Turquoise In Favor

    Turquoises are growing more and more into favor --- quite a small stone of good color costing about seven pounds. They are tíresome stones to wear on account of their so often losing their color and turning green. Turquoise rings must always be removed before washing the hands, as water completely ruins them; and any grease touching them is even more disastrous, so people with moist skin seldom manage to keep the color of the of the stone -----  Philadelphia Ledger.
