PORT CHESTER. X. Y Aug. 25 Mrs. Wm. Jennings lost a diamond out of her ring three months ago. She killed one of her chickens yesterday and found the jewel in its crop.
Expert Knowledge IN THE SELECTION OF A( DIAMOND IS NOT A COMMON GIFT . It therefore behooves you to place your confidence and trust in the reliability of a jeweler of known worthiness, a firm whose attitude toward everything in their store insists that it be the very finest quality and in keeping with their reputation for dependability. The diamond that is to be a gift, or for self-adornment, and the engagement ring, should come from a store that has been serving Richmond folks for over 66 years.
