Yet, in >n point of fact, not a tenth part of its re history has ever been traced, so far J, does it extend back into the vistas of the part. Perhaps on of the strangest things a about it is that it cannot be lost to the world indefinitely.

The Kohinoor later scintillated without bloodshed through the resign of Shah Jahan down to his son Aurangzeb, who exhibited it to a number of Europeans whom he was enlertain, ing at his court.

Rhoe, May 6.?Count Greppie an elegant Italian diplomat who is nearly 102 years old, is beaten for longevity by an old woman of Monastir. She ie called Luba and is now 128 years old.

Moreover, all but one lived to see 90 years. She has had 84 prandchildren, 10G preat-prandchildren, 45 of whom foupht in the preat war, and she now smiles on the fifth peneration. Who interviewed about lonpevity, Luba had .10 theories like the count. Nor has she ever been particularly careful of hei health or avoided violent emotions, like him. But she has seen wars, pestilences, cholera, many revolutions, many lean years and has never been rich. So the count's recipe for lonpevity doesn't apply to her in any one point.
