WHERE WE FIND EMERALDS
Famous Muzo Mines in the Republic
Of Colombia Produce Finest
Gems.

The finest emeralds are found In
the Republic of Colombia, at the IA
nous Muzo mines in the department
Of Boyaca, seventy miles north by
west of Bogota, which have been
worked since 1858. The Spaniards
mined there in the middle Of the six
teenth century, but withdrew after
u time, owing to continual fighting
with the Indians; with the result that
for awhile the locality Of the mines
was unknown. They are now worked
by an English company, in partner
ship with the government. The emer-
aids at Muzo occur in calcite veins
running through black carboniferous
limestone in all directions and at all
angles. Often the limestone is COW
cred with earth, in which bushes and
trees are growing; this has to be
cleared before prospecting is possible.
When calcite veins have been located,
the side Of the hill is dug away in
banks" usually by Indians, whose
chief tool is a steel bar forged to a
point at one end. The pieces of cal
cite vein are examined specifically
for emeralds, and are then set aside
for conveyance to the sorting shed,
where detailed examination is made,
and the emeralds are divided into fif-
teen grades according to color, trans
parency, size, freedom from flaws, and
so on.

A GOOD BREAKFAST.
Some Persons Never Know What it
Means.

A good breakfast, a good appetite
and good digestion mean everything
to the man, woman or child who has
anything to do, and wants to get g.
good start toward doing it.
A Mo. man tells of his wife's "good
breakfast and also supper made out
of Grape-Nuts and cream. He says:
Il should like to tell you how much
good Grape-Nuts has done for my wife.
After being in poor health for the last
Is years, during part of the time
scarcely anything would stay on her
stomach long enough to nourish her,
finally at the suggestion of a friend
she tried Grape-Nuts.
Now, after about four weeks on
this delicious and nutritious food, she
has picked up most wonderfully and
seems as well as anyone can be.
Every morning she makes a good
breakfast on Grape-Nuts eaten just as
it comes from the package with cream
or milk added; and then again the
same at supper and the change in her
is wonderful.
