The Sapphire which adorns the sum- mit of the English crown is the same that Edward the Confessor wore In his ring, When Pizarro sacked Peru many gems were obtained, but a monstrous emer- ald, as large as,an ostrich egg, called the "Great Mother," was hidden by the natives and has never been found. Dean Stanley's Bad Ila:ulwrlting, Dean Stanley's bad handwriting is a matter of comm'oh notoriety, and 1 have often been asked if it was true that the printers refused to set it up. The fact is that when the "copy" for the History of the Jewish Church was sent in, the printers deported that they would have to charge a special rate for com- position, as no man could set up such manuscript on the ordinary terms. We, accordingly, had the work copied out by a skillful amanuensis before it was set in type, as this proved to be the ]east expensive way of meeting the difficulty. Once he wrote to my father a letter on an important matter, but there were some passages In it which in spite of every effot, proved unde- cipherable. My father was consequent- ly compelled to underline these• sen- tences and return the ,letter, with a request that they might be rewritten. In due course the dean replied : "If ' you cannot read my writing, I am sure I cannot do so, but I think I meant to say " so and so, and the sentence was rewritten in a form scarcely more leg- ible than before.—John Murray, in Good Words.

Perhaps there are eyes that watch us --eyes to which our little ambi- tions and achievements seem as trivial, as inconsequent, as the busy flies seem to us. The May afternoon was more than warm—it was hot. Summer had hu:- ried Into the world, unexpected and un- invited. Perhai.s that was what made Jasmyn Meredith lead a little pink ear to something she had resolved, over and over, that she would not hear—the pas- sionate, illogical, alts gether absurd love -making of a young fellow who would not have taken his university degree till n month later on. He was 21, to be sure, and she only 18; but at 18 a girl believes herself already a woman. She lisened, and then she said, with a smile : "Why, you are a boy." , "A wise boy," he answered, "who knows enough to love you, and who will have all the longer time in which to love you because he begins early." "I'm glad you are to be a lawyer," - she answered somewhat irrevelant;y, us it seemed to P,obert Marsh. "Why ?" he ventured. "Because I now see that you have, after all, a logical mind. Your powers of argument might be thrown away in any other profession." And then she added : "I:t takes a good while t o get admitted to the bar. "It shan't take very long in my case," he answered, "if you will promise me my reward for making haste." "011, yes," she said, "I will come to court and hear your first plea." "What ?" he cried a little scornfully. "No, I want you to listen in private to my first argument, and be convinced by it," "Ah, but you are not a lawyer yet— you must wait." "You can keep me waiting as long as you please—it is for you to say—but I have told that I love you. You can't get away from that. 1'11 trust you to remember, and when any other man tells you the same story 1-1 will be his judge. You shall think of my love and my words, and you shall ask yourself whether he loves you as well." Jasmyn smiled a little at this out- burst, and then she Bald, with an air of sweet tolerance : "Dream your dream, gentle youth; it may keep you from some worse folly," "And you will not even be here for class day ?" "'So; we sail on Saturday. My mother Is half English by birth, and more than half at heart, She Is' sighing for May- fair. We shall go to New York to -mor- row." "And this is good -by ?" He looked for a mbment into her eyes. His lips were athirst for hers, but he knew her too well to venture anything she would have the right to resent. He contented himself with a hand clasp; but there was a tone In his voice she would not soon forget as he said : "You will remember." • . r . i • Three years went by, and still Mrs. Meredith and her daughter had not re- turned to America. May and June found them in London. Later on they went to Homburg—beloved of the Prince of Wales and Mr. Chauncey De - pew. They divided their winters be- tween Rome and the Riviera. Robert Marsh heard of their movements only from the kind newspapers, for Jasmyn had decreed that there should be no correspondence. It would hinder him in his studies, she said, and she had no " Wile, Yt)U ARE .t BOY " time for It. She thought of hlm now and then, and wondered a little wheth- er—as she put it to herself—he was as foolish as ever, In fact, she thought of him most often at the times when she should have thought of him least—when some other man appeared inclined to tell her the old story. She was a social success, even in Lon- don, where there are so many fair com- petitors, but she deftly managed to avoid proposals for the