Diamond Talk No. 4. How to Jud$e Diamonds With a diamond of good shape, the next consideration is that of good cutting. The cutting of a diamond, means the laying on of the fifty-eight facets, including the large facet at the top. called the table, and the small one at the bottom called the culet. The facets are polished on by contact with a fast revolving steel plate, the surface of which Is treat, ed with a paste of diamond dust and olive oil. The work Is guaged entirely br the eye. and requires not only constant attention, but great skill, experience and much time. To polish on the facets of a carat diamond, requires about sixty hours contact with the polishing plate. In this process more than one-half of the diamond is lost or wssted, for it requires a rough diamond of one and one-quarter carets to produce a finished half caret. The labor and waste mentioned explain one rc-son for the high price of diamonds. (Continued Tomorrow.) 0. E. Dickinson Special Agent for Hamilton Watches Seth Thomas Clocks.
