SOLVES BIG PROBLEM
SUGAR CANE A SUBSTITUTE FoF
WOOD PULP.
Discovery That Has Made Glad the
Hearts of Paper Makers All
Over the World.

One of the greatest problems that
are brought before the mercantile
world for consideration as a result
of the rapid decrease in the timber
supply is the discovery of a fitting
substitute for wood pulp in the manu-
facture of paper A short time ago
We published report of the French
system u making paper pulp from
vines, says writer in the Chicago
Tribune. The latest suggestion, how.
ever. is the utilization of sugar cane,
and as far as II has been tested 1t has
appeared in the light of a genuine so
luton.
The planters in Trinidad have found
that they can add enormously to their
yearly profits by raising their cane
and treating it with the specific object
OF turning it into paper, with the
manufacture of sugar as a mere side
issue. The process which they have
now adopted makes it possible to use
all the fiber of the cane for paper and
at the same time to get more sugar
from it than by any of the old meth
DDS The United States consul al
Santiago, moreover, reports that the
manufacture of paper from the cane
lis exciting considerable interest and
some investment In all the sugar coun
try and an American company has in
stalled special machinery at Preston
on Tripe bay.
The machinery win separate the
pulp from the fiber. The water is
eliminated and the pulp and fiber dried
with all the elements of sugar still in
them. The pulp and fiber are handled
separately and the sugar extracted sc
that the fiber is not broken. High
grade paper can be made from the
fiber and from the pulp residue &
coarser product Is turned out which
has a commercial value, while the
quality of the sugar is in nowise af
fected.

Aluminium Coins obiectlonaLle.

The French government has been
considering for some time the sdop-
ton of aluminium money. but 1t has
finally rejected the proposition. Aft
er making a study of the weight of
money, it was concluded that the coinA
of lesser value were so cumbersome
that they were Objectionable in the
pockets on account of their weight,
The aluminium coins which were
struck for consideration were so elu-
sive that they slipped out of the peck
cts and through the fingers on all oc-
casions, and for this reason the coin
ers decided that there would be as
much opposition to their use as there
is now to the weighty PIECES A com
promise is to be effected, however, by
using a bronze aluminium alloy, which,
If adopted, will cut the weight of the
present coins In half.

A Russian chemist claims to have
solved the problem successfully of
sterilizing milk without altering its
ferments and antitoxins. An ordinary
boiling process or heating even to 81
degrees c. will make milk inert,
while the Russians method OF bring
ing it so rapidly to temperature of
so degrees C. that the ferments are
not altered is just as effective so
far as the thoroughness of the steri-
lization is concerned. It is done in
this manner: The milk il forced into
the heated vessel in the form OF a
spray which breaks it up into glob-
ules. 1t is at once condensed and
drawn off into a receiver to cool. An
air spray has no effect upon the char

MANY OTHER THINGS IN THE

1t may seem somewhat paradoxical
to say that girl may take too much

the girl who becomes SO wrapped up

occasion can she take a peep beyond
the narrow horizon that bounds It.
She work early and late until she is
practically nervous wreck, and is i'm
posed upon quite as matter of
course.
OF course, it Is a tr-uism that she
who wishes to succeed must put her
whole heart into her work. This is
self-evident But there is a sane and
safe level between neglecting ones
work and living for that and nothing
else. The good worker should also
be a good player, and above all she
should learn to drop her work when
she leaves the Office or schoolroom or
workshop, and learn to take an inter
