Certain of the Stones. Tihe fascination of precious stones goes' faaî'jdéépef-'thWn is thought- by those who have seen them only in . the-shops of the jewelers and On -the necks o_f women. A friend of. the Lbhdon Spectator writer' who Visit-' edythe ruby mines in Burmah some .yé-àrs ago and - brought b ack with her a handful of unset, rubies,, sapphires sapphires Arid aquâriiarirtës , has* never reconciled herself to. having them made into conventional ornaments, but keeps them by her in the rough t-o feed her eyes at these little fountains fountains of pure color. It is a notable fact that the names of the precious -stones are, almost without exception, as beautiful as the stones ' themselves. Few passages passages in literature illustrate, this better than Saint John's description tif. the New Jerusalem. "The first- foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the. third a chalcedony, the fourth an emerald, the fifth sardonyx, sardonyx, the sixth sardius, the seventh seventh chrysolite, the'eighth beryl, the ninth a topaz, the tenth a chryso- phrasus, the eleventh a jacinth, the twelfth an amethyst. And the twelve gates "were twelve pearls, every several gate was of one pearl. To these we may add diamond and ruby, turquoise and opal, avantur- ine, carnelian, lapis lazuli and tourmaline. tourmaline. A friend reminds us that the Jews, with their racial instinct for beaut}", have often adopted surnames surnames derived from gems, like those pf Rubinstein, the musician, and the Austrian satirist Saphir." Dr.. George Frederick Kunz has garnered the learning of a lifetime in his delightful book on The Curious Curious Lore of Precious Stones, and acultely suggests that The Charm of Jewels lies not only in their brilliance, but in their durability--a quality which always possesses a mysterious attraction attraction for us mutable creatures of the moment. "All the fair colors of flowers and foliage and even the blue of the sky and the glory of the. sunset clouds last only for a -short time and are subject to continual change, but the the en and coloration of precious precious stones are the .same to-day as they were thousands of years ago, and will be for thousands of years to come." in a world of change and decay and deterioration,- deterioration, - these symbols of eternity remind remind us that there is something fixed to cling to amidst the clashing of waves of illusion, and many have held them to be in some way inseparably inseparably associated with the one essential essential entity which knows no variableness, variableness, neither shadow of turning. There is, of course, a third and --in- the logician's sense--a more accidental reason for the high estimate estimate put on precious stones : this is their rarity and their consequent market value. The man who has made a hoard of ' Bags of fiery opals, sapphires, amethysts, amethysts, Jacinths, hard topaz, grass-green emeralds, Beauteous rubles, sparkling diamonds. diamonds. And seld-seen costly stones of so great price. the middle of the seventeenth ce^-! tu.ry, gives ran imposieg list of thoeij eflfëcts of j* 'Getitns. fXMnd pretioula %tOries," 'among : wihich he enumerates enumerates "the making of men rich and eloquent,. to preserve men from thunder,aod fightning, fromfplagues and disease, ; to, move dreams, tp procure sleep, to foretell things to come, to make men wise, to strengthen memory, to procure honk ors, to hinder fascinations and witch,crafts, to hinder slothfulness, to put . courage into men, >to keep men chaste* to increase friendship, to hinder difference and dissension, and to make men invisible.," Alas, if we really believed that all thèse fine things^ could be aohievedvfiy^the mere wearing of the appropriate stones, should we not ruin ourselves in buying jewëls and go about bedizened like the denizens denizens of Hat ten Garden and Park La-ne---who, for all the good it seems to do them, might as well wear their income tax receipts as their diamonds diamonds '1 It is easy to understand how some of the precious stones have acquired their reputation for occult virtues. The world-famous belief in "sympathetic" "sympathetic" magic accounts for many of them ; it is a form of homeopathy based on the maxim that similià similibus curantur, but unscientifically unscientifically accepting any trace of similarity similarity as adequate. Thus, yellow stones, like the beryl or topaz, were thought to cure jaundice. Any red stone would check hemorrhage, though the blood stone par excellence excellence is a darkrgreen chalcedony or jasper, splashed with red markings like blood drops. We may hazard a guess that the well-known power of the amethyst to prevent drunkenness, drunkenness, hitherto unexplained, may have