Atchison Philosophy.

Every man has too much faith in
other mems faith in him.
People never sympathize with those
whom they cannot understand.
Every man will sooner or later meet
the man who will knock the clip of
his shoulder.
No man can warn Others without
making the admission that he was
once a fool himself.
A man should count his years by
the number of his experiences; not by
the number of months.
Men spend nine-tenths of their time
in looking for ~favors, N less than
one-tenth in doing favors.
towards waste a great deal OF energy
in running after enemies who are toe
far ahead to be caught.
There are very few things that you
can receive an invitation to and not
be called on afterward to pay your
dues.
1t is very much easier for the aver
age man to make a sacrifice for a
friend than it is to resist telling him
afterward hat it was a sacrifice.

How Tin Plates are Made.

Following is a summary ofthe More
wood process of thinning plates now in
use at the works OF the United States
Iron and Tin Plate Company, Limited,
at Demmler Station, Pa.
The plates are rolled in the ordinary
manner into black sheets, eight o I
these sheets being rolled at one time,
and after being sheared TO size are
placed in the "black pickle" bath OF
sulphuric acid, where all oxidation is
removed. They are placed in an an
healing furnace for SO hours and are
next passed through the cold rolls, re-
ceiving a smoothly polished surface,
after which they are annealed again
and put into the "white pickle" where
they are cleansed from any oxidation
and are ready for the thinning process.
The mode OF putting on the coating of
tin is a very simple one, and is begun
by submerging the plates in a bath OF
palm oil until all the water disappears,
the oil forming a t1ux for the tin, the
first coat OF which is received in the
TIN pot, the plates next being dlpped
into the wash pot" and when taken
out the tin is spread over the surface
with a brush by hand. The final act
in the tin coating process is the pass
ing the plates through rolls running in
palm oil, whereby the tin is evenly dis
tributed and "A smooth surface is OBJ
tanned. There are five OF these rolls
used, three running OIL top oftwo, and
Th. N ataG Vnalya pyn GaaG thrn1uh
them, first being let down through the
first and second of the upper set, and
by a cradle arrangement are returned
through the second and third. This
completes the timing operation
proper, ard the polish is obtained by
rapid movements OF the plates through
bran and middlings, respectively, and
then polishing with sheepskin. The
result obtained at the Demmler works
is a very excellent article OF bright tin
plate.-Iron Industrial Gazette.
