A native Of Ceylon has had an ex.
traordinary ruiz Of luck in the finding
Of cats eye gems. He was quite a
poor mar whom some months ago he
found a gem worth f1,250. Soon
afterward he found another. which he
sold for 92.500. And o he has
crowned his good fortune by finding
the largest known gem of the kind,
which weighs nearly seven pounds.
and for which he has refused Els, 900.
He says that he can cut the gem into
forty stones, each Of which will bring
$1,000. This means wealth beyond
the dreams Of avarice in the East
