Worth More Than Gold.

The phrase worth its weight in
gold" no longer expresses the idea
which it was intended to convey. For
there are at least twenty substances
worth moro than gold. Berylium, for
instance, is worth about ten times its
weight in pure gold, and venadium is
Eve times as costly as the precious
metal. Iridium, also, is more than
twice as costly as gold. The text books
used to say that platinum was the only
metal more valuable than gold. but it
now costs about the same.
