Picks Up Fortune.

London. September 16,-A
workman this morning found on
a sidewalk practically the entire
pearl necklace, valued at $780,
900, which was stolen July 16
while in transit by mail from
Paris to London.
The man was going to work
in Highbury, a northern district
of London, when he noticed the
pearls lying in tissue paper. On
picking them up, he found there
were fiftY-eight. He took them
to the nearest police station,
where they were at once recog-
nized as part of the famous neck
lace, from which only one pearl
is now missing.
A reward of $50, 600 W hich was
offered for the return of the
Jewels wills probably go entirely
to the workman.
The necklace, said to be the
most valuable in the world, was
in transit between two dealers
when stolen. Rumor indicated
that it was destined for Mrs. w.
X. Vanderbilt.

derstood and is Just Beginning to
Be Appreciated.

Few well-meaning creatures have
been more thoroughly misunderstood
than the homely, meditative and retir-
ing toad.
Formerly the toad was considered
a venomous reptile but in our day
its habits have been more carefully
observed and it's great value to the
pomologist and gardener has been
fully established on account of its
propensity for destroying insects.
We should, therefore, cultivate the
friendship and assistance of the in
sectivorous reptiles, including the
striped snake, as well as that of the
birds.
Every tidy housewife detests the
cockroach, mice and other vermin.
Two or three domesticated toads
would keep the coast clear of these
and would be found more desirable
than cat, as they are wholly free
from trespassing on the rights of man
as does the cat. The toad is possess
ed of timid and refining nature, low
ing dark corners and shady places,
but under kind treatment becoming
quite tame
Many instances might be cited of
pet toads remaining several years in
a family and doing most valuable serv-
ice with no other compensation than
that of immunity from persecution.
In Europe toads are carried to the
cities to market and are purchased by
the horticulturists, who by their aid
are enabled to keep in check the null.
