one OF the sights OF London Is the
great ivory door at the London docks,
where previous to and during the Pc
rIodicai sales ivory may be seen liter
ally by the acre. for the tusl<s are laid
out in lots on the Aoor OF one of the
great warehouses for inspecIIUah by In
tending purchasers. For weeks previ-
GUS to the actual sale the special STAN
OF the ivory department hns been busy
preparing the various constgnmentS
aud arranging them according to the
sizes and quality and chasing them
into the various grades, each of which
has some particular use for which It II
especially adapted
There Is practically no waste IN the
manufacturing of articles from ivory.
The smallest chip is not thrown away,
bnt carefully preserved to be utilized
for some purpose. Even the shaVinSs
from the turning down of billiard
bali have a market value for use in in
laid work Consequently the lots in an
ivory sale by no means consist OF
tusks and sections of tusks alone, DuC
include the residue from many previous
sales. Buyers purchase the particular
class that they require for their own
individual industry and subsequently
return what in most Otuer uuleil+AAS
would lie waste to be resoId to mhnu-
facturers of 4 different class of goods
Though there Is mo waste" oddly
enough the most important considera-
ton. from a buyers point of view, Is
show much waste will n certain lot
produce in the course OF transforming
it into his own particular line. Thus
a lot that would be dear to one would
he a gift to another. and vice versa.
The most valuable class OF ivory IS
that suitable for making billiard balls
To conform to the requirements the
tusk must be perfectly sound and
solid, without the slightest suspicion
of a crack or flaw, and, moreover. they
must .Tneasure only q tribe more than

they will cut to waste, from the manu-
facturers' point of view. On the arriv-
a! of a consignment OF unworlled ele-
phant ivory from abroad the first prep
aratfon for the sale floor consists OF a
thorough cleaning of the interior or
hollow part of the tusll. This Is done
by means OF wads attached TO long
sticks The exact length of the hollow
is thereby revealed, and In addition
cracks and flaws that cannot be OBJ
served on the exterior are at times dis
closed. Soundness is the one thing
thar swaps every class OF buyer; flaws
moan waste; waste means resale at
tower figure per pound.

IT, Point Of view.

Zangwin. the noted writer, had an
experience which convinced him that
in deciding what constitutes real great-
ness good deal depends upon the
point of view. At n political meeting
he fell into conversation with man
who knew all the speakers and pointed
them out as they sat on the platform,
