where Rub,e. Arc Found.

In Mogok they see everything In a
ruby light, men, women and children.
Every visitor must want to buy, they
think. However hungry or thirsty the
traveller may be on arrival, the first
thing he hears spoken of Is rubies
All Mogok seems to be fishing with
bamboo holsters, says W. G. Fitzgerald
In the Technical World. And they are
fishing-for rubies, in the precious
.'byon," that rivals in richness the
famous ''blue ground" of Kimberley.
But no industry Is more uncertain
than winning fine rubies In Burmah.
One tunnel was supposed by the local
engineers to contain $15,O00,OOO worth
vet it seemed to fizzle out suddenly
The monopoly abandoned 1t, after
spending much time and money, and
then came along few gentle, almond
eyed Shans and made an immense for
tune out of the derelict mine.
A very few fine rubies enormously
outvalue great quantity OF rough
pale stones. But when all is said ruby
mining is slow and disappointing work
and rarely averages more than $4,000
for each acre treated. 1t is shrewdly
suspected by the white men In Mogoh
that the richest mines of all are al
this moment growing scratch crops OF
poor grain belonging to fanatical ma
tives, who literally place "abov'
rubles," as the Bible has 1t, the land
and manners Of their forefathers.

DiafIIusion.

The American contractor stood at the
base Of the great pyramid and looked at
the venerable monument In disgust.
"Its a big pile, all right" he said !;
"and 1t may do well enough for Egypt,
but If man I'm the United States should
turn out job OF stone work like that the
papers would roast him from Hoboken to
Hegewisch."
Turning away disappointed, he con-
soled himself by taking ride on camel,
which animal he found fully up to oil the
descriptions he had read of 1t.

The village of Sohrusan, In Bohemia,
which was found to be built on val

With the final closure of the Colo
rado river, the great Salton sink, which
Is inundated as the result Of a poorly
constructed headgate of an irrigation
canal and rapidly converted into an
inland sea, will gradually dry up. In
asmuch as there are practically no OUT
lets for this vast body of water, the
sink must naturally evaporate to dry
ness. According to one opinion the
Salton Sea will dry up In about eight
years.
The growing Importance Of the metal
tantalum, owing to its employment in
/ the preparation of flaments for incan-
descent lamps, gives interest to the re-
cent discoveries of minerals containing
tantalum In Wetsern Australia. As
long ago as 1894 tantalum was found
at Bimberg, combined with niobium
and antimony. Later 1t was discovered
near the same place in combination
with iron. Quite recently combina-
ton Of 20 per cent tantalum and 30
per cent manganese has been found at
Wodgina. 1t occurs In blocks weighing
as much as 30 pounds.

which will prove as inconspicuous as
possible in the field. As means Of

uniform for infantry ranks with smoke
less powder. The German experiments
have demonstrated that the color which
comes nearest to making soldiers In
visible In an ordinary landscape is
gray-green. Simple gray, on the con-
trary, makes a very conspicuous uni
form amid the same surroundings. Ad-
ditional tests are to be made to deter
mine the best color for winter wear,
and especially amid snow-covered land
scapes.
The delicate measurements demand
ed by modern scientific processes and
machines have led to the invention OF
many instruments Of precision that sur
prise the uninitiated by their capabili-
ties, which are often based on extreme
ly simple principles. among these Is
a little apparatus recently put upon
the market in France for determining
the thickness, or, one might say, lack
Of thickness, of extremely thin plates,
wires and threads. The inventor likens
its action to that Of lever In which a
ray of light takes the place OF the beam.
Essentially the apparatus consists OF
two carefully ground plates in contact
with one another, the upper one being
attached to a movable arm. When an
object is placed between the edges of
the plates the upper plate is displaced
little in level, and the effect of this
displacement is magnlfied by reflected
ray of light which falls upon a gradu-
ated scale. Thus the most delicate
measurements of thickness are easily
and quickly made.

One Of the prettiest sights to be seen
in any of the parks that boast fountains
and water lilies is the bathing Of the
birds. The little fellows hop from one
lily pad to another until they find one
that dips enough to take on water, and
here, In the round, green, floating tub
provided by nature, they flutter and
flourish until the bath is accomplished.
It is sight of never-ending interest for
