WAX CANDLES.

Manufactured From ozocerite, Which
is Dug From Earth.
From the New York Times.
In these days of kerosene and gas and
electricity one might think wax candles
had been pushed to the wall by their mod.
ern rivals. but as a matter OF fact the old
friends by which our grandfathers and
grandmothers made love are still an i'm
portant factor in the lighting OF homes in
this city. In the mansions Of the wealthy
as well as in the rooms OF thu poverty
stricken. candles may be found today,
though for widely different reasons. To the
poor. candles are Indispensable because
science never has discovered q cheaper
mode Of lighting. And to the rich the
flood Of light emitted by a forest Of candles
IL a boon because science has not and
probably never will discover softer and
more mellow light than that shed by the
yellow flame at the end Of the ancient wax
cylinder.
In country homes where gas L. not evaila-
BILE and where oil lamps must be used the
candle is found frequently as an agreeable
and safe substitute. The wax candle OF
today. however. is a widely different thing
from that OF olden times. The busy bee
may hum and collect honey and turn out
all the wax she likes; except that her
product Is used for the candles in Roman
Catholic and high" churches. she contrib
utes little or nothing to those found In
the market.
Ozocerite. a mineral wax. dug from the
bowels of old earth at depths varying from
$50 to coo feet, is the substance out OF
which most candles now are made. In
America the mineral Is dug In Utah and In
California, the European beds being located
in Wales and Galicia and Roumania. When
found in It's natural state ozocerite appears
in translucent, dark brown. thin films,
which, upon being refined. resemble BEES
wax closely.
The wax mines of eastern Galicia, leased
and operated by syndicate OF American
capitalists, form one of the most curious
fields of industry imaginable. They are To-
Gated around Boryslav, which is also the
center of the eastern oil district OF that
part of Austria The entire wax fields are
but fifty acres In extent. but more than
LOCO shafts have been sunk In that limited
area and almost 5000 men are at work on
the tract. The veins of the mineral fire.
ouently are sixteen inches thick. andft L.
dug with shovels and hoisted from the
shafts by windlasses. Many uses are made
Of this wax besides molding II into candles
and fortunes have been made by the men
interested in these curious mines. the value
of the crude product being cents a pound
