SAPPHiRES ARE HOT ALL BLUE

Other Tints Are Sometimes Found
 Among Ceylon Gems.
 ''It is commonly believed that the sapphire is known only as gem of dch velvety blue in color," observed an experienced dealer in precious Atones to the writer the other day. "As a matter of fact, the sapphire occurs in various hues. In Ceylon, for in stance, where the finest specimens of this gem are found, it ranges from the soft velvety blue to the peacock blue. graduated in the latter to an almost iaultless white. It also occurs in whites, greens and yellows, the latter shade being known as the oriental to- paz and the green the oriental emerald The white sapphires are often found clouded or streaked with blue, so that many specimens are cut which are white when looked at transversely, but having bit of fine blue tint on the under point. Then there is the red sapphire, or Ceylon ruby. It is valued as highly as the finest Burmese rubies. These most highly prized are of rich pigeon blood or rose-red color. Some very fine sapphires have been found sn Montana during the pest ten years. The American gems are light blue. blue-green. green and pink, but the deep blue and red stones, which are chiefly in demand aa jewels, have so far never been discovered in any part of this country" Washington Star.
