MAKING OF GOLD
LEAF LONG PROCESS

Gold leaf, Of which such large quantities
are used by picture-frame makers. as well
as by other trades, Is made as follows.
says the Canadian Painter and Decora-
tor:
An alloy of the desired color having
been formed, the gold is melted in a
crucible at a temperature well above the
fusion point. II is then cast into an in
got and fattened by rolling between a
pair Of powerful steel rollers, into rib
bon one and half inches wide and 10
feet in length to the ounce.
After being fattened it is annealed and
cut into pieces of about six and half
grains each. apd placed between the leaves
Of "cutch" which is about half an inch
thick and three and half inches square,
containing about $50 leaves Of tough pa
per manufactured for the purpose. This
is beaten on for about % minutes with a
1-pound hammer, by which the gold is
spread TO the size Of the "cutch." Each
leaf is then taken out and cut in four
pieces.
These arc put between the leaves OF a
"shoder" four and half inches square
and three-quarters Of an inch thick. con-
tanning about 72O skins which have been
worn out I'm the mold" or finishing pro-
cess described later. The shoder requires
about two hours beating with a nine
pound hammer. Each leaf Is again cut IN
four pieces and placed between the leaves
of mold" composed of about $50 Of the
/ finest gold beaters' skins, five inches
square and three-quarters Of an inch
thick. the contents of one shoder filling
three molds.
The material has now reached the last
and most difficult stage Of the process.
During the first hour tho hammer Is al
lowed TO fall principally on tho center
OF the mold This causes gaping cracks
upon the edges Of the leaves. the sides of
which rapidly coalesce without leaving
any trace of the union after being beaten
upon. At the second hour, when the gold
is about the ono hundred and fifty thous-
andth part OF an inch in thickness. it for
the first time permits the transmission OF
light. II the gold is pure. or but slightly
alloyed. green rays pass through; when
highly alloyed with silver violet rays ap-
pear.
As rule about four hours beating with
a seven-pound hammer is required A
single ounce OF gold will at this stage

quarter inches square. The finished leave,

House by the Biiou Circuit Company this

first three days of The week have con-
cluded that the company is offering tho
people OF this city Christmas present in

plsylet I'm which Force and Williams will
make their appearance promises TO be a
thoroughly enjoyable little comedy. While

its fun producing qualities. Tho very con-

THIS is MY Goth BIRTHDAY"

Henry Jones, the we'll known auth
or, was born in New York, April Is,
lS43. In his eleventh year his fam.
lily went abroad, and for several
years he attended school in Switzer-
land and France. In 1860 he return.
ed to America and entered the Har-
ward Law School. When he had
finished his studies there, in 1869. he
again went to Europe and has since
resided the most Of the time in Eng
land, with occasional brief visits to
his home country Mr.. James has been
contributor to most of the Ameri-
can magazines, but his celebrity
rests mainly upon his novels, which
usually deal with the American as
found abroad He began as a con-
tributor to the magazines while a stu
dent at Harvard, but it was not until
1871 that his first book, Watch and
Ward" was published. Since then
his pen has produced more than
score of successful novels as we'll as
a number of volumes of charming es-
says.

PACKAGES DON'T GO.

There is now good reason for per-
sons with bundles to be afraid to go
home in the dark in New York. In
deed Police Commissioner Bingham
has issued an order to his minions OF
the law instructing them to arrest all
persons seen carrying bundles late at
night. The order is not directed
against the person carrying home pro-
visions for an early breakfast. but as
a result of the latest fashion among
thieves of wrapping up their plumber
in neat bundles and strolling past po-
licemen in perfect safety. So far the
new process has not resulted in the
capture Of any criminals. but it has
brought about the capture of a num-
Der of perfectly innocent persons and
may even result in international com
plications. Several hundred loaves of
bread. beefsteaks and the like have in
vain been declared contraband by the
police, until the merchants in districts
where workers 60 home late threaten
to bring suit on the ground that their
trade is being ruined The interna-
tional complication was added this
week when a policeman stopped a
British citizen late at night and took
him and the bundle he was carrying
to the nearest station house. Exami-
nation there revealed the fact that
the bundle contained hat which had
just been purchased and had also been
badly damaged through its rough sell
zure by the officer of the law. The in
dignant Englishman threatens to take
the matter up through his local coun,
sci unless he is furnished with new
hat. Altogether the police seem to
have tackled ticklish job in attempt
ing to stop persons from going home
with packages at night, unless they
be Of the liquid kind.

GrDDY GIRLS CLUB.

What is in, many respects the most
curious club on record has just been
organized in New York 1t is com.
posed Of women--in which there is
nothing odd The novel feature, how
ever, is due to the requirement of ad-
mission to membership under which
an applicant to establish eligibility
must prove that she is at least ninety
years Of age. While such a declara-
ton Is contrary to the general prac-
tice Of the weaker sex, according to
popular opinion, the club has already
membership of 40 with applications
on file from nearly 100 additional per-
sons The total age Of the 40 women
who now compose the club member
ship is 1924, or an average of less
than o5 years each. No other club in
the country. it is believed can come
anywhere near reaching this record.
The president Of the organization
Acknowledges to us years and is still
able to be about. Her nearest compe-
titor Is seven years younger while the
three next are aged l07 years, 100
years and los years, respectively. The
youngest member is a mere girl OF
only 81 years, who viii have to wait
nine years before being able TO sit on
the board Of directors, the require
ment for eligibility to that Office be-
ing a full century Of life.
