Curiosities About Gold.
IRehohoth Sunday Herald.)

kRehohoth sunday deTalu.)
Gold is so very tenacious that q
piece of it drawn into wire one
twentieth of an inch In diameter
will sust ain a weight of 500 pounds
without breaking.
It's maleability is so great that q
single grain may be divided into
100000 parts and q cubic into
9,523, 800, ,,523 parts, each of which
may be distinctly seen by the max.
ed eye.
A grain and half of gold may
be beaten into leaves of one inch
square, which if intersected by
parallel lines drawn at right angles
to each other and distance only the
one-hUndredth part Of an inch, will
produce 25,OOo,OOO little squares,
each of which may be distinctly
seen without the use ct glass.
e The surface of any given quanti-
ty Of gold, according to the best
authorities, may be extended by
the hammer 3l0,1S5 times. The
thickness of the metal thus extend
ed appears to be no more than the
56S O20th of an inch. Eight ounces
of this wonderful metal would gild
a silver wire Of sufficient length to
extend entirely around the globe.
