Russian policy should be that of a

was no subterfuge about Count Cas-

Chinese authorities. He indicates to

The Standard Diamond Carat.

Gems are generally bought and sold
by the weight called a carat, which Is
equal to about 3.16S troy grains. 1t is
usually divided, however, into four dia'
mond or pearl grains, each of which is
1926 of true grain. The weight of the
carat formerly differed slightly in diff
ferent countries, and this diversity
finally led a syndicate of Partisan jew
elers, goldsmiths and gem dealers, in
1871, TO propose a standard carat. This
was subsequently confirmed by an
agreement between the diamond mer-
chants of London, Paris and Amster-
dam, fixing a uniform weight for the
diamond carat.
