Dumonds are to be cheap. They will he made to order. Diamonds of a very Hmall size have been produced artificially heretofore, hut no one had succeeded in producing them of large size. Consul Germain, of Zurich, lias, however, in formed the state department that E. Moyat, a German, has discovered n new process by which they can be made in large dimensions. In principle Moyat'a process is about the same as the one already invented by others, and that is to obtain crystallized carbon out of iron and coal by means of high pressure and high temperature. Pulverized coal, iron chips and liquid carbonic acid are placed in n steel tube and hermetically sealed. The contents are then subjected to the action of an electric arc light by means of two elec trodes introduced into tiie tube. The iron liquefies, is then saturated by part of the pulverized coal, and at the same time the carbonic acid evaporates, there by creating an enormous pressure on the mixture of coal and iron. This pressure again considerably increases the dissolu tion of the coal in the liquid iron. "While the mixture is cooling, the car ton crystallizes, partly in the form of real diamonds and partly in the form of eimilar stones. These crystals are then segregated by dissolving the iron in di luted muriatic acid. They are diamonds that cannot be distinguished from those found in South African mines. says an eminent English ciocror, "will carry enough poison to infect a House hold. " In summer-time, more espec ially, disease germs fill the air, multi tudes are infected, fall ill, die ; multi tudes escape. These messengers of mischief'do not exist for millions. Why not f Because they are healthy and strong protected as a crocodile is against gun shot. It is the weak, the wasted, the thin-blooded who fall : those have no resistive power so that a sudden cough or cold develops into graver, disease. We hear of catching disease! Why not catch health ? We can do it by always maintaining our healthy weight. The New Time C'nril. The O. K. ii N. has made another change in its time table, which went into i efl'ect .lline 1st.
