Why Inks Are Called Invisible"

Sympathetic inks are preparations used fer forming characters which only become visible on the application of heat or of some chemical agent. Many chemicals which form in themselves colorless solutions, but which develop color under the influence of reagents, may be used as sympathetic inks, but they are of little practical utility. Characters written in a weak solution of gall develop dark color on being treated with weak solution of copper as, or vice versa. Writings done in va rious preparations develop color on heat ing, which fades as the paper cools. Among such substances are solutions of the acetate and the chloride of cobalt and the chloride of nickel. Characters traced in a weak solution of nitrate of silver darken on exposure to light.

A Loss of About S1OO, ,OOO Caused by Isad
 Management.
 The report of Comptroller Staub on School Fund Commissioner Olney's books has been made public. The investigation was brought about by the school fund dedication in Ohio. He states that as near as can be ascertained, between 1880 and the present time there is loss in the capital of the fund in round numbers of s100,OO0. It appears that there is at present invested in Ohio and Indiana S860, TAO of the entire fund of $2, ,014, ,449.- fl. He finds that these investments have been made at the hands of loan agents, who have had no interest in whether loans were good or bad, other than to receive the commission. His conclusion is that the expense of management of the school fund is at least 60 per cent more than the cost of management of the same amount of property held by Connecticut savings l-c
