IGNORANCE HARD TO. CREDIT
supsrstItious Belief Almost Cost
Woman In German Village Her
Life, It 10 Reported.

To cast the devil out Of a woman
living in a village Of the Lauenburger
district of Pomerania, Germany, three
hags tortured her. She appears to
have been Of sour and somewhat
hysterical disposition and three Of the
village gossips came to the conclusion
that her feelings were due to dia-
bolical possession and resolved to ef-
feet cure by means Of ancient en-
chantments known by them. It Is re-
ported. They first Of all gathered the
herbs needed for the purpose in the
forests at the proper conjunction Of
the. stars. Then tripod was formed
Of three chairs and to these the pa
tient was bound. Beneath her was
placed a pail Of redhot coal on which
the herbs were scattered. As the
fumes Of the burning weeds velled the
victim the three hags croned the
prescribed enchantment. The louder the
woman shrieked the louder they sang,
and after the process had been con-
tinued long enough to prove effective
they ran away, believing the devil
would run out of the woman after
them. She, however, continued to
shrek. Her cries were heard by
man who came to the rescue and un-
bound her.

Evarts by saying that he was sur
prised that Yale man, with all the
prejudices of that institution against
the superior advantages Of Harvard,

. Civilization Traced Ii Coins.

Man first had an opportunity to call
"heads or tails" more than 2,20C
years ago, when the practice Of stamp
ing q head on coins was instituted BY
the Greeks, with the likeness Of Alex
ander the Great. Some Of these an.
Client Greek coins are valuable as art
objects alone, the embossins being Of
rare workmanship and surprising any
thing to be seen on the coinage Of TO-
day. 1t is naturally an example Of
the great height which Greek culture
reached in that day.
The course Of civilization, in fact
can easily be traced in these coins
The Roman coinage, some Of which
bears the head Of Nero. is not equal
in beauty to that Of the Greek, but
nevertheless shows high quality Of
art. But the money Of the succeeding
Ozark Ages" Is crude in the extreme
and even the English ten.cent piece
Of. 1000 A. D. is childishly primitive In
comparison. *

why Her WATCH GOES WRONG
Various Causes Given for Undoubted
Fact That Wonan's Timepiecs 10
Generally Incorrect.

Punctuality is said to be the virtue
Of kings, but not Of women. The lat.
ter will not, however, admit their lacx
Of it. But when a lady has kept q
mere man waiting for her an indeh.
nltely long time her excuse, cynlcs de-
clare, Is really at hand. my watch
must be wrong. And, strange to say,
this reason given as an excuse, differ
ent from other excuses, Is almost al
ways valid The watches Of women
are much less exact than those Ot
men.
An Engllshman, Herbert Duke, WIN
occupied himself with this problem In
profound speculations, thinks he has
traced 1t to its source. He has ob.
served that the same watch, when
worn by his wife, runs very irregu-
larly, whereas when worn by him 1t
is perfectly correct. ."Now, how Is
it," he asks, shat, 'so many women
have such a baleful influence on
watches?" r.
Certainly much, Is due to the fact
that to women the watch Is less
necessary tool of life than a beautiful
adornment; that they care more for
its looking elegant on the wrist than
for its being right; that they handle
carelessly and inconsiderately this dell.
cate apparatus.
But there must be another more po.
tent cause. 1t has been observed that
the electricity contained in the human
body exerts a direct influence on the
delicate mechanism of the watch. It
may be that the small form of a won.
ans watch renders it very sensitive
to the electromagnetic influence that
emanates from the body.

Exercise for Blood Pressure.

Certain vigorous exercises are dis
tinctly beneficial in most cases of too
high blood pressure. At a recent
meeting Of the New York Academy of
Medicine DR.. G. Ward Champion de.
scribed his favorite treatment Of this
trouble, which included regular exer.
else.
In the earlier stages the following
program was advised: l. Morning ex.
ercise, u minutes; 2. Walk three
quarters Of an hour; 8. Vigorous ex'
ercise with sweating three times q
week; 4. In the open half a day. =,
In advanced cases the exercise
should be milder. OF course. exercise
is only part Of the general treat
ment, and there are many cases in
which 1t should not be given, especial
ly those in which the heart and kid
neys are seriously involved.

a Diamond Rivers. Il, Il

The geological formation Of the ia.
nous diamond region In the state Of
Bahia, Brazil, shows that at some
time in the history Of the world the
mountains there were thrown up by q
hot mass and the carbon in the stone
crystalized into gems. 1t was, in ef-
feet, an electric furnace on a gigantic
scale. In Brazilian diamond mining
natural water courses play an impor-
tant part. Water and the weather
gradually disintegrate the rocks, and
the diamonds are washed down into
gullies and the beds of rivers, whence
they are recovered by the miners. In
some places divers are employed to
work at the bottom of the rivers, fill
ing sacks with silt that contains the
diamonds. The river beds are rich
in precious stones which cannot be ex-
tracted advantageously, If at all, by
the methods now In vogue.
