Ing heavy ring in his mouth, says a
writer in the Chicago Record. The
head of the animal and the ring were
worn quite smooth, but the hollow re-
verse side which fitted against the door
was faxed with rust. and the bolts
used for fastening the knocker to the
door were so coated that the nuts could
not be turned.
The knocker seemed several GEN.

an American in Florence, an expert
who has frequented the shops foc
years, he shook his head and said !:
I'm not sure that 1t wasn't made in
Germany"
But it must be rather old. Look at
the rust"
The Germans can take a piece OF
iron and rust 1t like that in two days"
But the ring is worn smooth from
handling
1T wouldn't take long to grind that
down and then polish it. Now, I'm on
the watch for receptions all the time.

Inc Germans will take any kind of an
antique and copy it SO well that only

fraud. Don't buy any armor or old
lamps or coins or anything of that sort
