NOT DEAR AT s230,0oo.
Necklace Of Forty-fiVe Pearls Which
 Was Three Years in Assembling.

Lying in shallow, velvet lined trays in a showcase at this jewellers estab- lishmcnt were lot of pearl necklaces. All were beautiful. but there was one in particular that caught the eye. says the New York Sun.
 ~How much is that2" the visitor asked pointing at it through the glass.
 That" said the salesman. opening the door at the rear of the case as he spoke to get it. and then he laid d couple of thicknesses of soft and slightly crumpled tissue paper on top of the case and laid the necklace down on that to keep the pearls off the glass. Why that" he said. look ing at the price marked in plain fig ures on the tiny. tag attached to it. lis S230. coo"
 It was a little more costly than this locker had thought, and he asked how many pearls there were in it, and it turned out that the salesman had never counted them. but he did so now. lifting the necklace and running the pearls over between his fingers in what appeared to be the profess sional way of counting pearls thus strung in groups of five at a time.
 There were forty-five pearls in this necklace, which was eighteen inches in length; and surely it was beauti- full. but wasn't $230.000 a good deal to pay for any necklace?

SPORT WITH LEAPiNG TUNA.

It used to be the universal belief that a really big fish, say over 150 pounds couldn't be landed. writes c. r. Holder. in February Outing. But it is the unexpected that happens. and one day. with a 16-ounce jointed rod and 21 thread line I brought in the first really big tuna ever taken. a fish that tipped the scales at 1S3 pounds and was over six feet long
 considered this catch more luck. and for two years held the coveted record then a fellow townsman. and one of the best sea anglers in the country. Col. C. P Morehouse. after q four-hour struggle, brought in a tuna which weighed 251 pounds and which has remained the record of the Tuna club and of the world ever since despite the fact that thousands of dol lars have been spent in heroic efforts to beat it.
 Thus tuna fishing was introduced to anglers. The day after my catch l founded the Tuna club. not espec- tally to take this fish, but to start movement for protecting the fisheries and establishing high standards of sports in southern California, where there were none at all at that time
 The organization soon became ia nous. due to the extraordinary eX ploits of it's members and because no one could vote unless he had taken a 100-pound tuna under the club speci- fications. This rule holds today and has produced. with the tournaments. the most select and envied trust" in the angling world. About 60 men qualified. and if their adventures could all be collected they would press the credulity of the laymen to the break ing point. Yet they were true, and no such adventures were ever heard of before. All these men fought their game with not line much larger than an eyeglass cord, and with rod and reel, establishing a standard of sport that has challenged the admiration of the world of angling.

IN FOOD
What Clergyman's Wife Found.

The wife of a Minnesota clergyman found the solution of her troubles in a simple change of food which she says:
 My case proves that proper food will cure almost any ail. For years I suffered from dyspepsia which became chronic and was treated by some of the most skilful physicians but was not cured
 Medicine would help for time but the old troubles would always return because the cause was still there. and kept me weak and sickly most of the time. I had the grip every gear for five years, always suffered from colds and my whole condition showed that did not get the proper nOurishment from food.
 Finally I began eating Grape-Nut according to directions I may say that since that time my stomach has not troubled me at all but remark able change took place. All through the long cold winter I ate nothing but q saucer of Grape-Nuts and cream in the morning and no matter how severe the cold did not suffer and I did llot nave lne STip or even Coiu-
 Grape Nuts food certainly nourished me until I have a-strong constitution. feel like new person, and indeed never was healthier in my life

The effect of impure ard pure blood
 IS seen at once on the face.

Impurities fill it with poisons, the flesh hsrbors these poisons. and the lungs cannot eliminate them as they should.
 It needs a purifier. Stuart's Calcium Waters give the blood through the same channels as food all the strength and stimulus necessary to remove the impurities and to make rich corpuscles which will feed the body or fight its enemies.
 Time was when poor blood purifiers had to be used. such as herbs and roots powdered minerals. etc, but thanks to latter day achievement the Stuart process gives to the system the full rich strength of Calcium SulDhide. the greatest blood purifier known to sci ence
 These little powerful waters are pre- pared by one of the most noted expert pharmaceutical chemists in the world and so far as science is concerned no expense has been spared to make them perfect.
 They contain Quassia, Golden Seal and Eucalyptus. each a most powerful aid to the blood of man.
 Thousands of people use these waters with religious zeal. and their testimoni- al evidence is an unfailing source of interest to one who reads it.
 Melancholy marks every suffering woman, yet one should be armed with this knowledge and make up ones mind to try Stuart's Calcium Waters at once. Every druggist carries them.
