The location of Solomon's Mlnesi from which the gold of Ophlr was extracted has long called forth the attention of explorers and anti- quarians. From the accounts given in Holy writ the mines must have been

~, amazingly rich. Various theories as to

i their location have been put forward. It was at one time supposed that. i119

_ i site was in Atlantis and now buried . in view of the proposed investiga-

beneath the ocean. A more plausible i and interesting conjecture is that 3 Zymbawa in Southern Rhodesia is the true location of Solomon's mines, i It would be a story too long for this i column to cite even an abstract of j the facts and arguments by which the ‘ conjecture is supported. Interest lies in the location being in British ter- ritory,‘ only recently penetrated by ‘ civilized people, but which is being ex- ‘ plored in prospect of finding gold be- ‘ heath the soil. Questions are asked as to why Solomon's mines were aban- i dot-red in the misty past. were they 3 worked out? ‘rhatscems quite im- i probable. They had no diamond bor- i ers or modern appliances for-testing i the metallic wealth of" the - rocky depths beneath the surface in Bolo- ‘l men's time. ' ‘ i The Lisbor leaderjiamsay Mncdonald is having unexpected difficulties in ’ making up his cabinet. This arises ‘ from conflicting groups in the Labor i party all insisting upon recognition I and also challenging the right of some who had a place in the former Labor Government to be taken into the ‘ DEW 0X19. And Lloyd George is said to her the j most worried of the three party lead- ers. He has been in private conference with some of his chief supporters, and ‘it is expected that he will shortly meet all the Liberal members elect to ‘ devise mectns to keep the‘ party to- gether. The dissatisfied ones are tending to draw away to the Con- t servative or the Labor camps. There ‘ is much comment to the effect that p the disintegration of the party is cer- tnin.

It is in Saskatchewan where the local Liberal Government has new been defeated that Premier Mac- kenzie King and Hon. Charles Dun- ‘ ning, Minister of Railways were elect- , cd to the Dominion Parliament in y 1925. This particular Mr. King, for 1 there are more than one who sit in I Parliament who bear the family

A bracelet set with diamonds was f found within a. codfisifi that was 5 caught off the coast of Cape Breton ‘ the other day. Various estimates of v the value of the bracelet, which was adorned with l2 diamonds, have been made by the jewellers of Sydney Mines, running up to five or six thou- ‘ sand dollars.

An so, in this situation. the winter of 1847 wore on. Again Ruskin took Effie to the galleries. and siill she interested herself ,,in his pursuits. Margaret Ruskin was well satisfied. At last( according to Holman lI-lunt, his mother spoke once more to Rus- kin “much more pressingly." She as- sured him "that though he did not recognize the fact himself, she and his father were convinced that he was deeply enamoured of his cousin." Ruskin's biographer, Cook, has sum- med up the situation. ‘They saw in o marriage wivh Euphemia the means by which they might gan a daughter and not loose a son. Rus- kin did not know what to do. He still said that it was impossible that he should love Euphemia, but his defences were weakening . . . . . . ..per- haps he may have thought that as he could have neither of his real loves, neither Adele or Charlotte he might Just as well please h‘s parents.
