There was a famous British on

Murray, who served in the expedi

andria, the troops having suffered
severely from want of water, his
literary requirements were of the
greatest service, instructing him
that Caesars army had been in the

in his portable hbrary), he found

A DIAMOND STORY.


A few years ago Ludwig Nissen,
. well known wholesale dealer Of
the Maiden lane district, was in TIE
Office OF diamond merchant in
London when stranger came IL
and offered an unusually beautiful
stone for sale. The Enghshmaa
did not care to buy. But Nissen
thought he saw '.s-gain. But he
was not wiling o-y until he
learned who own g stone and
where it had comt n. The man
said he represented a friend, a wo-
man, who did not care to have her
name disclosed. The American was
firm. If be could not learn the
owners name he would not buy.
The stranger said he would see the
woman and talk the matter over
with her.
The next day he came back and
took Mr.. Nissen to the woman's
home. She lived in a handsome
apartment in one of the most fash
ionable quarters of the city. 1t
turned out that she was a Russian
princess who, with her husband
and her daughter, had been driven
from Russia fos having taken part
in a nihilist movement. Of all
their large property they had saved
only their jewels. She opened Q
little safe and showed the Ameri-

diamonds he had ever seen. They
were worth 100000 or SS00.005.

YES! MAGICALLY!
CORNS LIFT OUT
WITH FINGERS

You simply say to the drug store
man, "Give me a quarter of an ounce
of freezone." This will cost very little
but is sufficient 10 remove every hard
or soft corn from ones feet.
A few drops of this new ether COM
pound applied directly upon a tender,
aching corn should relieve the sore
ness instantly, and soon the entire corn,
root and all, dries up and can be lifted
out with the fingers.
This new way to rid ones feet OF
corns was introduced by a Cincinnati
man, who says that, while freezone is
sticky, it dries in a moment, and sim
ply shrivels up the corn without In
flaming or even irritating the surround
ing tissue or ekin.