originated in its resemblance in color to the nose of The Confirmed Drunkard Î But there are many other beliefs which it , is well-nigh impossible to explain ; we must suppose that-, like the immortal Topsy, they "grow- ed." There seems no rèason in the nature of things why the agate should make its wearer agreeable and pèrsuasive ; the beryl brings success in litigation (what about contempt of court 1) ; the carnelian stimulate the timid orator ; the catseye drive away evil spirits ; the emerald foreshow coming events ; the jacinth insure a warm welcome at an inn--we should pin our faith in modern days to diamonds for this purpose ; the moonstone arouse love ; the ruby guard a vineyard from destructive hailstorms, or the sapphire protect its wearer from envy--nowadays it often attracts it. On the other hand, we can readily understand why the pearl should be not merely the emblem, but the protector protector of purity ; whj r the diamond, hardest and strongest of all stones, should endow its wearer with fortitude, fortitude, strength and Courage ; why the loadstone (which is seldom or never worn in these cold-hearted days) should make all women fall in love with its possessor. The intimate intimate association of the turquoise with its wearer's health is explained by the undoubted fact that it sometimes sometimes changes color when its owner is run down, though its power to prevent the breaking of a limb rests on less good authority. "A woman prominent in the London London world," is said to have the power of restoring the color to a faded turquoise. Lastly, we may note that the opal--that most adorned of "captain jewels in the carcanet," which foolish people today today often hold to be unlucky--was formerly thought to combine all the virtues of the various gems, xhe His Place on the Sunbeam. This is how a German prisoner was brought in to general headquarters headquarters during the battle of the Aisne. His captor, being single-handed, could not afford to place him behind or at his side while driving, and accordingly hit upon the plan of lashing him astride of the bonnet of. his six-cylinder three-seater Sunbeam.--The Bystander. .11-1 Fashion Hints are c-annot but be moved by the thought of the dormant forces which lie waiting to be called into action if he chooses to throw' them on the market. As he turns over, these little sparks of fiery light he dreams of the envies and ambitions, and activities and labors, even the crimes and violence to which they would give birth if released from their captivity. It is hard enough to say,, as Byron Byron said of the similar belief about the influence of the stars on human life, that diamonds and rubies, emeralds and opals are A beauty and a mystery, and create In us such love and reverence from afar That Fortune, Fame, Power, Life, have named themselves a tutelary and directive jewel. Dr. Kunz makes a careful examination of all those ideas--often curious and far-fetched in appearance -- and shows that "they have their roots either in some intrinsic quality of the stones or-else in an instinctive appreciation of .their symbolical significance? 1 kOccuit Influence of Stones. Fblk-loritiis, it seems, are not yet agreed whether the custom pf wearing wearing .-.gems in jewelry- did not originate originate in the idea df their occult virtues virtues and influence on the wearer's character and fortune, rather than in the mere wish for personal adornment adornment ; though what, we' know of the savage taste, for. bright .and -sparkling. -sparkling. ornaments, fortified by the habits; habits; of the magpie and the - bower- bird, inclines us -to hold that the talismanic use cuf gems mtist have been a secondary growth.

Cooks Held in High Esteem After the Simple Life Had Been Pushed Into Shade. The Ancients, by whom we mean the ..Greeks and Romans, ate very much the same food that we eat today, today, and with the same appetite. They looked upon the* process, perhaps, perhaps, with an ëye of greater ceremony. ceremony. In Homeric times the gods took their share of. every -banquet, and in a later age of the placing of the guests, the conduct of the symposium, symposium, were of equal import with the choice of the meats and the wines. "He dines not who eats alone," was a maxim which never fell upon dishonor. That we should notice similarity rather than difference, as we look backward, is but natural. The craving for well-cooked food is wholesomely human, and if the palate palate grows more delicate as the appetite appetite becomes less gross the change is not peculiar to this country or that. As in poetry, so in food, the love of simplicity is the proof of a golden, if primitive, age. m- The heroes of Homer, for stance, were not nice feeders.

