To paz is a semi -precious stone and ranks number 8 on the scale of hardness it is known for its great hardness. Its color is char acteristically yellow, from a can ary yellow to a deep orange; but is also found in blue, green, smoky, white or colorless. Brazil's "precious topaz" is wine-yellow and is sometimes altered to a delicate pink by heating. If you should eer get to Siberia there are large rich blue crystals and magnificent transparent, brown cr y s t a 1 s which rank among the finest of all mineral specimen. The gem stone, Zircon, was described by Betty Wagner. Zir con is hard, being number 7.5 FOR THAT SPECIAL SOMETHING FOR HER Lovely Lady ROBES DRESSY BOUCLE BLOUSES BERKSHIRE LINGERIE on the scale of hardness. It commonly occurs as reddish- brown or erav and not in frequently, yellow, red or color less, rarely blue or green, in Florida. India and elsewhere it is found as a beach sand, often in minute crystals of great beauty. Choice eems come from the red crystals of Ceylon and France. Sorry that none or these localities are listed in Oregon! The artificially colored, sky-blue gems ("starlite") of Slam are pxceDtionallv attractive and the color is obtained by special heat ing processes.
