Al though the man arrested was an humble and comparatively unknown Italian, it is said that some of the most prominent cit izens offered to go on his bond. Public sentiment was strongly with the prisoner. Such a feeling is natural. A Very Forgetful Peraon. “It’d cur’oos how ferjafitful some folks are, now ain’t it?" inquired Mr. Jakes, the village plumber, carpenter and sheriff in a ruminative tone. “There's people that'll fergit arrant9 an jobs an bills an days o’ the week an so on, an I’ve even heard tell of folks that would fergit their own names now an agin.” "Yes, I've heard mention made of jest sech cases,” said Abijah Snow, who was watching Mr. Jakes solder a good s'zed hole in the bottom of the Snow teakettle.

The material in which imitation dia monds are produced is called strass, from the name of its inventor, a German jeweler who flourished at the beginning of the present century. It is perfectly colorless and transparent glass, or rather crystal, of irreproachable purity, com posed of rock crystal, or of white sand, mixed with oxide of lead, arsenical acid and other ingredients. Its preparation demands infinite care and a multitude of precautions, to avoid the possibility of tho slightest flaw or bubble being introduced into the mass, from which are then cut the false gems in the pro portions desired. Small or medium sized diamonds produce a much better effect than do large ones. For the best forms of imitation jewel ry they are cut by the same workmen that are employed in executing that function with real stones. Their task is much easier, owing to the comparative softness of strass, a quality which causes ornaments in imitation diamonds to lose very siieedily their brilliancy and their deceptive aspect. To remedy this state of things imitation emeralds, rubies anil sapjihires are oftqn set with a layer or slice cut from a real precious stone of in ferior value and cemented with a trans parent and colorless compound on the top of the false gem, so as to cover it completely.—Ladies’ Home Journal.
