larly Mccormack, who was holding
down the summer fallowed ground in
left.
On different occasions, with three
men on bases Tough would pick the
next one with the funny ball he throws.
With man on third part of the time,
half way home, and the batter hitting
short one into Lough's hands, he
invariably brought his cool head into
action and scared the run back while
outed the runner at first. Truly,
Tough will make a second Peedy Davis
say the Normal fans.
The bunch of bunrs in the eighth
was a bit of misfortune that comes TO
the best of twirlers at times.
