UTILIZATION OF WASTES.
Al Example of the Progress Made IL
shown by What Is Made of Coal Tar.

II
shown by What Is Made Of Coal Tar.
Perhaps there is no stronger evidence of
the advance of civilization than the in
creasing tendency maDifesting itself in al
most all directions toward the utilization
Of waste products.
The immediate incentive TO this, of
course is the simple incentive which lies
behind all commercial projects-the desire
for the emoluments of trade, but it is the
increasing ability to turn to commercial
account those products which. before were
worse than a mere waste, in that their
disposal was o source of expense, that Is
the index of civilizations advance just
mentioned.
No bettor example of this can be cited
perhaps than the utilization of the waste
products in the manufacture of coal gas
Take single one of these. coal tar, for
example, which, by the way, is n very
complex and uninviting substance. 1t has
given us one of the best antiseptics known
TO science in the shape OF carbolic acid,
one of the most violent explosives used IN
warfare-picrate of potash; whole series
of colors and dyes, the anilines, rivaling
in brilliancy and splendor the colors oil
the rainbow, and these have not only given
rise to new industries of great magnitude,
but have revolutionized others Of vastly
greater extent; many of the most deli
cious of our so called fruit fiavoring ex-
tracts; saccharine, substance $50 times
as sweet us tho purest cane sugar, and
last, but not least, series OF medicinal
preparations of the greatest value to sur
fering humanity, of which antipyrine, an,
tifebrine and sulphonal are names that
will be familiar to all.
While this is not 1.-THE of the blessings
which science has succeeded in wrestling
from that dirty and i'll smelling refuse,
coal tar, it may serve, in way, to indi.
cate how little we can afford to regard
anything as useless simply because we
have as vet found no way to make use OF
it, or because it is so i'll smelling and OBJ
noxious as to constitute it nuisance
which the authorities require the producer
to abate.-N. w. Perry in Cassier's Maya
zine For December.

AT A LONDON THEATER.
English Women az n Race Are the Worst
Dressed Women In the World.

Lillian Bell, who is writing from Lon
don to The Ladies' Home Journal, gives
some remarkably interesting descriptions
Of the Britishers in the December number.
Here, for instance, is the way she pictures
an audience Mt London thcater: 1.-THE
play was most amusing yet my sister and
l couldn't help watching the audience.
Such a bored looking set, the women with
frizzled hair held down by invisible nets,
mingliDg with their eyebrows and done
hideously in the back; low nccked
gowns, exhibiting the most beautiful
shoulders in the world; gorgeous jewels
I'm their hair and cleaning all over their
bodices, but among half dozen emerald
turquoise and diamond bracelets there
would appear n silver watch bracelet
which cost not over $40 and spoiled the
effect Of all the others
"English women as n race are the worst
dressed women in the world. saw thou
sands of them in Piocadilly and Regent
street and 1T church parade In the park
with high French beeied slippers over
colored stockings. And, as to sizes,
should cay mines were the average. There
are some smaller, but the most are larger.
1.-THE Prince of Wales was in tho box
Opposite to ours, and when we were not
looking at him we gazed at the impressive
faces of the audience They never smiled.
They never laughed. The subtlest points
i'm the play went unnoticed, vet 1t Is one
which has had n record run and bids fur

An atmosphere can be as historical as
an occurrence says raul Leicester Ford
in December Atlantic, and created char
acter can transmit n trutr sense of gen
Grafton than the most labored biography
of some actual person. II is scarcely pcs
sible TO obtain n more vivid idea Of the
eighteenth century life and people than is
TO he found in Fielding's Tom Jones. and
In this sense il is the best OF historical flc-
ton. In tbs three volumes Of the Little
gage manuscripts Cooper took rs his cen
trail theme the history Of the great land
grants Of New York. "Satanstoe" relates
the motives of state which induced the
granting of the patents, the means taken to
secure them and finally the struggle with
the Indians for their possession. THE
Chainbearer' carries the history one point
further by showing the method of settling
Of these land grants and tells of the strug-
gle for possession between the owner and
the squatters, and finally the third Of the So
ries, ''The Redskins. deals with the ferco
'antirent' war which broke out on the
same estates some so years later. 1t Is
apparent, therefore, that these three books
