HR REMOVED THE BODY.
Of Original Work Ut . Crit
lcal Moment.

Many scenes mot down on the bills" are
enacted on the stage of the theater and
some of them are ludicrous in the extreme.
One night in sensa tional drama Mr.. Spar
ling, an English actor of considera bic note,
had to be shot at the end Of the first act and
to die with much promptness "down stage"
he was on platform about twice the size
of an ordinary billiard table, and, being a
youth of many inches, died so far forward
that the curtain could not be lowered with
out leaving his legs exposed to view. "Pull
your legs i'm" missed the hideously inartistic
stage manager from the wings. But the
dead man was far too conscientious and
realistic to play 50 vile trick upon Ora
matte Art-with both its capitals-and so
laid placid and stiff. Gas Mr.. Sparkling after
ward explained to the stage manager: Dead
men don't pull in their legs.")
The curtain might have been up now had
It not been for the presence of mind of the
heavy, man." who had previously done the
deed, for he walked across the stage in q
couple of strides-in spite of having already
made good his final escape from Justice
and, contemplating the body for moment
with arms folded and one leg forward, after
the fashion Of the cardboard brigands Of old,
exclaimed: "Ha, ha! he is dead But now
to remove the body higher up, that suspicion
may not rest on mel" Whereupon he lugged
the murdered mariner up the stage couple
of yard@at the same time looking up to see
that the curtain would clear the corpse's
feet-and once more fled from the scene of
the tragedy.

The Potato in GERMANY

While greatly improving the po-
tato the Germans have so increased
the crop that new ways of disposing
of it have had to be sought They
now feed about two-ffths to farm
animals, and the alcohol makers are
striving to increase the demand for
their product. So much of the pota-
toes is water that 3R tons may be
reduced to one ton by drying. The
dried potatoes keep so much longer
and are so much more readily trans
ported that those interested in the
industry feel justified in offering 3d.
900 marks as a prize for the best
process of drying.

block of steel whose inside walls are
covered with unslacked lime as a
poor heat conductor, and then filled
with retort carbon or graphite and
then have the reaction caused bv
electricity, the alloy, saturat ted with
carbon under the high pressure
which would naturally be caused in
this bomb, would keep liquid for a
long time and the carbon would have
time during the long cooling process
to crystalline in larger crystals. This
would take place with all the more
certainty the larger the quantity of
the reaction mixture is and the long,
er the corresponding temperature
and pressure would hold out.
INSTEAD Of carbon proper a COM
bination of it could be used, and
graphite acid would be best suited
as, if mixed with aluminium, it may
perhaps contribute to the reaction.
The freed carbon would at once be
heated to a high temperature, which
otherwise would be done at the ex.
pense of the metal reduced. In this
manner the hydrogen developed
would even at comparatively low
temperature still exert a high pres
sure upon the mass in the bomb.
The mixture of aluminium and
graphite acid would, however, have
to be placed at the bottom of the
bomb, as otherwise the metal would
become saturated with carbon and
on account Of it's consistency would
not collect at the BOTTOM

DIAMONDS TO ORDER.
German Chemist Relieves That He
Will Be Able to Duplicate Ma
lures Largest Gems.

In the opinion of H. Hoyermann,
German whose mind is bent upon in
vestigation and experiments, it will
not be long before the scientific
world is able to produce artificial
diamonds that will rival the most
highly priced gems of the earth. He
has experimental in a rather super
ing diamonds, and, although his APP
paratus was of the crudest sort, he
progressed far enough to convince
him that in time there would be no
question about the naturalization
of his project.
The idea of artificial diamonds did
not originate with Hoyermann. He
got it from the French chemist Alois-
san, who has been successful in OBJ
tanning crystallized carbon, although
the particles were too small to be
visible to the naked eye. Hoyer-
ma nm, however, has gone a step far
Their. He has produced diamonds
which can be seen without the aid of
n glass, and is confident that with
more improved equipment he could
create stones of commercial size. In
speaking of the experiment, which
he thinks will some day result in a
complete revolution Of the diamond
market, the far-seeing German says:
"Aloissan has proved that carbon
crystallizes from its alloys with
metals at certain high temperatures
and under high pressure as diamond.
After both methods the diamonds
obtained are always small, as the
carbon has not time to form larger
crystals. Should it be possible to
keep metal or All alloy of the same
saturated with carbon for a longer
time in a liquid or semiliquid state
at a certain high temperature and
high pressure, then the conditions
would be given to obtain larger dia-
monds.5

A BENEFIT TO FARMERS.
Consolidation Of Harvester Plants
Means the Continuation Of Low
Prices to Buyers.

The benefits that will undoubt edl,
result 10 farmers from the recent in
corporation of the International Har.
vester Company, which took over the
business of the five leading harvester
manufacturers have probably not
been onsidered by a large portion of
the farming community.
The economical necessity of a con-
solidation of the interests of manu-
facturers and those of their farmer
customers must be apparent to any
one who understands the present sit
uation.
The Increased and increasing cost
OF material, manufacturing and sell
lng-the latter in consequence of ex-
IRENE and bitter competition between
manufacturers and their several SELL
ing agents-has made the business
unprof table.
The two alternatives left for the
manufacturers were either the in
creasing of the prices of machines
or the reduction of the cost of man.
ufacture and sales. The latter could
only be accomplished by concentrate
ing the business in one company.
As can readily be seen, the forming
of the new company was not a stock
jobbing operation, but centering of
mutual interests. There is no watered
stock; the capitalization is conserva-
tive and represented by actual and
tangible assets. There is no stock
offered to the public, it having all
been subscribed and paid for by the
manufacturers and their associations.
The management of the Interna-
tional Harvester Company is in the
hands of well-known, experienced
men.
The officers are: President, Cyrus
II. Mccormick; Chairman Executive
Committee, Charles Deering; Chair
man Finance Committee, George w.
Perkins; Vice-Presidents, Harold F.
Mccormick, James Deering, VIM. H.
Jones and John J. Glessner; Secre-
tary and Treasurer, Richard F. Howe.
The members of the Board of Di-
rectors are as follows: Cyrus Bent
ley, William Deering, Charles Deer
ing, James Deering, Eldridge NJ. Fow-
Ter, E. n. Gary, John j. Glessner,
Richard F. Howe, Abram NJ. Hyatt,
William H. Jones, Cyrus H. McCor-
mick, Harold F. Mccormick, George
W. Perkins, Norman B. Ream, Leslie
N. Ward, Paul D. Cravath.
The International Harvester Com
pany owns five of the largest har-
vester plants in existence, The Cham
pion, Deering, Mccormick, Milwaukee
and Plano-plants that have been pro-
ducing nearly or quite 80 per cent.
of the harvesting machines of the
world.
It also owns timber and coal land1
blast furnaces and a steel plant; it
has a new factory in process of con-
struction in Canada.
It is believed that the cost of pro-
ducing grain, grass and corn har-
vesting machines will be so reduced
that the present low prices can be-
continued, and that consequently the
results cannot be otherwise than
beneficial to the farmer. To main
tain the present prices of these ma
chimes means to continue and in
crease the development of the agri-
culture of the world, for no one
cause has contributed or can con-
tribute more to this development
than the cheapness of machines for
harvesting grains.
