Artificial Cotton Yarn.

The production of artificial cotton yarn
from wood pulp is declared by Rhode Is
land experimenter to be practicable In
dustry, the difference between the two ma.
terials being said to be very slight as re
CARDS appearance, softness, strength, lus-
ter and general condition. 1t appears that
for this purpose the wood of the spruce or
tho pine Is used and is deflbrated, after
which 1t is disintegratcd thoroughly and
subjected to n good bleaching, much de
pending upon the latter process, an essen
tial point being that the whiteness of the
stock equals that of the genuine cotton
material Thus far, it is stated, the
bleaching compounds have consisted of hot
solutions Of bisulphate Of soda and chic
ride of lime. After bleaching the subdued
pulp the cellulose Is treated with com
pound of chloride Of zinc, castor oil and
gelatin, resulting in the formation of a
paste which is reduced to strands and rub
bed into threads.
Under the naked eye tho pulp thread Is
said TO differ very little In appearance from
the real cotton, ,possessespractically all the
features of a pure cotton thread and Is
white and soft, but when compared be-
meath strong microscope q difference is
noticed. the fine, fuzzy and loose flbers SC
prominent In cotton threads being miss
ing in the pulp sort, though not to the dis
advantage of the latter. The peculiar
twist character of cotton thread Is also ab.
sent in the pulp strand, while the latter
seems harder and smoother under the glass.

which have their bodies entirely covered
with hair Of varying lengths Is tho so

The whole Aino population, according to
the very latest Japanese census, Is composed
of about IS, 600 people, less than half of
whom are pure bred. They are dwarfs in
stature, the average man measuring olly
about 4 feet 9inches and the woman about
feet 2 inches. Their heads are small and
slope sharply backward. They have very
large mouths and thick full lips. The mp

Yourself a Sportsman.
At last we have reached that gallant fell
low, the mountain sheep, or bighorn. A
true cliff dweller is he Born under the
shelving rocks of beetling cliff, some
times actually graded in the snow, and
reared in the stormy atmosphere OF high
attitudes, he is typical mountaineer.
Wherever you find him at home, depend
upon it that you will also find the finest
scenery of the district.
This animal loves a birdseye view OF
a mountain landscape as well as does any
member of the geological survey. steep
descent, with a narrow, level valley and
threadlike river spread like a relief map
5000 feet before him is his delight. In
former times he was venturesome and Of
ten wandered miles away from his noun
tain home to explore tempting tracts of
bad lands, and being unmolested he some
times took up permanent residence In
such places. But the venturesome inhab-
itants of low, isolated mountains and shell
terless bad lands have paid with their lives
for their pioneering and now mountain
sheep is rarely found elsewhere than amid
mountains worthy the name.

That particular mountain sheep stood

He was feet 10 inches In length of head

fell dead on a foot Of snow in the head OF
rock walled gulch, and, oh, boys how
fine he was! Up in the mountain park he
had been paving through the snow to get
at the spears of dry grass that were there
ohtainable, and in spite Of the difficulty of
the process and the pitiful scantiness of

EARLY PERFUMES.
The Crusaders Brought Them to Western
Eusope From the Holy Land.

During the dark ages and In early me-
dipval times perfumes with the exception
of incense for ecclesiastical use were al
most unknown, and the rude Saxon thames
and Norman barons and their Spouses were
quite content with the smell Of wood fires
and huge masses of roast or sccthcd meat
and were not at all solicitous to enjoy the
pleasure Of sweet odors. 1t seems to have
been the crusaders who brought from the
Holy Land into western Europe tho per-
fumes for which the east has from time
inmemorinl been renowned. The original
home of perfumes was either China or
Egypt. In the last named country the
priests of the temple of IIeliopolis used to
offer every day to their divinity three
kinds of perfumes, one in the morning,
one at noon and the third at night, the
last being scent composed of 16 ingrcdi-
ents, forming an ensemble called kaphi.

Greece is known to every one VITO remem-
bers the delightful descriptions of the per
fumed baths Of Roman ladies in Bulwer's

the use of pcrfumery spread to Rome,
where, under the empire, almost every OBJ
ject was scented.

of the Greek empire the Byzantine Greeks
found that their Turkish conqucrors were
as passionately fond of perfumcry as they
themselves were.

Lewiston Journal: One of Lewiston S
lumbermen say, "The question of preserv-
ing our forests from destructive fires is
one that can not be pressed too heavily
upon the attention of the public, since it
touches everyone. Our forests are none
too large for our future needs. One rides
up the Sandy River road on the Grand
Trunk and sees woods on every side, and
he says Pooh, plenty of lumberp But
not so! This is most of it second growth
not yet big enough to cut or in inacces-
sible places. 1t is time that the govern
ment at Washington was taking hold Of
the question. In this country forest pro-
perty that has taken from 100 to 200 years
to make merchantable is sacrificed at the
rate of S25, 900, 900 year. The cause and
the remedy are serious problems Care
lcssness of clearing lands, escape of loco
motive sparks, burning over marshy
lands, careless ness with matches and gun
in the woods, all tend to the cause of great
forest fires. They will begin to break out
in our woods next month. Whether
started by accident, carelessness, or evil
intent, the spread of many fires might be
stopped by systematic guarding of our
forests. Spark arresters upon our locomo-
tivcs, on-combustble gun wads, common
prudence on the part of individuals. and
vigilance such as is exercised In Europe
would make our loss much less.
A few years ago a spring of peculiar
qualities was found on the farm of Jesse
Priest of Northport and scientist was
called to examine the water and declared
1t a valuable mineral water possessing the
usual qualities of mineral water Mr..
Priest built a road to the spring and trim
med up the underbrush, and built water
troughs to lead the water from the spring
and each year as campmeeting came
around he hauled a number of large hogs
heads of water to the grounds, which he
sold at one cent per glass or In other ways
advertising his water. About three years
ago three gentlemen from Philadelphia,
who are respectively Warren A. Reed,
Frazer L. Bilycu, VIM. H. Folwell on
visit to the spring was so delighted with
the qualities of the water that they
formed company and bought the land
and spring of Mr.. Priest who sold it to
them at reasonable sum. For the past
two years nothing has been done there but
about one week ago VIM. H. Fo!well of
Philadelphia, one of the proprictors, bet
tied and shipped from the spring $50 cases
containing 400 two quart bottles max
ing in all $500 quarts of mineral water to
Philadelphia, Penn. Mr.. Folwell will, it
is understood, advertise the water In
Pennsylvania and will soon send another
lot to the same state.

