a TALK ABOUT NICKEL.
During my stay nj Copper Clih today |
l had a chat with Mr.. David II. Browne,
the metaIurgist Of the International
Nickel company, about nickel and the
new uses for 1t. Mir. Browne has been
connected with the Canadian copper
company for the past h years. lie has
been working successfully in nickel
an the time. and he knows as much,
perhaps about It as amy man I'm the
country. In speaking Of the similarity
of nickel steel to meteorites, MrBroWnc
remarked that IL had practically the
same composition as the latter. "a
mcteorite,' said he, might he called
| part of burst world which has shot
| Off through space and fallen to earth.
The discovery Of the process Of making
| nickol-steel was by am Englishman
| named Riley, who got the suggestion
| from a meteor found I'm Greenland. This
| meteor was an immense mass which
| had fallen from the skies ages ago
| and was venomted by the Greenland
crs as a god, The natives We're wont TO
| hammer splntcrs from IL, and make
| them into spear heads and hammer
heads. They accompanied their work
by prayers to the god, ana found that
| their spear heads were finer than any
| that they could get elsewhere. \ few
| years ago peary, the explorer brought
one Of these metcorltes to New YORK
and it f. now IN the center Of the arch
of the Museum Of Natural History on
| Scventy-scyenth street That meteor Is
pure nlckcl-stoel and the spinters and
| hammer heads OF the Greenl1nders were

ccvories and this gave him the idea
| which ended in the new metal | think

II suppose the chief use Of nickel is
| for making such steel is il not?'
Yes. although there are many other
| manufactures into which nickel enters,
| The beauty about uickcl-steel is that

THE NICKEL TRUST
For all practical purposes there is
only one nickel company operating mere
today. This Is the International Nick
ell company. which is a combination OF
the Canadian Copper company, which
operates here. and its associate COM
panles OF the United States which re-
duce the matte and handle the product.
The company has a capitalization run
ming high into the millions, and ! un-
derstand that it pays good dividends
The Canadian Copper company was
the first to mine nickel in large guam
titles. II was organized by ono par
ties in 1856. the chief incorporators DC
ing Cleveland men, among Whom we're

II PAYNE and others The Canadian
Pacific road had made bare the nickel
deposits several years before; but no
one had looked upon the ore as nickel

their copper to New Jersey, and anoth-

at New Jersey looked upon the nlckGl
as of no account and let il run on WIN

Where Doctors Agree.

When a patient is under the doctor s
care for some months, with constantly
varying symptoms, but ever increasing
weakness from the loss of flesh and
strength by the ravages of disease, all
doctors will agree that the first gain
of flesh indicates a change for the bet
ter. Weak, thin, feshless people know
they feel better as soon as they gain
flesh. The best flesh and blood maker
is DR.. Gum s Blood and Nerve Tonic.
