The World Uses More of Them Now
Than 1t Ever Did Before.
The 'tallow dip" Of our grandfathers
1t is made of stearic acid which is
only one ingredient of the tallow that
grows in the sheep and in the steer.
Neither is the ''tallow dip" of today
a real dip" They used to take long
wicks and dip them in bot tallow,
time after time. till the candle had &C
CURED the proper thickness. Today
they run hot stearic acid into moldS
and make a hundred candles instan-
taneously.
The "tallow dip" on the market to-
day. therefore, would be more accurate
~ described if it were called "stearic
acid mold" But nevertheless it re-
mains a tallow product. 1t is the di-
rect lineai descendant of the "tallow
dip" of our grandfatherS. And it is
still so popular that just about $780,
OO0.100 pounds of tallOw. according to
the calculation of one of the best in
formed manufacturers of Chicago. are
consumed every year in the candle
factories of the United States. AL
though gas and kerosene and electric
ity have deprived the candle of a large
part of the popularity to which it
might be entitled, it is probable that
in both hemispheres today there are
more candles shedding their mild and
humble radiance than in any previous
period Of the worlds history-Tech-

HOWEVER TO COMPLETE THAT
WORK ALREADY PLANNED.

All Of the city schools opened today,

all Of the teachers will try to accom-

courses, from now until the close or
school for the holiday season. He
says that the teachers have kept up
with the work SO far, and that there
will be little trouble experienced III &C
somplishing the allotted amount.
At Garfield practically all of the stu
dents were on hands this morning and
the work was taken up where left Off
