HELIoDoR, THE NEW GEM.
Experts Say 1t Ranks With the Ruby
and the Emerald.

Experts Say It Ranks With the Ruby
and the Emerald.
A new gem, given the name of ''heli-
odor," and found in German South
Africa, has taken its place among the
jewels The German kaiser recently
gave one of the stones to the kaiserin.
The discovery of the new stone was
made by the governor and director of
the German colonial society while he
was travelling in German South Africa.
In the sand near the railway between
Swakopmund and Windhuk he found
large crystal, rough and unpromising
in appearance. He carried it with
him to Germany and had it cut and
polished in a diamond cutting factory.
The result was a surprising clear. pale
aquamarine of great briliance.
The German colonial Office immedi-
ately took possession of the ground
upon which the crystal was found.
and great number of the crystals
are now making their appearance upon
the German market. Experts agree
that the new gem is entitled TO rank
with the ruby OF emerald.-PopuIar
