VALUE OF
 PLATINUM

An interesting article by A. Lodian, in the Electrical Review, tells of the cu. jos ties of platinum production. The writer says:
 "All the platinum that has ever been produced from all countries of the globe since the first discovery of the metal would barely exceed one hun dred tons of the fine metal. You could put 1t all in a single block in room of ten meters cube. Never in its his tory was there so great a demand for platinum as today; yet with the min ing world keenly alive to it's import ance, with it's double-t the prlce-of . present-day incentive, with experts searching for it here and there the world over, and mine owners urging the output to the limit still the an nual platinum croy of the globe bare ly touches half dozen tons.
 Three decades ago the value of platinum was g. per ounce. Today it is above S32. The product of platinum from the entire Ural range has never ! in a single year greatly exceeded $2,OoO,OOO in value, the largest product by weight having been, in 1893 some thing under six tons.
 The Russian Urals supply 95 per cent of the worlds platinum, and its production Is in the hands of half q dozen concerns.
 Without knowing even the meaning of the word trust these parties, by their very fewness can always easily reach an understanding The Rus sian government watches very closely the production of platinum; knows to shave the annual production, and how the world is dependent on the Urals for it's main supply, and is not slow to take advantage of ,his fact, and in turr have an understanding with the few mine owners
 At one time Russia had on hand such stock of platinum that the question was what to do with it. It was a veritable drug on the market Finally, after years of chewing the cud' over the platinum glut, the gov ernment hit upon the idea of using it as money For seventeen years-from 1928 to 1S45-the St. Petersburg na- tional mint issued millions of francs worth of money of fine platinum. The pieces were of three, six and twelve rubles. Altogether the equivalent of a couple of million dollars worth of platinum money was issued
 What became of the platinum money millions? Although officially withdrawn from circulation over half century ago, it is estimated that less than $1OOO,OOO worth has been re ceived back into the national treasury or otherwise heard of during all the period elapsed. The other million or more is summed away here and there among the stocking hoardings of ths Russian mujiks, in remote villages.
 However, in that hoarded platinum money there is $1,0OO,OOO worth of platinum fine assured in sight to those who care to hunt for it. The question is, how to find it. It would mean journey of G couple of year from village to village, a knowledge of tact and of the Russian language SD eminently requisite when inquiring into such a sensitive subject as mujiks hoardings; yet the results, if successful, would be munificent The unenlightened peasants would ba glad to exchange their platinum pieces for modern coin-probably be pleased enough to get half their face value even"

A lady who was recently appointed
a visitor to a hospital for children,
fearing that poor children failed to re-
ceiye the same attention bestowed on
those of richer parents, paid her first
visit to the institution, intending to
effect a change. In a ward she found
tiny boy quite alone. He Informed
her that there was another boy in the
ward, but that he was being examined
before clinic. The lady looked
around her for evidence of neglect
on the part of the attendants A suit
of clothes lay huddled on chair. Fold
ing them in an orderly manner, She
said:
surely, my dear, these trousers are.
too long for you by several inches"
Yes, ma'am,' replied the boy.
"A sin and shame" cried she, and
took companion from her bag. She
sat down and cut off the legs Of the
garment and hemmed the edges.
Now" she said triumphantly, when
the task was complete, they will dt

piled the child They belong to him"
And there's the rest cure; but don't
