Moderation in Exercise.

1t is better to be lazy than dead, and
1t Is probably just as comfortable. For
obvious reasons the prescription to take
moderate exercise is misleading and
unsatisfactory Most of us are consti-
tutionally incapable of exercising mod
erately. We begin violently and end
quickly. And what is moderate exer-
else? One philosopher who tried it for
twenty years arrived at this conclu-
sion: Keep a pair Of Indian clubs in
your bedroom. Look at them frequent
~. Exercise by their suggestion |"
This has the merit of moderation. 1t
Is the same as to walking. Smell the
morning. look down the long way that
separates you from yonr business.
Then take car.-Detroit Free Press.

he was Immediately recognized as Rich

Good morning." said the barber at

A grunt was the only reply.
"Well, how was things over at the
house last night?"
What house?" answered the actor
Ironically.

what do you mean, sir?"
"Why. are you not Richard Mans

in all truth, that cobalt, in compound,

cobalt at two dollars pound, Mr.. Edi-
son feels, would be looked upon as a
luxury by most of those very fortunate
persons whose pocketbooks enable them
to view even the imported gasoline tour

well-being.
Mr.. Edison has inspected cobalt de-
posts in North Carolina. He has been
to Canada. He will go to Missouri. He
has other places on his visiting list Will
his patient quest be rewarded by sue
cess? That is question that automo-
bile manufacturers are anxiously asking

over the problem; he has frequently
thought he stood on the threshold of
success, only to be disappointed the next
day, or week.
In all these years that he has been
struggling with the problem interviewers
have had hard time to get him to talk
on any subject other than his storage

Cobalt, when compounded with oxy-
gen, also gives blue color, and oxide
of cobalt is used exclusively to color
glass, porcelain and pottery. The color
ing properties of cobalt blue, essentially
the oxide of cobalt, is so great that the
addition of onc-thousandth part of CO.
bait blue to white glass is sufficient to
make the glass decided blue.
Cobalt blue, as a pigment, is used by
painters and water color workers; they
could not get many effects without it.
Old Sevres blue, very famous porce-
lam blue, Kings blue, Thenard's blue,
variegated blue, turquoise blue, deep

more or less widely known blues, have

sympathetic ink. A faint pink in color
when in dilute solution, the color is not
discoverable when used on paper. Only
when the piece of paper is heated before
4 fire, thus causing the chloride to lose
tie water, does the writing stand out
1.ue, thus enabling it to be read with
ease. The writing can be made invisible
again by putting the paper in damp
place or by holding it over steaming
kettle, la the heroines of long ago.
According to Watts Dictionary of
Chemistry" these are the properties of
cobalt: steel gray, lustrous, crystalline
plates; nearly white wher polished;
hard; somewhat malleable; very ductile
at red heat and upwards; slightly mag
netic, even at full red heat. The COM
pact metal does not oxidize in air at or
binary temperatures"
Chemically, cobalt is classed with iron,
nickel and manganese in the iron group.
In many respects it closely resembles
both iron and nickel, the latter more than
iron. 1t is found associated with silver,
nickel, iron, manganese and bisnuth 1t

associates, especially nickel. 1t is seldom

ging in of the battery at every possible
turn of conversation. 1t is scarcely to
be doubted that he has given more time
and thought to the battery than he did
to any one of his many inventions that
are now benefting mankind immeas-
urably. Mr.. Edison himself declares that
until he has perfected a storage battery
along the lines that he has laid down for
himself he will not feel that he has done
his full share of the worlds work.
When one realizes how earnestly,
and with what singleness of purpose, one
might say, Mr.. Edison has pursued the
problem of the storage battery, does not

dramatic?
Cobalt, this gnome, this evil spirit that
holds such rosy promise for the future,
has been practically unknown to the

and what it does.
1t is the principal ingredient of color
ing matter known as smalt, which is en-
ployed by laundresses to correct the yell
low color of newly washed linen, and
by paper manufacturers as a blue pig
ment for staining writing papers and col
oring wall paper. Smalt is the only
substance that will give lasting blue to
paper, and, until an artificial ultramarine
was introduced, it was used exclusively
for this purpose. Smalt is obtained by
fusing roasted cobalt ore with pearl-ash

mined for itself alone; it is more profit
able to secure it as a by-product But
the day may not be far distant when
cobalt will be mined for itself alone. In
its greatest quantity cobalt is now pro-
duced as an accessory of nickel.
There is evidence to show that the
use of cobalt in coloring glass is one of
the rediscovered secrets of the ancients.
Modern Europe did not know of this
property of cobalt oxide until 1870; be-
fore that time the metal was supposed
to be worthless, in compound, as it is
now of itself-except in Mr.. Edison's
battery, of course Blue pottery and
glass recovered from ancient ruins have
been found to have cobalt as a base for
their color
Not until almost two hundred years
after the first commercial use of this
gnome metal was discovered by Scheurer
did Brandt recognize it as one of the ele-
ments. Now, nearly two and three
quarter centuries after Brandt, it would
seem that the element itself is to be
proved commercially useful and cause a
startling revolution in transportation, if
only it can be produced in sufficient
quantity and purity to make it cheap.
Unless it can be found in a compara-
lively pure state the long and tedious
process will render its use in Mr. Edi-
sons factory impracticable.
The principal localities of cobalt pro-
duction to-day are Schneeberg, Saxony,
where the metal got its bad name; Mo-
dunn, Norway; Tunaberg, Sweden; Mu-
sen, Rhenish Prussia; Bolivia; Chile;
little spot in Missouri; the Transvaal,
where pure variety of what is known
as speiss cobalt, free of nickel, has re-
Gently been found; and Canada, where
it is mined as an accessory of silver.
The Canada mines are the latest to
be opened. The presence of the element
in the Dominion was not suspected until
a big cut for a new railroad through
virgin forest revealed it in company with
its customary bed=fellow, silver. The
latter metal at once brought about an
influx of miners, who were not long in
making the discovery that the by-product
of cobalt would be very valuable asset
to the mines. Hence, to-day quite an
appreciable percentage of the worlds
supply of cobalt is being obtained from
Ontario. Round about the combined CO.
bait and silver mines, which are more
like diggings than miNes, town OF sew
eral thousand inhabitants has sprung
into existence, and it is now possible for
the traveller to go from New York to
Chicago without change of Pullmans
into the very heart of this region, which
only few months ago was a veritable
wilderness. Many Americans are living
in the town, and not few of the mines |
are controlled by Yankee capitalists; it {
is American money that is largely re- !
sponsible for the rapid development of
the Canada of to-day.
The discovery and development Of
several more cobalt beds as extensive as
the Canadian bed would probably bring
down the price of the mineral to the
figure desired by Mr. Edison. And with
this Wizard of the Century on the track
of the metal, who knows where it will
be mined next, to the end that you and
may behold another wonderful revo-
luton in transportation and other appli-
cations of electricity?