FOUR HUNDRED BELOW ZERO.
Curious Effects of Such Extreme Temper
ature ON Iron and Colors.

Four hundred and twenty-four degrees
F. below zero! Just what this means it is
almost impossible to imagine, and yet 1t is
ono of the temperatures which have been
reached and used in laboratory research,
and has becn made the subject of some
highly interesting experiments and expla-
nations by Professor Dcwar before the
British Royal Institution.
Four hundred degrees below zero is not
an every day temperature, nor can it be
reached by more everyday means than the
expansion of liquid air. which latter Pro-
fossor Dewar has succeeded in producing
In comparatively large quantities. and in
storing by novel and ingenious methods,
to be used as required in the study of mat
ter at nhnormally low temperature, exactly
as spirit lamp or Bunscn burner is
used in studyingthc properties of different
bodies at the higher temperatures.
Tho tensile strength of iron at 400 below
zero is just twice what it is at 60 above.
Il will take strain of 60 instead of 30
tons to the square inch, and equally curl
Gus results have come out as to the elonga-
ton of metals under these conditions. 1t
was an idea If Faraday that the magnet
ism in a permanent magnet would be in
creased at very low temperatures, and OK
perimcnts with comparatively low temper
atures had rather negativod Faraday S sug
gcstion, but Professor Dewar has COM
plctely verified the opinion of the famous
savant, having shown that mangot at
the extremely low temperature made pos
sible by the liquid air had its power in
creased by about so per cent.
Very low temperature was shown also to
have a remarkable effect upon the color of
many bodies. For example, the brilliant
scarlet of vermilion and mcrcuric iodide Is
reduced under its influence to pale or
angc, the original color returning with
the rise of the temperature. Blues, on the
other hand, are unaffected by cold, and
tho effect is comparatively small upon or
ganic coloring in matters Of all tints.-

The Element Arqun.

DR.. J. P. Stoddard, writing in the
Popular Science Monthly, says that the
discovery Of the element argon may we'll
be called the triumph of the last place Of
decimals-the result of work so exact that
the worker knew that the small differcn-
ces in the figures he obtained must be due
to the presence of an unknown substance
rather than to an error in his computa-
tions. The prediction based on this obser.
walton, the search for the disturbing
element, and It's discovery, form an
achievement which, in the history Of
science, has perhaps only been equalled by
the prediction of Neptune by Adams and
Levericr simultaneously in England and
France, and it's subsequent discovery by
Gale In Germany. The principal ele
ments have long been known to the
chemists and those of recent discovery,
before argon, have all been metals which
occur in minute quantities In rare miner
ais No non metallic element had been
discovered for nearly seventy years, and
the existence of another element belong
ing to this group did not seem probable.
Still less likely was it that such an ele
ment could be present In the atmosphere.
But 1t was there-inert, apparently idle,
and waiting to be discovered Now that
Vt is discovered, naturally practical men
raise the question what 1t is good for, and
that Is what the scientists are trying to
find out. DR.. Stoddard evidently be-
30 decidedly premature to conclude that
because 1t is seemingly inactive 1t may
not form compounds under conditions yet
Intred, because unthought of. Among
rther suggestions, Professor Robert Austin
mas ventured the guess that it may play a
Jart In metallurgical operations in which
,ir Is largely employed. In making Bes-
,cmer steel, for example, not less than
100, 900 cubic feet of air are blown through
zach charge of metal to remove the car
bon, silicon, phosphorus and other i'm
purities In this amount of air there
must be at least 1909 cubic feet of argon
Professor Roberts-Austen has discovered
w experiment that the nitrogen which
;an be pumped out Of Bessemer blown
metal and which is twice the volume of
the metal, contains little or no argon, and
the question arises whether the argon may
not have united with the iron and con
ferred upon Bessemer steel some of the
properties that distinguished 1t from other
steel Still another suggestion Is made
that it may yet be found that argon is in
some way taken up by plants and contri-
butes in an important manner to their
uourishment and growth, although the
attempt to extract argon from vegetable
and animal substances have thus far
yielded negative results. At all events
there Is enough of uncertainty about the
newly dis covered and mysterious elc-
ment to hold the interest OF scientists for a
long time to come, and there may be uses
30 which 1t can be applied that will be of
great value to mankind--and that is the
practical test which man long ago learned
TO make in determining what every new
discovery was worth to him.
