Easy Tests For Proving "A Diamond.

1t is an easy matter TO detect the diff.
ference between a genuine diamond and
an imitation. Take tube Of filtered
water and drop the stone therein. Ii it
is paste, it can be seen as it passes through
the water, but II pure the eye is unable
to see it at all Another test il to place
the stone upon a pencil dot made on a
piece of white paper, # the dot IS du-
plicated upon the facets You can rest as
sured that tie stone IS a fraud, but if
not it is a good stone. The common be-
lief that stone can be tested by fling is
erroneous. for the best diamond ever cut
