lie was IA nIan of manners CROUCH.
lie said she knew he hated lamb,
The dinner was the merest shamh;
Why didn't she prepare some hamb? ..
She looked at him and muttercl ''pugh!'
Aud asked 'What can j woman dugh
To please a cranky man like yough?"
Was she q woman to sit dumb
While he came in v ith aspect grum?
She would not stand it--no not Sumb.
His Judgment of goon faith she doubted
His grounds oC criticism scOubted-
Mad with rag, these words she shouted
Then, with a lot of pain and worry,
The wife arose, and in tlDrry,
Went 10 her mothers in q horny.

1t is reported a. fact that an expert
diamond dealer purchased O remark
ably fine diamond for $1,000, and after
ward discovered that it was made of
two diamonds artfullv joined with
Canadian balsam, and the fraud was
only discovered by testing the diamond
by ray of sunlight sent through the
camera. While the beam of light would
pass straight and clear through other
diamonds that were perfect single
stones, it was stopped by the foreign
material joining the compound stone.
While that test would undoubtedly
be conclusive scientific demonstration
OF sucli a fraud" diamond expert
said, 1T would rot be required by anv
one who had the right to claim expert
knowledge of precious stones. The
joining of stones by means of Canada
balsam is not new thing. You have
a fine rose diamond of good color. but
shallow. Well, You back it with an
other to give it depth, and ii the job is
neatly done it will he difficult for most
persons to see that it is not single
stone, but any expert would detect it ut
glance. All that is necessary is to
looh right down into the helrt O.
the diamond. Then if you wish to
give nc entltic demonstration to another
person. the camera may be brought into
play, but it is not necessary ANY one
