CASH TALKS Our agent in Los Angeles has sent us another one of those ex- traordinary Diamond Bargains. It is a stone weighing more than three-fourths of a carat, fine blue white color and practically per- fect. It is mounted in a platinum setting surrounded with eight small- er diamonds two of which are marquise shaped. The whole job cost ‘somebody about $750.00 several| ® years ago. Times must be tough down, there with lots of sellers and few buyers when they let these things“go ‘for the price it is offered to ums., We don't meed it in our business and will pass it on to somebody for $250.00 cash or send it back. This is an apportunity for somebody with some idle money. as even if the world goes broke this value will not get any lower and when we come back there will be a nice profit. See us promptly if you are interested.
