Bid the Night Pass
By JANE BELFIELD

Day is for mortal work,
When all men meet and part,
When that is done which must
Glad toll that stills the heart.
Day brings no dread-but night
Bid the night pass!
Night is for mortal Joy,
When each reaps what he sows;
When what we are cOmpels
The other one who knows.
Day brings no dread-but night!
Bid the night pass
Night with its waking call,
It's mockery OF peace.
Its silent space for pain
Repose but not Burcease.
Day brings no dread-but night!

OWED SUCCESS TO CHANCE
Accidental Discovery Enabled Man to
Build Machine That simpllhed
Diamond Separation.

A young man in the Kimberley dia-
mond mines had been experimenting
for months in an effort to find
way to separate diamonds from other
stones so as to eliminate the tiresome,
tedious, manipulating process. His ef
forts and labors had all been in vain,
but he refused to be discouraged and
adhered to his purpose.
One day he was working at his
bench when a small diamond and
garnet happened to be lying on q
board before him. In some way he
tipped the board at such an angle
that the two stones rolled together to-
ward the edge. 1t happened that there
was a small grease spot on the board,
and when the diamond reached It, II
was stopped and held, while the gar
net passed on and fell over the edge.
Wondering whether this had been
mere accident or whether the grease
possessed the peculiar property Of at
tracing diamonds and allowing other
stones to pass over II, he tried again
and again with the FIRST diamond and
with various others and found that II
a board were coated with grease and
vibrated slightly while held In an In
clined position the diamonds placed
on It would be caught and held BY the
grease. while all OF the ether stones
would roll on. He at once set to work
and as result Of his accidental dis
