Ell shiver. Ny face, hair and

stood old Sapt. a sneering smile on his
face and an empty bucket in his hand
On the table by him sat Fritz Won Tar

my arm. 'look here"
The king lay full length on the floor.
His face was red as his hair, and he
breathed heavily. Sapt, the disrespect-
ful old dog. kicked him sharply. He
did not stir. nor was there any break
IN his breathing. / saw that his face
and head were wet with water, as
were mine.
'We've spent half an hour on him"

"He drank three times what either Of

Of late are J. Pierpont MorgaS Thorn

Jr. Mr.. Morgan and Mr.. Ryan hob
nobbed several times the past summer
with King Leopold of Belgium, who
controls the vast rubber trade of the
Kongo Free State. and it is now report
ed that Mr.. Ryan has fixed up some
kind of deal with the Belgian mon
arch whereby American traders In this
important article of commerce and in
dustry will be able to develop the dis
tricts in which raw rubber Is obtained
and increase the worlds supply of this
commodity.
Considering the variety of purposes
for which rubber is used today, 1t Is
hard to imagine how our ancestors
managed to get along without the ar
ticle. Yet it is rather less than sixty
years ago that it came into general use.
1t was utilized by the natives Of South
America before Europeans discovered
the continent, but it was not until ITO
that it was put to any industrial use in
civilized countries. Then a few pieces
were sent to England and employed by
artists in erasing pencil marks. 1t was
not until Charles Goodyear in 1910 dis
covered the process Of vulcanization Of
rubber that it's adaptability to utiliza-

TAPPING TUE RUBBER TREE FOR SAP.
ton in industry on large scale was
realized. Goodyear had been expert
mentinE on the subject for six years
and one evening when sitting by the
kitchen fire dcscanting on the possibill.
ties of rubber lac accidentally struck
handful Of rubber and sulphur against
the hot iron of the stove. 1t was the
result of this chance action which re
vealcd to him the secret of the process
of vulcanZation. All branches of the
rubber business in the United States
today took their permanent rise from
the date of GOodyear's patent. The in
vention of the bicycle and the automo
bile vastly extended the demand for
rubber, and to meet this demand capt.
talists have sought out for exploitation
all those sections of the earth where
trees producing rubber in commercial
quantities grow. There are about
hundred trees which give rubber
making juices in sufficient quantities
for commercial purposes. while many
plants have similar juices in small
quantities. Though western and cen
trail Africa and the Amazon district OF
South America are depended ON for
large portion of the supply, efforts have
been made to obtain rubber from plan
tations cultivated on scientific princi'
pies in regions more accessible tG
trade. Most important Of these enter
prses at present are those Of Mexico
1t Is expected that in time the Philip
pines will become an important source
Of supply for the United States.
OF course there is much difference
in the appearance Of the trees and
plants which produce caoutchouc or
rubber, but the kewattia or rubber
tree of west Africa, which supplies
great deal of the sap from which rub
Der is made. is one of the most beau
tiful trees of the forest and grows to
a height of forty to sixty feet. The tree
is tapped, allowing the juice to flow
until it Is exhausted. Later another
incision Is made. The sap Is caught IN
cups or calabashes. The rubber Is
brought to market by caravans Of ma.
tives and sometimes by canoes. The
value Of the annual rubber product
exceeds $20O,OOO,O00 and several hun
dred thousand men are employed In
the industry

South Cumberland from the west, was
derailed and nearly turned over at

below the Virginia avenue crossing
and blocked traffic for some time. The
engineer, whose name could not be
ascertained, jumped from the cab win

the switch and thus prevented what
might have resulted in a serious if
mot fatal injury to himself. The Bal

bne was injured and the only damage
was that done to the tracks, which
were badly torn up.
