Hotel Clerks Diamonds.

From the Philadelphia Press
There are a great many stale jokes
made about the big diamonds worn by
hotel clerks" said a ieweler yesterday
in the reading-room Of the Girard
House, as he pulled his cigar and made
himself comfortable on his holiday,
"but that just shows that few people
know good diamond when they see it"
do you mean TO say that the stones
worn by hotel clerks are ali genuineY
Most OF them are. l saw q hotel
clerk at Cape May, two years ago,
wearing one of the largest and puresi
diamohds 1 have seer in MANY yeas.
But, Of course, he did not buy it, and,
in fact, il did not belong TO him"
where did he get it?"
why my dear young fellow, he was
wearing it as an advertisement. Don't
you know that q great many iewelry
firms advertise their goods in that way?
Well. If you don't, just you keep your
eyes open during Christmas week and
You will see some of the hotel clerks
blazing with precious stones of great
value. It's an advertising dodge OF the
dealers, and it snits the clerks because
they are thus able to make a better dis
play OF iewelry than most of the guests.
It's a cold day when q clerk can't para
lie q country visitor by flashing a big
diamond on him.
How are the dealers bspefted?'
'sWky, inlthis way: A rich man, fond
Of iewelry, comes mp TO The hotel coun-
ter and sees a fine diamond on the clerks
shirt bosom, He makes some remark
about the stone. The clerk talks about
its features and value in an off-hand
sort of way. The visitor asks where II
was purchased. Clerk tells him, and
recommends him to go there; in fact
often gives him a card of introduction
to the proprietor. Don't you see how
the scheme worksY n
