"Dust Devils" of White Nile Valley

Travellers in the celebrated Death
Valley of California have described
the wonderful contortions of the sand
pillars that small whirlwinds some
times send spinning across the hot
plain. Even more remarkable ara
dust DEVILS" seen by an explorer in
the valley of the White Nile. Some
times two of these whirling columns,
gyrating in opposite directions, meet,
land if they be well matched the col
lision stops them and struggle en-.
sues as to which way they shall twist.
Gradually one gains the mastery, and
the two combined rush on together"
Some of these whirlwinds will strip
the clothes from an Arabs back, or
send goat spinning round and round
like top.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by alapplications as they cannot reach the
diseased portion OF the ear. THERE'S only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by consti
tutional remedies. Deafness Is caused by an
innamed condition OF tho mucous lining OF
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is In
famed you have II rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing and when 1t Is entirely closed
Deafness Is tho result, and unless the inflam-
nation can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal cond ttion, hearing will
be destroyed forever. Nine cases out OF ton
are caused by catarrb ,whichis nothing but an
innamed condition OF the mucous surfaces.

WILL NO LONGER Be - =,

terry calls for a great deal of cobalt, and
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
ing car as a positive necessity TO their
wcll-bcins.
Mr.. Edison has inspected cobalt de-
posits 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
themselves. No one who knows Mr.. Edi-
son doubts that he has got pretty nearly
what he says he has in his storage bat
terry. Mr.. Edison has never been of that
type of man who announces that he has
something which time sooner or later
proves that he has not.
To invent and perfect an electrical
storage battery for widespread CONNER
cial use has been the dream, the ambi-
tion, Of Mr.. Edison for years. Nay. it
has been his hobby, to the practical ex-
clusion of all other scientific investiga-
tion. He has worked day and night
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
battery. His fellow scientists have
twitted him sood-naturedly on his lug

So remarkably does cobalt possess the

common expression, that even the
faintest trace of it will render iron Stag

in all truth, that cobalt. in compound,

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 benehting mankind immeas-
urably. Mr. Edison himself declares that
until he has perfected 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 sinsleness of purpose, one
might say, Mr.. Edison has pursued the
problem of the storage battery, does not

has been practically unknown to the
average person. Let US see what it is
and what it does.
It's the principal ingredient of color
ing matter known as smalt, which is en-
ployed by laundresses to correct the yel-
low color of newly washed linen, and
by paper manufacturers as blue pig
ment for staining writing papers and COL
oring wall paper. Smalt is the only
substance that will give a 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
Cañon City record., 1906-10-18

and quartz sand. The molten mass is
poured into water and finely powdered.
This powder it is that is used after the
fashion of indigo and to stain the dainty
blue note-paper that is favorite now-a-
days for carrying tender messages around
the world.
Cobalt. when compounded with oxy-
gen, also gives a 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 one-thousandth part of CO.

make the glass decided blue,

when in dilute solution, the color is no,
discoverable when used on paper. Only
when the piece OF paper is heated before
fire, thus causing the chloride to lose
the water, does the writing stand ou,

ease. The writing can be made invisible
again by putting the paper in damp
place or by holding it over steaming
kettle, a Ia the heroines of long ago.
According to Watts Dictionary of
Chemistry" these are the properties OF
cobalt: Steel gray, lustrous, crystalline
plates; nearly white when polished !;
hard; somewhat mallcable, very ductile
at red hea, 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 il closely resembles
both iron and nickel. the latter more than
iron. 1t is found associated with silver,
nickel. iron, manganese and bismuth. II
is difficult to separate cobalt from its
associates, especially nickel. 1t is seldom

mined for itself alone; it is more profit
able to secure it as 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-.7 .7t>tal was supposed
to be worthless, in compound. as Il is
now of itself-excebt IN Mr.. Edison's
battery, of course Blue pottery and
glass recovered from ancient ruins have
been found to have cobalt as 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
