Of a soft and velvety texture As these
experiments are nearly complete, the
predictions concerning the outcome Of
the application of the new method OF
treating paper are all optimistic in the
extreme. and they point to a revolution
in the manufacture of paper money.
Discoverer of New Process.
f. H. Fowler, chief craftsman of
the Coast and Geodetic Survey. and D.
N. Hoover. chief printer of the same
bureau, are the men to whom the dis
covery of the new process is to be cred
tied. BY utilizing the chemical COM

days of great commercial activity. when,

is urgent. Heretofore, in order to meet
such demands, most careful planning
has been necessary.
Paper Soft and Velvety.
Besides rendering paper soft and vel
vety. the new process also makes it non
shrinkable. an accomplishment which
has heretofore baffed the ingenuity of
the paper manufacturer. and which.
when applied to the printing of postage
stamps aloTle, viii make a saving of 20
per cent in stock and work. Because
paper shrinks after it has received the

ington on the one side, in the manufac-
ture of postage stamps, and the coating
Of mucilage on the other. and because
no two sheets shrink alike, one-hfth are
ruined in the process CT perforation.
Experiments just made under the new
process eliminate all of this loss.
All Paper Would Shrink.
When Mr. Fowler took charge of the
drafting division. five years ago, Re
was told by the chief printer that it was
Impossible to print the maps prepared
in the drafting division. because there
was no paper to be had which would
not shrink. and thus render the maps
inaccurate as to scale. and consequently

/ therefore, had to be copied by hand on
handmade linen paper manufactured
especially for that purpose.
Mr.. Fowler had taken a great in
terest in chemistry. and he at once
began the series of experiments which
two years ago resulted in the chemical
solution which. when applied to paper,
materially changes its quality. PAPER
so treated is declared to be "mellowed
and non-shrinkable." The process is
not expensive.
New Process Patented.
1t has been patented, both in the
United States and foreign countries

Messrs. Fowler and Hoover, the large

Besides the delay Of this process the
wetting and drying rot the fiber of the
paper, and, although it is 'starehed" to
give it the crisp appearance, the starch
soon wears out, and the bill becomes
limp and worn.

greater.
Discovered by Accident
Although the officers Of the Treasury
Department are most enthusiastic over
the Fowler-Hoover discovery. it was
only by accident that it came to their
attention, the inventors attaching little
Importance to it. There are some de-
tails regarding methods of applying the
new compound to paper yet TO be
worked out. but these do not present
any. serious obstacles to its general ap-
plication to all classes of paper Neither
