those who have changed their minds.
The bill was for $50 for material and
making, and the dressmaker In de-
Tending her charges explained that
she had two establishments, one at
Putney and the other on Manchester
street The dress in question had been
made at Putney. but II 1t had been

no difference whatever IN material or

Purpy is socially igreproachable. 1t

The price Of dress Is therefore In

The Maxim Of Diamonds.

1t Is quite possible 10 manufacture
diamonds. Indeed Il famous French
man of science, MOissan, made very
large numbers 10y means Of his elec-
trio furnace. His process was TO dis
solve Jumps OF sugar In molten iron,
subiecting the solution 10 enormous
pressure. Lump sugar may be said To
consist simply OF water aud diamond.
II Is the case that the diamond is mere
" crystalliZed carbon. There are three
kinds OF carbon-plumbago graphite
snd diamond-the composition OF all OF
which is identical When charcoal Is
dissolved in molten iron. graphite Is
formed. All the diamonds found In
Borneo. Brazil. India and South Africa
are made In much the same manner
that is, by the action of great heat and
enormous pressure Charcoal formed
from wood has been baked into dia-
monds, the enormous heat and pres
sure of the earth's Interior causing the
beautiful white stone to crystalline out.
Although artificial distinct from imi-
tationJ diamonds have been made for
some time. the cost has been prohlb-
five. while the stones have been OF but
Insignificant size aud value.

lecturer, mot because II says anything
about that subject. but because OF the
nature Of II. To begin with, 1t Is the
sort Of lecture that anybody can see
through. Then am liable to make a
number OF breaks IN lis delivery, after
which II will be full Of funny cracks.
In addition. it requires a lot OF sand
TO produce Il, to say nothing OF the
lot cir employed. The agents have
blown 1t pretty much to the commit
tees.
Another point of resemblance be-
tween my lecture and glass Is that

though 1t is not q safe one to drop.
The principal reason for my selection
of this name anyway is my knowledge
of the fascination foreign titles have
for the American people"

hurried away the lecturer desisted.-

At the height OF TWO miles the sun
shines With fierce intensity unknown
below. where the dust and the denser
air scatter the rays. which. thus diff
fusel. lose their intensity while llu-
mining every nook and corner Of our
houses. At heights exceeding five miles
this diffused light is mostly gone. and
the sun shines a glowing ball, sharply
outlined IN n sky Of which the blue Is
so dark as TO approach blackness. At
the outer limits Of tie atmosphere the
sun would appear brilliant star Of
massive size among ether stars, and II
one stepped from It's burning rays into

Esstidious Smokers.

"Did you know" asked one member
OF q group In the hotel lobby. that an
Indian Is much more fastidious than
white man in the matter OF smoking?
| saw when | was In Montana several
of their war dances and the councils
afterward. You know. they sit In a
circle on the ground and pass the pipe
of good fellowship around In silence.
Each man takes two or three pufs
and then hands the pipe TO his next
neighbor But II you notice you Will
see that In the whole circuit which 1t
makes the mouthpiece Is never wet
The red man merely lays the end or
the stem against his lower lip and,
keeping his mouth partly open, draws
q deep breath. Removing the pipe. he
exhales the smoke and then perhaps
repeats the process. but be never puts
the mouthplece into his mouth In the
common 'paleface' fashion. Ii he Is
asked to smoke a peace pipe after

OF the pipestem where It has been In

0rinln of Rlackmail.

The etymology Of the expression
"blackmail' Is historically interesting.
IL appears TO have its origin on the
Scottish border and dating from times
when frequent political feuds between
the then two Kingdoms Of our Islands
tacitly justified sort Of perennial ter
restrial buccaneering as between Dor
derers OF each realm. Many Of these
depredators were outlaws on both sides
Of the border. Their neighboring VIC
tins TO save their cattle from being
lifted sometimes compounded for safe
ty by an annual payment as insurance
10 the bandits. This fee not only gave
them immunity. but entalled them
to protect them from rival freeboot-
ers. 1t was their mail" or PRO
lection" The mail" coach was so
named because 1t had its armed guard
with loaded blunderbuss on the dickey.
But the mail paid by border farmers
was not for honest royal protection,
but for guardianship by thieves and
hence was "black" mail. the color of
black being typical of what was nefa-
rious. whether In art or in guardian
ship. while the guardian Of this stamp
was known as the "backguard" OF the
district. The last named latter day
term Of reproach seems to have OBJ
tanned its expression originally as here
described. Field.

Perjury Penalties.

Perjury. besides being one OF the
oldest OF offenses in the catalogue of
crime, has always been very severely
punished. With the advance OF civili-
zation, however. fiendish punishments
have been replaced by more humane II
still severe penalties. In the days OF
the Roman empire any one who com
mitted perjury was thrown from q
precipice, while the Greeks branded
their false swearers. 1t is interesting
to note that when the latter embraced
the Christian religion the punishment
was altered TO that OF having the
tongue cut out. n sort OF punishment
which was considered TO ct the crime
In the early centuries. In the middle
ages some countries adopted the sys-
tenn of giving the perjurer the punish
ment for the crime be falsely accused

Dor had committed murder and the
charge was dlsproved the perJureT
would be sentenced to death. and the
other penalties Of the penal code were
exacted for the particular crime al
