?f All the world has heard of the Kohinoor,
or, as it has been sometimes
called, the Great. Mogul diamond, and
it would seem that there was nothing
1,1 more to be said about it. 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. It was bricked and
in plastered up in. a well and miracu0_
lously found after its former owner
e had been murdered. It was twice
thrown away us a bit of glass and
once went to the washerwoman in the

Peasant Woman, 128, With
Over 200 Descendants.
f\ (From the New York World.)
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.
Though not a woman of the world,
for she is a peasant and has never
heard of those refinements which
make Count Greppi's, life, she scores
over the aristocrat in the matter of j ]

celibacy alone accounts for his preen
old ape while Luba married in 1819 ;
at 18 years of ape and had a thrivinp
family of 14 sons and dauphters.
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.
SHE SETS A GOOD EXAMPLE
