Possibilities of Aluminium.

If aluminium ever becomes available
as commercial product there will be
no limit to its uses, for it is far more
abundant than any metal or mineral
1t is contained in common clay, of which
it constitutes one of the chief ingredi-
ents. At present it cannot be got out of
the clay except by burning the latter at
a heat four times as great as that of
the ordinary smelling furnace, heat
which cannot easily be produced except
by electricity. But the progress of
chemistry is likely to discover some
new and cheaper process of extraction.
Some of the most alert minds in Ger
many, England and this country are
concentrated ON experiments with clay.
Scores of patents have already been
taken out in all countries. Any year
may witness the solution Of the problem
and the creation of metal which may
relegate steel to the background. We
may live to'see cities built of aluminium,
incom bustible, almost 1mperishable, and
so portable that men. like snails, may
carry their houses on their backs when
they change their quarters Scientific

II is a remarkable fact that the
deepest parts of the sea are In all
cases very near the land. The deep
est sounding known, 4,o65 fathoms,
or 1880 feet, was obtained ITO miles
from the Kurile islands; the next
deepest, 1851 fathoms, was found 20
miles north of Porto Rico. With a
few exceptions like these the depth
of the ocean, as far as now known,
does not reach 1000 fathoms, or four
sea miles. The North Pacific has a
mean depth of $500 fathoms, the
South Pacific of 2,40O. the Indian
ocean of 1000, and the Atlantic, by
far the hest investigated ocean, has
q mean depth of 200 fathoms.

true, but is half true. All knowledge
Is by comparison: II is entirely Inn
possible to realize what language Is
unless one knows at least two Ian
guages. If Il 10 worth while to try
TO realize that matter is composed
of molecules and atoms, II Is GER
tainly worth while TO try to acquire
realization In the only way IL can
be acquired, of the nature of Ian
guage, the fundamental fact of our
intellectual and social life.
Space will not permit us to enter
much into the question of the liter
AIRY side of language study, though
it is obviously the most important
of all. The best thing that we in
herit from the past or can import
from abroad is literature-the con-
centration of all that is best in the
life and thought of generation or
nation. No one language enjoys
monopoly of good literature, no
one literature can be fully appre-
ciated except with reference to all
the others. Every intelligent man
or woman, whatever be his special
interests or profession, must all his
life be student of literature; il is
the one central and common inter
est of cultured humanity. a
knowledge of foreign languages is
the only key to an adequate appre-
citation of universal literature;
translations can never take the
place of originals.
The value of our study from this
standpoint has reference to high,
not to low ideals of life. One whose
social ideals are satisfied with n
howell and rags to clothe his naked
ness has no need of wealth; one
whose intellectual ideals are CORE
spondingly limited has no need OF
foreign languages nor any OF the
other elements of a liberal cduca-
ton. Su:h things are not for the
satisfaction of mental necessities,
but for the furnishing out of men:
tai wealth. To him who does not
care for mental wealth il is useless
to hold out its attractions; he will
not understand. But to him who
has an appreciation of high ideals
and an ambition to realize them the
advantages of the study OF foreign
languages will not seem vague or
doubtful, but very real and very
certain.

FIXING A BOUNDARY LINE.

The United States international
boundary commission has recently
completed the work of establishing
25S monuments marking the line
between Mexico and the United
States from FL Paso to the Pacific
ocean, n distance of about 100 miles.
The staff. consistingof about eighty
engineers, soldiers. and laborers,
began the work about two and one
half years ago. The original line
was established in 1910 TO 1888. ] o
the - monuments then erected 2U6
more have been added. They CON
sist, for the most part, OF plain iron
shafts ON rock and cement founda-
tons.
BY agreement with Mexico il was
decided that any errors discovered
in the original survey should not
he corrected so far ~ ownership of
territory was concerned. The larg-
est error found was along the New
Mexico boundary whereby Uncle
Sam gains nearly forty square miles
of land which the new survey shows
to be in Mexico. Much of the trip
of the surveyors was through Ari-
IONA deserts, where water cost at
times twenty-five cents II gallon. 1t
was conveyed 10 the party in tanks
holding 400 gallons each and drawn
by four mules. The air of the des-
ert being intensely dry causes rapid
evaporation from the body, and
nine quarts of water daily was
needed by each man to prevent the
blood from thickening and becom-
ing feverish. Each mule required
twenty gallons daily. Sometimes
the temperature was as high as 10
degrees, and the air, being almost
absolutely dry, fresh meat, instead
of putrefying, dried up. The bones
OF those who had died of thirst lay
scattered all along the desert. The
few animals to be found there seem
to exist without any regular water
supply. Coyotes, antelopes and
gophers eat the pear and prickly
cactus, fruit that is covered with
small spines and from which much
moisture is obtained.
Death in sandstorms is one of the
dangers of the desert. The survey
ors were once nearly killed by suffo-
cation during such a storm. Dur
ing the half hour that the storm
was seen to approach, the camp was
made ready. The waves of wind
and dust broke over il with much
violence. The men were beginning
to suffocate when an officer ordered
them to breathe through their
handkerchiefs. Thus they were en-
abled to obtain barely enough air
TO sustain life. Without the hand
kerchiefs the noses and mouths of
the men became caked with dust,
and they gasped for breath. The
fury of the storm passed in fifteen
minutes; even the veteran officers
thought that every member of the
party was doomed.
The monument marking the ex-
treme southwestern oundaryof the
United States on the Pacific coast
is of fine Italian granite, and was
brought around Cape Horn and
erected In 1851.