But foreign .victories brought foreign manners, and. luxury made an easy conquest of Rome, which presently .adopted the three meals of the Greeks, to divide theday. In the early morning the Roman was Satisfied with bread* dried fruits and cheese: Then at noon came the prandium, which consisted, in simple simple households, of the broken meats from yesterday's dinner table, with a : pleasant. addition of eggs, vegetables vegetables and wine. But it was the cena to which the epicure looked forward as the very climax of his day, when he might take his ease and indulge his fancy. The cena, indeed, was an elaborate meal, which followed a rigidly prescribed prescribed plan. First came the gustus, devised to stimulate appetite, not to .satisfy hunger. It consisted of an elaborate array of what we call hors d'oeuvre, and yet resembled thé loaded side tables of Sweden and. Russia more nearly than the modest dishes of France. There were shellfish and eggs and vegetables. vegetables. At the famous banquet of Tri-, malcfaio, which, it. should be remembered, remembered, was not merely a banquet, but a burlesque, and was given by a multi-millionaire, as w r e should call him to-day, the gustus would have served the most of men for a dinner. A donkey of Corinthian bronze held two baskets of olives, white on one side,' black on the other. Then there were dormice covered with honey and poppy seed, hot sausages on a silver grill, and beneath them damsons and pomegranate pomegranate seeds. But a Roman dined with Trimalchio as rarely as with Lucullus, and the freedman's fancy was separate and his own. After the gustus came the regular courses (fercula they are called), which might be three, or even seven, seven, in the houses of epicures. The Satirists and Historians, as we know, condemn the extravagance, extravagance, which vastly increased under under the empire, and which bade the wealthy. Romans send for their priceless delicacies to the ends of the earth. Satire had no more effect effect than sumptuary laws, and the banquets of rich patricians and wealthy free dm en are legendary. First came the fish, for poor as for rich a necessity of the dinner. Sea- barbel and the turbot of Ravenna were the favorites and the. haddock was not disdained.- Oysters ' were as highly prized at Rome as in modern London, and were, brought by the wealthy from Britain to be fattened in the Lu- cilne Lake. Of the birds, the chief in esteem were fowls and peacocks, and field-fares were, as eagerly sought for in Rome as in the Athens of Aristophanes. But no banquet at Rome was complete without a wild boar, whose entrance upon the table, roasted whole, marked the highest moment of the ceremonial feast. Pet-ronius has described the pomp of its coming coming with a vast deal of circumstance. circumstance. "A tray was brought in with a wild boar of the largest size AFRICAN MARKSMEN. Where Cross-Rows Shoot as Sn re as Guns. ^The proficiency of the African qross-bow men amazed the Duke i>f Mecklenburg, who wondered how the weapon of William Tell found its way into the Rang&ndu country. But there;it was, handed down from a ' dim antiquity which the natives! Were unable, to reveal. . Saveral of the hunting tribes use the weapon, and some of the marksmen are. so skilled that they .can bring down a . high soaring bird with the same* sure action of the^man with the gun . ; "Nothing is done to the arrows used • for ; killing birds," writes, the duke in his recently published wx?rk, /'From the Congo to the. Niger and, r the. Nile," "but for shooting monkeys monkeys they are invariably dipped in stir op h an th u s juice, a poison which kills them almost immediately." The duke was at the head of the German Central African expedition of 1910 and 1911, undertaken to sup- 1 plement the work of the expedition of 1907 and it08. Though the book makes a marvellous contribution to our knowledge of Central African fauna and flora, anthropology, eth-- 1 no logy and meteorology, and shows the perfection of scientific research, to the layman there are portions as interesting as the most imaginative fiction. One at times, despite the unvarnished narration, is reminded „ of the wild - African stories of" Rider Haggard. "Even a chapter bearing the extremely practical title of "Research "Research Work at Molundu" is enlivened enlivened by a vivid description of an attack on the expedition by "driver "driver ants."

