Special preparations have been made
by the Butte Optical Co., Owsley block.
for complete diagnosis of defective
eyesight, and their labor is now recelv-
ing it's regard. The new method of
testing eyes by the dark room is a com
plete success, and several persons
whose conditions have been considered
hopeless have almost wept with joy
from the. improvement made in their
vision. The change was from darkness
to light and from pain to pleasure. 1t
is only such individuals that can fully
appreciate the fruits of science and re-
search which are so rapidly elevating
the mind and heart Of the world into
brighter and happier realms.

Chalk From England.

One Of the most important of the
few British products at present largely
used in this country is chalk. 1t comes
from the banks Of the river Thames,
and between 175,OOO and 10000 bar
rels of the material are consumed in
the United States annually. In its
crude form remarkable flint fossils are
sometimes found, usually the remains
of fish. The process of manufact ure
from the natural state to that Of a
form when it can be utilized for COM
mercial purposes is simple. When re-
ceived at the English mill, the chalk
is put into great machines and ground
in water. 1t is then foated off into
watts of clear water. where all the i'm
purities and foreign substances are
precipitated, the water being after
ward drawn off by a series of filtering
operations and the soft residuum dried
by steam heat and exposure to the air.
The substance is then reduced to a
powder of different degrees of fneness
by grinding in bur mill and boiling,
when it is ready to be packed in bar
rels and shipped for use.-New York
Mail and Express.

DR.. Waetzold, says LIE Journal Oily
giene, thinks that the chloroses and
neuroses from which so many young
girls suffer may be largely attributed
to the abuse of the piano. 1t is neces-
sary, says the author, to abandon the
deadly habit of compelling young girls
to hammer on the keyboard before
they are Is or 16 years of age. Even
at this age the exercise should be per-
mitted only to those who are really
talented and are possessed of robust
temperament. DR.. Waetzold shows
that out of 1000 young girls studying
the piano before the age of - years
600 We're afflicted with nervous trou-
bles later on, while the number hav-
ing affections of this kind was only
200 for those at later age, and only
100 were affected among those who
had never touched the instrument. The
study of the violin produces even more
disastrous results than those attribut-
ed to the piano.

An officer Of liner once remarked
that most men seem to be as ignorant
about the size of the sea as they are
of the distance between the heavenly
planets. Here are a few facts: The
Pacific covers 6S,OOO,OOO square miles;
the Atlantic 100000 and the Indian
ocean, Arctic and Antarctic 42,0OO,-
900. To stow away the contents of the
Pacific it would be necessary to fill a
tank one mile long, one mile wide and
one mile deep every day for 40 years.
Put in figures the Pacific holds in
weight 9S4,OOO, OOO, 900 900, 600, 900 TONS
The Atlantic averages a depth of not
quite three miles. Its waters weigh
S25, 600, OO0, OOO, 100000 tons, and n
tank to contain it would have each Of
its sides 43O miles long. The figures
of the other oceans are in the same
startling proportions.-New York

NEW SMOkELESS POWDER.
1t Can BE Stored Under Water With
Safety Until Used.

Safety Until Used.
| Ansil Moffatt, who is well known
among his friends as a genius in the
direction of chemistry, has perfected
new smokeless powder, the secret of
which he and his friend, ]. Richard
Francis, have kept quiet for long
time. For nearly four years Mr.. Moi
fatt, says the Indianapolis Journal, has
worked in his laboratory and in the
field with the new explosive, and as
result of the outcome as well as the
tests made according to the govern
ment regulations n company was in
corporated with a capital stock of
$15O,OOO.
Ansil Moffatt, inventor of the new
explosive, said of it: 81 have conf
dence in it's immediate success. Its
chief characteristics are safety of man
ufacture and use. All the extreme
dangers Of powder are eliminated by
this process, and explosions of powder
will be a thing of the past. 1t is
wet process. and the finished powder
may be stored in water indefinitely
without deterioration. 1t has stood all
of the usual government tests. 1t
makes the least smoke of all the
SmOkeleSS powders.
by comparative tests it shows won
derful projectile power, yet, owing to
it's peculiar nature, it may be used in
q shotgun with the same safety as
black powder. Less than one-ha1f the
quantity in weight is necessary for
load. One feature is that it can be
used in all the old style gun shells.
Our explosive will start a new era in
mining. When exploded in mine, it
leaves so little smoke and absolutely
no poisonous fumes that the miner is
enabled to Immediately resume work.
Thus from 10 to 20 per cent of min
ing time will be saved.
"'AZo,' the name of this new pow
der, contains no nitroglycerin, as dy-
Mantle does. In using dynamite the
greater number of accidents occur in
warming or thrawing it out. 'Azo' eX-
plodes frozen as well as warm. AL
though 'azo' contains no nitroglycerin,
if, for any other purpose, an explosive
of extreme violence is necessary. we
can run it up to a power % per cent
greater than that of pure nitroglycerin.
The mining interests of the west will
be supplied from factories located at
convenient places"

Glass Industry In Indiana.

A summary of the glass industry of
the nation for the last working year

made another wonderful gain, outstrip-
ping Pennsylvania in window glass
productive facilities and standing her

center in the entire world. The sum-
