Diamonds
By GEORGE FITCH,
Author OF eat Good Old Siygnsh.7

a DIAMOND Is a chunk of highly
~ compressed prosperity, and Is
used principally to announce the
same.
Diamonds are composed Of pure car
bon. Next to being honest. a diamond
Is the hardest thing in the world. When
it is found. 1t Is rough and unattractive,
and it takes months to grind it down
into a graceful shape. When a diamond
IS cut and mounted, it sparkles like best
seller conversation. A large diamond,
worn in the shirt front. is a beautiful
ornament, and usually detracts a great
deal of attention from the plain face
above it.
Diamonds are found in South Africa
and South America. The soil of the
United States is not iupregnated with
them, but if Broadway were to be swept
with a dragnet at night, and the results
boiled down. 1t would Weld upwards of
a carload of fine stones.
The diamond is used by young ladies
as an advertisement of their engage
ment, and nothing so sOlidifies the love
of a girl for her hero as a nice carat

Il dare say a more inconsistent man
has never filled a public office in the
state Of Texas than Gov. Colquitt He
IS inconsistency persOnified" Con-
troler Lane says that the real reason
the governor disapproved the bill is
because, had he approved it. the con-
troler could have forfeited the liquor
licenses of saloon keepers for all vio-
latiOns Of the liquor law, while at pres
ent there are only nine grounds
enumerated on which violations may
be had He says the governor vetoed
