A USE FOR COAL ASHES,

Discovery That Tireproof Mortar

George II. Avcrill, living at Arvcrnc

means OF using The waste coal ash Gin
drrs that will make the hitherto use
less material Of great commercial val
uc. The use which Mr.. Avcrill has
found for these coal ashes IS In Il new
kind of lircproof mortar, 90 per cent Of
which is made up OF coal ashes and the
rest double hydraulic cement, says the
Brooklyn Eagle Mr.. AvcrIll has had
tests made under the supervision Of tho
department Of buildings in Manhattan
which show that the insulating proper
ties OF block constructed according
to Mr.. Avcrills specifications are very
great. In fact Mr.. Aycrill says that
with over 100 degrees T.. hardly any
prrcrptible heat could be felt by the
hahd on the other side of the block.
Matches which had been laid on the
block were not ignitcd, and some white
pine and oak Spnntcrs showed no signs
OF charrinG. \ thermometer on the IN.
per side Of the block during the whole
time Of the test registered only 110 de-
grccs.
Mr.. Avcrill also proposes to make n
iirrproof concrete from the waste ashes
which can be used in ceilings and can
be made into blocks for partitions. 1t
has been estimated that the amount of
waste Of coal ashes in Manhattan and
brooklyn aggregates 100000 cubic
yards yearly, the greater portion Of
which Is now dumped into the ocean.

influence of American Women on
British Social Customs

Influence of American Women on
British Social Customs.
but it Is not only IN tho realm Of tho
shopkceper that Americans have be-
come popular, says Earl Mayo In tho
January Forum. They have been talk.
en- up with equal or even greater ell
thusiasm by the highest ranks Of socl.
ETY.. There Is no doubt that their popu-
nrlty has been due in great measure
to the influence Of those American wo.
men who have married into the ranks
Of the clever, titled or wealthy, who
form the most important elements Of
British high society. The grace, tho
brightness and the adaptabillty Of
these women have made them I'M
mcnscly popular, and the British, hay
Ing found them fair types Of their
countrywomcn and countrymcn, have
extended an equally cordial welcome
TO the latter. at every house party
held IN England last summer, at every
London dinner and Oh every yachting
expedition Americans were much in
evidence.
There have been MANY signs also to
show American influence on English
be seen In the decay or one may say
more properly perhaps the relaxation
of the stiff ncckcd chapcron system.
Until quite recently 1t was unusual to
find In England n formal gathering at
which Fashionable young wCmcn were
allowed to attend unacconpanlcb by
ch0pcr0nS. During the last season,
however, there were many such uf-
fairs organized by fashionable young
people and under the direction OF
single young matr0n, as IS very Ecnpr-
ally the custom in this country. There
IS a very noticeable tendency In Eng
land to allow young people much moro
freedom OF social intercourse than for
mcrly. 1t cannot he said either that
the change IS ut all unpopular with tho
young people themselves or that it
seems likely to have any other effect
than to develop in the English girl the
self reliance that Is so prominent
characteristic OF her American cousin
and TO make young men and women
understand each other better than un-
der the older and more formal system.
Another effect Of American example
| is to be found In the growing popular
1ty OF hotel and restaurant life abroad
Until the American "lnvasion" 1t was
almost an unhcard Of thing for a fam
| lily to take dinner In public rcstau-
| rant when their own house was availn-
! bic for the purpose. And as for enter
tuining friends in such n place. that
was looked upon rs altogether too
| uutrc to be attempted. Now, however,
nll this IS changed, and 1t Is not un-
| usual fer London host and hostess to
call upon the resources OF fnSliona-
bic hotel or restaurant In giving enter
tAinmcnts beyond tho limits OF ordina-
ry house accommodation. \ significant
sign Of the trend i'm this direct lon is to
| be found I'm the rapid multiplication of
fine hotels that IS going on In London
Mt the present time These hotels them
selves, by the way, arc becoming rap
idly AmcricaniZcd. American methods
OF organization and management,
American dishes and American drinks
arc coming more and more into vogue,
and It Is easy enough to find half
dozen hotels In London which are in
all essential respects exactly like those

the farmers of the county in com
munication with each other and
their markets. An attorney has
been employed to incorporate the

to issue stock at $40 each, to be

Pledges for stock have already been
