Sometimes I think that the educe, "all

constructed by people in our Une of bud-
am and made to read, “ail gold dose not
glitter," remarked one of the leading
manufacturing jewelers of Pittsburg to
the writer. in proof of this Assertion he
exhibited several pieces eg gold, as nearly
pure os It can be, aug still be worked to
good advantage. The material looked
very much like old brass, and was so
dingy and lustarless that none but an ex
pert would have pronounced it gold.
Two small straight pieces, in shape and
sue very much like small horseshoe nails,
were shown, and them, the jeweler said,
would be transformed into toe main por
tion of a finger ring, after being bent,
shaped and properly joined together.

The manufacturer next unlocked his
safe and brought forth some of its rare
and costly treasures. There were dia
monds, rubies, pearls, emeralds, sap
phires, amethysts and scores of other
precious stones, in infinite variety, from
all .parts of the earth. •
“We are obliged to keep a large stock
on hand," said the jewoler.'mradi larger
than the eastern manufacturers, who are
able to send out and bay what they want
at any time. A good deal of our work
consists in the making of badges, pins,
medals and other designs to crosr, tot
short notice, and a large assortment of
precloua atones is therefore indispensable,
we have diamonds of every rise, ranging
. from large and perfect stones several
carats in weight and worth hundreds of
dollars, down to the merest speck, cost
ing' less than half a dollar. Tes, you can
buy a genuine diamond for 40 cents, but
it won’t beluga enough to be remarks-.
Wy ooosptouoos. Pearls, too, we bam
in great numbers, some larger, than pea*
and others smaller than r°nh«y/i«. The
greater part of those g-uns are cut and
polished abroad. Even the California
pearl, fished from iho ocean by divers
the
iooest, goes abroad to
toe hands of German lapidaries, and to
tothiscountr
then brought back to this country to be
set in jewelry. The greater number of
pearls found are imperfect, and all such
have to bo cut, majdng what are known
as half pearls.
“We carry, also, a large stock of imi
tation stones. Every real gem is imi
tated, and the more precious the stone
toe greater will bo tho number of imita
tions. Many of too imitations are so per
fect that only experts can distinguish
them from too genuine. All stones for
settings ate bought by us, cut and pol-
iahedand ready for use. They are aU
graded according to the French measuro-
.ment, and the peohagee containing them
marked with toe exact size of each
piece in millimetres. Take this line of
turquois, for instance, and you will ob-

For weighing diamonds and other
precious stones a very delicate instru'
ment, known as the diamond scale, is
used. It consists of balances, and is so
delicate that it will turn when a weight
equal to one sixty-fourth part of a carat
is placed upon it The smaller weights
used oh toe scales are of aluminum, toe
lightest metal known, and a piece one
shri^-fourth of a carat in weight is but a
j filmy scale that jibe breath would

A prater is a common nuisance, and as
great a grievance to those that come near
him os a powtercr is to his neighbors.
His discourse is' like the braying of a
mortar, toe more impertinent the. more
voluble and loud, as a pestle makes more
noise when it is rung on the sides of a
mortar, than when it stamps downright,
and bits upon toe business. A dog that

of activity, but tortures him, as they cor

earwig; when ho gets within a man’s ear,
he is not easily to be got out again. He
