TESTING PRECIOUS STONES.

Consular-General Guenther, of Frank
fort, writes as follows to the State De-
partment:
In a lecture on precious stones re-
Gently delivered before the Industrial
Association of Berlin, DR.. Emmanuel
Friedlaender said that the testing of
diamonds is compare lively simple. The
common test for hardness suffices. If
the stone resists strong attacks, as only
an imitation has been destroyed. This
test however, is doubtful with rubies.
If a ruby can be affected by a steel file
or by quartz it is surely not genuine;
but such test-with topaz is liable to
iniure a valuable stone.
The test for hardness is of no avail
with emeralds as this stone is not much
harder than quartz, and in addition
possesses the quality of cracking easily
For examining rubies and emeralds,
the optical test is best. A glas magni-
flying about one hundred times suffices.
Every expert knows that almost all
precious stones have little flaws. Near
ly every ruby and all emeralds have
many defects, which are so characters
tic that the genuineness of the stones
is readily established. Such a test is
very necessary with rubies, because the
limitations are very deceiving. Their
color is absolutely durable and often
much finer than that of the genuine
although II may be stated that some
what yellowish tint is always suspi-
cious.
The only reliable way in which genu-
inc rubies can be told from limitations
is by the minute air bubbles of the lat
ter which become clearly visible under
the magnifying glass. These are not, to
be found in the natural gem; on the
other hand the limitations lack certain
] defects characteristic of genuine rubies
certain cacuums, whose outlines are
much more indistinct than those of the
air bubbles in limitations.
| True emeralds have similar character
| istic defects, such as enclosures of liq-
uids, and curious dendrites. Sapphires
also show peculiar netlike formations.

THE WORLDS SUGAR.

EDITOR STAR: We have just re-
ceived from New York the following in
formation in regard to the worlds pro-
duction and consumption of sugar,
which l believe will be of interest to
every one here, and | think it will be
somewhat of a surprise to many to
learn that for the past three years the
worlds consumption of sugar has ex-
ceeded the worlds annual production
of sugar, this condition being made pos
Slble by surplus which has been car
ried forward and is not given below.
My information consists of statistics
published by Willett & Gray, accom-
panied by a personal communication
from Willett & Gray dated May 2Sth,
1901. The figures given below are in
tons:
1S97-1S9S.

Worlds Production of all
Sugars ...................... S,474 1856
Excess Consumption over Pro-
duction Observation-Disclosures. 1872, 761
Willett & Gray further make an es.
innate of the total production of all
sugars throughout the world for 1901
of 1851 ,SSl tons. This is an estimated
increase i'm the worlds production OF
LOSE, S96 tons.
From the various statistics given
above, showing the comparative con-
sumption of sugar every year II does
not seem improbable that the consump.
ton for 1901 will increase in the same
ratio as the production.

How He surrendered.

He had met her here and there:
And he thought her passing fair;
All that any man could wish for in a bride.
If he would but be content
With a parlor ornament.
Nor expect a wife 10 keep his house beside.
But 1t CHANGED upon a day
As he passed along that way.
Through an open kitchen window glancing in,
He beheld this dainty maid
In a cotton frock arrayed.
With a cooking apron tied beneath her chin.
And she mixed and measured out
With a skill beyond a doubt,
And a ready grace that fairly turned his heads
All his caution he forgot
And surrendered on the SPOT
As he watched the belle and beauty making
bread!

This from an exchange is going the

the last resting pace of a mar who blew

could pass in front of a moving train.

start the fire with kerosene, and a grass

boy who tried to jump on a moving

ture who always had her corset laced to

who rode a bicycle nine miles in ten
minutes sleep on undisturbed. At

a shoe box driven over his head is the
rich old man who married a young wife,
