TONS OF
PRECIOUS STONES
Estimate of Output of Diamond Mines
Throughout the World.
(Pall Mall Gazette.)

iran MAIL GaZette.)
Like all precious metals and stones,
the unit of weight usually employed
in regard to diamonds is the carat, of
which 151a go to make up single
ounce. To think of sacks of diamonds
by the ton staggers the imagination
indeed, the average annual output of
the Kimberley mines is not more than
half a ton all told.
Statistics have been published re-
Gently at Cape Town giving the output
for several years past of the Kimber
ley mines and the river diggings.
These yielded in the three years
19O3-O5 nearly 7,25ODOO carats, say
ton and half. The monetary value
of these diamonds was 14,450,0O0
pounds.
Since the first diamond was discoy.
cred on the banks of the Vaal in 1907
down to the end of 1906 it is esti-
mated that the total weight of dia-
monds extracted from the Griqualand
mines is over thirteen and a half tons
of a market value of fully 95,OO00OO
pounds.
If statistics of this sort can be
trusted-and in the case of the South
African yield they closely approximate
to the facts-only seventeen tons of
diamonds had been mined all over the
world to the end of 1901. With the
same relative output since that year
from Brazil and India the worlds out
put of diamonds is now more than
twenty tons.
The figure seems small, ccsNS' tging
the ages diamonds have bel P'%orked
In India and elsewhere in the east,
and must be largely guesswork with
respect to the output In antiquity. 1t
is, however, certain that more dia-
monds have been placed on the mar
ket in the last forty than in the prev
ious thousand years.

PACKED MURDERER
AWAY IN 4 BOX

A vegetable Chinaman. one of the
well-known morning fruit and veget-
able peddlers, is telling a story, with
much glee, of the alleged escape of a
fellow countryman from the clutches
of the police. He states that the Chi
nese is a murderer and that he has
for some time been hiding from the
police. his friends finally getting him
aboard a steamship bound for the
Orient.
That no arrest might be made at
the last moment, the supposed muir
derer's friends put him in box, IN
which holes for the admission of air
had been bored, and shipped him as
freight.
If there is any truth in the story It
will go hard with the Chinese presum-
ed to be escaping. If it is discovered
that he is not freight he will be treated
as a stowaway and if his box is not
suspected he will likely suffocate
among a lot of other freight.
Perhaps, however, his thoughtful
friends arranged with Chinese aboard
to stow him away and feed him. There
is also the possibility that the veget-
able-vender who is telling the story
has hit on the idea OF being enter
tanning as a means of advertisement
and, by telling the story, sells two
heads of lettuce where before he sold
but one.

NOTABLE MEDICAL DISCOVERY
OF Special Value to Many Here In Shcp'
herdst0wn

One Of the most notable discoveries
and one that undoubtedly appeals
more than anything else to many
people here in Shepherdstown is the
combination of stomach remedies In
the Mi-o-na treatment. This pres
cription has worked wonders, and
there is now no excuse for anyone
suffering with indigestion or weak
stomach.
1t acts specifically upon the muscles
of the stomach and bowels. strength.
sning and stimulating them SO that
they readily take care Of the food
that is eaten. 1t also increases the
flow of gastric juices, thus getting
from the food the nourishment that is
necessary for health and energy.
The symptoms Of indigestion are
numerous. such as distress after eating,
hatulsnce, heart. burn, sick headaches,
dizziness aud irritability. These are
all dispellsd by few doses Of Mi-o-na
when the trouble 10 recent, but just as
surely in long standing and chronic
cases if the treatment il followed for
a reasonable length of time.
So positive are the good effects fol-
lowing the use of Mi-o.na that the
remedy is sold by Reinhart's Pharmacy
Under an absolute guarantee to re.
fund the money if it should fail to
cure.

BETTER THAN MEDICINE.
Breathe Hyomeis Tonic Healing and be
Cured Of Catarrh.

Nature has remedy for catarrh, q
treatment that is far better than dos
ing the stomach with medicine.
1t is the healing oils and balsams
OF Hyomsi which medicates the air
you breathe, reaching the most re-
mote air cells in the nose. throat and
lungs. killing all catarrhal germs, and
restoring health to the mucous mem.
brans.
In using Hyomei you are treating
your catarrhal troubles with the only
natural remedy, for it gives 4 curative
air bath to the air passages that ha,
as powerful healing and antiseptic eff.
feet as that found in the mountains
where the pine forests give off their
fragrant and healing balsams.
Breathe the invigorating aud heal
ing Hyomei, and see how quickly you
will get relief from your catarrhal
troubles.
Reinhart's Pharmacy have seen 90
many cures, even the worst cases Of
catarrh, with offensive breath, rising
from mucus, frequent sneezing, drop
pings in the throat and spasmodic
coughing. that they feel warranted in
selling Hyomei under an absolute
guarantee to refund the money if il
does does not do all that is claimed
for it. They take aR the risk.

Pastor Of Elk Branch Church.

Resolutions adopted by Elk Branch
Church at the resignation of It's pastor,
Rev. J. e. Triplett, Sept Is, 1907:
Whereas, our pastor in the Providence
of God feels called upon to lay down
the work as pastor of the Elk Branch
Church, for which he has preached so
faithfully and earnestly for the last
fourteen years, and has requested this
congregation to unite with him in re-
ouesting Winchester Presbytery TO
dissolve the pastoral relations so long
and pleasantly existing between us,
Therefore, be it resolved, that al
though regretting very much the cir
cumstances that necessitate the sever
ance of a tie so sacred, we feel con-
strained to ncquiesce In our pastor s
request. and in doing so wish TO bear
testimony to his faithful ministratIons
of the Word among US during the time
he has been our pastor.

Should Football Be Abolished.

Many teachers and professors last year
decided that football should be abol-
ished, but it isn't going to be suppressed
for the simple reason that there's moth
ing to take its place. Other games have
not the vim and dash lat this one has
nor do they appeal so favorably to the
American youth. In medicine the same
argument can also be offered. Take
Hostetter sStomach Bitters for instance.
Search where you will you'll find moth
ing to take Its place when it comes to
curing dyspepsia, indigestion, costive-
ness. poor appetite, belohing, bloating,
kidney troubles, vomiting. headache,
female ills, colds or malaria. fever and
ague. Our "a years record Of cures
proves our claim and fair trial will
convince you beyond all doubt. We

to be in accordance with the pure food
and drug requirements. Insist on hav'

Pastoral Relations dissolved.


A copy of the paper read by Rev. ]. e.
Triplett to the congregation OF Elk
Branch Church at his resignation Sep
tember 8, 1907:
Beloved brethren, the time has ar
rived in the life OF our little daughter
when she must have the advantage OF a
good school. and as there is none near
or than Shepherdstowr, we have de-
cided to move there; and as that will
impose additional labor upon me In the
discharge of my pastoral work. and as
my field of labor is larger than | can
work to advantage, have decided, at
ter careful and prayerful consideration
of the whole matter, to honestly and
earnestly request you to unite with me
In requesting Presbytery to dissolve the
pastoral relation between myself and
Elk Branch Church, which has existed
so pleasantly and cordially for more than
fourteen years. :.
OF course, having served you so long
as your pastor, having baptized your
children, married your sons and daugh-
tiers, ministered to your sick and dying
and buried your dead, feel bound to
many OF you by strong and tender ties
OF affection, the severance OF which can
not but give me pain, yet / deem 1t
best that these ties be sundered.
The question, then, which ask you
