A diving patient RECEIVERS through the in
terposition OF humble German.
Chicago, Nov. Is.
Some weeks ago DR.. C., very reput-
able and widely-known physician, living on
c. Street, was called to attend very
complicated case OF Rheumatism. Upon
arriving at the house he found man about
forty years of age, lying in Frustrated and
serious condition, with his whole frame
dangerously affected with the painful dis
ease. He prescribed for the patient, but
the man continued to grow worse, and on
Sunday evening he was found to be in q
very alarming condition. The knees and ell
bows and larger joints were greatly In
famed, and could mott be moved. 1t was
only with extreme difficulty that the pa.
Of three or four persons. The weight of
the clothing was SO painful that means had
to be adopted to keep it from the patients
body.
The doctor saw that his assistance would
be of no avail, and left the house, the men,
bers of the family following him to the
door, weeping. Almost Immediately the
grief-stricken ones were addressed by an
humble German. He had heard of the
despair of the family, and now asked them
to try his remedy, and accordingly brought
forth bottle of st. Jacobs Oil. The poor
wife applied this remedy. The first appli-
cation eased the patient very much; after
q few hours they used it again, and, won
der of wonders, the pain vanished entirely!
Every subsequent application improved the
patient, and in two days he was well and
out. When the doctor called few days
after, he was indeed surprised.

The Stauber system as thus applied in-
cludes process for rapidly drying the
moist peat by means of heated and
compressed air within closed cham
Der or channel, communicating with
conduit pipes in such manner that heat
ed air can be forced through the drying
channel and cold air through the out
let pipe, the effect being that the cold
air quickly absorbs the hot, saturated
air out of the drying chamber and con-
denses it in the conduit pipes, thus
greatly stimulating the process of
evaporation by which the peat is dried.
Peat in its raw state contains from 70
to IS per cent. Of water and in the
humid climate of northern Europe is
usually very difficult material to dry.
1t is claimed for the Stauber method
that it reduces the moisture to is or
20 per cent. quickly, effectively and.

the chemical composition of the peat
or in any way adding to it. The drying
machine is in the boiler form (cylin.

3 HE anthracite coal strike, al
Though settled temporarily, is
4W certain to give rise to the crea-
tion of an important new industry
the making of heat from agencies
little employed in the United
States heretofore. Canada is al
ready experimenting with the manu-
facture of peat briquettes; in Cali
fornia briquettes are made of coal
dust and refuse, and in Pennsylvania
investors and inventors are engaged in
devising means for the production of
condensed fuel which may be had at all
times, whether coal mines are operated
or not.
Users of fuel-and that means every
body-will be very deeply interested in
a late report sent to the state depart
ment by Frank H. Mason, consul gen.
eral to Berlin, which deals with the
use of briquettes, made from brown
coal, carbonized peat, coal dust and so
forth, used as domestic and steam fuel
in Berlin and other German cities, and
the wholesome effect of such fuel, to-
gether with coke and fuel gas, in pre-
serving towns and cities from the
smoke nuisance and at the same time
affording fuel cheaper than the hard
coal.
Mr.. Mason says there are in opera
tion in Germany SO manufactures Of
fuel briuuettes and he goes on to saw:
"If Americans are really interested in
Baxter Springs news. [volume] (Baxter Springs, Kan.) 1882-1919, 1902-11-15

the subject there is NO need that they
should risk any large sums OF money
in uncertain experiments. They have
only to study the machinery and meth
DDS employed in European countries,
compare their crude materials with
those found and used here, and they
can thus start at the point of technical
knowledge which Europeans have
reached after many years of expert
ence. When. some ten years ago, the
attention of American ironmakers
was called to the German system OF
making blast furnace coke in retort
ovens, which saves the valuable volatile
elements Of the coal, it was thought
worth while by certain OF them 70
bring over two carloads OF Connelis-
sille coal to be cooked as test by the
German process. The complete success
pf that experiment decided the intro
auction of the standard German type OF
cooking oven into the United States.
Something similar, it would seem,
might profitably be done with the
materials which Americans have not
ct succeeded in converting into salts
factory briquettes. There are expert
enced engineers and dozen manu1ac-
turers of Understanding machinery
who would gladly cooperate In these
tests and would furnish machinery
ADAPTED to working the material thus
technically defined. Upon a basis OF
such tests, plans and estimates could
be obtained for the erection OF plants
b the United States with specified daily
eapacity. Among the builders OF bri-
matchmaking machinery in Germany
the following may be cited asof stand
ard reputation, the first two named be-

"a second process is that invented by
F. Schulke of Bach strasse, Hamburg,
the salient feature of which is that
the turf or peat used is cleaned OF
roots, stones, ETC.. then liquefiel by
water and pumped through pipe
several miles to the works, where, as
claimed by the inventor, it is leached
and converted by heat and pressure
into briquettes at net cost OF So ton,
or into artificial coal having thermal
value of $3.50 calories at cost OF
So. so per ton. 1t is understood that
large plant is in process of erection on
the northern coast of Germany for the
utilization of this method, but as to
the actual condition of the enterprise
or the practical value of the process
on an industrial scale, no exact infor-
nation is at hand.
"The Schoening-Fritz process for
making artificial coal and briquettes
by carbonizing dried peat is an elab-
Grafton by German engineer OF the
system invented by Schoening and
used with more or less success at
Stamsund, in Norway. The German
patent is owned by a corporation
known as the Deutsche Torfkohlen
Gesellschaft, which has its Office in
Berlin and a small plant at the subur-
ban town of Halensee, where two ma
chimes of small capacity--one worked
by hand, the other by power-have
been set up for experimental purposes.
"Of the processes actually employed.
the value of which has been fully es-
tablished by experience, one Of the
most interesting is that invented by
C. Schlickeysen, of Rixdorf-Berlin,
and practically operated there, at Mu-
mich and other places. The peculiar
feature of this system is that by it
black, dense briquettes of high caloric
value are made from peat without the
application of heat-simply through
the action of kneading and drying.
Turf briquettes ordinarily contain
about 66 per cent. of inflammable ele-
ments, the remainder being made up
of inorganic ash and water. They are
thus inferior as fuel to briquettes
made from brown coal, which average
20 per cent. or more of inflammable
matter. Both represent in their
present form the utmost that science
has been able to do in utilizing inferior
and otherwise almost worthless ma
terials to supplement and exc out the
insufficient coal supply of European
countries"
