A simple method of approximate an- alyzation of metal has been introduced in France recently, based upon the | sparks emitted when the steel Is pressed upon a grindstone. Each kind of steel gives its own characteristic shower of sparks, from which a practiced eye can judge of its hardness and quality. There are three principal forms of sparks. In the first, the incandescent particle makes very fine luminous threads. In the second, the shower is decorated with a few ex- plosions of tiny “shells.” In the third, the shower is made up of these little explosions. In addition to these forms, the expert classifies the sparks by their volor, red, yellow or white in a great & Round Trip — Only $342 Cottonwood to Gardiner June to September Northern Pacific Ry. “2000 Miles of Startling Beauty” variety of shades, ‘Lhe grinding 1s, of course, done in a dark room, A piece of steel containing a little carbon makes straight yellow lines; as the content of carbon Increases explos- lve sparks appear and become more numerous the more carbon there Is, and the straight rays diminish in size and number, Steels with a high car- bon content give a short shower of sparks, explosions taking place near the éxtremity and all dazzling white. Steels containing 18 per cent tung- sten give only a few dark red rays. Manganese steels give white sparks with explosions at the end and some- times in the middle. Chrome-tungsten steel gives bright red and dark red rays alternating with the white.

H. KENDALL, CONFECTIONERY AGES-OLD SIGN IS PASSING —_— Pawnbrokers Gradually Doing Away With Emblem That Has Been Common the World Over. The crest of the house of Lombardi, which for three centuries has topped the entrance to every pawnshop in Christendom, is gradually coming down. Here in New York the fire department has discovered that the three golden balls, which remind you that your watch and your overocat are ever-present friends in need, seriously hamper the operations of the fire-fight- ing forces. The department has sent out no con- erete orders to do away with the signs, but the pawnbrokers themselves have come to the conclusion that their busi- ness can be as effectually served by painting the three golden balls on their display windows as by hanging them out in the open where every be- deviled kid in the nelghborhood takes a shot at them with a stone. But the three balls will all be down inside of a year or so, is the predic- tion of a pawnbroker on lower Park row. “Your Uncle Abe,” he said, “doesn’t have to depend on the sign of the llouse of Lombardi, The man or wom- an who ts ‘broke’ has learned the loca- tion of the pawnshops. It has been found that the three balls have actual- ly impeded business. Men and women who want to negotiate a loan on their personal effects hesitate to enter a pawnshop which is heralded to the world, by the three balls, “They want privacy, and they are entitled to the same consideration from us as the big banking houses accord their patrons who need financial as- sistance, We are taking down the three balls gradually, but we are hav- ing a monogram made on the windows which serves the same purpose. Every sign or symbol aboye the door is an obstacle in the way of the fire fighters and there is no sense in the three-ball sign anyway.”—New York Sun. KIND OF LITERATURE WANTED Burton Willing to Invest Only If Book Would Show How He Could Profit Financially. “May I have a few moments of your time?” Py Burton looked up from his desk and beheld a smiling young man. How- ever, the young man did not wait for consent, but continued with his propo- sition. “J have here something which I feel sure you will be Interested in. Some- thing which ought to be in the hands of every business man in this city. Something which—” “Just a minute,” Burton interrupted. “What is this ‘something?’ ” “Ah! Now we're getting along,” the young man enthused. “I represent the Atlas Publishing company, and the ar- ticle which I want to show to you Is a book which—” “No books,” Burton insisted shortly and firmly. “But this is an unusual book!” the agent protested. “They all are!” Burton observed. “Buy this book and learn how to be your own lawyer,” the agent insisted. “So that’s it?” Burton asked. “Well, young man, I will buy if you have a book that tells me how to be somebody else’s lawyer. That’s where the money is.".—Kansas City Star. Early Church in Amertca. The Church of England, which be- came the Episcopal church in America, came with the very first settlers to Virginia, before the Pilgrim Fathers of 1620 had settled at Plymouth. Parsons throughout early Maryland were paid their salary in tobacco. The parsons worked hard for their pay in this queer coin, for often they had to ride many miles to their churches on horseback through rough bridle paths, or sail the salt waters in frail skiffs. One of these good men in Delaware, at a place called Appoquinimink, was practically bitten to death by mosqui- toes, for he was so polsoned by them that he died of fever, Episcopalians inherited from the Swedish Lutherans at Wilmington, Old Swedes church, built In 1698, and now one of the oldest buildings in the United States continuously occupied for worship. World’s Most Perfect Tower, Among the wealth of beauty and magnificence In and about Delhi, one of the most wonderful sights Is the Kutub Minar, said to be the most per- fect tower in the world, It stands 10 miles outside the city in the midst of a vast pile of ruins which tell of Delh!’s ancient greatness, when it was the largest city of India. The Minar soars 288 feet above the plain, Its sandstone sides are deeply fluted, and shade from purplish reds through pink to orange In the topmost of its five balconied stories. It was bullt by followers of Allah. In the Vernacular, Napoleon’s invasion of Russia was the subject under discussion in the class in history and the teacher was dofng her utmost to make every sen- tence clear. Referring to his retreat from Moscow she asked: “And then, James, what did the French do?” “They } ran away,” was the quick reply. “Yes. they ran away, James, but that Is hard- ly the correct phrase to use,” said the teacher. “Now think and tell me what you should have said.” James was lost in deep thought for a moment, then his face beamed benignantly in the dight ef a new thought. “Oh, t kuow,” he coed. “hey beat it.” er SECTS Tt an De ee a se se ee is $0 RPHEU SUNDAY, APRIL 22 Gladly do we present to you tonight, a Laurence Thimble, Jane Murfin pro- duction, the greatest dog- starring picture ever flash- ed over the silver sheet, featuring Strongheart Famous police dog, the wonder dog who thrilled the world in “The Silent Call” now in a greater sen- sation BRAWN OF THE NORTH A terrific story out of the heart of the famine— lands of the north, of mother-love and dog devo- tion—a story of a giant dog guarding a babe in the snows; of famine-mad wolf packs circling them; of a demented mother crying for her child.

Set Beau Brummel Shirts *| STOPS SPREAD OF DISEASE How the Panama Canal Has Been Turned to Good Account as a “Health Filter.” The geographical position of the Panama canal makes it possible to gigantic filter for the removal of dis- ease from the circulation of maritime commerce, thus inhibiting the spread of disease, aecording to a report of the Panama canal health department. The periodic fumigation of ships, the instruction of owners, agents and officers of ships as to the necessity for adequately rat-guarding the vaccination of crews, and passen- gers and the Investigation of disease outbreaks on board arriving ships, combine to this end as well as to the protection of the Canal Zone and the vessels using canal ports and water- ways. For example, an outbreak of mild smallpox on one vessel was han- died without secondary cases or spread to other ships of the fleet, and cerebrospinal meningitis on another steamship was also successfully con- trolled. It is believed that the order direct- ing attention to the necessity for ade- quately rat-guarding ships has pro- duced results of widespread benefit; certainly the .requirement of periodic utilize it, In a quarantine sense, as a | 14 aa Contfhuous Facing Preverits Tearing."
