There are several varieties of opals : and therefore several degrees of merit. The precious or noble or oriental opal ? is tin? supreme. This lias all tlie eol, ors, and when those colors are broken ' into spangles it is then called tlie harlequin opal. Then comes the fire | opal, or girasole, with hyacinth red | aim yellow reflection. The former 1 comes from Hungary nntl the latter ' from Mexico. The common, or semii opals, are iionopaleseent. The hydrophone. ??r oculus inundi, is nonlransparent, hut beeonies so by immersion in water or any transparent fluid. The I swhalong is nearly opaque and of a bluish white color. The hyalite is colorless, pellucid and white. The opal ! jasper, or wood opal, is the petrifaction of wood, opalescent, but without the ! coloring which makes the "noble" gem so precious. , t It cm ii nerntl ve I.I tern In re.

Thus suppose the eight was the bottom nrd. Then on dealing them out they could be in the following order: King, . 7, 1, 4, 0, queen, 2, 0, knave, 3, 10, 8, nd you begin reciting In the mind the cords you use from that passage in the eutence, working from right to left, chlch the cord Indicates In thp above, fou would say: 8 10 3 knave Eight thousand and three men and 0 2 queen G 4 iiuety-two women; sixty-fourth 1 7 5 egiment bents the seventy-fifth; up king tarts the king with, etc. Here, of ourse, is your starting point. The same principle holds good what ver the card may be. Any person askng for a card, all four of every suit any be found In the Rome heap and an be quickly turned up as soon as retired with a little practice, to the uter astonishment and wonder of the ompnny. Ity taking up JJio cards in the same rder ns before, but all of one suit, you any easily discover the position of any no card that Is dcuinndcd. A One trick with cards Is culled "thiry-one." It Is played with tbe first six if each suit, tbe aces in one row, the leuces In another, the threes In nnotbr, then the fours, fives and sixes, nil' aid In rows. Tbe object now will be o turn down cards alternately and en* lenvor to make 31 points by so turning ir ns near to it ns possible without iverrunuing It, and tbe one who turns town n card tbe spots of which make dm 31 or so near It tlint tbe other can* lOt turn down one without overrundug Jt wins. This trlclt is very decelv- j ng, ns nil other tricks nre, nnd re- , inires much practice to he well under* : tood. The chief point Is to count so ns o end with the following number*? ( lz,' 3. 10, 17 or 24. For example, we vill suppose it your privilege to com- j nonce with 3 nnd your adversary ; vould ndd 0, which would make It 0. ' t would then be your policy to add 11 ind make 10. Then, no matter what lumber he ndds, \ic cannot prevent ' rou counting *17, which number gives rou the commnud of the trick. We will inppose lie ntUls 0 anil makes 10. Then roil add l.and make 17; then he odds 6 mil makes 23, you add 1 and make 24. riien he cannot possibly add any num>er to count 31, as the highest number le can add is 0, which would only rount 30, so that you can easily add the remaining 1, or ace, and make 81.

There artf innny people who ' will doubtless be Interested to know that it " Is only since the thirteenth eeqtury that the poi)es hare been accustomed to wear white. Until that time they were always arrayed In the red robes now affected bp the cardinals. Boniface VIII., in 1204, however, realising that the red was no longer a distinctive color of the papacy since his predecessors had accorded to their legates abroad the right to wear It Issued a decree granting to all the members of the sacred college the red robes which they now wear and decided that tbe white should henceforth be the hue of the raiment of himself and of his successors. The popes, however, still retain from those ancient days the red * hat which they wear out of doors and tli* red mantle as well as tbe red shoes. 't ' - . i * A Dance Wlilmnt a Smile.

Stiff with cords and rich with braids the girl moves heavily by herself. going round and round, and never allowing Iter partner to touch her band. t * The pipe goes droning on for boar* In the same sad key and measure and the & prize of merit In this circling." ns the dance Is called, is given by spectators to the Inssic who in all that summer revelry has never spoken and never smiled. t V .
