Marietta Remy, a beautiful girl,
who had led rather a gay life, died in
Paris the other day. She was known
among her friends as Opal, from the
fact that she always wore a very
handsome opal necklace. This neck-
lace was given her by her first lover,
who, at the ■ time, said : “You know
that opals are gems that live. My
fate is inseparable from these. When
you see them become dull and die, [
too, shall be at the point of death.”
One day they thought they were
weary of each other, and they
separated. But after ho had gone,
Marietta found that her love for him
was still ardent, and she sought to
recall him. It was too late, he had
left the country. She consoled her-
self, however, by looking at her neck-
lace, and saying: “The opal still lives,
I shall see him again.” But about a
month since the opals began to grow
dull; then, one by one, they lost all;
their luster and became dead. A few;
days ago but one remained, and that
gave only a faint reflection. “He is
about to die,” thought Marietta. She;
fell into profound melancholy, and:
said: “Then I, too, must die?’ And
when one evening the last opal gave
its last gleam she took poison and
died. The same day this telegram
from Luchon reached Paris: “Paul
