The COMING METAL.



Aluminium soon to rake tho Place of All

A director Of some of the Alabama
mines, n Mr. Chamberlain, thinks that

clay. This metal is throo times as
strong as steel, bo says, and but one

advantage over all forms of iron of
being capable of better service and
being more easily handlcd. But it
costs $500 ton now. and IL IS used In

uro that II could easily ill altogether
