The name diamond, derived from the Latin Adamus, means invincibly, and refers to the great hardness of the gem. A pei fectly proportioned diamond when finished represents only about one-third the original weight of the same stono in the rough, ab Hit one-third of the material cut away being saved as dia ino id dust, the balance being deposited on the wheel, feeding it as it wore, as tho stone is being polished The cleaving are usually of tri inul.ir shap9. nil are in their turn cur into s n tiler brilliants, or when this is impossible on account of their thinness, into so-called Rose diamond:. The value of the diamond depsnds upon its pu ity, frneness from imperfections and brilliancy, and in fancy colors upon the rareness of the color. Pliny, in writing of the diamond, sajs: "The most valuable thing on earth is the diamond, known only to the kings, and to them imperfectly. In a general way this is true to day, the only exception being the ruby when it is of rare quality in ihe matter of color and perfection. Then and only then does the statement of Pliny admit of qualification.
