They just seem to come to him. —\Who Said So?— Absentmindedness Apparently there are a-lot of ab- sent-minded people in the world, due, no doubt, to the busy times in which we live. For instance, a Kansas City woman is said to have killed a man, hid him under a bed -and entirely forgot about “the incident until she swept the room three or four days later.

Not so startling to some people—just a pleasant greeting to male some feel as if they are not going to be alone in the world. —That’s All— Musical Instruments in Arabia. “The Arablan love-songs seemed of | and for the desert. Always in a minor key, usually high-pitched, slightly nasal, at times, and ending in a signed, hopeless minor note, they were weird and plalative,” according to a writer in Asia Magazine. “One did not need to.understand the words ; perhaps it was best ‘that one should not, for they were frequently hald and unlove- 1y. It was the music that told the story, revealed the passion and even hinted of that it dared not tell. Gave Them What They Asked For. Deacons seeking ministers forjthelr churches often applied to Mr. Spur- geon, famous English pulpit orator. One asked him to send a studedt who could “fill the chapel,” and got an answer saying that Mr. Spurgeon had not one big enough, but he thought he could send one who might fill the pulpit. A reply nfe that that was anted, and a minis- ter was accordingly sent. It was Mr. Whale.

Pink pearls are greatly prized. One of the finest in existence. was found in a fresh water mussel in the Mississippi river and is valued at $15,- 000. Off the Pearl islands, south of - Panama, pearls are found which are | lead-gray and also green, Sapphire mines in the }lncky moun- tains produce stones which touch the whole color scale from blue and red to an exquisite purple. In Rhodesia is found a topaz of a most lovely pale blue. Yet the chem- ical composition of the gem proves it to be identical with the yellow topaz. The colors of most gems are more or %s fugitive. That is, under cer- tain eircumstances they are liable to fade. Take two rubles exactly similar, the end of two years there will be a distinct difference between them. The one that has been exposed to the light will be decidedly paler than the other. Similyr results’ may be observed with both emeralds and sapphires, Garnets also will turn lighter, while in the case of the topaz, sunlight ends by diminishing and dulling the color of this stone.—Stray Stories. 3ubscribe for Ploneer.