most part; and when she had to say no to say 1t so gently as to make no enemies, Her another had not interfered hitherto. Mrs. Meredith was too wise a woman not to hasten slowly, but now the time seemed to her to have come when a t on - !n -law would be desirable. "You are 21 now," she sad to Jas- myn, "Yes, mumsie, Of Bourse you ran eas- ily remember my birthday, since you are also a Mayflower." "Yes, and a year before I was 21 I had married your father. He never, caused me but one sorrow, and that was when he died. I wish you as happy a lot as my own, and 1 think you are old enough to marry." Jasmyn lifted her pretty eyes in such - wise that they asked a question. "Yes," her mother answered musing- ly. "Perhaps you have not seen, but 1, who have lived twice as locg as you, can see clearly that Lord '4afne)ord is only waitng the oppartt'rlity to ask you to be Lady tlainsford." "That old fellow !" cried Jasmyn, ir- eevereutly, "He is 39," geld Mrs. Meredith, smil- ing. "That does not seem so venerable to most of the world as it seems to you. Do you see anything else in him to complain of ?" "I haven't thought. Why should I ? He Is very well, I suppose, but I see no reason why I should care for him more than for another," "Ah, well, you must know him bet- ter." and the opportunity was not long in coming, It seemed as if fate were on the side of his lordship. Wherever the Meredlths went they were sure to meet him—and he let it be seen, clearly F nough, that it was for Jasmyn's sake he' had come. He did not trouble him - "set le. -oa felt to thi,nce with :anygz*e elR4, - to was.4t her el4+ 'e'l+ir?i aloe rods in the xsilt:; anti if elle tvexlt to a er�ien.Pe t ,. hero :lie ',wee also ,laant n was. teed lnetu.ra.113t, 'o. recei-ye, 'w;ltjlotlt 8 e 1pf', .What..a sen' of other .gtti, sought vainly, had `a dlatinet 0110 a of its owns, 'and iaarclQainsford had toe, advantage of being Old enough .to know the world and' its WEVa, l; Ie Was 410-, tinctly high bred.

Indeed she theught that very possibly she should be later on. One night they were sitting out a dance which she had promised him. Ile had perauaded•her to go into the con- servatory instead of dancing, and she sat on a low seat over which some strange, foreign plant leaned. An odor that seemed like incense burned at tie' shrine of some old-time god half intoxi- cated her. And there and then Lorcl Gainsford told his love story, She had charmed him from the first, he said; and now he loved her. Would she—At that very instant it seemed to her as If she heard a voice from afar, oh, se far, away—a voice that sa.d : "Wait !" And just then, before she had spoken at all, her partner for the next dance appeared, and Lord Catnsford' said, with that cool self-possessi en that be- longed to his age and his rank : "I shall see you to -morrow." That night sleep did not come to Jasmyn. She lay with wide open eye', vaguely 'wonde:erg wheat ehoulcl snc 6118 SA8' it Ye,tryn MAN W'IHITING. say to Lord Gainsford ? Could she love him—and why not ? W.;u'd she be happy as his wife ? How much there would be to make her so. Then suddenly it seemed to her as if the room opened its windows Co the stars and the infinite night. and she looked far, far off, as perhaps we all shall look when death has taken us by the hand and fed us far away from what we now call life. She knew that her vision had gone beyond the sea, and that it was a room in New York in which she saw a young man wilting, He had Just turned a page, -She did not know how his letter • began, but she read these words : "I am 24 now, and you are 21. You can no longer call me a boy, I was ad- mitted to the bar a year age). I have succeeded so well that in October I shall make my first important plea. Re- member that you promised to hear it. I will cross the sea and bring you back in time. I shall be with you aTpT,t as soon as this letter. I have obeyed you hitherto in keeping silence. I write now because I wish you to know before we meet that I am unchanged.** And when she had read thus far it seemed to her that suddenly the w.n- dows that had opened CO the vast [esu of the night were closed and she was alone - What did it all mean ? She was not asleep. It was nu dream. Plainly, as if she had held the sheet in her own hands she had read those written words. Plainly as if he had been in the room with her she had scan etc b .rt M.,rsh, What had made this pre s,l1e ? Could it be that she hail cared for him all along more than she knew ? And he would be on his way to her—p rh•eps almost at once. She shou'd see hem, hear him, understand, p rhaps, t,y what unknown power this vision heed leen vouch' afed. .flow should she an- swer Lord Gainsford to -morrow ? Then once more, as 1f from same fertheai star, she heard, as she had heard in the conservatory, the one word : "wait !" Yes, she would waft. She would de- cide nothing until she