Odd Powers Atributed to Geros in Past Ages While In modern times the value of Jewels depends on their use as i ortiumeuts and their employment tn certain optical and other Instru ments, the ancients attached a far different significance to them. In their minds gems were endowed with gifts of spiritual and material power and were credited with ths ability to cure diseases, avert trou ble and drive away tlie demons, which harassed the imagination of people of early medieval times. This conception gave rise to the wearing of amulets, the presiding genius of one's fate being easily carried about In the form of a pre cious stone. These Ideas, now so ridiculous to us, had their origin In the philos ophy of India, and are related to the belief in the transmigration of the soul. It was believed that the soul which, at death, had not reached a state of absolute purity, liad to undergo various transmigra tions until It became purified, and that consequently It entered into plants, animals and even mineral bodies In the process. Therefore, gems were considered living beings. Being of Incomparable physical purity, they were regarded as the highest expression of natural per fection, and lienee supposed to pos sess other powerful properties.— Exchange. ___________ ïôunïTnTurku, ah? nearly nil ths historic homes of the Finnish nobil ity are In or near the city.

Its sturdy, 200 cubic inch, L-hcad engine develops 60 horsepower at moderate engine speed. Its speed and acceleration ure the fastest to be found in any low-priced six, according to the “fifth wheel” — the most accurate speed measuring device known tq automotive engineers. Unquestionably, today’s Pontiac Big Six is the performance leader of its price field—and the style and value leader as well. On Tonight s Menu TREHARNE Turku was Finland’s first capital.
