Drilled Through Them.
The means OF ascertaining the genu-

cIrSlitated with marvellous skill. is es-
Eyscially important to the layman, even
slough the jeweler may quickly detect
Hhem. limitations are usually lighter
shan real pearls and generally are brit
lie, although some are made solid Of
zEsh scales and do not break so easily,
-r1hile the holes, which in the real pearl
aare drilled very small and have sharp
edge, are in the false larger and have a
a4unt edge. AS Il rule. the imitation
gsearls are like hollow spheres of glass
5'ored internally with a coating im-
- ing the orient of natural pearl.
The manufacture of these articles
embraces two series of operations--the
production of the sphere and the intro

1gY0duced by the glassblower who by
aii Of IN enameler's lamp soldiers the
extremity of u tube when the sub

In the more beautiful limitations the
a,abe employed is slightly opalescent.

zAe little spheres while they are yet
