Tltaniun Steel.

Titanium steel rails for railroads
were first made experimentally in
1907 The results that they showed
led to their manufacture by several
steel companies in 1908, and during
1909. according to the Engineering
and Mining journal, their manufac-
ture entered upon the commercial
scale. Experiments on the New York
Central have confirmed those made
elsewhere in showing that these rails
wear several times as long as those
made of ordinary Bessemer steel, Ii
tanium has a great affinity for nitro
gen. and remains as an impurity IN
ordinary steel, the good effects OF an
alloy of titanium are ascribed to its
acting as a flux, thereby removing i'm
purities and increasing the solidity of
the steel The increased cost is put
at $3.50 per ton of rails.

SAPPHIRE FACTORY RUNNING.
Gem is Hard to Distinguish from the
Natural One.

There are fair prospects that the
cost of sapphires may fall in the near
future, says the Boston Globe. French
chemists have succeeded in producing
an artificial or synthetic" sapphire
which is said to be identical in COM
position, hardness, color effects and
other quantities with the natural
stone, from which II cannot be distin-
guished by physical or chemical tests.
Natural sapphires of the finest quality
sell for 500 to 5000 a carat while the
equally beautiful manufactured article
can be sold at less than $5 a carat,
and no one will be able to tell the diff
ference between them.
Some years ago when a process of
making artificial rubies was discov-
cred, the ruby market was demoral-
lied for time, but the natural stones
later regained their prestige, and they
now cost more than diamonds.

The Jerboa's Cold STORAGE.

We knew that the jerboa was a
wonder, for we had in our minds
Browning's picture of him amusing
outside his sand house when the
music of David had weight with him:
There are none such as he for won
der, half bird and half mouse!
Major Stanton, at the Colonial In
stitute. London, filled in the picture.
The jerboa in the arid parts of the
Soudan lives through the drought on
preserved melons. He preserves them
by burying them in sand, biting of
the melon just as it is ripe and dig
gng away the sand from under it so
that it sinks below the level of the
ground. The wind then covers it up;
so the jerboa keeps his larder from
the hot sun. One jerboa will bury
forty melons in a season.

Llnooln,s stranns Woolnn.

Lincolns wooing and wedding are
of so peculiar a nature that they de-
serve notice in the annals of his re-
markable life, as throwing a side-light
upon one aspect of his character with
which the general public is wholly un-
familiar. This peculiarity can only be
explained by his disordered state of
mind when he became acquainted with
Miss Mary Todd in 1899. His woOing
was a series of morbid misgivings as
the force of his affections, of alternate
ardor and GOODNESS, advances and
Withdrawals, and every variety of
strange language and freakish behavi-
or. continued until the appearance of
his omnipresent political rival, Doug
las. in the field of love gave it the
much needed matrimonial impetus.
But when. after several months of
courtship, the wedding day arrived,
the bride waited vainly amid her silks
and bowers for the recalcitrant lover.
Friends discovered him on the NOR
row, hidden in an out-of-the-way cor
ner, if not insane, at least sunken in
one of those absorbing fits Of de.
spondent gloom from which he suffer
ed at that time. Months later, when
he was quite recovered, the wedding
took place; this time with much less
ostentation, thanks to the former ridi-
culous performance.

Physique of Young Japan.

Rumors have been rife that the
constitution of Young Japan is degen-
Grating year after year says the Eibun
Tsushinsha,. but they are firmly de-
MED by the authorities, who are of
the opinion that according to the re-
ports of the physicians of conscripts
both constitution and weight are show
ing an upward tendency on the whole,
and there is not bit of cause to justi-
fy the rumors.
This must be the boon of compul-
sorry education, only the prevalence
of several diseases and of trachoma is
true and indeed alarming, and on
this account every year a great many
young men are disqualified for the ser.
vice; but the authorities reassure US
that the physique of Young Japan is
never on the decline.

Pontius plate.

History is silent regarding the last
days and manner of death of Pontius
PLATE. Some claim that he killed
himself; others that he was beheaded
by Nero. Another tradition banishes
him to Vienne, on the Rhone, where
singular monument is called "Pontius
Pilates Tomb" Still another has it
that he sought to hide his sorrows on
the mountain beside Lake Lucerne.
now called Mount Pilatus, and that
there. after spending years in its re-
cesses, in remorse and despair he
plunged into the lake which occupies
its summit. All OF this, of course, is
pure guess work, and it is safe to
say that concerning the place or man
ner of the famous Tor infamous) Pro-
curator's death We know absolutely
nothing.

