Making Haste Slowly.

There is something extremely fas-
cinating in quickness; and most men
are desirous of appearing quick. The
great rule for becoming so is by not
attempting to appear quicker than
you really are; by resolving to under
stand yourself and others, and to know
what you mean, and what they mean
before you speak or answer. Every
man must submit TO be slow before he
is quick and Insignificant before he is
important.-Sydney Smith.

Qualities Of Precious Stones.

Opals are in certain respects alto
gether peculiar among gem stones.
Whereas other gems, such as the ruby,
the emerald, and the sapphire, owe
their cOlOrs to mineral elements by
which the crystals are stained, the
brilliant tlnts of the opal are due TO
its structure, ever SO many minute
cracks rejecting lights at different
angles from their edges. An amethyst

Frost at Varying Heights.

The reason frost occurs on low
lands when there is none on high
ground is because the higher ground
cools Off more rapidly than the lower,
and the upper stratum OF air being
thus condensed, flows downward and
deposits the moisture, which changes
into frost. Cold air is heavier than
warm and settles to the bottom.
