Tricks of Ancient Gold Workers.

There is papyrus which gives
recipes for various alloys used in the
manufacture of cups and vases, for
making gold and silver ink, for gliding
and silvering and for testing the purity
of precious metals. Other recipes
teach the method of classifying them
by adding baser metals-an operation
called diplosis. or doubling, for the
mass Of the gold and silver was dou-
bled, while their color remained I'M
changed and. as the compiler of the
manual remarks, skilled workman
would find it difficult or even impos-
sible to detect the fraud. The recipes
which recur most frequently describe
various modes of preparing Assem-,
word which originally meant natural
alloy Of gold and silver known to the
Greeks as electrum. 1t was at first
looked upon as distinct metal, was
considered sacred TO Jupiter and was
designated by the sign of that planet
but at a later period the name was ap-
piled to all alloys, and in this fact
seems to lie the explanation of the
origin Of alchemy Both gold ana
silver could be extracted from genuine
asem, and ii seemed as though it could
be changed at the will of the operator
into either one or the other 1t could
also be made artificially by mlngllng
gold and silver. or closely initiated by
some of the numerous alloys, eleven OF
