CUTTING WITH RED HOT TOOLS.
Economies Resulting From New Hard
enlng Process.

Economies Resulting From New Hard
enlng Process.
If a machine of any kind can be
made to do twice as much work as
before, or more than twice as much,
the capacity of the shop will be en-
larged. without adding to the struc-
ture itself, or putting in any new ap-
paratus. And that is what has
recently been accomplished at the
works of the Bethlehem Penn.) Steel
Company. a large part of the install.
lation there consists of lathes. When
Il lathe is used to reduce the dimen.
sions OF mass OF steel Qike a steam
ship shaft very hard tools must be
employed, and they can cut only to a
certain depth without overheating.
Overheating, it is needless to say,
usually ruins any steel tool.
But, as the result of recent in
vention, it has been made possible to
work the lathes at Bethlehem as never
before. The cut has been deepened,
on the average, 80 per cent, the feed
Tor sideways travel of the tool has
been increased "a per cent, and the
cutting speed, or rotational speed of
the object in the lathe, has been raised
1873 per cent. 1t is estimated that the
amount of material cut away, in turn.
ing, averages 1873 pounds an hour.
where formerly it was only 31.1S.
Here is an apparent gain of $40 per
cent. in the efficiency of the machines.
This wonderful change results from
the invention of a process of harden
ing the steel of which the tools are
composed. +. w. Taylor and Maunsel
White originated it. The means en-
ployed in it are still n secret. But the
effects are certainly very clear. Re-
ferring to this matter, Cassier's Maga-
zine says:
The underlying value of the Taylor
White process is that it gives to the
steel the exceptional property Of re-
tanning Il high degree of hardness,
even when heated to a visible red
heat, and it is thus possible with one
of these tools to cut steel at n speed
so great as to heat up the point OF the
tool to redness and have it continue
to cut for several minutes at this speed
and still leave Il comparatively smooth
finish on the work. But cutting metal
in Il lathe with a tool at red heat is
something which the sceptic must see
in order to believe. Opportunity for
this, however, has been given, and is
daily available, at the Bethlehem
works.

Water For washing wooiens.

Many people sincerely believe that
it is impossible to wash all-wool un-
dergarments without their shrinking.
This is a popular error. With an
abundance of soft water. keeping
every water through which the fan.
nels pass at the same temperature,
with pure white soap and careful dry
ing, there need be no shrinkage. To
soften the hard water obtained from
the rivers and springs from which
most cities get their water supply use
a tablespoonful of household ammo
mia to a gallon of water If the wa
ter is exceptionally hard more ammo
mia will be required. Having ready
the softened water heat as hot as the
hand can bear comfortably and pour
into two tubs. Make one with strong
soapsuds, using boraX soap--neveI

Poison from the bite of copperhcad
is deadly. The smallest quantity of
the poison produces a local irritation.
In serious cases the whole mass of the
blood is infected in the course of a
few seconds or minutes, according to
the severity of the case. The poison
produces paralysis of the nerve cen
tres, and when it is once carried
through the system death is certain.
No antidote is known capable of
counteracting or Geutralizing the
action of copperhead poison. Fayrer
has demonstrated that injections of
ammonia or liquid permarganate Of
potassium are useless after the poison
has entered the system. In solution,
however, permanganate of potassium
destroys the deadly properties of the
poison.
Gunther. in his Reptiles OF British
India" has suggested mechanical
means for preventing the poison from
entering the yStem. Circulation, if
possible, should be cut off, by binding
the injured extremity above the bite.
The wound should be enlarged by deep
incisions, or should be cut entirely
off. The poisoned blood should then,
so far as possible, be sucked from the
wound. The wound should be cauter-
lied or rubbed either with ammonia
or permanganate Of potassium. Stimu-
lants should be taken freely at short
intervals, in order to strengthen the
action of the heart.

Russia's Advance on china.

For nearly 80 years the boundary be
tween China and Russia remained as
agreed Upon in the treaties OF 1858 and
1860, But already the commercial and
political activity Of the Russians was
overstcpping it. They had established
themselves in large numbers in the
cities OF Chinese Manchuria--in Kiakh-
ia, Mukdcn, Kirin and Tsitsihar, the
residence OF the Mandarin Governor.
The navigation OF the OSsuri and the
Sungari rivers fell wholly into their
hands. The steamships OF the Amur
Company put Russia in rapid commun-
ication with Japan and San Francisco.
Scientific Missions traversed China
in all directions. AT Peking the Rus
san colony acquired continually great
or importance and the ambassador Of
the czar welded moro influence at court

it may be to confess it, these downtown
streets are fascinating enough for what
they are to-day, even if they had no

ing; and these erect, jubilant young
buildings, whether beautiful or not,
seem quite interesting-from their
bright tops, where, far above the tur-
moil and confusion, Mrs. Janitor sits
sewing in the sun while the children
play hideand-seek behind water-butts
and air-shafts (there is no danger of
falling off, it is relief to know, because
the roof is walled in like gardcn)

Deep down. so or 40 feet under the
crowded sidewalk, the stollers shovel
coal under the big boilers all day, and
electricians do interesting tricks with
switchboards, somewhat as in the hold
OF a modern battlcship. In the many
tiers OF floors overhead are the men
with the minds that make these high
buildings necessary and make downtown
what it is, with their dreams and
schemes, their courage and imagination,
their trust and distrust in the knowledge
and ignorance of other human beings,
which are means by which they bring
about great successes and great fail
ures, and have all the fun of playing a
game, with the peace OF conscience and
Self-satisiaction which come from hard
work and manly sweat.

To Acquire Japanese.

many as the European student can
manage to assimilate. a knowledge
Of the telegraph is, however, not
sufficient. They more often represent
'vocables rather than words, and two
monosyllabic vocables are joined to
form the jukuji, or compounds, Of the
usual written style and of common
speech, and very often the meaning of
the compound can scarcely be guessed
from the meaning of the components-
Nor is this the only difficulty. Most
ideographs may be pronounced in two
ways at least; thus we have "mei'' or
"myo," "sel' or sal" lin" or min

Transvaal Loss Of Life.

Moralists are discussing the terrible
loss Of life brought about by the Trans
vaal war. Yet here life is sacrificed for
a purpose-for an honest principle. 1t
were better to preach against the need
less sacrifice of life. Thousands OF peo-
pie succumb to ailments which might
easily have been checked in the begin
ming. Dyspepsia carries off more peo-
pie than are killed in war. The use of
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters would save
many lives. Constipation may seem a
little thing, but it invariably develops
into something worse, and the longer it
is allowed to run, the harder it is to
cure. The Bitters cures indigestion,
constipation, dyspepsia and bilious
ness, naturally and permanently, with
out shocking the system. 1t is good for
everybody.
