When We think Of all the beauty
which human eyes seldom behold, but
see only often enough to know OF It's
existence.we gain a new thought. Many
a brilliant sunset occurs in the far
oceans where no ships sail. Many a
wonderfully colored flower blooms In
the jungle where no human foot has
penetrated. Many a striking effect OF
light and shade. or tender glow Of
semi-twilight. or strange picturesque

in the remote arctic regions. II what

are many forms Of beauty here upon
our earth of which We. its inhabitants.

Men prominent in shoe manufa,

Men prominent in shoe manufac-
turing in Lynn, Mass, believe that
that industry needs for its. profitable
continuance a trade training school.
It is as essential to their business,
they say, as is the textile school to the
distinctive industry in Lowell. The
difficulty to be met is that of main
tanning supply of trained workmen.
Because OF the tyranny of the trades
unions, only the families of members
of the unions can learn the lasting or
cutting trade. A young man cannot
learn the branches Of the trade in
Lynn unless his father teaches him.
Otherwise if he wishes to learn the
trade, he must go out of Lynn, or
earn a commitment to the State prison.
In the latter institution he is imper-
fectly taught, and if he learns the
trade thoroughly elsewhere, he is apt
to remain where he served his ap-
premiership. In either event the
Lynn industry suffers, as the manu-
facturers lose large amounts every
year through the poor work of lasters
or cutters who profess to know the
trade, but have not sufficiently mas
tered it. The manufacturers of the
city have promised their support to
the movement of opening a trade
school, and the project will probably
be brought to the attention of the City
Coapsil ct an early date. ~~~-A~

arc to be armed each with sixteen

Some of the manufacturers of glu-
cose in Chicago have turned their at
tention to the production of corn oil
an article extracted by pressure from
the, germ of the grain by a method
similar to that used in the manufac-
ture Of inseed oil, leaving a residuum
not unlike in its character the oil cake
of commerce. It seems that in the
production of glucose, it was a matter
of necessity first to extract the germ,
this, for long time, involving a
waste. AS against this, a company
now turns ont some $50 barrels of corn
oil per day. Most of the oil goes to
England for soapmaking. 1t is
shipped in secondhand oil barrels,
eaoh of a weight, when filed, of 400
pounds, rated at the factory at three
cents per pound. Some of the oil is
used in this country principally in
mixing cheap paint and for adulterat-
ing linseed oil. 1t is regarded as a
rapid "drying" oil.
