The expansive force of compressed air is employed in an interesting way by a North Carolina granite company. On a sloping hillside, composed of granite which shows no bad planes, but splits readily in any direction when started. a three-inch bore is sunk about eight feet deep and. the Bottom is enlarged by the exploding of half a stick of dynamite. A small charge of powder is fired in this hole, which starts a horizontal crack or cleavage. Charges increas- ing in size are exploded until the cleavage has extended over a radius of seventy-five or one hundred feet. Then a pipe is cemented into the bore and air is forced in under a pressure of from eighty to one hundred pounds. The expansion of the air extends the cleavage until it comes out at the surface on the slope of the hill. A sheet of granite several acres in extent may thus be separated. Money Value of Politeness. The attitude of too many public servitors seems to be one of hostility toward the public. Manifest indispo- sition to answer perfectly proper juustions is shown. Such defects ot character are almost certain to bar the way to advancement in any call- ing. Superior ability may bring a high legree of success without any grace or Suavity of manner, but the majority of employes do not possess exception- al talents and must rise by energy, in- tegrity and a pleasing personality. last-named quality more than any explains the rise of certain per: ordin Very their way cheerful, f 1 specialty of Middle West,” with a he aid cl rd served i of a ful, lived care be- the cabin the tri- as the author hat was 1 boo alone in a cahbir 1 each, tells of an | COUNTY COMMISSIONERS | ITASCA COUNTY, MINN.
