A New Uso For Natural Gas,


The possibilities of natural gas evi-
IDENTIFY have not yet. been exhausted.
The latest use which would seem to
have been found for it is the making
Of ice, the idea being to simply ex-
pand the gas from its usually high
initial pressure down to or near that
of the atmosphere, nature having
done all the preliminary work Of
compression and cooling, making the
gas. ready to absorb heat from it's
surroundings Immediately upon be-
ing released from confinement. All
that would be necessary would be
suitable coils or chambers into which
the gas could be allowed to expand.
It has. been calculated out quite
plausibly fact, that with an ordi-
nary gas well, furnishing 1,500, 1000
cubic feet per day, something Like 50
tons Iof ice could be turned out daily
at an expense of about 50 cents a ton.
The gas loses nothing but it's pres
sure, retaining all it's calorifc value,
and hence all its virtue for rolling
mill mill and glass works use, for heat
ing brick, lime and pottery kilns and
the,;endless number of other furnaces
f. to which it is adapted. a certain
way, therefore, the. gas may be re-
garded as afording something for
nothing-=a desideratum to which
manyzn this world are constantly
looking forward. -Cassier's Maya

Walter Besant's Cynical Views.

Novelist Walter Besant is credited
with the authorship of these some
what cynical views Of life as it is
lived: "Out of ten men nine are born
to work for the tenth. Resolve to
be. the tenth. Without trampling
the cleverest cannot get rich. The
consolation of those who fail is to
depreciate those who succeed. The
greatest things are done by the great
est fools. Wise men never attempt
anything. When YOU lose a leg, be-
gin at once to practice with wood
en- one. Mems motives are merci-
fully hidden by their shirt fronts.
Observe moderation in all things,
especially; in virtues. The best way
to make a~oan honest is to make
him ashamed, of being found out.
There may be pride even 10 confess
ing mistakes. Everybody says that
gentle birth is an accident, and ev
erybody treats it as an achievement.
The most charming attribute of
friendship is the right of candor.''
