CA CAGO, Nov. 4-e your diamond

your mind the best thing is' to take

losing Ita globular shape. On a, gen

It. It will chip a counterfeit. When
marked by an aluminum pencil a gen

mark stubbornly.
The best test of all Is that of spe-.

specific gravity of 3.62. If you don't
know how to meake specific gravity
any chemist can take it for you.
