DIAMOND WORN BY CARLOTTA
“Maximillian Stone,” With Unhappy
History, Is Now on Exhibition
at New York.
A great greenish-white diamond,
known as the "Maximillian stone,” is
on exhibition for the first time in this
country at New York. Like all large
gems, this stone has a history which
is not happy. It was found in Brazil
about 1850, and in its rough state
weighed nearly 50 carats. Ferdinand
Joseph Maximillian, then archduke of
Austria, traveled extensively in South
America. While lie was in Brazil he
bought the diamond, it is said, for a
price approximating $375,000.
The jewel today is in the same con¬
dition as it was when worn by (lie Em¬
press Marie Charlotte in Maxlmllliau’s
short reign in Mexico.
When Maximillian was executed a
commission was designated to sell the
diamond along with other gems that
had been part of the gorgeous court.
The stone was bought by an American.
As part of ids estate the diamond is
again to be sold.
Positive and Comparative.
During a recent business men's con¬
vention in Chicago, one man ap¬
proached another in the lobby of a
hotel and by way of introducing him¬
self, said:
“I’m Beck."
‘‘That’s good,” replied the man ad¬
dressed. taking the proffered hand,
“I’m more so.”
“You’re what?” asked the first
spea ker.
“I say that I am more so,” repeated
the other,
“What do you mean by that?”
“Why, you say you are Beck;”
“Yes, I am. My name is Beck.”
“Well, my name is Becker.”
It never pays to sow wild oats,
young man; there is po market for
them.

Are Corns a Luxury?
When is a luxury tax? Representa¬
tive Aaron 8. Kreider tells this story:
A woman went into a restaurant and
ordered a plate of ice cream, and wlten
she came to pay, she had a check for
15 cents and 2 cents was added to it.
She asked : “What does that 2 cents
mean ?”
"Weil,” she was told, “15 cents for
your ice cream and 2 cents luxury
tax."
Siie paid it, and then she walked
across the street to the drug story and
asked for a eorri plaster, and she got
a check for 10 cents, and 1 Cent added.
She said: “What is the 1 cent for?”
“That is the luxury tax.”
“Weil,” she said, “this is the first
time i ever knew that corns were a
luxury."
Now that is the way it goes. There
are a great many tilings to be con¬
sidered in discussing tax propositions.

Fairy Tale.
“Once upon a time, as all good stories
begin, there was a Fairy, and the
Woodsman was cutting down a whale
of a tree when the Fairy came by and
said, waving her wand:
“Woodsman, spa re that tree and get
u regular job being President of your
country.”
And so the Woodsman moves to
Washington and one day the Fairy
called again and said, w. her w.:
"Is there anything more I can do
for you?”
And the President said:
"Yes, you little son-of-a-gun ! You
can take me hack where I came from
and hand me my ax, and beat it!”—
