Call Them Wheelwaxs.

There is need of good word for des-
ignating road from place to place ex-
clusively for bicycles Bicycle path is
the term commonly used. There are sew
eral reasons why this is not suitable
term.
In the first place, the word path prob
ably is derived from the Greek verb pa
tein Ito walk), and means footway.
Secondly, the expression is too long; it
has four syllables. Thirdly, it is clumsy /;
it has two accents Fourthly, it is not
euphonic.
Instead of bicycle path The Compan-
ion respectfully suggests wheelway.
This word is analogous in its formation
to driveway. The word has not been
used in any other sense except by one or
two writers incorrectly to designate
those parts of wagon road in which
the wheels run Way means the entire
road, and not some part of it Wheel
way is better than wheel road for the
same reason that driveway is better than
drive road. 1t suggests recreation before
utility. Youths Companion.

Powdered FIuor Spar Helps X Ravs.

Professor Winkclmann and DR.. Straubel
of the University of Jena have succeeded
in discovering a new method of photo
graphing with Roentgen rays by which
the length Of exposure is reduced from 10
to 10 minutes to only few seconds The
method is based on a conversion of the Y
rays into rays of other undulations by
means Of fluor spar crystal. If the Roent-
gen rays are allowed to fall upon a photo
graphic plate, the sensitized film of which
is turned away from them and covered
with nuor spar, the rays, after passing the
film, will be absorbed by the fluor spar
and there undergo the modification spoken
OF. The new rays now act upon the pho
tographic plate, and indeed much more
strongly than did the Roentgen rays on
passing through. AS large fluor spar
plates are to be Ind with difficulty powder
OF the same crystal was tried in their place,
and as this succeeded nothing stands in
the way Of the further application of the
method. The new rays emitted by the
nuor spar were infinitely examined by the
discoveries. They succeeded in determin-
ing the tranquility, and from this the
length Of the undulations. The rays lie
far beyond the ultra violet end OF the visi-
bic spectrum. -London News.

THE MAKING OF PENS.
More Steel Used For Them Than Fo,
Guns, Swords and Needles


"Do you know anything about pons?"
asked u Nassau street stationer the Other
morning. Il thought you didn't. Now,
let mo tell you something about tho mo-
tallic pen that you never dreamed of 1t
requires tho finest kind of steel to make
really first class pen. l have been over
hauling records and find that a greater
quantity of steel is used annually in tho
penmaking business than in all the gun
sword and needle manufactures of the
world. Tho recent popularity of the type
writer has, of course diminished the use
of pens, but the output is enormous never
theless.
In Birmingham, England, there are Ii
number Of pen manufactures that turn
out total Of $50, 600, 600 pens every work
ing week. Tho majority of tho workers
are women, and the wages while low help
to make Birmingham q notable seat Of in
dustry. To make 900, 900 pens a full ton
of steel is required. There is really so
much work about the manufacture of
pen that 1t Is surprising that they sell us
cheap as they do, but, as I have said, the
production is so great that 1t is profitable
business Pens have been in use whole
century now, but 40 years ago, when they
took the place of quilts as the popular ink
spreader, it was one Of the secrets of the
age how that slit was made in tho pen.
Those employed in that particular branch
Of the work were obliged to record an oath
that they would not reveal the secret of
that slit cutting process.
1.-The secret became an open one though,
in the natural course of events, and soon
almost every interested person knew that
the slit was made with pair of scissors
fixed in press. Men perform the initial
work on pen. That is to say, they roll
out the steel to the proper thickness The
women then take hold, cutting the steel
into strips as wide rs two pens are long.
Presses do the cutting for the women.
The steel when it leaves the presses is
shaped like Il pen, but is fiat. The forms
made by these presses are then put into u
red hot furnace, and when thoroughly
heated ore taken out and permitted to cool
slowly. This process makes them soft.
Then the women use fast presses that ham
mer the points as we'll as stamp tho name
of the manufacturer.
This done, the pens are heated again.
and, while still hot, are cast into OIL They
are much harder, but dirty and greasy
when taken out. To clean and whiten
they they are then boiled in water to which
soda has been added. The next step is to
place them in cylinder which revolves
over gas jets. This turns them blue A
number Of other minor details, and the
pen is packed and ready for the market.
Whether it be the rich or the poor mans
pen, the mode of manufacture is alike. -

EXERCISES FOR THE THROAT.
A Branch OF Physical Culture Not Ofton
Touched On.


The chronic sore throat Is not infre-
quently produced by the misuse of the
vocal organs. Very often that unruly
little member, the tongue, is accounta-
BILE for the difficulty, rs it is for great
many other troubles in this transitory
life. Many people have habit when
talking of pushing the tongue so far
back against the delicate membranes
that line the throat that irritation more
or less painful is caused, and if it con-
tinues any length Of time ulcers will
form, aud so will DOCTORS bill.
Control of the tongue is excellent in
all senses of the word. Physically this
organ may be managed by depressing it
into hollow Mt point three-Quarters
Of an inch back of where the tip of it
comes when in natural position in the
mouth and at the same time singing
very light head tones This exercise
requires some patience Mt first, but the
habit of keeping the tongue down is
soon acquired. In speaking or singing
it should not be allowed to hoop up and
fill the mouth, thus interfering with
tho free passage of the tones of the voice
from the throat to the front of the
mouth, where they should strike and
then escape clear rs bell. This hoop
ing up of the tongue in the mouth is the
cause of much Of the indistinct and
slovenly utterances to which we are too
often obliged TO listen.
In many people we notice the line
from the point Of the chin to the neck
is in the form Of u right anglo. In u
shapely throat this line forms curve
just as canary's does when the small
yellow artist is warbling his carols.
To develop the throat and mako this
anglo curve, stand before mirror so
that you may watch the throat swell
out. Now thrust your tongue out as far
rs it will go, then draw it back quickly
and forcibly, at the same time bringing
it downward III tho mouth Us far as you
can. Place your thumb and forchngcr
against the larynx Commonly called

the larynx pass downward For a week
or two make the movements lightly.
After that time put as much force into it
as you can The exercise should be

To fill up the hollows of the neck,
stand correctly. and then slowly fill the
lungs with air without elevating your

my supreme ambition that he should be-

in that direction it would probably dam

The easy acquisition of it is knack 1t
involves the condensation of interest
and faculty along particular line, and
that narrow line. There is nothing to

implies the contrary. And shrcwdness
has more than anything else to do with

There are II great many things that
can be best done by the man who does
not know too much, or, at least, by the
man whose intelligence is concentrated
at single point or along single line.
The mechanic who has come to be

preparatory training cost about sevea

hopes to do large, solid work in the
world, work in which intelligence of
