TIE POTATO AS SUBSTITUTE IVORY.
Billiard balls made of pure ivory are, ac-
cording to 8 French contemporary, becom-
ing rare, since some ingenious inventor has
discovered that billiards can be played as
we'll with potatoes submitted to process of
his own. It's rather startling to hear OF
the familiar potato usurping the ivory ball !;
but the inventor referred 10 guarantees as
to their adaptabiity for the purpose, and it
is needless to point out that the saving OF
expense is very considerable. The potatoes
chosen for manipulation must be perfectly
sound and we'll developed. After carefully
peeling them and removing discolored or
spongy portions, they are left during GER
tain period to steep in pure water, to which
sulphuric acid is subsequently added. This
preliminary treatment accomplished, the
operator boils the vegetable for prolonged
period in chemical preparation in which
sulphuric acid is the principal Ingredient,
great care being necessary at this stage ofthe
transformation The potato thus treated be-
comes gradually hard, and after being ex-
posei 10 slow drying proce s is warranted
not to crack, but to be in every respect an
excellent substitute for ivory.