'They had neither butchers nor cooks. They slaughtered their own beasts and prepared tlheir meat as well as they could. They had little taste for fish, which they ate only when there was nothing else to be had and they looked upon game as no better than the food oiL necessity. Nor were vegetables pleasing to their sturdy palates. Meat, bread and wine were their staple fare, and they asked 1 for no accessories. Pork and mutton and goats' flesh they ate willingly. Pork Was Highly Esteemed. Indeed, the beast which, to some is still unclean, was very much to the taste of the' Greeks, and was highly esteemed at their banquets unto the end. Athenaeus. writes in lyrical strains of a pig that once was served to' ham and his. friends, the half of which was carefully roasted, the other half boiled gently, as if it had been steamed, and the whole stuffed with thrushes and other birds! But best of all the Homeric heroes liked beef, cut into : pieces and grilled: upon spits.- And it was only on occasions of sacrifice that their • desires were wholly satisfied. Though the gods, to be sure, claim-, ed the" daintiest morsels, there was: enough left to appease the stbutest hunger. . -.Nor did they demand any adornment to such feasts as the® 6 save fruit. As the years, passed the Greeks grew daintier and more critical of their food. iThe three meals which broke their; day were not üïilike those which . still obtain. Their first breakfast was simple enough, consisting of bread dippéd in neat wine. Their luncheon was taken about noon, and their dinner was as late , as ours. Spoons and forks they knew, not, nor tablecloths nor napkins j but , if their service was bad, in the fifth century luxury had already invaded Athens.?. . ^ v _ There ia^no better proof oi the delicacy of the > Greek:-palate - than the honor in which cooks wëre held. They, plied [their trade with the with two little baskets v>. ve of palm twigs hanging from his tusks, one full of dry dates and the other of fish. Round it lay suckling pigs made of Simnel cake with their mouths to. the teats, thereby showing showing that we had a sow before us." So valiant a beast, freed because the guests of yesterday had sent him. a Way un tasted, deserved the ministration of no mean carver. And a big bearded man in a spangled spangled hunting coat plunged a great knife into his side, and as the knife entered, out there flew A Large Number of Thrushes. It was a fantastic spectacle, and suggests not the banquet of an epicure, epicure, but what the newspapers of today call a freak dinner. Arid the. Romans, no less.than the Greeks, proved their love of the pig By the preference they showed for sausage and black puddings. For the rest they esteemed a hare, a goat, or a dormouse that had been fed on ' chestnuts as rare dainties, aind they finished their feasts with a fine array of pastry and fruit. Some there were who praised the simple life,, but we may assume that Horace, Horace, when he declared his hatred "of parsici apparatus, was expressing no more than; the remorse Of a jaded palate. * " v . Yet if we com,pare the. luxury of modern times with the luxury of Rome, we shall observe but few différences. différences. We do not, like the,:Ro- mans, recline at our meals ; we > do riot observe the ceremonies of the triclinium ; wë are more sensitive in keeping clean our hands, and prefer prefer forks to fingers, but the "taste of man has mot greatly changed in 2,000 years, and if it could be our good fortune to dine with, Lucullus, his table would cause us no confusion confusion and but small surprise. ■ ; --: ---- : Dyspepsia arid pessimism have a lot in common. "When ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from 3'0u ; yea, when ye make many prayers, prayers, I«will not hear : vour hands are full of blood."--Isaiah i., 15.

Of this great war, as of every ill to which human flesh is heir, it is true that man's own blindness, wilfulness, blood guiltiness guiltiness are .the cause of all his woe. We Are Responsible. And yet there are those who hold God responsible for the horrors of our day and seem to find an exultant exultant joy in proclaiming that they can no longer have faith in a Deity -who can decree, or even permit, such things. To all such let me commend the words of the prophet which have been taken for *our text. To each one bf us He- has granted the power of choosing between good- and evil. Every influence of His grace moves us tdward the choice of the good and "away from the - choice of-the evil. We have only to yield' our- selvès to the currents of His Holy Spirit to find ourselves borne irre- trom 'hear very hor- of Gcd for the ignorance and the sins' 3 - f men. How does He weep at the follies of our lives : how does He pour out His Spirit upon us that we may feel and yield to its saving influences, and how, when the worst appjÇu's, does He turn away His face from the crimes with which we defame His holy name ! At this very moment, moment, for example, when, as in lie days of Isaiah, our "Hands Arc Full of Blood?' I believe God hides His eyes us, and when we pray will not the "words we speak. Th; ror of our condition, the very dept a of our misery, the perfect blackness df the storm of passion now ravaging ravaging the world, is but the measure of our remoteness from God and the proof of The severance of our wills from His.
