TORTOISE SHELL.
The Best Initiation of 1t Is Made of
Ccllulofd,


CcllulOfd.
"Celluloid makes the. best imitation
of tortoise SHE'LL" says manufacturer.
at has the requisite hardness and lus-
ter and approximates so closely to the
real shell that, although l have han
died both products many years, l can
not always tell one from another ut
glance. OF course l can do so by
making close inspection. The ability
to distinguish shell from celluloid by
the appearance can only be acquired
by years of experience in handling
both.
''rhe principal way in which cellu-
loid is revealed is in its susceptibility
to the influence of heat. Hold a cell
luloid comb in your hand and the heat
of the body will cause the teeth, after
81 few moments, to give Il trifie, and
there is not the elasticity in springing
back that you will observe in real
shell. Tortoise shell will not bend I'M
less subjected to heat at the boiling
point. There is, of course. Il great DIFF
ference in the celluloid employed in
manufacturing combs, and some of the
combs that are put out under that
name are not entitled to the desigIa-
ton. Even when the celluloid is of the
highest grade it then should be season.
! ed from three to twelve months in or
der that there may be no danger of 1t
rinking."--Jewelers' Circular.
