The Star Of Brazil.

The most important cut stone of
Brazil Is that called the Star of the
South" which was found by a negro
woman in 1858. 1t was appropriated
by the mine owner who gave her in
return a pension for life. The stone
was sold for $4,000. the new owner
depositing it in the Bank Of Rio ia
metro and receiving on this security a
loan many times greater than the
value paid for the gem. The diamond
was at length sold for ten times the
amount paid. 1t was finally acquired
by a syndicate and cut in oval form
at a cost of $1,000 by a firm in Am
sterdam. An Indian rajah offered more
than 100000 for ii. but was refused.
A little later it was bought for the
gaekwar of Baroda.

When sewing on buttons place a pir

over it. Then when enough stitches
have been taken the pin may be re
moved and the button drawn a little
away from the cloth and the thread
wrapped several times around the
stem thus formed. Properly fastened
these buttons ought to stay ON as long

Illegal Drugs.

In a printed letter from Food Com
missioner Jas. II. Wallis, which he
has addressed Ito the Druggists of
Idaho" he called their attention to a
convention held in Pocatello almost
year ago at which it was pointed out
that it was good time to clean
house" by Kidding their shelves and
stores of all patent medicines that
did not conform to the laws of this
state and in any way violated them.
He further calls to their attention
several analysis of a number of
medicines now on the market which
are not only harmful but actually
poisonous in substance.
In closing his letter he advises all
druggists to communicate with the
jobbers and wholesale houses with
whom they do business and invite
them to make an examination of
their stocks and destroy every article
in conflict with the Idaho state laws.
The article is quite lengthy which
prevents its publication in full but
we give below a list of all patent
medicines that have been tested and
found to be in violation of the law
and also dangerous to use.
