WIEN LADY FRIENDS MEET.
Kissing Is Out of Favor, So They
Now Shake Hands.

Kissing Is Out of Favor, So They
Now Shake Hands.
There are about four reasons,
says the London Express, for the
passing of the kiss.
/. 1t has been proved difficult
for two persons wearing Gains
borough hats or their modifca-
tions to kiss.
2. The long flowing wells of the
moment become a tangled mass of
chiffon or net and the large velvet
spots with too rough treatment
easily become detached.
3. The complexion, unless ex-
ceedingly well made, is apt to
smear, and the powder easily rubs
off, presenting a daubed effect.
4. The elaborate blouse and
neck rufies, with the multitudin-
Gus chains, etc, of modern dress
decorations. are easily crushed
and quickly lose their pristine
beauty.
II is therefore considered bad
taste TO kiss in public, and so,
since there must be some way OF
welcoming a friend, the manly
handshake has come in.

Sir Harry Rawson, the popular
English admiral, was welcomed as
governor Of New South Wales
with the greatest enthusiasm.
One port greeted him in a novel
and interesting way. There were
no guns big enough to salute him
with, so an enterprising loyalist
hit on the happy idea Of utilizing
kerosene tins. With the assist

fuse the salute was duly given, re.

WHAT STEEL IS MADE OF.
Brief Description of Some of the
Processes Of Manufacture.

Processes Of Manufacture.
The raw materials of manufac.
ture in making pig iron consist
Of iron ore, coke and limestone,
says the Scientific American. In
the manufacture of the steel from
which rails are rolled there are
two fundamental processes; first,
the reduction of the ore in the
blast furnace, and then the con
version of the molten iron into
steel in the converter. The de-
scriptiOn of the blast furnace is
the same for all the subsequent
branches of the steel industry,
for blast furnace practice is broad
~ the same to-day in every fur
mace throughout the country.
Each furnace there are lin all at
the Edgar Thomson works. con-
sists of a huge steel shell, varying
from 70 to 80 feet in height. 1t
has its largest diameter at about
a quarter of it's height, and tapers
regularly to the smallest dame
ter at the top platform. The up
per portion is known as the
"stack," the lower portion as the
"bosh," while below this is the
'hearth," in which the molten cast
iron collects. The bosh, which is
just above the tuyeres, is pro
vided with annular hollow bronze
castings built into the brickwork,
through which a stream of cold
water is circulated for the purpose
of keeping down the temperature
Of the brickwOrk at the hottest
part of the furnace. 1t should be
explained that the whole interior
of the steel shell is lined with
about three feet of brickwOrk.

Whether there is merely a TEN.
pOrary lull in the bestOwal on

whether the practice is dying out
iit is difficult to say, but it is an
undeniable fact that in no branch
iOf life do nickDames flourish at
the present day so rankly as they
were wont to do in the past. There
used 10 be a time, says the London
Globe, when every politician Of
any Importance had his particular
name, sometimes OpprObrious.
Nowadays we have "Joe" for Mr..
chamberlain, and Mr.. Labou
chere's name is generally abbre-
waited; but otherwise the publici is
content to speak of its leaders by
their proper names. MOI is it only
in the political world that this is
noticeable. Mechanics are dying
out in the public schools. In the
earlier books of school life very
curious school life) the hero on his
arrival at ST Asterisk's schooI or
Blank college is Immediately
equipped with a sobriquet by
which the whole system will
call him In future. The modern
boy, for the most part, avoids this
habit, Mechanics are reserved
for those in authority. The lights
of the 10 and II may possess them,
but the new boy who expects to be
saddled with some cacophonOus
ititle will be agreeably disappoint
ed. And even the members of the
football and cricket teams re
ferred to rarely receive genuine
nicknames Of the old style. We
cannot help feeling that this is an