knew. She turn- ed on her side and drew a lo::g, calm breath, and then sleep, the delinquent, kissed her lips and led her at last into dreamland. The next day Lord Galnrford pleaded his own cause, but he pleaded it In vain, "If you will wait two weeks," Jas- myn said, "I will answer you then. If I say anything to -day it must be 'No.' I do not feel that I understand mys'Ir. Will you give me time, or shall It end here ?" •f course he gave her time. IIs turned to Mrs, Meredith, Mrs, MereJith was his senior by three years; therefore she was a safe as well as a sympathe:lc confidante. The two weeks were not over, In flet only nine days had passed, when a let- ter came to Jasmyn, In a hand she used to know. She opened, She read tile first page, and then she turned the leaf, and there she saw the very sentences elle had read when the windows of her maiden chamber opened into the in- finite night, And that same day Robert Marsh fol- lowed his letter. Then Jasmyn Me e- dlth knew for the first time her own heart's secret, The love that was strong enough to conquer time and space and speak to her across the estranging sea, was the love of her own life, as well as of her lover's. The next day she told her mother that she made up her mind. Naturaly Mrs. Meredith did not like it, but she was helpless. John Meredith had left his fortune to be equally div) ie I be tween his daugther and his wife, en -1 after Jasmyn was 21 she was nhsolutely her own mistress. Mrs. Meredith would fain have been mother -In-law to a lord, but there was nothing to be said against Robert Marsh, oo she quietly resigned herself to the Inevitable, "You deserve," she said to Jasmyn, with a little vexed laugh, "that I should marry Lord Oafnsford myself." And that is precisely what she dtd six months later, An Old Saying. "Losing a ship for a ha'porth of tar" does not apply to a ship at all. It re- fers to sheep, which word is generally pronounced ship by rustics in England. The reference is to marking sheep with its owner's initials in hot tar. To lose a. sheep through Its not being thus marked, is losing it for a ha'porth of tar. NMT WOE ,ARE, AQJNAL '1"he 1$allna (tab) girl who tele. graphed invltatlens.

Good Luck In Matrimony Follows the (ilei {6'hu Makes Them. At all times garters have been eon;zfd- ered very important details of wonr n'o dress, and always associated in same manner with matrimony. Down through half a dozen centuries comes to us the custom practised to -day of hav- ing the garters as a finishing touch to a bride's toilet. The partloulae airs friend who is permitted to blip them into place is considered to stand the best possible chance of wedding happily before twelve months are out. A prospect of near ani htiss"ul m it- rimony is also shared .3y the fri,?n 1 who secures the privilege of ma eine a bride's garters, the proper p'ittern for which is now a circle of white sf:k elastic covered with embroidered white satin and clasped by a small gold buckle enamelled In white bow knotty. The garters of Marie Antoinette were pretty pink silk bands elaborately em- broidered on the upper hall In tiny jewels and gold thread. In an American family are preserved the bridal garters of a titled English ancestress. These are of white silk, nearly two inches broad, and decorated with round but- tons made of seed pearls°, from which suspend pearl cords and tassels two inches long.—Philadelphia Times. BADGES OF MATRIMONY. American Wotnen are the Only Ones Who do not Near DIstluetive Iii lgnin. Americans are the only women in the world who do not exhibit some sign of matrimony. Of course, those who fot- low in the wake of European etiquette would not appear with their daughters wearing a hat without strings, but the universal American woman buys what she likes, regardless of whether it be matronly or not, and, what Is worse, her daughters will select articles of dress only suitable to married women. In no other country is this the c 5. Among the Germans the badge of a married woman consists of a little cap or hood Of which they are very 1roue,- and "donning the cap" is a feature of the wedding day among the pe .sants of certain localities. The married women of Little ];susses are always seen, even In the hottest weather, with a thick cloth of dark hue twisted about their heads. In New Guinea a young woman lets her hair hang about her shoulders, but when she 1s married this is cut short, Ci Ines matronsbraid their hair like a h 'lmet, In Wadal the wives color their 1 pea by tattooing them with the thorns o1 the acacia and rubbing them with Iron filings; In parts of Africa th• marrie,l women perforate the out,r edges of their ears and their lips end s'.ickes'ows of grass stalks In them, an I among a certain Mongolian trite r,f per pie, t`te Manthes, the w' men wear suspenlea from their ear a little basket full of cotton, to which a spindle is attache!.

