QUEENS PASTE GEMS.
The Famous Cullinan Diamonds Are
Never Worn.


Never Worn.
The Tower of London is undergoing
extensive alterations The crown jewels,
notwithstanding rumors to the contrary,
repose in a dungeon under the old foun-
dations of Dakefeld tower, near the
Darkstone stairway, which leads TO the
secret chamber where prisoners were left
to die in the Middle ages. The Bank of
England, however shelters the famous
Cullinan diamonds, which the Queen sup
posedly wears on great occasions. The
fact is the Queen has never worn the
jewel. The great diamond which rested
on her corsage at the last state opening
Of Parliament was a perfect model of the
real stone made in Amsterdam. The
Queen declines to wear the real one for
fear Of losing it.
When the Wakefield tower is again
opened to visitors the model of the Gull
Imam will once more CLEAN on its velvet
cushion. The Queens favorite gems are
amethyst and pearls.
