Nearly every ruby and all emeralds

stones is readily established.
Such a test is very necessary with
rubies. because the mutations are
very deceiving.
Their color is absolutely durable
and often much finer than that of the
genuine. although il may be stated
that a somewhat yellowish tint is al
ways suspicious.
The only reliable way in which
genuine rubies can be told from imi-
tations is by the minute air-bubbles
of the latter, which become clearly
visible under the magnifying glass.
These are not TO be found in the

limitations lack certain defects char

vacuums. whose outlines are much
more indistinct than those Of the air
bubbles in limitations.
True emeralds have true character

liquids and curious dendrites. Sap

formations.
