A wealthy ybroker of West Philadel- phish a rsiher singular crp‘srienoo the at day He and his family have had in their possession for a number of years some very handsome opsls, but the superstition which was fonnsrly en- tertained concerning the stone being no- lucky prevented him making use of the gems. Last year he took II trip to lin- rope. While in London he met at the house of a mutual friend a dealer in precious stones, who had just come from Grecian a Dies, in Honduras, and had brought back some fine gems. Instead of putting any faith in the popular superstition this gentleman be- lieved in the opal very thoroughly and attributed to it virtues which no other gem possessed Among the things which he said about it was that the opal was attached to its owner by invisible cords and that it was impossible to lose it, though it might be mislsid. The Pbila- ’ ' " " dolphin broker on his return to Phila- dolphin chose the finest opal in his col- léctlon. had it set in a ring, surrounded by small diamonds, and at Christmas esented it to his wife. It was truly II my, and she wore it with emotions pride. One day on returning from a day’ s outing she received quite a shock—the opal was gone. Search proved vain. No trace of the stone could also discover. Not only on account of its value. but because she knew how highly her bus- _ band prised the stone, she hated to in- form him of her loss. At last she felt obliged to do so. when, greatly to her astonishment, he drew from his vest poclm a tiny package and presented it to her. Upon Opening it what was her delight when she recognized her lost opal. More astonishing still, her husband nfllrmed that while he was walking down Chestnut street a day or two be. fore he felt something under the. sole of his shoe, which upon investigation proved to be the opal which be hIni Inst Dr. seen shimmering upon his wife’ a finger There ,was no doubt about it lung the lost one, for the jeweler who had set it recognised it ulso.-— Philadelphia Times. .
