form out of the water and climbed
laboricusly across the jagged ridges of

The captains eyes, rowing duly over

bright object among the pile of stones.
1t was a small silver flask.

Use Of Denatured Alcohol.

Not alone among automobilists, en-
gineers and men of commercial pur-
suits generally is there a deep cur
rent of interest apparent in the prob
lem of the adaptability of denatured
alcohol to their several needs, but
among all classes in all walks of life,
and housewives in particular, one
finds an assertive inquisitiveness as
to how and when cheap alcohol is to
be afforded to the public. The United
States commissioner of internal rev.
enue has just returned from tour
of Europe, made to study the free
alcohol problem as it appears there,
and he brings some enlightening in
formation. He says that nothing has
been settled yet as to the kind of de-
naturant to be used in this country.
In Great Britain and France he found
that wood alcohol and mineral naph-
tina were used, rendering the spirits
unfit for drinking. In Germany a com.
position of wood alcohol with bone
oil was employed, but which If either
or any of these win be used as de-
naturant here the commissioner was
unable to state. He further declared
that denatured alcohol has by no
means supplanted gasoline in Europe,
and said that the only automobiles
propelled by spirits. so far as his OBJ
servations went, were in Germany.
Nevertheless, says the Troy Times, he
appears to be confident that in time
this country will be enabled to teach
the world much about the possible use
of alcohol. The free alcohol act, so
called. will go into effect here Jan
uary I.

Secret Of the Pyramlds.


A Brooklyn engineer of note. who
spent several years in Egyptian ex.
ploration, is of opinion that the mys-
terry of the pyramids has been solved.
The most extraordinary pictures
showing 100000 men hauling on a
rope to raise 100000 pound stone
into its proper niche near the pin
nacle of old Cheops is familiar to ali
of us. Theories as to the mode of
construction are legion. But all the
engineering logic and experience of
to-day and for the last 100 years has
failed to cast more than shadow
over the mystery. Piazzi Smith
thought he knew all about it, but
nothing Of practical nature has
come of his researches 1t is singu.
lar that our wise men did not think
of examining with critical eye the
tools found in the catacombs. The
old saw-a workman is known by
his chips--is no better than work
man is known by his tools. Our Brook
Ignite says that the tools are not
those of rock masons, nor mere plas-
terers implements for filing the
cracks between stones, but are plain
ly the crude Egyptian plant Of oper-
atives engaged in mixing and laying

their steel. iron and stone piers,
abutments, culverts. etc, with 1t, and
1t is expected to last forever. No
great skill is required in manipulating
IT, There is no chiseling, hammering.
doweling., no heavy lifting with
derricks. no insists. The industry al
ready has grown to enormous proper
tons. Drop sack of dry cement to
the bottom of river and in few
minutes you have a solid stone that
never will wear away. Drop 1000
sacks on top of 1t and round it and
presently you will have foundation
that will sustain for all time a mil
