Black Diamonds.

Black diamonds are eomparativlIy
rare anu eorrcspondingly high price Il.
They are three or four times as hard as
the white ones, and fire cannot harm
them. however great the heat but if a
drop of water should touch them while
heated they will explode and leave
nothing hut a little heap of sand in
their place
Their beauty is not remarkable, but
on account of their extreme hardness
they are Invaluable for dressing sur
faces impervious to the friction of any
other material. The largest black dia-
monds are set in the end of round
short bar Of steel. With a handle Of
wood. and are used in dressing emery
wheels that have lost their "trucness."
A black diamond is the only substance
that Will not be ground away by con-
tact with thcemery surface.
Black diamonds are also used as
points in scoring pencils which are
used by seaiers of weights and meas
ures to mark glass receptacles. They
are used by dentists for drilling teeth
before filling them with gold. In APP
pearance they look more like shining
little splinter of iron or grain of coal
than Il precious gem. and their chief
mission is a distinctly commercial and
not an ornamental one.
