The Great Stock of Arizona Semi.
Precious Stones at Cut Prices.

There are costlier gems than the
semi precious stones of Arizona but
there are none more beautiful. Few
people know how rich this territory is
in them, but one may get a good idea
by inspecting the stock at Balke's Big
Curio store. which is the largest col
lection i'm the world of semi precious
stones. They are all hand-cut, some
loose and others mounted in gold or
silver. in rings brooches, stick pins
etc The stones are of the following
varieties: chriseeola. peridot. chrysi-
dolite. American jade, turquoise and
turquoise matrix. blood 81 me. rubies
and garnets, malachite in emeralds,
white. pink and blue sapphires. pink
tourmaline. sardonyx, amethyst and
topaz in different colors.
Besides these, the Big Curio store
carries always a large stock of genuine
Mexican opals. There is nowhere else
in the country where these stones have
been sold so cheap as at the Big Curio
store. but now, in the closing out sale
they are sold cheaper than ever.
The Big Curio store is prepared to
do mounting so that>if one has a ring