If there are any particularly dirty places on the carpet, It seems wise to take the small whisk broom and dust- pan and sweep up those places first be fore beginning the general ew.'e;in'. Then we shall not have to sweep this additional dirt all over the carpet. Af- ter the sweeping 1s done and the dust allowed to settle a little, if the nn,om is dipped in clean cold water, ail shaken out that can be, and the carpet then lightly brushed, the broom being dip- ped into fresh water every few mo menta, it will take up the surfaces dust that has fallen back on the carpet after being disturbed by the sweeping. Woolen In Business. There are few occupations In which women outnumber men. erre women teachers outnumber the men nearly three to one, and the same is true of boarding house keepers. The disparity is still greater, of course, among nurses, launderers and laundresses, housekeep- ers and stewards, seamstresses and ser- vants. The total number of servants in the country is 1,026,000, of whom only 237,000 are males. Women take the lead numerically in typewriting, In dress- making, millinery, flower -making, box - making, as cotton mtli operatives, In silk mills, In making corsets and but• tons and hosiery. 1 The latest discovery in the ecienti• Go world is that nerve centres located in or near the base of the brain con- trol all the organs of .the body, and when these nerve centres are deranged the organs which they supply with nerve fluid, or nerve force, are alto deranged. When it is remembered that a serious injury to the spinal cord will cause paralysis of the body below the injured point, because the nerve force is prevented by the injury from reaching the para- lyzed portion, it will be understood how the derangement of the nerve oentree will cause the derangement of the various organs which they supply with nerve force; that is, when a nerve centre is deranged or in any way diseased it is impossible for it to sapply the same quantity of nerve force as when in a healthful condi- tion ; hence the organs which depend upon it for nerve force suffer, and are unable to properly perform their work, and as a result disease makes its appearance. At least two-thirds of our chronic diseases and ailments are due to the imperfect action of the nerve centres at the base of the brain, and not from a derangement primarily originating in the organ itself. The great mis- take of physicians in treating these diseases is that they treat the organa "luta not the nerve centres, which ars the cause of the trouble. The wonderful cures wrought by the Great South American Nervine Tonin are due alone to the fact that this remedy is based upon the fore- going principle. It cures by rebuild,• ing and strengthening the nerve centres, and thereby increasing the supply of nerve force or nervous energy. This remedy has been found of infinite value for the cure of Nervous- ness, Nervous Prostration, Nervous Paroxysms, Sleeplessness, Forgetful- ness, Mental Despondency, ;`Tervoue- ness of Females, Hot Flas , Sick Headache, Heart Disease. fib first bottle will convince anyone that a cure is certain. South American Nervine is with- out doubt the greatest remedy ever discovered for the cure of Indigestion, Dyspepsia, and all Chronic St ach Troubles, because it auts througit the nerves. It gives reifuf in one day, and absolutely effects a permanent pure in every instance. Do not allow your prejudices, or the preju- dices of others, to keep you from, using this health -giving remedy. It is based on the result of years of scientific research and study. A single bottle wy11 convince the most incredulous.
