IVORY scARcER AND scARcER.

Columbus Dispatch: Genuine ivory
which in carved effects is held OF
such beauty and value in jewelry Is
more than usually scarce in the mar
kets of the world. The war was re-
sponsible for most everything that
went wrong in human affairs and the
scarcity of ivory was due also to it.
While engaged in hunting men the
world had little time to devote to
hunting the animals which produce
ivory
The worlds ivory is obtained from
the tusks of the elephants. hippo
potamus, walrus, norwhal and pre-
historic mamoth sometimes found
frozen in Arctic ice foes and
morasses. The ivory of elephants
tusks is the most valuable because of
its color, fine grain and elasticity.
Even in normal times the supply Of
ivory is extremely limited and is
growing smaller as civilization inches
its way year By year into African
jungles and ivory-bearing animals are
gradually disappearing before the in
road of hunters.
To supply the demand for ivory. a
demand that increases as the supply
diminlSheS, many forms OF aftillClal
ivory have been invented and vegeta-
BILE ivory has become popular as a
substitute. Some Of these imitation
worries are difficult to ditinguish
from the genuine except by the ex-
pert Real ivory is form of den
tine and bears the mark of its genu-
ineness on any crosscut section in
lines of varying shades running in
arcs and forming minute loZenge-
shaped spaces. Vegetable ivory comes
from South American palm-like
plant which bears fruit as large as
a coaconut The kernels of this fruit
are known as coroza nuts. They are
somewhat smaller than a hens egg
and are formed of the vegetable ivory
of commerce This vegetable ivory
is used largely in the manufacture
of buttons and ornaments.
