Let Action Follow Thought.

A philosopher once said that there
Is no value to any thought, no matter
how fine or noble, unless 1t is trans
formed into action. If you feel up
lifted by beautiful music, do SOME
thing that will tally with your mood.
and then the music has been worth
while. If you read something that is
inspiring, at once do something, no
matter how small, that Is a little diff
ferent and a little superior to your
routine. The theory applies with equal
truth to the reading Of books as more
than a pastime.-Chicago American!

Gus while he had the stone and Habib's misfor-
tunes came after he sold the stone. Sir Francis
Hope never had the stone and May Yohe never
saw it. All Of which states Il. Edgar Wilson, as
aforesaid.
Nevertheless and Notwithstanding, the reputn-
ton Of the Hope diamond is probably blasted for
all time. If it hasn't the "evil eye there are
millions Of superstitous people who believe it has
and will give credence to everything evil they may
read about it.
They may, in the course of time, even attribute
TO its malign influence the automobile accident
which made Vinson Mclean at his birth the sole
heir to the great Walsh fortune. In 1903, wheR
automobiles were rare, Vinson Walsh, brother OF
Mrs. Mclean, was killed in a smashup ut NewporG.
Mrs. Mclean, who was then Miss Evelyn Walsh.
was also in the car and received injuries which
made her an invalid for a year.
Two other children have been born TO Mr.. anSi
Mrs. Mclean, both boys, one of whom is four and
the other q year old.
At the time of the probating Of his ~grandfa-
Their Walsh's will it was found that there was
only $6,21O0O0 to be divided between the two heirs
OF the Mclean union, Vinson and John r., Jr.
Young Mclean was q democratic youth. For
several years his boon companion was n small
negro boy. His tutors said he was an exception
ally bright student, and he was popular with his.
mates.
lie was fond Of animals. Fifty-six SHROPSHIRE
sheep were sent all the way from Colorado to Bar
Harbor by express for him. They came from UZs
big Walsh ranch, Wolhurst, near Denver. He
himself directed the purchase of a great flock of
white Brahma chickens, ducks and turkeys, a Rus-
sian wolf hound, six blooded terriers, two Crest
Danes and a half score of other dogs and a great
number Of ponies.
Are the McLeans superstitious about the bcaE-
tiful gem? Nobody seems to know definitely. But
one of the stories about the stone since it has been
in their possession seems to indicate that it's evil
reputation had its effect upon them.
Anyway, as the story goes, there was some hitch
about the payment Of the purchase price of tie
stone. 1t evidently was not because of lack of
money. There was a law suit. In the course uf
the controversy stories were printed to show that
Mr.. Mclean harbored a feeling Of timidity be-
cause of the evil history attributed to the stone,
and that he stipulated that the jewel should be
taken back by the Cartier firm in the event THAI
any tragedy occurred in the Mclean family within
six months. Whether that story Is true is not
clear, but eventually formal announcement was
made by attorneys connected with the suit over
the purchase price that a compromise had been
effected.
