mining Good from Bad Explained.

powder. through exposing 1t to tho
fumes Of weak acetic acid and carbonio
acid gas; this powder is then ground
and mixed with linseed oil. making a
thick paste, in which form it Is packed
and sold for painting purposes. Tho
painter thins it down to the proper
consistency for application by the ad.
dition of more linseed oil.
The above refers, of course. to pure,
genuine White Lead only. Adulterated
and fake White Lead" Of which there
are many brands on the market, 10

containing only percentage OF white
lead; sometimes no White Lead at all;

chalk, and similar cheap substances
are used to make bulk and initiate the
appearance of pure White Lead.
There Is, however, positive test by
which the purity or impurty of White
Lead may be proved or exposed, be-
fore painting with it.
The blow-pipe flame will reduce
pure white lead to metallic lead. II

something else was there besides
white lead.

this blowpipe test, and that you may
make the test yourself in your own
home, they will send free upon re-
quest a blow-pipe and everything else

These figures represent savings in
state banks and trust companies and
take no account of sums in national
banks. The latter institutions do not
have savings accounts, but sums are
placed as regular deposits subject to
check For this reason it is impossi-
bic to estimate what proportion of the
deposits In national banks represents
savings. In all national banks savings
deposited take the form of certificates
0f deposit or regular deposit accounts
and it is hard to determine just what
part OF the aggregate is savings
money.
