CUT THE FIRST DIAMOND.
An Angel Showed a Flemish Lad the
 Process.

With the exception of the few stones cut in Antwerp all the rough diamonds of the world are cut in Amsterdam. There the diamond cutting business is carried on in between seventy and eighty establishments which give em- ployment to twelve thousand cutters. The first cutting of diamond was accomplished four hundred and forty years ago. The ancients knew nothing of the hidden beauty of the stone cal led by Seneca The sage whose impas- sibility nothing can conquer. But even in the rough the diamond won the favor of princes: and very graduall,' departments revealed some of its fires. Until the Fourteenth Century enameled buttons were the chief articles of jew clry.
 In the beginning of the Fourteenth Century. when the price of enamels fell so low as to bring the decorated but tons within the reach of all purses,
 enameling lost the favor of the fine world and buttons of gold and silver ornamented with pearls. diamonds and colored stones took the place of the channels The finest of the stones then known was the diamond-a form less mass the size of a pigeons egg. a gem worn cn great occasions by the king of Portugal
 Tn the year l47o when Bruges was d residence city the court lived life of eXtravagant luxury. Men anu women i went about in garments stiff with go d and silver ornaments and sewed over with pearls and precious stones. But the stones were uncut and shapeless. Charles son of the duke of Normandy, owned a great diamond which he amused himself by exhibiting to his !.chaperon" but as he declared it's vir- tues he bewailed it's shape and its lack

 Yes; bring me d tool that will cut these accursed stones! l will give a fortune to the man that does it." From that hour the boy thought of nothing but to find means of conquer ing the hardness of the diamond. All day he did that bidding of his master: all night he sat at a rough bench in his attic trying in vain to make some i'm pression on a stone stolen from the worllroom. One night he fell asleep at his bench and dreamed that an angel said to him: Iron is the master cutter; steel is iron purified. Take the file, get powder; take thy steel and pow der it, then cut"

HELPFUL HINTS ON HAIR
HEALTH
scalp and Hair Troubles Gener
ally Caused by carelessness

Scalp and Hair Troubles Gener-
ally Caused by caEelsssness
Dandruf is a contagious disease
caused by a microbe which also
produces badness. Never use
a comb or brush belonging to
someone else. No matter how
cleanly the owner may be, these
articles may be infected with mi
crobes, which will infect your
scalp. 1t is far easier to catch
hair microbes than it is to get rid
of them. and a single stroke of an
infected comb or brush may well
lead to badness. Never try on
any body else's hat. Many a hat
band is resting place for mi
crobes.
If you happen to be troubled
with dandruff, itching scalp, fall
ing hair or badness. we have a
remedy which we believe will CON-
pletely relieve these troubles. We
are SO sure of this that we offer it
to you with the understanding that
it will cost you nothing for the
trial if it does not produce the re-
suits we claim. This remedy is
called Rexall "93' Hair Tonic.
We honestly believe it to be the
most scientific remedy for scalp
and hair troubles. and we know of
nothing else that equals it for ef-
fectivsness, because of the results
it has produced in thousandi of
cases.
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic is de-
vised to Danish dandruff, restore
natural color when its loss has
been brought about by disease,
and make hair naturally silky. soft
and glossy. 1t does this because
it stimulates the hair follicles,.
destroys the germ matter. and
brings about a free, healthy circu.
lation of blood, which neurishes
the hair roots, causing them to
tighten and grow new hair. We
want everybody who has any
trouble with hair or scalp to know
that we think that Rexall ''93''
Hair Tonic is the best hair tonic
and restorative in, existence, and no
one should scoff at or doubt this
statement until they have put our
claims to fair test, with the un-
derstanding that they pay us no.

give full and complete satisfaction
