TIE TEST E SATISFACTORY Another Run of Steel by the Hawkins Process. LEADING IRON MEN PRESENT Now the Birmingham Rolling Mills Will Take
 Up the Product The Outlook Is
 Very Encouraging.

Another test of steel making under the Hawkins process was made last night at North Birmingham. The result Is report- ed as altogether satisfactory.
 It will be remembered by the readers of the State Herald that this process of making soft steel was first tested at Hammond, Ind, several months ago.
 The Messrs. Enslen of this city became interested in the matter and induced MT. Hawkins to come to Birmingham, saying they would organize a company and put up a fifty-ton plant. MT. Haw- kins accepted the proposition, the com pany was formed the furnace built and the first attempt at steel making under the new process was made last Saturday. on account of deficiency in the furnace the result of the first run was not satis- factory. The second run was better and last night another run was made. Among those present was a representative of the Birmingham Rolling mills, who makes a favorable report.
 By this process the iron produced in this section can be converted into good quality of merchantabe steel at one-half the cost of any other process.
 Leading iron men were al the run last night from Anuiston and other sections of the south. A leading metalogist from Chicago was also present for the purpose of giving the process a personal investi- gation and reporting to capitalists and iron men of that city, who are interested.
 The Birmingham Rolling mills have ar ranged to roll steel and will take a large portion of the output.
 Considerable interest is manifested here on account of the increased local demand for iron, which will result from the building of 500-ton steel plant now contemplated by Chicago parties.

A woMAN's INVENTION.

Miss Jennie Wertheimer, Of Cincin-
nstl, has accomplished what no man
has ever been able to do. She has
invented a perfect safeguard against
Check-raising. Man thought he had
done it when he invented the perfor-
ating machine, but Mr.. Carl Becker,
of Brooklyn, distinguished criminal
now behind the bars, discovered how
to fill up the little holes. Miss Wer-
theimer's scheme is the use Of the
Cryptogram. The bank has general
code susceptible of about a million
variations, each variation giving a
different character, or set of charac.
ters, for any given sum. The bank
has its code mounted on a series of
wheels, which permit of as many
combinations as it has customers.
The customer, in one corner of his
check, instead of the amount drawn,
writes the number of the combination
and the code signal he is employing.

aERMANY's ATTITUDE TOWARD WOMEN
One OF the most conservative coun.
tries in the world in it's attitude TO-
ward the public activities Of women
10 Germany. The Kaiser once de.
clared that the true province OF
women is expressed IN words begin
ming with three KS, Kuche, Kirche,
und Kinder, meaning in English,
kitchen, church, and children. THIS
reflected very fairly the sentiment Of
the German people. But now even
Germany has been affected by the
great broadening OF womsn's sphere.
While women in Germany have as
yet little chance 70 become useful in
any but purely domestic life, a cru
SADIE has been commenced with aims
to gain for women opportunity to be
useful in the community at large in
such manner and for such purposes
as her nature and disposition adapt
her. The demand is made that in
these spheres she be permitted to act
with the same independence and re-
sponsibility as do men. 1t is asked
that women be given appointments in
the management Of the poor and I'M
fortunate, and OF public schools. 1t
will be noticed that these demands
are very moderate in comparison to
what women are claiming in some
other countries Of the world. But so
conservative is Germany that it has
been a matter of surprise that, mild
as they are, they have been received
with the approval and applause that
has been meted out to them. Ger
mans change Of attitude toward
women is significant because it indi-
Gates the breaking down of the con-
which which would fsin
limit woman's activities to the home,
regardless Of the great number of
women who have no opportunities to
be home-makers or who can be more
useful In other spheres. -ET.

CULTURE ON THE FARM.
BY BEA.
How can I, busy woman living on
farm, with little money for books or
travel, attain culture as il IS known in
cities7 Is it possible for farmers and
farmers wives to become cultured, fsl
as they are removed from the City's
advantagesW
This was the question asked me a
few days ago by an ambitious woman,
who, while not rebelling against her
farm surroundings, is evidently long
ing for broader outlook. And I
was glad to tell her that / believe il
possible for any woman who will
strive after it, to attain good degree
of culture, degree that shall render
her in measure independent OF her
environment.
What is cultureY Rev. Fl. Heber
Newton answers that question by say
ing: Anything that lifts US out Of
ourselves and takes US into the broad
and breezy commons Of literature and
art and gives us wider and nobler
thought, Is culture" No person who
is content to limit his view to the init.
mate happenings Of every day life,
the small affairs Of her own home, the
gossip Of her neighbors, can claim to
be cultured.
For myself, I have often stood
amazed at the breadth of knowledge
and depth Of attainment of some
quiet little body who has had few 30
called social advantages, but who has
read and thought and observed and
grown cultured and refined in 90 do
ing. l am not afraid to say l have
often felt my own ignorance of
themes on which such student is
we'll informed. That is true culture
the enlargement of the mental hor-
icon, the look far afeld.
Seems to me a farmers wife can &C.
cure this as we'll as the townswomsn.
True, she hasn't the opportunities,
but alas, the city woman has the
chances and doesn't improve them.
The country woman has time that the
CITY lady spends in calls and in keep
ing up with the changes of modes
made needful by her position. No
one knows how much precious time
is wasted for those who have an am
bition for self improvement by those
who have not.
Culture is of the mind and the in
telligence. 1t strikes deep root into
the nature; it goes to the heart of
things. 1t is often manifested in
gentle and refined manners, for Gull
ture should teach us broad and
liberal views of life and people and
such views tend to a charitable
breadth Of mind, and cosmopolitan
politeness that becomes natural be-
cause 1t is instinctive-part of the in.
