RUBY IS JULY BIRTHSTONE
Gem Has Been Associated Through the Centuries With Some Remarkably
 Quaint Superstitions.

The ruby is the birthstone of July. It was associated in ancient times with many queer superstitions. How these old fancies originated or how they could have been palmed off on the pub lie 1t is difficult to imagine. The fact that the common people had implicit faith In them proves how very much more credulous the world once was than 1t is today.
 For instance, the ancients believed that if a ruby were worn about the neck 1t conferred the power of seeing in the dark. One wonders what mOnu- mental faker started this absurd con ceit and for what purpose. It was gen erally believed, however, possibly be- cause rubies were costly and the com mon people could not test the matter for themselves.
 The ruby also was supposed to be a talisman against evil spirits, the plague and poison. By the deepening of it's color it forewarned it's wearer against impending misfortune. If tied upon the forehead in linen cloth 1t was believed to be a specific for dis ease of the eye.-Brooklyn Eagle

 John A. Riggs issued the following statement:
 'I have made a clean fight for the gubernatorial nomination and realize that the race simply narrowed to an elimination process in order to defeat machine rule and rule by the moneyed interests. During the final days of the campaign much of my support op- posed to Colonel MRae went to MT Terral, as also did quite a large fol- lowing of the labor vote under the impression that Terral was the strong est man to defeat the so-called ring candidate, MT Powell This accounts in a large measure for the unusually heavy vote MT. Terral received
 ''I sincerely thank my friends who stood by mo and supported me when they realized that in order to defeat certain candidates, shifting of my support was deemed best, but who Loyalty supported me nevertheless. Mr. Terral also received a large number of women's votes, who shifted their strongest in the final days of the cam paign to defeat the so-called ring can- didate.

 Chairman Benson explained that this time would be necessary for an investigation of facts and intelligent application of the provisions of the act This section is one of those to which foreign steamship companies have objected and ultimately it Is ex- pected to be made the basis for diplo- matie conversations between the American and other foreign govern ments.
 This is the second suspension under the provision of the law that the ship ping board may certify to the Inter- state commerce commission that 1t de- sireS suspensions of ninety days dura- tion. The first suspension was eerti- fled on June 9. Announcing the fur ther certitication, Chairman Benson said:

 On the basis of the estimated popu- lation of 06,000,000 for the whole country, in 1920, an increase of ap- proXimately 14.000,0o0 in ten years Mir Siegel says sixty-fve or siXty7six new seats in the house must he ere ated If the ten states are to retain their present numerical representation. While precedent warrants the in crease. Mir. Siegel declares there is strong opposition to it on the part of some of the present representatives, while others favor reduction to as few as 300 members.
 MT. Siegel expects the work of framing the new apportionment bill in accord with the new population to begin with the reconvening of congress in December and he anticipates that the measure will be passed early in 1921.
 Every decade since 1790, with the single exception of 1S40 the house membership has been enlarged TO keep pace with the growing population.

 'The board has decided that ninety days suspension does not afford op- portunity for proper inquiry into the subject.

Calomel loses you a day! You know what calomel is. It's mercury; quick silver. Calomel is dangerous. It crashes into sour bile like dynamite, cramping and sickening you. Calomel attacks the bones and should never be put into your system.

Yankee Understatement.

A paragraph in the Companion about the mild retort of the man who was; kicked by his horse reminded sub scriber of her grandfather's story of John Teele. John was a Yankee team ster, who was trying one day to get q log down from the top of the pile. He tied rope to the log; then, that he might stop the log before it rolled tor far, he tied the other end of the rope around his waist, John pulled; the log came down and snatched the teamster halfway down the mountain. Some weeks later John was able to sit up and discuss the accident with a sympathet- ic neighbor.

That Fate, Rather Than Extinction,

The ingenious explanation that they
wouldn't have eaten neighbors had
beef, mutton or pork been more album
dant on the early New Zealand market
stamps the native Maorls as a race
with working brains, and their phy-
sIques have long been praised. IL Is
not surprising, therefore, that as
correspondent records, these aborig-
inals are among the few In modern
times who. instead Of promptly vanish
ing, will doubtless be absorbed into the
white mans family.
Fifty thousand pure-bred Maoris still
remain, half Of whom are practically
civilized. Many have attained to high
political position. There are four Mao
ri members In the house OF representa-
tiyes, two in the legislative council
and one Is an important minister In the
executive council.
Themselves Polyneslans OF remote
East indian blood, these natives, be u
added, are not strictly aboriginais.
