A STRANGE NECKLACE.

Miss Celeste Miller, of Chicago, possesses the strangest necklace in the world, one which has so aroused the envy of many other women that several have offered her many times its intrinsic value to part with it. No amount of money would tempt its owner to sell it," however, as it is not only valuable and rare, but is also a reminder of the many thousand miles over which Miss Miller has travelled. The necklace, or chain, as when worn it falls below the waist, is made of cricles of links of Chinese jade, the bright green seldom seen, linked together with small gold coins of the Chinese realm. Among the souvenirs attached to the chain are:—Square coin in circulation in Japan fifty years ago; old coin from Morocco, 300 years old; emu from Australia; gold heart from Atlanta, Ga., Exposition, 1895; Malachite book from Ural Mountains; Java moonface, with movable eves; Aztec calendar stone from Mexico; sacred monkey from Japan; shoe worn by Chinese woman; figure made by Ecuador Indians; lucky stones from New Zealand; sacred , elephant of Siam; old coat of a*mfc of Bremen, Germany; bear of Oko^i&ka, Siberia; ancient coat of arms of Berlin; Aajogaroo of Australia; scarab 4,000 years old; old Siberian coin; lion of China, which guards the ancient temples; and a Hair ring made from tail of sacred elephant of Siam.
