“We have had several o rd ers for

said. “In every ease th e re was genu­

com fortable and the easiest to keep
In th e eye. T h ey ta k e cords also, for
It ■»■quires th e confidence bom of tong
experience to w ear a monocle w ithout

"A fter all. why should the monocle
be a m asculine glass only? It is n

as only a facial decoration for dudes
and politicians. W here only one eye
Is defective a superfluous glass Is a

T he monocle lends distinction to th e

T he discovery of A frican diam onds
Is a rom ance qf sleeping for years
on w ealth beyond the dream s of a v a r­
ice. In 1867 John O’Reilly w as on his
way from th e Interior, and stopped for
the night at the house of a Boer named
Van Nickerck. H e saw the children
playing on the floor with pome pretty
pehhles they had picked up, and
O’Reilly sa id ; “T hese m ight be dia­
monds !* He had one of the pebbles In
bis hand, and th e Boer said It w as no
diamond, th a t th e re w ere lots on th s
farm, and he m ight have It and v4el-
come.
O’Reilly said he wonld ta k e It to
Cape Town, and If It proved of value
he would give his host h alf tb e profits.
On his long Journey he stopped at
Ooiesburg a t the hotel, and show ed the
men he met his stone, sn d scratched
glass with It,-T h e fellow s laughed and
scratched glass with th e ir gun flints,
and threw the bright pebble out of tbe
window. B ut O’Reilly recovered It and
got It to an expert, who announced
th a t It w as In tru th a diam ond a t
221-4 carats.
O’Reilly, like the honest Irishm an bo
was, fairly divided th e $500 he sold
bis diam ond for with N lckefck when
he w ent up-country again, and th e
Boer rem em bered th a t he had seen an
