INITIATING TORTOISE SHELL
Only the Expert Able to Select The
Artificial.

"All my life have been handling
tortoise shell and limitations" said a
manufacturer, "and yet the resem-
blance is often so close that need
more than glance to determine
whether a comb is real tortoise or
not.
"The minor distinctions that are
noted by an experienced man are al
most inperceptible to an inexperi-
enced person, who Is examining the
better class of limitations. Yet In ap-
pearance, touch and smell there are
peculiarities which reveal to the ex-
pert whether the comb is of real
shell or not.
years ago the trade depended
mostly on bone or horn. with which
to initiate tortoise shell, and in horn
some fine work was done. But horn
has been getting more and more
scarce since the farmers took to rails
ing hornless cattle and the prices
have gone up so that they are more
than double what they were ten
years ago
Now little horn is used for this
purpose and there is variety of 9TH
er substitutes, the chief of which Is
easily celluloid. We can produce
in celluloid more beautiful combs
and a more perfect likeness of tor
toise shell than was ever made In
horn or any other material.
= -
celluloid comb to burn in an explo~
sive burst of fire and smoke II the
material Is of the better grades now
being produced and has been sea-
soned six months or year In the
factory.
Tortoise shell does not yield to
heat below the boiling point. Hold a
comb, and II the heat of your hand
SO affects the teeth that you can
bend them easily to other shapes you
have celluloid or some other mate
rial. Shell is almost as elastic as a
Damascan blade"
One of the manufacturers said
that the reason celluloid is not so
imfammable as formerly is that rub
ber is mixed with the guncotton and
camphor. After some years, he said,
celluloid will become brittle, while
shell one hundred years and more
old retains Its original qualities
