There are several kinds of imitation
pearls. One is n glass bead filed with
composition. The glass is often not over
a sixty-fourth of an inch thick. There
are several different compositions used.
One looks very much like paratiin. A
bead filled with that material would
crush easily. In other globular pearls,
pierced for stringing, harder substance
is employed. There is an imported imita-
ton pearl whose shell is said to be made
Of fshskin and whose filling is com
pound in which there is ground mother of
pearl, the lustrous lining Of the oyster
shell, wherein the real pearl is produced.
This sort Of jewel costs a dollar or two,
and n string of GO would sell for $50.
Real pearls of the same size and beauty
would bring fully hundred times that
price.
Although the manufacture of imitation
pearls was long confined to Europe, it is
now conducted in this country also.
New York house. the first TO engage in
the business. introduced novelty to the
trade n few years ago. 1t made solid
pearls in addition to the filled ones. The
composition employed is as hard as ROCK.
Jewels, and their lustcr, color and ingen-
ious irregularity of form will deceive any
one who does not use a magnifying glass
on thels. The head OF this house tells
many amusing stories about the mistakes
made by expert jewelers. and pawnbro-
kers when these stones first made their
appearance. or course ii Is not easy to
fool an experienced person; still the ex-
pert must use powerful lens in order to
ascertain the real character OF pearl.
He will not trust the naked eye. Occa-
sionally jeweler will say: 'No, ! cannot
detect an imitation pearl eight or ten
feet away, but if ! hold it in my hand
can see the difference between that and
the real thing There's n sort Of halo
around the genuine article which is un-
mistakable" But other men in the
trade frankly admit that only by means
Of n microscope can they discriminate.
A fashion has sprung up Of late years
which enhances the deception produced
by imitation jewels. II paste diamond

the manufacturer has lavished more or
less artistic skill on the design Of ring
or stud or clasp a different impression is
created.
When one first gets an idea OF the
enormous extent TO which imitation jew
els are sold and worn. he naturally won

OIL CONCENTRATION PROCESS
Was Tried Successfully At e. & e. Sew.
efai Yeas Ago.

A press dispatch Of recent date from
Rossland, British Columbia, says:
~ believe in the efficiency of a system
of oil concentration and am perfectly
satisfied that the lie Roi ores can be
treated by process utilizing the princi.
pie Of oil extraction with excellent re-
Suits" says Oscar Szontagh, metallur.
gist at the Northport smelter, and well
known authority on metallurgy.
The fact is that when the Elmore oil
process, Of which no much has been
heard lately, was brought to Mr.. szon.
tagh's attention, it came in the guise Of
an old friend in new clothing.
While a resident Of Baker City, Ore,
in 1889, MIR. Sxontagh met Carrie J. Ev.
erson, the patentee Of process Of con.
centration which she had evolved In her
assay Office at Denver. Mr.. Sxontagh
took third interest in the rights for the
idea. Some sacks that were impregnat.
ed with grease, oil, pulverized ore and
other foreign bodies, such AZ are likely
to accumulate about sacks used for ship.
ping ore samples, were being washed.
After the washing operation had been
concluded Miss Everson noticed that the
grease had come to the surface Of the
water in the washtub and had carried
with it particles Of metal. Being an ex.
pert assayer and chemist, she perceived
something odd about the matter, and In.
stituted series Of experiments, which
resulted in the patenting Of system Of
concentration utilizing oil to collect the
metal contents Of the ores treated. Mr..
Sxontagh endeavored to interest capital
in the process, but without success, and
he finally lost interest in the matter.
While connected with the Everson
process Mr.. Sxontagh made series Of
more than 100 tests in his laboratory AZ
TO the efficacy Of the process, and the
results achieved he describes as remark.
ably successful. In handling the ores Of
the urka.Excelsior property, for In.
stance, it was found that whereas the
recognized methods OF water concentra.
tion were unable to secure more than
thirty-fve per cent to forty per cent OF
the values, the oil process saved no less
than ninety per cent. He found that
any quality Of oil or grease was useful in
the process, thus obviating the purchase
of high class oils. 1t was found also that
an advantage was frequently had by per.
mitting small percentage OF the oil to
remain in the concentrated product, so
that il Il slight roasting was required
after concentration, the residue Of oil
furnished the necessary fuel.

CYCLISTS DREAM FULFILLED,

According to the Velo, the cyclists fondest wish is now fulfilled. The ideal n-puncturable tire has been discovered. The inventor took an air chamber of his devising to the office Of the newspaper, and there, in the presence of the amazed editor and his equally astounded staff, planted nee dies, thorns, tin tacks, and two inch nails into the tube without producing the slightest defation of the latter. The invention is an application of the properties of compressed India rub Der, which, when pierced, adheres so closely around the object causing the puncture as not to allow any escape of air to occur. This material has been used before. But the originality of the present invention appears to be the discovery of practical and sim Die method, first of attaching a band or the material in question to the chamber, and, secondly, of Keeping it III place and maintaining it in it's state of compression. The air tube Is con- structed as follows: The tread is of compressed India rubber, fixed be- tween strips of ineXtensible canvas in- side and out. It is claimed that all danger or bursting is removed, while punctures are rendered harmless. A nail trayersing the outer canvas, the compressed rubber, and the inner strip Of the former material. cannot pierce a hole through which air can pass. as the India rubber expands and fills up the hole. Ii drop of India rubber solution be poured into the place of the puncture the latter is still more se- curely sealed up. If all that Is said of the invention be true there ought certainly to be jubilation among cycl- ists. as the new air chamber, while i'm pervious to punctures and not liable to bursting. is stated to be as resilient and as fastsas an ordinary tube.-Lon- don Telegraph
