The Whole is of pure gold, except the set tings, and weighs almost exactly four teen pounds. The settings above allud ed to consist of fifty-three sapphires, fifty rubies, one emerald and 3.'S pearls. It w ? il be noticed that there are no diamonds among these precious adornments.

Tbe man who when struck violently on the head says he "saw stars" is not far from telling the truth. Tbe fa is that there is a phosphorescent pow er in the eye which does not attract t person's attention under ordinary con dirions. hut wh-l is distributed at reveals itself whenever the head gets •d sudden S;UM K and sometimes even in the act of sneezing. A blow on the head results lu a pressure of the blood vessels upon the retina, causing either total darkness or a faint blue light which floats before the eyes, and it is in 'tis faint blue li.ght tlie imagination discerns the thousands of fantastic forms and figures that by general ac vejtance tire termed stars; hence, while the astronomical display so fre quently mentioned may Le satd to be entirely a creature of the imagination there is at least some foundation fof the idea.

NATION STARTS WORLD INDUSTRIAL INQUIRY. Data Will Be Used In Efforts to Ex -1 tend Country's Foreign Trada Instructions to American consular i and commercial representatives in for- I | eigu countries calling for exuaustive ' rei>orts on industrial organization and the relations between industry and j government have been transmitted by the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce. The reports will form the basis for a thorough investigation of industrial , and business systems throughout the ( { world undertaken by the federal trade i commission, with which the bureau is i co-operating. The trade commission also plans to conduct a supplementary worldwide inquiry through squads of special investigators. Commercial attaches in foreign capi tals. as well as the consular officers of the state department, have been in structed to cover in their reports busi ness organizations, manufacturing and producing- efficiency, merchandising j methods, business and industrial laws, j and particularly tbe relation between business organizations and govern i mental authority. Instructions were ' prepared separately for each of the ; various countries. * Special instructions have been issued i calling for reports on the so called j "cartel" system of business organiza ! tion, as developed in Germany, under which great combinations of capita) ; are fostered. Tbe reports also will be available for use by the bureau and tbe commission in their efforts to extend the foreign trade of the United States.

He Cciieves It Runs GC3 Miles East and Far North of His Quarters. Stefanssoxi. the Canadian govern ment's antic explorer, believes that the newly discovered land in the Beau fort sea. upon which he lias planted the unipu jack in tbe name of the Do minion. is very extensive and will aud many thousands of square miles to the territory of Canada. A detailed report of his explorations and discoveries during the last two years was received by overland mail from Herschel island by the Canadian naval service department The land which Stei'aussou discover ed was northeast of Prince Patrick Land. lie spent three d iys on the laud, and from what be gathered he believes it runs some 300 miles east, but not far west. As far north as he could see there were mountain ranges. The land had plenty of game. There were no evidences of musk oxen, but plenty of bear and lots o' caribou. The birds were very numer ous and flo< ks could be seen flying north in immense numbers, which led him to believe that tbe land ran u,rth a great distance. Stefanssou reports that he had "a nice comfortable time." He and his two men came through the rigors of the arctic winter in first class shapi and were fatter when they came out than when they went in. The explorer reports that he is well provisioned, well supplied with sleds, dogs and everything he requires and has hardy and experienced men for his new expedition* upon which he has al ready started in tlie schooner Polar Bear. Last season he wintered at latitude 72, aud this winter he expects to winter at latitude 70. or some 2.70 miles far ther north, so that he will have thai much advantage when he makes ills dash again into the unknown regions of Beaufort sea. He will winter on Banks Land and. with luck, perhaps on Prince Patrick Land. He plans to explore the land which he reached last winter and to strike out into the unknown regions where he believes lie may even find an unknown continent. Bertholiet and Robespierre. It is said that the celebrated savant Bertholiet in the most dangerous rimes of the republic sustained his fearless love of truth. Some days prior to the ninth Tliertnidpr a sandy deposit wan found in a barrel of brandy intended for the army. The contractors, sn*- pected of poisoning, were immediately arrested, and the scaffold was already prepared. Bertholiet, however, exam ined the brandy and reported it free from all adulteration. "You dare maintain," said Robes pierre to him, "that that brandy does not contain poison?" As his reply Bertholiet drank off a glass, saying. "] never drank so much L*efore." "You have plenty of courage!" ex claimed Robespierre. "1 had more when I signed my re port," replied the chemist, and here the matter terminated. Seventh Century Needlework. Before the end of the seventh cen tury needlework was curried to great perfection in convents, where it was used for the establishment of the church and the decoration of priestly robes. Artists did not think it beneath their dignity to trace the patterns used for embroidery in rheir natural colors. A certain religions lady, wishing to embroider a sacerdotal vestment, ask ed no less a personage than St Dun stau. then a young man but already noted for his artistic skill and taste, to draw the flowers and figures, which ■he afterward worked in gold thread —Exchange.

Gallieni Has Fire Record. General Gullieqi is a grim discipli narian who will take a strong grip o# the army. His greatest achievement before the war was the pacification of the rebellious colony of Madagascar, in which task Geueral Joffre served un der him. # The war minister was made military governor of Paris when the government was moved to Bordeaux, General Gal lieni's mission being to defend Pari# to the last if the Germans besieged the capital. lie is n splendid organizer, whose greatest feat In this war has been to preserve Paris from Zepiteliua. The first action of the new ministry will be to modify radically the censor ship. allowing greater liberty in the publication of war and diplomatic new# and complete freedom to discuss polit ical questions. Universal opinion is that tlie consti tution of this strongest possible cabinet is a plain warning to Germany that France intends to continue the war to the bitter end First Real Coalition Cabinet. This is the first time in the history of the French republic that there I# a coalition ministry of ull the oppos ing parties and factions. It follows closely on the recent Innovation of forming n British coalition cabinet of Conservatives and Liberals. The action in forming the cabinet was tlie culmination of deep popular sentiment that at the supreme crisis of tlie war jmrty division should give way to united action by all the parties in common support of the government As the cabinet of Vlvianl was mp resentative of only a few political groups, the ministers presented their collective resignations, and President Poincare immediately charged Arle tide Briand with the formation of a new organization, combining ull ele ments. Honesty and Sagacity. A successful business man once told his sou that only two things were ne essary to make u great financier. "And what are those?" the boy asked. "Honesty and sagacity." "But what do you cousider the nuufc of honesty to be?" "Always to keep your word." "And the mark of sagacity?" "Never to give your wordl" To Make Bandage*.