Congressman John Dalzell of Penn
sylvania, chairman of the new commit
tee on rules of the national house Of
representativ is well equipped by ex-
perience and training for the duties of
his new position. Mr.. Dalzell repre-
sents Pittsburg and has served contin-

The members of the new committee
take rank as follows: Dalzell Of Penn

city in 1915. but he has lived in Pitts
burg since he was two years old. He
received college education, being
graduated from Yale in 1865. He stud
led law and two years later was admit
ted to the bar. He soon developed
great adaptability for the profession
and advanced rapidly. AT the time of
his first election to congress he was
partner of John II. Hampton in one of
the most successful law firms in Pitts

woMEN's WORK IN eANks-
Some Play Part In Getting and Han
dIino Feminine Patronage.

In addition to the stereotyped du'
ties usually performed by men In
bank many women have made new
positions for themselves. some as
managers of women's departments,
where they explain carefully and pa
tiently the cries of banking to
other women. TO whose minds any
thing that pertains to finance seems
quite as puzzling as the black arts.
Such woman. says the Bookkeep-
er. must know thoroughly every detail
of banking, for her duties will cover
a wide feld-from making out check
for some dear old lady to explaining
the uses of letter of credit to par
ty of school teachers contemplating
their first trip abroad.
Other women have taken upon
themselves the work of making per-
sonal canvass of the tenements for
the savings of the poor. thereby ac-
complshing in addition to their duties
a very practical sort of charity in
teaching those who most need such
instruction something of the difficult
art of saving.

Bad Handwriting.

Every man who has his living to
earn or any work in the world to do
ought to be made to understand that
if he does not write legibly at least,
if not beautifully, it is entirely his own
fault. and that if he is made to suffer
for it he has only himself to blame.
The pestilent theory that bad writing
is the sign of a great mind ought to
receive no countenance from men of
common sense. 1t is sometimes, no
doubt. the result of extreme pressure
of business; but in most cases it is
the sign either of bad training or of
a contemplate perversity in fashion
or of a careless and unstable disposi-
tion which will display itself sooner
or later in things much more impor-
tant than handwriting. In no case is
it to be commended; in only few cases
is it to be even excused.

Microscopic Measurement.

The measurement of microscopic
objects is done by rulings on glass,
which are produced by wonderfully
delicate machines. These rulings are
constructed so as to accurately divide
an inch or any other unit of measure
Ilent into any desired number of
parts, as, for instance 1-100 of an inch.
or IL 900 of an inch, or even 10000
of an inch. The finest rulings thus
far produced by any of the machines
are at the rate of something like 20O,-
600 to the inch Some idea of the
closeness of the ruled lines can be OBJ
tanned from considering that 1000
such lines would occupy only the
space included in the thickness OF a
sheet of ordinary writing paper.

There are various methods, diplo-
matte or brusque, of notifying an un-
satisfactory employee of his dismis-
sal. The pink envelope, says a writer
in the Boston Record, is the recog-
nized messenger Of fate in many bust
ness offices, but there are other ways.
The most picturesque and original
of methods was that which Uncle
Jimmy" Gilbert used to use in his
printing office. When a new man
came. Uncle Jimmy drove nail in
the wall for him to hang his hat and
coat on.
Some morning the man would come
TO work and find the nail driven in
up to the head. He knew that he was
through then.

The EIYlna putchman.

The Flying Dutchman was a ship
which was sometimes visible from
various points of land, but more par
ticularly from the Cape of Good
Hope, in very stormy weather. The
story runs that her captain once swore
so fearful an oath that as a punish
ment for his blasphemy he was con-
demned to beat about the oceans un-
til the day Of judgment. The Flying
Dutchman was never known to get
into port. and was generally seen sail
ing, under full canvas, before a strong
wind. The myth is generally under
stood to have had its origin in the
watersprout. which in the distance re-
sembles a sailing vessel.

A huae EIYlna Fish.

A hying-fish measuring II IA inches
from tip of nose to tip of tail came
aboard the steamship Kaipara, alight-
ing on the deck 20 feet above the wa
ter when the vessel was 80 miles north
of Teneriffe. The fish was seized and
cooked. Mr.. c. Howard Tripp, who
was aboard. says it was the largest
fiying-fish that he has ever handled,
although he has studied them for
years. He remarks that the largest
species seem always to be the longest
fiiers. The longest flight of flying
fish that he has observed covered
about 400 yards.
