"You may hold her and kiss her,

The pitiless passion winds toss her

Fierce frenzies beat on her quiet

Soul of my soul-and her lips to my
lips chill
God grant us grace!
What tho calm seas sigh penitence?
What tho glad skies, new shores,

What, oh mocking fate, when Hope is
dead,
Are these to me?

ENORMOUS DIAMOND
HIDDEN IN LONDON

The American Magazine for Febru-
airy Offices a camplete and authorita-
tive account of the recent discovery
of the greatest diamond of the world.
This gem is twice as big as the big
gest egg the biggest hen ever laid,
and it is invaluable Nobody knows
what it is worth, but $4,000, 900 is a
reasonable price. A man stumbled
onto it in South Africafp a remark
able way.
AT this moment the monstrous
stone is reposing in a bank on Hoi-
born Viaduct in London, quite close
to the home of the diamond mer-
chants in Hatton Garden. The very
name of that bank is kept a profound
secret, for in its strong room Is
treasure fit to tempt the most skill
full criminals on earth. And SO cost
ly matter is the showing of 1t to
the representatives of Oriental prin-
ces, to commercial syndicates and in
ternational associations Of diamond
dealers, that number of crystal fac
similes have been made and pros
pective buyers have TO be satisfied
with these replicas.
If, however. it is seen that they
mean business on a gigantic scale.
the insurance company is notified and
heavy premium paid by the owners
for the removal of the stone from the
strong room of the bank.

scale of rates incorporated i'll the bill
when it came from the committee on
miscellaneous corporations and to re-
store the bill to it's original form, which
provided that gas should be sold at
fiat rate Of "a dollar per thousand cubic
feet. A debate of several hours fol-
lowed, which was participated in by
Senators Hinman, Grattan, Hooker
and Cassidy. With the exception of
Senator Cassidy. all the speakers ia
vored restoring the bill to its original
form. which motion eventually pre-
vailed. The bill. which is one of two

Next to a draft, a damp house or
roosting place is the most prolific
cause OF colds in fowls Look after
the dryness and ventilation OF your
BOOSTING quarters also.
A plain cold can be told by the
fowls having a watery discharge at
the nostrils and eyes and the birds
throwing their heads and sneezing. a
plain cold Is easily told from the roup
by absence of cheesy substance In
the throat and nostrils of the birds
This cheesy mass always accompanies
roup. The head will frequently swell
with a cold, but the swelling is more
marked In roup. A common remedy
for colds is to apply kerosene to the
heads of the worst afflicted birds A
slight film of kerosene oil on the drink
Ing water will often cure mild colds In
q few days
Bronchitis Is the cold extended to
